Susan Cox Powell (born October 16, 1981) was an American woman from West Valley City, Utah, who was last seen alive on December 6, 2009. On December 14, 2009, her husband Josh Powell was named a person of interest in the investigation, but he was never charged. On February 5, 2012, Josh Powell killed himself and the couple's two young sons, Charles Joshua Powell (b. January 19, 2005) and Braden Timothy Powell (b. January 2, 2007) in a murder–suicide after custody of the boys had been awarded to Susan Cox Powell's parents. On May 21, 2013, West Valley City police closed their active investigation into Susan Powell's disappearance. == Background == Susan Cox married Joshua Powell (b. January 20, 1976) at the Portland Oregon Temple in April 2001. In about 2004 they moved to Utah to be closer to Joshua's mother and sisters. They resided in West Valley City, Utah. Joshua had a bachelor's degree in business and worked for a number of different companies over the years.〔 Susan was a cosmetologist in Washington, and worked in banking after the family's relocation to Utah. Cox-Powell's emails to her friends indicated the presence of marital discord.〔Rogers M. ("In her own words: Susan Cox Powell wrote of fear in emails." ''Salt Lake Tribune'' April 28, 2012. Accessed january 15, 2014. )〕 Joshua Powell filed for bankruptcy in 2007, declaring over $200,000 in debts.〔Adams B. and McFarland S. ("Susan Powell case: Police take DNA from missing West Valley City woman's husband." ) ''Salt Lake Tribune'' December 6, 2009. Accessed January 15, 2014.〕 Friends attributed the Powells' marriage problems to both financial stress and Joshua's "very, very controlling" behavior. By 2008, Susan was expressing fears and frustrations about her marriage to friends. She recorded a video in July 2009 and wrote a secret will that included the statements "I want it documented that there is extreme turmoil in our marriage" and "If I die, it may not be an accident, even if it looks like one." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disappearance of Susan Powell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
