My observations about Josh Powell's web site
http://susanpowell.org
1.) None of Susan's missing posters are displayed;
2.) Descriptive information about Susan Powell is not provided such as height, weight, hair color/length, age, distinguishing marks, jewelry, etc.;
3.) On the home page, the largest font is used for SusanPowell.org and the tiniest font is used to request viewers to contact the West Valley Police Department;
4.) There are no links to media, photo galleries, videos, etc. which would help to inform a visitor about the circumstances of Susan's disappearance;
5.) There is no timeline of events or reference to any efforts made to find Susan Powell;
6.) Visitors are not given suggestions as to what they can do to help find Susan Powell;
7.) The photos are few and the quality of the images is extremely poor;
8.) There is no way to contact the webmaster;
9.) There are no links on this website to Friends and Family of Susan Powell, the West Valley City Police Department, downloadable Susan Powell missing fliers or the SusanPowellCoxFoundation.org site;
10.) The wordage on the site is in present tense as if Susan is not missing and Josh is presently enjoying "taking Susan out and watching movies together";
11.) This web page wants visitors to believe this site is the only source of new photos, videos and Susan's words yet countless other people possess photos and videos of Susan Powell including Judy and Chuck Cox;
12.) The site states: "These sweet boys will need your support both in terms of prayers and in terms of any other support you would like to offer" yet does not provide any suggestions as to ways interested parties can offer "any other support" by providing suggestions like passing out fliers, etc.
13.) The site states: "They regularly play with their friends. And they get lots of personal attention to their education and other needs" which was designed to lead readers to believe the boys needs are being fulfilled. Why is it the boys can play with "friends" who they have just met, if in fact this is indeed a true statement, but are NOT allowed to play with their relatives such as Grandma and Granpa Cox and their cousins?
14.) "Her favorite hobby is to socialize with friends. She holds nothing back when socializing with friends." I didn't realize socializing with friends is a hobby. I thought hobbies were things like photography, gardening, cooking, knitting, stamp collecting, etc. This should have said, "Susan's favorite thing to do is socialize with her friends above and beyond spending time with her husband Josh Powell and her children, Charlie and Braden." This statement has a hidden meaning whether the composer realized this or not!
15.) This web site is a pathetic attempt to make Josh Powell look like he is the best, smartest, most talented, loving, kind, appreciative, supportive, educated, capable, normal husband and father when in fact his actions prove the opposite to be true.
16.) The site states: "Most of all, we would like this site to be uplifting." Friends and Family of Susan Powell Facebook group states the same thing. Is this a mocking statement? What would be uplifting to me would be if this site was an attempt to get important information about The Disappearance of Susan Powell out to the public, something this site has failed miserably at! Who is uplifted by Josh Powell's boasting about what a wonderful guy he is? Certainly not me! Who gives a flying rat's *advertiser censored* that he has a Quick Books certificate? What does that have to do with The Disappearance of Susan Powell? What does Josh's claim that he is a master carpenter have to do with anything? WHO CARES? I sure don't and I don't think anyone but he truly cares!
17.) This site states: "Please remember that we need your help in finding Susan." This is an UNDERSTATEMENT! Josh Powell has done NOTHING to find his missing wife. Apparently he expects everyone else to do HIS JOB! I find it PATHETIC he is REMINDING the site viewers he needs help in finding Susan. He sure can remember he needs to ask people to help find Susan but can't remember to look for her himself! And, I find it VILE that his father and mother and siblings, other than Jennifer Graves, have done NOTHING to help find Susan Powell! Yes, I wrote VILE: Disgusting, repulsive, sickening, etc. They all make me ILL!
18.) This site states: "She can produce any look or style desired. She can even do her own hair and frequently does." Is Josh trying to suggest that Susan can easily change her appearance and this is why she hasn't been found?
19.) This site states: "Susan attended Gene Juarez Academy in Washington state. With scholarships and support from her parents, Chuck and Judy Cox, her full tuition was paid." I sense resentment here. Is Josh saying, "Susan was so spoiled that her parents paid whatever tuition was not covered by her scholarship, unlike me who had to take out a bank loan"? Doesn't this man know that thousands of people are aware he filed for bankruptcy and RIPPED of the lending institutes who so generously lent him money to attend college? GIVE ME A BREAK! He wants people to think he had to pay for his college education, unlike Susan who had her fees and tuition handed to her on a silver platter. (More resentment?)
20.) The photos of Susan make her look like she was a homely, plain woman when in fact she was stunningly beautiful. Why would Josh post the most unattractive photos of Susan when he has thousands of photos of her? (I say thousands because there are freeware programs that will extract images from videos.) Did Josh resent it when Susan got all dressed up to go out in public? Was he saying, "You all think she is so pretty? Well, this is what I had to look at most of the time when she was at home?" Why would he DELIBERATELY post the photo of Susan with the foil in her hair rather than a more attractive photo? All of us who DESPISE JP for the CREEP he is would JUMP at the opportunity to post photos of him which make him look exceptionally ugly because of how we feel about him. IS THIS WHY JOSH POSTED THE UNATTRACTIVE PHOTOS OF SUSAN? I say the answer is a big, huge YES!
21.) The site says: "Many people would offer tips and they would usually reimburse her for products they used." Is Josh hinting at the fact that Susan was earning money as an unlicensed cosmetologist in an attempt to make her look like she was illegally earning money under the table? I sense feelings of resent when he wrote "they would usually reimburse her for products they used" and Susan never held back when it came to purchases at the beauty supply". Since Josh was in charge of Susan's spending, I have to wonder how she was able to purchase products at the beauty store and am suspecting she had to get the money to buy the products from her "clients" to buy the products! I really can't see Josh allowing her to freely spend or being "always been happy to support Susan's efforts in any way he could" when he wouldn't allow her to buy fruits and vegetables or new shoes for the boys. This sounds like a bunch of BULL if you ask me! I suspect there were many arguments about the money Susan wanted to spend at the beauty supply! In fact, I would suspect many of Susan's friends have stories to tell about how Susan couldn't do their hair because Josh wouldn't let her buy the products she needed!
22.) The site says: "During most of 2009, Josh was working on construction projects around the home and with the children. Josh planned to continue working until Susan's salon and the basement were finished." For a whole year Josh was working on construction projects around the home? WHAT CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS? Hello? If he really wanted Susan to have a beauty salon in the basement, a whole year would have been plenty to complete the project! Give me a fricking break! The house was a NEW house! It's not like they were living in a fixer upper!
23.) The site says: "And as an expert woodworker, Josh was also working with Susan on plans to build a classy styling station for Susan - a station complete with lights, plumbing, and all the features a cosmotologist would want." For the money he spent on a bicycle motor ($1,500.00), he could have bought all the wood, plumbing and electrical supplies he needed. GIVE ME A BREAK! If he wanted to build this classy styling station for Susan, he would have had it done several years ago! Yet another attempt to make him look good but I am not buying this BS! Are you? Did he expect Susan to work as a stock broker all week then be a hair stylist in the evenings and during the weekend? If he really wanted Susan to be able to stay home with her children, he would have had that basement done years ago! He was just too lazy to do the work!
24.) In respect to turning the basement into a classy hair salon, Josh wrote:
"Most of these plans have been put on hold for the time being." If this FREAK really thought Susan was just lost and was coming home, he would have stayed in their West Valley City home, finished that project with the help of his ward friends, hunted night and day for a new job, etc. How about telling the truth here Josh? All you do is come up with manic ideas that you never follow through with?
To be continued tomorrow.
