Yes, amazing how many times they can "break their silence"

Especially when they were never silent, at least mum and sissy.

I would love to be a fly on the wall in the DA and the defense attorneys offices right now.

We'd love to be an entire flock of flies in there!!! Swarm, group, cadre, whatever...

You know all the responsibility for these heinous murders has to rest squarely on CW’s shoulders. But I have to wonder what effect his mother and sister’s dehumanizing comments about SW for years contributed to CW’s ultimately expendable view of SW and his girls with her. They didn’t even attend his own wedding to SW over their hatred of her. Normally, I would not even make this observation, but since his parents think it is fine to point out how everything is SW’s fault and their child was perfect before she came along, I am motivated to put it out there that they may have contributed to their son’s ultimate hatred of and expendable view of SW and what he might have seen as extensions of her, their girls. Just IMO.

I think it absolutely helped him feel justified to have affairs. His parents did not support his marriage or his choice of a wife, so he didn't have to justify to them, that he decided to stray from his vows. They probably applauded his decision.

Anywhere the Watts clan goes, the flies follow. It must have something to do with their BS.

 

[NuttMegg]

I don't get it. What if ma/pa do get sm crowd funded or something to get a new !awyer, how can new atty contact cw if cw isn't even communicating with the parents? Can a new atty just go & contact his pds?

 

[Pi Thoughts]

I think that she is of the firm belief that she can bully anyone into anything.

Not us websleuthers

 

[PommyMommy]

You are right. That is quite a serious allegation, that a defense team would destroy mitigating evidence in favor of their client, accused of multiple felony murders. This family better step back and take a deep breath before this backfires big time.

According to the Watts', CW's attorneys...

• Coerced him into pleading guilty
• Railroaded him
• Did not represent his best interests
• Destroyed evidence

You know I love lists.

MOO

I was going to say that I doubt the family was aware of it at the time, but he may not have kept it a secret from them. I remember one of the VI's saying that she was aware of it from the beginning.

 

[SaguaroSpirit]

Oh, they tried.

AAAAAAAAnd... it didn't work.

 

[PommyMommy]

I imagine not even Monday’s sentencing will quiet CWs parents.

Hopefully we're not going to hear them bashing the judge. MOO

Forbid him to talk to his family! Shut his family down the one time he was allowed to speak with them and the mother questioned the plea!

This thought had crossed my mind. That we would hear them saying the judge is bias blah blah blah

 

[MassGuy]

I actually would love to see them do that. It would show the world the level of their derangement.

We just might see a Contempt of Court charge on Monday.

 

[katydid23]

I always thought maybe they didn’t come out of respect since their son did this and they didn’t want to cause a possible scene, even though I think SW family would have been gracious. However, now I’m definitely rethinking the reason they didn’t come.

I agree with you. My initial feeling was same as yours. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed they were being sensitive and respectful of her family and giving them space to grieve.

But I too, have to rethink that. They didn't attend the wedding or the children's birthdays, so it seems more like it was just part of that same pattern and more disrespect than it was a sign of respect. JMO

 

[MassGuy]

Haaaa. They might think that would allow them to share a cell with their son.

Hopefully no one tells them that it doesn’t work like that.
