The Case Of Susan Cox Powell

The disappearance of Susan Cox Powell is a case full of dark, shocking twists that may reveal what happened to her. At a young age, Susan Cox met and married Josh Powell. The couple moved from their small town in Washington to another in Utah, and proceeded to have two children: Charlie and Braden Powell. On December 7, 2009, the boys did not show up to daycare. Worried, a worker at the daycare called the Powells, and then later the police. Josh returned home with the two boys later that day, but Susan was nowhere to be found. He said that they had taken their children camping in the middle of the night and didn’t know where Susan could be.

Susan’s worry for her safety and Josh’s weak alibi both lead many to believe Josh Powell was

After returning to his home, Josh was seen thoroughly cleaning his car and items in his house. Additionally, during his police interviews, he showed no urgency to help the officers locate his missing wife and never asked questions about what was being done to find her. This odd behavior continued even after he was released by the police, for he rented a car and drove 807 miles, disappearing for 18 hours. Then, when family and friends began setting up events like a candlelight vigil and search initiatives, Josh rarely ever showed up or tried to get involved. It is extremely odd behavior for Josh to show little interest or involvement in searching for his missing wife and the mother of his kids if he had nothing to do with her disappearance.
