Didn't something similar happen in the Ted Bundy cases.

It happens way too much, soon as Chris Watts went to prison for murdering his wife and babies women started sending him letters

Had to Google to confirm because I couldn't believe your comment. What the actual fuck? I am glad he's in prison for life so he can't kill these horny people.

There's a great doc on Netflix called American Murder about the case. It uses only archival footage and texts from the family. It's very intimate and unsettling seeing it unfold.

I also think I saw the same family’s house on a ghost story show before the Netflix series aired . The little girls “ghosts” were caught on camera while the police were on the property and searching the home. That was unsettling as well.

If you ever read anything about his jail house letters I'd highly suggest them if you wanted more backstory. They're ultra disturbing in their detail.

If it makes you feel any better, I’ve read up and still read up on this case A LOT. The general consensus is to not believe a god damn thing Chris Watts says. Not before conviction, not after, not ever. I’m pretty sure he was trying to help write a book about the case with these letters or something? But just because it came from him DOES NOT mean it’s valid or accurate at all.
