Susan Cox Powell pt. 4

from Gimme the Creeps · host Abigail & Daniela

When Susan goes missing on December 7, 2009, all eyes are on Josh Powell. Together with the family and friends of Susan, the West Valley P.D. gather enough information to make Josh the main suspect, however, circumstantial evidence isn't enough.  It appeared that every tactic used by the police was circumvented by Josh as frustrations grow with his lack of cooperation.  Jennifer Graves volunteers to wear a wire and visit the now roommates, Josh and Steve. And when Steve is questioned about his and Susan's past, he paints Susan as a sex-starved woman who was in love with him. It seems the only witnesses may have been Susan's two boys, but with Charlie being the only one to really speak about it and being he was only 4, the police can't help but question whether or not he is a reliable witness. A segment of Charlie's first interview can be heard here, where he states "Mommy stayed where the crystals are." The episode closes with a 2019 update on Josh's whereabouts after taking his minivan back from the police with a tracker on it.
