Posted — UpdatedA special episode of Dr. Phil featuring an interview with the parents of Shanann Watts will air on WRAL-TV on Monday afternoon.
In the pre-recorded interview, which airs at 3 p.m. on Monday, Shanann's father, Frank Rzucek, shares emotional testimony, including what he knows about the murders of his daughter and granddaughters.
Rzucek talked to Dr. Phil about the moments before Shanann's murder and about the gruesome scene his granddaughter witnessed.
“When [Shanann' had come home, there was a little bit of an argument," Rzucek told Dr. Phil. "They went away. They were supposedly intimate. They went to sleep. He got up for work...went downstairs. He came back up and the argument, I guess, started all over again with her saying she knows he was cheating on her...With that, he jumped on her and strangled her.”
Rzucek also remarked on the part of Chris Watts' interview where he admitted that his oldest daughter, Bella, saw him dispose of Shanann's body.
"He wrapped her in a blanket. At that time, Bella walked into the room and asked him, 'What was going on with mommy?' And he said, 'She's sick. We've got to take her to the doctors,'" said Rzucek.
Rzucek went on to tell Dr. Phill that Chris took Shanann downstairs and put her in his truck in the garage.
The full interview and episode airs on WRAL-TV at 3 p.m.
