Thanks, I wonder if they found any forensic evidence in the truck today?Per FBI Forensics, I don't think they are using Rapid DNA testing for potential crime scenes.

I looked it up. (My apologies if this has already been shared.)I may be wrong, but IIRC, the states that charge for 2 murders when a woman is pregnant, usually do so only when the woman is very far along, and the child is viable, if it was born at that time.
At least that is how I understood it.

Well he couldn't look anymore suspicious by doing that!

I looked it up. (My apologies if this has already been shared.)
State Laws on Fetal Homicide and Penalty-enhancement for Crimes Against Pregnant Women
Washington Wash. Rev. Code Ann. § 9A.32.060 declares that a person is guilty of manslaughter in the first degree when he or she intentionally and unlawfully kills an unborn quick child by inflicting any injury upon the mother of such child.
Currently, at least 38 states have fetal homicide laws: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. At least 29 states have fetal homicide laws that apply to the earliest stages of pregnancy ("any state of gestation/development," "conception," "fertilization" or "post-fertilization").
Did I read somewhere that her weight was 180? Surely he had help.

To be clear, I was referring to his girlfriend when I said she may have given him an ultimatum. If they have a long history together or were committed only to each other, she may have threatened to leave him if he did not cut all ties with KC. The prospect of his having a child with another women could mean that KC would continue to be in his life. IMOI would just be so surprised if KC gave him an ultimatum. She seemed very happy with the single mom route--she wanted to be a mom, not a wife, and there is a big difference IMO.
I'm not sure her mom would have accepted a serious relationship between these two, as one can see from her media statements about him. Speculating here, in response: I wonder if he knew she was pregnant. I wonder if he knew she was going to keep the baby. I wonder if he realized she was actually ecstatic about it and she may have said she wouldn't lie to his girlfriend about the father's identity--she may have said she hoped he would be a part of the baby's life. She may have mentioned an ultrasound and he might have lost it. He might have realized that he could not control her anymore.
She would not be the first pregnant woman who refused to be controlled by the wishes of the baby's father. He would not be the first father to kill her for deciding to keep a baby and be a mother, with or without him, to refuse to live a lie for his convenience. To want the world for her child... MOO.
Right, and in Washington it might not apply because KC was in the earlier stages of pregnancy. However, I mentioned earlier that Colorado also did not have charges that apply to the earlier stages but they were still able to charge Chris Watts for the death of his unborn child.I looked it up.

It would be especially hard to prove since KC never had the ultrasound. ImoThank you! ‘Quick’ sounds disturbingly subjective, unless it has a legal definition as a specific time of gestation.
Disturbing, because it’d be hard to prove, even in cases where it applied.
