E-mails from Susan Powell told of marriage struggles

Friends of Susan Powell turn over correspondence from 2008 to W.V. police


WEST VALLEY CITY — E-mails sent last year by Susan Powell to friends told of marriage struggles between her and her husband to the point that she seemed to be in fear of him.

Several of her friends, who wished to remain anonymous, confirmed to the Deseret News that they had turned over to police e-mails that she sent them in June and July of 2008, the point when all friends agreed the Powells' marriage was at its worst.

One friend confirmed that in one of the e-mails, Susan Powell said she was afraid Josh Powell might kidnap her two boys, divorce her or worse.

The friend said Susan Powell had talked to her one day about something she had written and left in her desk at work.

"She had mentioned about writing something so that no one would ever think she committed suicide. She said it would be so her boys would know that she would never kill herself, because she would never leave her boys alone," the friend said.

Cell phone, notes could provide answers into Susan Powell disappearance

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4 News) - A prepaid cell phone Josh Powell purchased at Walmart could provide details as to where Powell went while racking up hundreds of miles in a rental car. A note has also surfaced that was written about a year and a half ago. Susan said if she ended up dead it "wouldn't be suicide".

Tim Petersen, Powell's neighbor tells ABC 4 news that Powell came over to their house on Wednesday evening, just days after Susan disappeared and told them about a new phone he bought and asked for a ride to pick up his minivan.

Neighbors Say Husband Possibly Involved in Disappearance of Susan Powell

WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah - Neighbors of Susan Powell are now saying they believe her husband, Josh, was somehow involved in her disappearance. The 28-year-old woman was reported missing on Dec. 7, 2009 when she failed to appear at work and her children were not dropped off at day care. Josh, the only person of interest in the case, told police he took his two sons, ages 2 and 4, camping that day at about 12:30 a.m. in subfreezing temperatures and returned in the evening.

One family friend of the Powell's, Jim Peterson, said Josh came over just days after his wife was reported missing, acting very odd, avoiding any conversation about Susan and talked about some new clothes that he purchased.

Police work around the clock on Powell case

As the family and friends of Susan Powell pray for her safe return, police officers and lab technicians are pressing for clues about where she may be.

Detectives at the West Valley City Police Department have been putting in hundreds of hours to figure out what happened to the 28-year-old mother of two who has been missing since Dec. 7.

......................snip............................

The department has its own crime lab that can do some of the trace analysis needed to process a crime scene, but the

West Valley City lab has been hindered by absences. The lab has five forensic technicians, but two of those people are assisting the U.S. government in Iraq and one person recently resigned to take another job, McLachlan said.

So, much of the analysis falls to the state crime lab.

Jay Henry, laboratory director for the Utah Bureau of Forensic Services, says his lab has been pretty busy since mid-October, and the holiday season just seems to be getting busier. But high-profile cases don't add more to the workload than any other case.

"Sometimes depending on the urgency of a situation, we'll adjust our schedules and move our other cases around," he said.

The average turnaround time to get results on blood work and stain identification is two weeks, and for DNA analysis, it's another 30 to 45 days, he said
