Prosecutors filed a motion on September 13 asking the judge to urge Chris Watts to give them the necessary evidence including his DNA, fingerprints and palm prints

Prosecutors in Colorado are now demanding that Chris Watts, who has been accused of killing his pregnant wife and two young daughters, hand over samples of his DNA, fingerprints, palm prints, and photographs of his hands to help the investigation into the case that they are building against him. Prosecutors filed a motion on September 13 asking the judge to urge Chris to give them the necessary evidence.

The court is yet to rule on the motion and the defense has time till September 17 to respond to it. A source close to the case has said, "The prosecutors are working very carefully. They know they can’t make a single mistake."

According to an arrest affidavit that was made public by the Frederick police department, Chris had claimed that he had strangled Shanann in a rage after he saw her strangling Celeste through the baby monitor. Toddler Bella, according to the father, was lying sprawled on her bed already and looked to be bluish in color, PEOPLE reported.
