How does a "normal" husband and father commit an unimaginable crime without a single red flag?

Emily Compagno sits down with licensed psychotherapist and author Lena Derhally to deconstruct the case of Chris Watts. In August 2018, Watts murdered his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters, Bella and Celeste.

Lena, author of “My Daddy is a Hero: How Chris Watts Went from Family Man to Family Killer,” provides an expert deep dive into the psychological profile of a failed psychopath and a covert narcissist. They explore the "slow-build" snap, the role of his mistress, the disturbing details of his confessions, and the terrifying reality of the "discard phase" in narcissistic abuse.

The Fox Nation special, 'The Watts Murders: Phases of Deterioration,' is now available.
