How dumb are West Valley Police?

The case is now officially closed and the fact that they never arrested Josh Powell is just mind blowing. He had the absolute worst story ever!

-He takes his kids "camping" in the middle of the night during a snow storm on a Sunday night while his "wife is sleeping". He doesn't call into work that he won't be there. His only excuse is he thought it was Saturday night.

-He was having an affair with a prostitute months leading up to her disappearance

-Josh had his wife's phone with him and he had removed the SIM card.

-A drop of her blood was found on the carpet next to carpet that had just been recently cleaned

-Josh never went out and looked for his wife, while clearing out her retirement accounts.

-He had rented a car the day after the disappearance and put over 800 miles on it in just 2 days, why in the hell was he not followed?


Here is the link to the story. This is just crazy. That whole department should be ashamed of themselves. They possibly could have prevented the murder of the two boys. :(

If you read the article this there is new stuff in there. The cops released the investigation information since they have officially closed the case.

And was there really anything new that made you change your mind? We knew all of this already even though we didn't have all of the details released.

No, the thread is about how the case is officially closed and how shocking it still is that he was never arrested, especially with some of the new information just released. It's not about changing people's minds or my mind about the case.

I think it's really weird that I have to explain this to you. Are your reading comprehension skill's that bad?
 
I'm glad we had this chat.

I think it's really weird that you even posted this.
It's breaking news from years ago. Do we really have to revisit this for you?

It was shocking 2 years ago. It's old news now.
It's not reading comprehension that's the issue here, it's thread creation skills that are suspect.
 
The WVC PD is dumb, real real dumb. Not just in regard to the Susan Powell case, they're dumb in general.
 
A lot of evidence that is suspicious but nothing that I have seen that is proof that he 100% killed her.

1. Prove that she is dead? Body?
2. Prove that she was murdered?
3. If so, prove she was definitely murdered by Josh and not her father-in-law?


For the record I do think he killed her but no concrete evidence on how and who killed her.

Stop being an ***. No one forces you to post here. If you don't like the thread then stay the hell out.

I agree, the WVPD really screwed the pooch on this one. I remember how days after she disappeared that Powell seemed more concerned with skipping town and "forgetting" where they camped out than on finding his wife. I remember that night too. Bitter cold. Out of no where he takes 2 young boys camping in the middle of the night without letting anyone know? Who does that? Then, shortly after, he comes out with some weird *** story that she skipped town (without any of her credit cards, checks, personal id, to brazil with some dude. Remember that? Did she speak Portuguese? Were there any actual records of that? How was she expecting to get into brazil via plane? They sorta check id down there. How were they going to survive without money or id or ability to speak the language?

Just stupid stupid stupid.

They should have jailed him and kept him there until the investigation had closed just for the rental car, bloody carpet, and retarded story alone. But unfortunately the police were too busy doing drugs and killing innocent kills to do any actual police work. If I am ever killed I would rather have Mickey mouse work on my case over the WVPD.

Another great contribution to the thread. If you don't like my posts then please put me on your ignore list. If you don't like this thread then ignore it. But stop filling it up with attacks against other posters. It's getting ridiculous.

The WVPD really screwed up this case and it is sad that we will probably never find out what really happened because of their incompetence.
 
Honestly the reason they didn't arrest the guy is they wanted to charge him with murder and they didn't have enough evidence to do so and they didn't want to just hold him for 48hrs just out of suspicion!!!

It is a shame for that poor mom and her kids!!

Now let's not resort to name calling and Beantown is a good dude so lay off.
Someone a little sensitive that I called him PK for calling Hayward Kid Balla?
Take it out on me, not Beantown.
