I was watching the news tonight and heard that Josh Powell is going trying to sell his home. It appears he wants to move to a gated community in South Hill, an area near Puyallup to live with his father.
Later I checked the internet to discover that just yesterday there was a bit of a dusty up between Josh's brother and Tim Peterson a a member of the same LDS church ward that the Powells attend.
It appears he tried to be supportive of Joshua at first. Then he learned that Joshua Powell planned to sell his West Valley City house and pack his belongings for a permanent move to his hometown of Puyallup, Wash., Peterson grew angry and drove to the Powells' home Wednesday to retrieve a playground set he had given the family.
Peterson allegedly said to Josh's brother, "This playground was for Susan and the kids and for their enjoyment. I said, she's not here anymore and you guys don't appear to be looking for her. So just in case you haven't noticed, Susan's gone"
Peterson had been providing marriage counseling to Susan and Joshua previously but they eventually stopped seeing him. Peterson says he encouraged Susan to leave Joshua because he was an energy suck.
When Peterson finally received permission to retrieve the playground equipment his truck got caught in the mud in the front yard and the police were called.
According to Peterson he went by the Powell home two days after Susan was reported missing. Peterson says he observed severe "wind burn" on the back of Joshua Powell's hands and watched as Joshua Powell kept applying lotion to them as they talked in Peterson's front room.
Peterson said his wife asked Joshua Powell about Susan's whereabouts and Powell replied "Well, it's not like I stabbed her."
Where is Susan? The boys deserve that answers. Her parents and friends deserve the answers. Susan deserves peace. She deserves justice. I am still praying that a miracle happens and Susan is found safe and well but of course as the days go by the probability seems more bleak.
One more thing, when I retrieved the video for this post I noticed a post from someone called fleetingdays. This person said "Josh needs help. Maybe, a fund could be set up to help him with attorney fees and money for the move. Susan might be in Washington state."
Is this person kidding? Josh needs help but a lawyer won't be able to help him. God knows what happened and God's memory is long. There is no parole in eternity. I'm not advocating doing something to Joshua but he should realize that our stay here on earth is only temporary. Josh needs help because his two sons will be asking him, "What happened to Mom? Where's Mom? Why did Mom leave us? Didn't Mom love us?"
If you have ANY information please contact the the West Valley City Police at 801-840-4000.
