Dark Taurus: Family Annihilators

from Signs of Danger: A True Crime Astrology Podcast · host Jillian Clemmons

On August 13, 2018, Christopher Watts loaded his pregnant wife's body into his work truck. He had strangled her in their bed an hour earlier. Their two daughters — Bella, four, and Celeste, three — were also in the truck. One of them may still have been alive. He drove forty-five minutes to an oil worksite, buried his wife in a shallow grave, and pushed his daughters' bodies through eight-inch hatches into separate oil battery tanks. Then he drove home. Texted his girlfriend about their future. Called the kids' school to unenroll them. And stood on his front porch and pleaded for his family's safe return. When investigators offered him lunch after his confession, he said yes. He ate pizza.Waneta Hoyt suffocated five of her children over a period of years and blamed each death on SIDS. She performed the grief of a devastated mother so convincingly — fainting at funerals, collapsing at gravesides — that the community left their own children in her care. She killed them when she was alone with them and never killed when someone was watching. When she finally confessed, she worked through each death step by step. Then she told the court at sentencing: God forgive all of you who done this to me.Leslie Demeniuk shot her four-year-old twin sons with a .357 Magnum four days after her divorce was finalized. Her confession acknowledged she had killed them to hurt her ex-husband. A fleeing four-year-old. A mother chasing him with a revolver.Episode 4 goes deep on the Taurus family annihilator — the dark Taurus who erases the family not in rage but in the cold logic of ownership. Three cases. The same mechanism underneath all of them. Eight warning signs, including the capstone: if you cannot own them, you cannot tolerate them existing outside your control.Featuring: Christopher Watts | Waneta Hoyt | Leslie Demeniuk.Sources: Wikipedia | Weld County District Attorney | FBI Behavioral Analysis | People | Murderpedia | New York court records | Florida court recordsThank you for liking, subscribing and sharing.
