So glad to meet you guys and so terribly sorry
for the circumstance. Thank you.
I wanna focus on Shanann and Bella and Celeste and Nico
and all of y'all.
You've been told what that confession contained, right?
Yes. Yes.
And there was information in there
that had to do with Shanann, correct?
Mhmm.
There's so much in there that you hated to hear, right?
When she had come home,
there was a little bit of an argument.
That went away, they supposedly were intimate,
they went to sleep, he got up for work at four or 4:30.
Then the argument I guess started all over again,
her saying that she knows he was cheating on her,
to the effect of, he would never see his kids again
and with that, he jumped on her and he strangled her
and said he couldn't take his hands off her
because he felt like something was holding him there.
Our daughter watched her husband kill her.
I mean.
While he was wrapping her. And with that time,
Bella walked in the room and asked him what was going on
with mommy and he said she was sick,
we got to take her to the doctor's.
He put her in a truck, put the two children in a truck,
drove himself his 45 minutes, whatever it took him
to get to the well site.
And they were sleeping on and off on their way.
Took Shanann out of the truck, put her down,
when done doing that, he came back to the truck,
took Celeste's yanky blanket and smothered her.
In front of Bella.
Took her up to the well, dropped her in,
and then he came back to the truck,
and Bella had said to her father that you're not gonna do
that to me, what you did to Cece, are you, daddy?
And then he took her life.
That's why she fought and had the cuts.
Yeah, well she fought back to him.
'Cause she knew what was happening.
It's worse than we even thought, we thought the worst
was what we heard already, you know,
we had no idea it was way worse than this.
We were hoping it happened in her sleep or something.
Not that a four-year-old watches her sister get killed.
I am so very very sorry.
