After murdering their pregnant wives (and two young children in Watts’ case) Chris Watts and Scott Peterson both appeared in the media and cooperated with the police.

They appealed to the “killer” and begged to reporters that their wives/children return home safely.

My question is - how? How can you murder your wife/children, hide the bodies, and then put on this performance? Obviously they think they are smarter than the police/media and won’t get caught. Is it narcissism, god complex, insanity?

We see this across the board in other murder cases, where the killer goes on to be very cooperative with the investigation/search. What I want to know is, how do you commit the act and then continue on like you are innocent? Like you actually want your victims to be found?
