Authorities in Colorado want to take DNA samples from Christopher Watts as prosecutors continue to build a case against him for the murder of his pregnant wife and their two young daughters.
The Weld County District Attorney’s Office wants the judge presiding over the case to force Watts to provide fingerprints, palm prints, pictures of his hands, and other DNA-related evidence.
The request was made in a legal motion filed on Thursday, a copy of which was obtained by PEOPLE.
Watts was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of his 34-year-old wife, Shanann Watts, and their two daughters - Celeste, three, and Bella, four - at their home in Frederick, Colorado.
Christopher Watts is in court for his arraignment hearing at the Weld County Courthouse on August 21, 2018 in Greeley, Colorado
Watts was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of his 34-year-old wife, Shanann Watts, and their two daughters - Celeste, 3, and Bella, 4 - at their home in Frederick, Colorado
He is also charged with tampering with evidence for allegedly burying his wife in a shallow grave 35 miles from home and dumping his two daughters into a tank filled with crude oil.
If convicted, Watts faces the death penalty.
Authorities accuse Chris Watts or killing them after she returned from a business trip in the early morning hours of August 13.
A friend of Shanann who dropped her off at home from the airport alerted police after she did not respond to phone calls, according to the Coloradoan.
Watts told police that he and his wife argued ‘emotionally’ about separating on that morning.
He claims that his wife then strangled both of their children to death.

Watts claims he then strangled Shanann in a fit of rage.
He told authorities that after he told his wife he wanted to separate, he watched as she strangled Celeste while Bella was ‘blue’, her lifeless body in a bed nearby.
But investigators say Watts is lying. He was arrested on August 15 - one day before the bodies of his wife and their two children were found.
Watts is being held without bond in the Weld County Jail. He has yet to enter a plea.
‘The theory that she [Shan’ann] did it doesn’t hold any water,’ a source close to the investigation told PEOPLE.
‘There is absolutely no evidence that she killed her children.’
Meanwhile, Watts’ lawyers are asking the court to investigate whether prosecutors have leaked damaging information about their client to the press.
Prosecutors have denied the accusation.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
