Father of the two murdered daughters, Jason Sheats says his wife, Christy Sheats, spared his life because she ‘wanted him to suffer.’
Speaking to detectives, Jason said ‘he felt Christy wanted him to suffer,’ Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls told khou.com. ‘Christy knew how much he loved Taylor and Madison and how much they loved him.’
Killing his daughters on his birthday meant Jason ‘has to live with this will have to live the rest of his life with this horrible memory,’ Nehls said.
Jason also told detectives Taylor was fighting with her mum the say of the shooting. Christy wanted to ground Taylor, preventing her from seeing her finance. The couple had planned to wed on Monday.
Christy called a family meeting, and Jason said he thought she was going to tell the girls their plans to separate. Instead, she pulled out a gun and killed her daughters.
