Accused Killer Chris Watts Is Strip Searched By Investigators Hours Before His Arrest — See Photos

Earlier this week, Watts was reportedly transferred to a Wisconsin prison for “safety reasons.”

According to Radar Online, Chris, 33, got picked up from his Colorado cell by federal marshals late Monday night.

The outlet’s national correspondent, Nik Hatziefstathiou, said, “He is the most hated father in America. So no matter where they put him it’s going to be a tough ride for him.”

He added, “They don’t think that the state prison in Colorado has the resources to protect him and other prisoners for those who might want to target him.”

Prior to his transfer, Watts was reportedly on suicide watch at Weld County Jail. “He’s not doing well at all,” a source told People in September. “The gravity of the situation has hit him like a ton of bricks. Depression is setting in, and he’s despondent.”

Shan’ann Watts, 34, and their two daughters, Bella, 4, and Celeste, 3, were killed in August and dumped where Chris used to work.

During his sentencing, Watts’ father-in-law, Frank Rzucek, slammed him. “I trusted you to take care of them, not kill them,” he said. “And they also trusted you. You disgust me.”
