Susan Powell's parents take control of her Utah home

Susan Powell’s parents now have control of the home where the missing Utah mother was last seen more than two years ago.

Property records list Chuck and Judy Cox as "owners" of the 2,238-square-foot home on Sarah Circle in West Valley City after a Washington probate judge named them special administrators for their daughter’s estate under a provision for missing persons cases.

"Technically, Susan has never been declared dead," said Stephan Downing, one of the Washington attorneys representing the Coxes. "Everyone assumes she might not be alive, but even West Valley continues to assert that this is nothing more than a missing person’s investigation."

Using the order, the Coxes were able to get a Utah judge to change the home’s title about two weeks ago, Downing said.

Downing said a Washington judge also named the Coxes personal administrators for their grandsons’ estates. Josh Powell had insurance policies in his sons’ names worth $500,000, as well as $1 million policies in both his and his missing wife’s names. Those policies are now the subject of a court action between Josh Powell’s siblings and mother and the Coxes.

Since Susan is still legally alive did she inherit everything that was left behind from Josh and the boys?

There is some odd bickering in the comments section. People are complaining that this news story does not interest them, so why do they read and comment on it?
 
Good. I'm glad the Cox's were appointed owners of the home. This should P Steven Powell et family right off. It's great to see Susan's family finally taking the upper hand. It is long overdue.

It will be up in the air until the courts decide, since the insurance company requested the courts to make the determination. Josh had made some changes after Susan's disappearance, and IIRC Michael was listed on some of the policies...as well a small % to Alina., so it's between them, including Terrica, since she (& Steve???) would be the next of kin of JP's, and the grandchildren; and the Coxes,..because the Coxes are the next of kin on Susan's side. This is just sickening, because the lawyers will scoop up much, and the battle will be ugly. Ugh... Family members you trusted to the hilt can turn on dime....and it's just more psychological pain that will haunt on top of the lost loved one(s). :(
