Christopher Watts, the Colorado man who killed his pregnant wife and their two daughters in August, was sentenced Monday to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Watts received three consecutive life sentences on Monday after pleading guilty earlier this month to murder charges in the deaths of his wife, Shanann Watts, and their children, Bella, 4, and Celeste, 3. The plea deal also included one count of unlawful termination of a pregnancy, for the death of the couple's unborn child, and three counts of tampering with a deceased human body.

Prosecutors did not seek the death penalty in exchange for Watts’ guilty plea.

I really hate plea deals.
They do not serve justice.
We don’t have a justice system; we have a legal system.
This creep deserves to be impaled not housed for life.

He should be hung in public , think of the cruelty he inflicted . He will only commit more acts of evil while subsisting on our dime.

I understand how you feel, but even as it is I don't expect him to have a very pleasant life.

He needs 6000 volts and a whole lot of Watts.

Not in prison. He’s a coward who can only beat down on babies and pregnant women. If they don’t kill him ala whitey bulger the will make him a semen receptacle.

This animal kills his wife,2 children and an unborn baby and gets life in prison.Seems like life has suddenly got cheaper.

He should have got the death penalty.

He did! A killer of pregnant Women and kids don’t live long in the big house.

He won’t make it 3 years.

That’s my take. He may not survive in prison very long.

Yep, he should do us a favor and demand death immediately. Funny how the Left fights for assisted suicide, except for murderers.

That’s my thought; tho he may make it for 5 years. I don’t think Dahmer lived long after he was put in general population.

Looks like he made it for three years - but it has not been a happy three years. Apparently he is still in isolation 24/7 - even the prison guards hate him. If he is ever let into the general population, he'll be looking over his shoulder every minute.

Death penalty probably would have been kinder.

I think they had to farm this cockroach out to Wisconsin as for some reason or another the prisoners in Colorado were felt to be more likely to take out the trash.

Doesn’t make sense to me either but I think that’s what went down.
