S Bains-Oh he sure did starve his family! He made Susan feed them only 1x a day & he was so tight with HER $ that she had to grow her OWN garden in order for her to feed those baby boys nutritious food! 😡
For any of you having rude thoughts about how susan spoke to charlis she loved those kids more than anything and you dont have any clue what she was dealing with at that point in her life im her neice clarissa, those boys are my cousins and they are all gone jow so show some respect, my aunt has been through enough, and so have her sons and they deserve alot better than to be bashed on the internet by people who dont know wjat they are talking about. I love you susan, charlie and braden rest in piece, ill be here to defend you from anyone who thinks they know any different.
This tape is so chilling....I am so sorry Clarissa for your great loss. I read this book and was so overwhelmed by her story. Should have never happened. I wish they were able to bring him into custody...which I feel they should have as it was obvious to me that he was responsible, come on. Now the two boys have lost their lives, it is grossly unfair. RIP Susan and her angels.
No, I highly doubt that he is with her....murder is such a heinous act of violence that only someone totally lacking humanity could commit such an act. So if you are a Christian, no matter the brand or affiliation or act, if there us a heaven and a hell ..and most probably there ARE, in keeping with the laws of nature and physics, and opposits/duality....then HE should be writing in Hell for eternity. And, she and thevbots are in Heaven, in Peace, surrounded by love, acceptance, forgiveness and righteous spirits, deserving if all the blessings and happiness that this evil excuse for a man, robbed them of. Yes, to me it seems obvious that she knew what her tu ific potential the man MUGHT be capable of (hence, the videi). But as a good, loving, "normal" human being, as a wife and mother, she apparently (like I myself did, fir years) believed that her love, the children, that perhaps could change him, or soften his selfishness. Because we women, foolishly believe that if we love hard enough, strongly enough. that we can change someone. And she probably believed that the boys having a father around in their lives was important for them to be raised right....quite mistakenly....What a shame SHE di not take the boys and bail ling before the infamous camping trip to the birth pole.....a one way ticket with no return trip. God bless she and her boys....
Today was the beginning of the civil lawsuit against Washington state. This is heartbreaking to watch knowing in a few months she would be dead. The stress in her voice and desperation in trying to document everything “just in case” is difficult to witness. I pray she didn’t know or feel anything.
she sounds pretty damn relaxed to me. She can switch through emotions quite stabley as demonstrated when she yells at her kid and goes back to chill immediately after
Josh sure liked treating himself. He sounded like a spoiled brat. It's sad because this whole family was literally wiped out by Josh. He killed her, killed the kids, and himself. Disgusting man.
Alguien mas esta aqui por Paulette? No entiendo mucho ingles, solo se que esta mostrando sus pertenecias en caso que algo llegue a pasarle. Además es perturbador pensar que las personas del video, han muerto. :(
ella dice que está grabando ese video en caso de que le pase algo, dice la fecha, y dice exactamente donde esta, dice que documenta todo por si hay alguna emergencia y lo necesita ( por ejemplo, que le prendan fuego la casa y tenga que reclamar al seguro, por ejemplo).
notmyselfusee I had just finished hearing that and thought, "My Lord, what a chilling statement and confirmation that is." And then I stopped to read your comment while that thought was running through my mind. He *is* with his mama now. God bless those young souls and her family. I can't imagine what pain they have to live with.
The part that stuck out to me the most was when when she was opening her drawers with her makeup to show her little collection and explained how she liked Mary Kay but josh, a giant pathetic man baby would cut her off from buying it because it was “too expensive” . Meanwhile he has drawers full of literal crap and tools amounting to thousands of dollars. Susan deserved so much better she was surrounded by evil and lived with a narcissist and his family🤮. I really hope somehow her remains are found she deserves to rest in peace along with her boys and give her family some type of closure by having her home.❤️😞
"I had to help him all through the way, he doesn't do projects by himself" He sounds like the type of guy who would make everyone help him do stuff, yell and abuse them the whole time through claiming they couldn't do it right, and then claim he did it himself at the end.
BINGO that's exactly the kind of guy he was, his neighbor and future tenant Dax Guzman ended up building the entire deck while Josh barked orders....then Josh in the interview with police claimed he built the deck himself
It's not as easy as packing up.and leaving. So many emotions Susan was going through. Sadly she married a Psychopath and he was 1 step ahead of her. Shall Susan and her little ones R.I.P..
@@johngates450 to put your children first and out of danger she should have gone to a safe house. She knew they were in danger. Women get out straight away.
@@jaynestag95 But it is so hard to prove you are in danger. I mean in this instance, how to say that you FEEL something is wrong. Even if she knew he was suicidal....they would never have believed he would blow up the house and kids with himself. It is so hard to convey these types of issues to police and law officials....they can't act on "feelings"
@@AllinGold2 Do what to their husbands??? What is it she did exactly? I'd love to know. I'm sure it isn't worse than a husband who used all her money for junk, and racked up thousands of dollars in debt from his in laws, never paying any of it back. Plus, allowing his father to sexually harass her for years, even when she expressed that it made her uncomfortable. And of course let's not forget that he killed her and hid her body, later to off his sorry self and his own boys!!! Really?! Nothing she MAY have done warrants what happened to her. NOTHING.
Looks like Josh was all about Josh. All those tools and RC cars for himself. Looks like he always got what he wanted. Thousands and thousands of dollars spent on himself and they had to borrow money for a rocking chair that she probably used to rock her babies in. What a selfish heartless person. Most parents give everything to their children first so their needs are met such as food, clothing, bedding etc. Such a sad story and so much heartache for Susan’s family and friends. Such awful memories to live with Keeping her story alive has made others aware of what could happen and hopefully kept more families alive and well because of it. My sympathy to all that have endured such pain that this has caused.
Sad... I go through my house, and most of the things in here I got for my wife or my kid. Most of the things in that house are his. Only thing she mentioned were hers was the bathroom drawers... How do you bankrupt your family over some Ridgid brand tools?
On top of that when he filed for bankruptcy you and I paid for his "toys" through our high interest rates. It pisses me off when I look at my interest rates knowing people bought nicer things than I own and I helped pay for it.
Josh Powell is the classic narcissist. It's always about him and what he wants and how important he thinks he is...if Susan would have just left his azz, she and the kids would have been alive now. If a person is in this kind of a relationship...LEAVE ASAP!
I thought the same thing for years after watching this video. It seemed like he was a obssessive spender which caused them financial issues! And I think this video was for her to document all the things HE bought in case they would get a divorce (which is why I think her attorney wanted her to make this video)
@@thisisme3238 People are really waking up to the horrible life one has with a narcissist. They are incredibly emotionally manipulative. Theres so much great information out there now about narcissists . Unfortunately many don't learn about it until its too late. I feel so bad for her. And the kids...horrific.
I'm 55 yrs old, and watching this brought chills down my spine and pure terror of PTSD. I was married to a " Josh ". I married very young and had 3 kids by a Ex. He was extremely volatile and extremely abusive in every form imaginable. I'm in tears watching this...I and my kids escape. My God, I cried because She and her Children didn't. I'm shattering just thinking about how evilness walks in the world and does vile things. My heart breaks all over for Susan and her boys.
I liked your comment only because i felt like you deserve to know that I think you and women like you are so strong and deserve so much love and support. I’m so happy you were able to get out of there with your babies. You’re still so strong and i pray you are living a happy life now. Keep going beautiful warrior 💖
@@courthebrave I left at age 25. I hear people tell women in similar situations to just leave, It's not so cut and dry as such. Men like that tear women down to nothing. And finding places to hide, they find you. Trust me they do. Family and Friends are willing to go so far and do so much. There's so much that goes into disappearing, because that's what you have to do. Domestic violence is the number one death in young women. Think about that for a moment. I'm a survivor. It's not easy to leave and recovery is no joke. I'm 55 now and I still flinch with sudden movements and noises. I still suffer from PTSD. But I survived. I got my young children away before he could hurt them or kill me. And any man I get near with a red flag is history in my eyes. Do I still fear? You betcha! Those memories I'll never forget. I'm stronger and wiser now. But in no way do I feel like a hero or a warrior, I'm a survivor. I want to help every victim I see.
@@angellanabb3662 you’re right it is NOT an easy thing. I was in a very abusive relationship as well but nothing like what you experienced. I’m happy you’re not afraid to share your life and help other women who go through these horrible situations. The reason i called you a warrior is because you are someone who battles with your past and helps other victims as well. It takes a lot of heart and courage to do that. Thank you for sharing your life and helping others 😊
I was also in a very physically and mentally abusive relationship; it took every ounce of my strength to call police. it took a year for me to begin to rebuild my mental health and sanity. I had no help. I'm very happy you are alive and safe
It's not always easy to leave, and a lot of the time abusive people present themselves as loving and caring for so long when they start showing signs and becoming abusive you start questioning yourself because it's hard to believe. You have so many memories of this person being nothing but good to you and now they're acting this way, it really makes you question your own sanity sometimes. Leaving an abusive relationship is never easy especially after marriage aswell and my heart goes out to the people that didnt manage to make it out alive :(
Been there. It took me awhile to realize all the sympathy he got from me, all the help...meant nothing. It was never reciprocated. " Thats what you did for me yesterday, what about today?" I just didn't understand how someone could have a mindset like that. I do now. There really are people like this.
In the very beginning Susan talks about if anything happens to her. . .or to all of them. I think she had an intuition something bad was going to happen.
Her divorce lawyer told her to make this so he couldn’t hide assets. She was instructed to say “in case of flood, fire, etc,” so Josh wouldn’t think she was leaving him if he found it
He let it be known she would never get away with taking those boys and leaving and divorcing her, he may not have come out and said he would kill her outright but yes, she knew, she knew she was in terrible danger, how I wish she would have just taken the boys and ran away
Yeah she definitely was very scared and wanted a divorce, probably why she was filming all this as evidence. I got chills when she talked about the saw and his tools, he probably had been scary and violent before.
Am I the only one that finds it really creepy that some of the items she's naming off could have been used in her murder that Josh definitely committed without a doubt? Saws, drills, lights, camping gear.... etc....
Susan points out a box fan in the basement that was more than likely one of the fans found by police being used to dry a wet spot on the couch when they initially forced entry into the house. So sad and creepy to think that, to her at this point, it is just an innocuous fan, but we know it was used to try and hide the truth about what happened to her just a year later.
You do NOT need to break a child's spirit just because they want to hug your leg....that's ABUSE, not discipline. You CLEARLY are ignorant to believe discipline needs to be harsh or hateful. That is called authoritarian parenting and it's considered abusive and emotionally neglectful. Your IGNORANCE about the 3 parenting style does NOT excuse you making excuses for her shitty parenting, either.
@@mouse438 Child abuse and neglect is never funny (to me). You might feel different. Just because she was murdered by her husband does not excuse the way she treated her young children, who were BURNED ALIVE. Or have you forgotten that?
@@le_th_ that wasn't abuse. go through the case files and interviews. Josh was abusive. he starved his boys to the point they were underweight. he said: there's no point in feeding them because "they will just poop it out"
@@le_th_ it's not funny to me either but I'm not making excuses for her ur just overreacting. and I haven't and never will forget this case. they deserve to be remembered.
I guarantee she was murdered and dismembered with multiple items she actual filmed through out this video and that is so sick and heartbreaking. Josh killed her and cut up her remains with the shit she bought his broke ass
Ladies, leave the junk. Grab your kids and leave. Plan it well, save money, ask for money, ask for help to leave. Don't be a victim! Save yourself and your kids. Hit record memo on your phone when they are threatening or violent
ayeni sia thats what you call ALWAYS in fear, the constant walking on eggshells, saving that "smiling energy" for when hes around so he doesn't see her depression or another beating will follow, I know, I lived it, my ex husband tried to kill me and didn't not succeed obviously, because our 16 year old son saved us all! , My ex was going to kill all of us, he was sent to prison and we no longer walk on eggshells...... God Bless Susan and her babies, may they all rest in peace..
@@monicajean37 I'm so sorry you went through that. I know that was Susan's situation too. So sad to see the depression she was dealing with cause of an abusive man.
I’m so sorry to family members. This was an awful atrocity, and should have never happened. Josh was one sick man, if you could call him that. May Susan, and her boys, live in Paradise forever. Godspeed.
thank you to those of you defending my aunt in the comments as for the person defending josh, he was a selfish man throughout the relationship he didnt just spoil himself for years they had this annoying and expensive bird thatbhe also spent all of susans money on and as a response to another comment, she didnt know she was gonna die evidently, and my mom did tell susan to leave, but josh was listening on another line most of the time and he on quote said over his dead body would she ever get those kids... and a while later she was gone, then when he didnt get the kids... they were gone too
Clarissa Fowler I really do hope your family has closure eventually. I knew about the case to an extent when it happened, but I have recently listened to podcasts about it in detail and it's heartbreaking! I would hope law enforcement or someone can get information out of someone in regards to Susan.
Dear Clarissa, My Heart will always be for you and Your Family. My Tears are the pain I feel from Your Loss. Please know many Feel the same. Sincerely, jcw
He bought all that stuff to bankrupt her so she could not leave him! What you hear in her voice is frustration from the mental abuse she suffered repeatedly. She was on edge. Emotional abuse keeps you on edge, and yes, you lose sight on how you speak to your children when you are constantly on edge. This is a classic case of a woman that is emotionally abused.
It's so horrific that Joshua and Steve Powell are, and were, selfish and evil men. It's disgusting that three people lost their live's because of someone else's sociopathy. I can't believe that I'm going to say that I'm actually glad that Joshua is dead. I only wish that Steve Powell would stay behind bars for the rest of his life...
I’ll go one further I’m glad All the Powell men are dead! Josh, his demented father and his complicit brother. I’m only disappointed they weren’t all brought to satisfactory justice prior to their deaths.
" just in case something happens to me or my family" chills oh my... it's like she had a sense.. I hope you are flying high with the angles and your sons... such a tragic event..
He made it very obvious, he's a pos, she knew he was capable of killing her and her children. And he did exactly that. And being the sociopath he is, he couldn't even leave a note, or anything, that would've led police to her body. He didn't want to leave any closure.
This is SO hard to watch:( so haunting... We are basically see a countdown to murder through Susan's eyes. RIP Susan ,Braden and Charlie- you are forever together!
She's breathing heavy like nervous. My heart hurts for her she never got the justice she deserved. My brother in law Matt Odom was murdered by his wife and boyfriend at the time. I.am glad Susan and her children are all together and not suffering anymore 💕
He's a bad man on this video because she states that he bought stuff got the bank to repo it and bought more on her credit so while having 2 young boys-he bought toys for himself that put them in debt. Nevermind the fact that this guy killed his wife and hacked his two sweet boys up with a hatchet. He is beyond selfish and evil and is burning for eternity down below.
Exactly. And he "cuts" her off from her Mary Kay makeup expense. That statement alone in comparison to all he had says it all. Very sad story. RIP Susan and Charlie and Bradon. :(
Listen to the cold podcast. Apparently around this time he made her take out a 500,000 insurance policy and made her bike to work. Not only that but he had her sign over the rights for him to pull the plug if she was on life support.. The host thinks he was plotting for her to have an "accident" 3 years prior to her disappearance. They had such a massive debt that he could wipe it clean if she passed. He used the van mainly but she had to ask to.
By the sound of her voice she seems unhappy and on edge so sad their all dead,we never know what someone is thinking and willing to do to the people they claim to Love.
so incredibly sad. Did anyone get that part about the make up? she said she liked a certain brand but josh cuts her off after a while, because it's too expensive. Sick freak
I don't think that part is something to focus on. Mary Kay is multi level marketing. They essentially charge women to buy their make up and try to sell it for them. Text book pyramid scheme. Josh was definitely controlling, but I would get my wife to stay away from that stuff too.
It's so sad to look in Susan's (RIP) eyes on this video. Another beautiful soul dispatched much too soon. I pray that it was quick and she didn't suffer. How we as humans can do this to each other is beyond me. How can you kill another innocent human being, your wife, the mother of your children?!? Her children are with her now in heaven while that coward Josh is roasting in hell.
Their family is LDS, which makes me most surprised and upset. Because Josh was basically betraying the trust of the church. I’m also LDS, so I understand how it is. I didn’t say you don’t though.
Since you have to wait until judgement day to go to heaven or hell, no I don't think he's roasting in hell or they're in heaven right now. We sleep in the grave until judgement day. Why do Christians believe that God will allow people in hell before judgement day, just to roast and roast. That's not what Gods like.
Why didn't her family get her out of this situation before it was too late. The father of these children reminds me of the father in Frederick, Colo recently. Narcissistic.
@clarissa Fowler Thank you for your comment. Women experiencing abuse can experience irritability, agitation, distress, anxiety, depression and mood disorders relative to the terror and violence, emotional or otherwise that they experience. It is well documented. I extend grace and kindness to Susan and assume your assessment is valid and that Susan may have been experiencing more abuse than she knew how to explain or articulate. I am so sorry for your loss, pain and suffering and especially for the insensitivity of online commenters who are uneducated about the severity of domestic violence (DV). She did this video at 4 am which also tells me she didn't feel safe doing while Josh was home during the day. People need to understand the level of stress women experience who are experiencing violence. Her father in law was also abusive to her in a sexually harassing way. She had NO protection. Our society and systems need to respond more quickly to the danger women face in DV relationships. It's very serious. Too many woman die while awaiting legal protections and help. Again, an aly and advocate and sympathizer for your loss and suffering. Sending love, compassion, empathy and healing for your entire family. I pray the world get answers. Susan Powell is Utah's poster child for the need for severe change to our systems. Love to you.
@You Play Video That woman was under so much stress, she loved those kids and they're gone now along with her. You have no idea what she was going through and you really shouldnt be judging the way she acted in this footage. The reason she made it is because she feared for her life and the way she acted here is perfectly reasonable.
This is the SADDEST MOST HEARTBREAKING thing I've seen.she 100% had a gut feeling of some sort! When she said...hopefully things will work out...her facial expression said it all 😢. I'm so sorry this happened to you & your babies 😔
Born and raised up the street from their once was home. This story hits hard and continues to do so. I feel so much for Susan and her family, I hope one day we can find her and lay her to rest. What a sick man Josh Powell was. She was probably unhappy and wanted a happy life with her boys and he didn't like that so he took her out of this world. Nobody deserves to have their life taken by other people. May Susan and her boys Rest In Peace and hopefully they find her soon.
This is one of the heart rending story I have ever read.Now this video of Susan documenting assets just makes it even more horrific in light of what happened in the end.
I feel so bad for those children. i watched brave little Charlie in that interrogation video. Basically saying his dad did something terrible. I cant believe they gave those kids back to that monster.
They completely failed those boys and the poor little guy was saying I can’t talk to you. It’s just so heartbreaking. They should be alive and with a new tip that came forward they may have found her. I hope it’s her so she can be placed with her sons.
This is so heart wrenching. I hope she is found to give her grief stricken family and friends closure. If you could have closure after something like this. ❤️
Who keeps a lockbox from their wife 🤔 my husband barely knows what were going to find in his pockets when they go in the wash. Very odd. He clearly had lots of evidence to destroy.
I feel bad for her I really do but after hearing a more in depth version of this story on the cold podcast it just baffles me why this woman stayed with him??? she was evening trying for another child???? and she was telling her friends that if anything happened to me it's my husband....its just crazy to me why anyone would stay in such a toxic situation and not expect something toxic not to happen.. idk it's just crazy to me..and it's not like she was alone she had family and friends she could have gone to.. sorry to be insensitive but it just really bothers me that Susan stayed with him
She stayed because he was breaking her down , at first it probably was just annoying, then hurtful, they she started questioning herself….. it sounds like she was beginning to question maybe it wasn’t her but him that had issues.
It's exhausting to try to get out of the situation she is in with him. She probably gave up and just decided all she could be is a devoted Mom. Once you are in an abusive relationship, it's so difficult to have insight on your situation.
I watched Heavy D Sparks and Alan on their channels clearing out the mine that they thought she was in and that's how I first heard about this tragic incident. I wish they could have found her so her family could get some closure and she could be buried in a proper burial. I can't ever understand how or why a man can do these awful things to his family like this. I feel so so terrible for Susan and her little boys. And watching this knowing what happened to them was very hard to say the least. My most sincere and deepest condolences to Susan's family. I hope she is found soon. Rest in peace Susan and her little boys. I'm so sorry..
@@ironwolfgamingyt They literally did not find her. They found some pants that the dad thinks COULD have been Susan's. They could have belonged to literally anyone.
Thanks so much for showing us Susan’s beautiful face. It guts me that she died at the hands of her hubby Josh along with sweet Charlie with her in the video and her younger son too. Rest in Power beautiful soul, and sweet Charlie, you were such an amazing big boy !!!
this is absurdly tragic ..on a side note who buys saws in massive supply? he must have been super crazy, did he think each room needed a saw? I feel bad for this family
Oh okay. He cuts you off from buying Mary Kay, but then puts you into huge debt by buying expensive crap for himself. What an ass! RIP Susan. You deserved so much better.
Why did no one advise her to leave the stuff, grab the kids, and get out. She was in an impossibly difficult situation and needed someone to step in. I was in a very similar situation and left without a penny and have been paying for it financially ever since, but I know now that it was the right decision. Susan and her sons needed help, not legal advise on how to hold on to the marital assets. This unimaginable tragedy stands as a warning that safety should always come first.
Buying stuff on her credit card until he bankrupted it. What a manipulative move- now she has no credit and that makes it so much harder for her to leave.
Those buckets of food are a perfect example of how too many people waste their lives fearing the wrong thing. To date, not a single person has had to cope with a collapse of the ever-reliable American food supply. But how many are murdered every year by someone they know and trust?
This video is so eerie to me. I am currently renting this house with roommates . The floral chandeliers and light fixtures are still here in the kitchen. The basement is finished now-two bedrooms, a living room area and a bathroom. With the exception of furnishings of course...not much has changed. :'(
Was this thw home she stayed at when she went 'missing'. If it is theres a good chance he may have murdered her there. Doesn't bare thinking about what kind of life she had. You can tell she was in fear for her life making this video :(
My X husband told me that he was planning to kill me and our infant daughter. I moved away and hid for a few years. I’ve never remarried, 45 years later.
This is so heartbreaking to watch. The sound of her voice sounds in distress as well. It's frustrating how someone can go on to act like he has some sort of an authority on your life and make you suffer with them.
Eerie video. This case hit me, for some reason; even before the tragic end. I still google for new details, from time to time. Information is trailing off, though.
the powell sister who supports steven and josh has a youtube channel with seven videos about the case. not too many people go there. they post under the name "susan powell."
I could hear the disappointment in her voice when she mentioned the wedding photo. I myself have escaped a desperate situation of abuse and coercive control. We need to stop teaching girls that their lives will be complete with the man, house and kids. It looks to me as if she bought into that dream. Only to be murdered by an abusive narcissistic monster.
I wish that instead of taking the time to videotape all of those possessions, she had taken those two precious boys and gotten the heck out. She should have gone to her parents' house. None of the crap in that house was worth fighting over.
Poor sweetheart you can hear it in her voice. I came from a very abusive relationship where I couldn't sleep at night for fear of my life and my small children. At night I had to lock them in the basement bedroom so daddy couldn't get to them in the event that I accidentally fell asleep. So when she's snapping at her son it's called stress and exhaustion where every little sound makes your skin crawl. RIP Susan you have your little boys with you. They were spared a grim upbringing by their father who we all know would've gotten them back based on how this whole thing was handled.
I totally understand how tragic this whole story is.......but what kind of people would borrow over 3 grand from their parents "for a chair"??? Most folks borrow that kind of money from family or friends in an emergency, such as: getting a car or truck fixed, repairs or replacing things like a hot water heater, appliance, down payment on a car, purchasing some old beater car, help in paying for medical expenses, attorney's fees, heck, even posting bond to get someone out of jail...........but A CHAIR???
She was only telling the little boy to be quiet because she was making a video, we take offence because we know what happened to him.I wish she ran away from him but the law would have let her down like they did her children.
What happened to this family is horrible. I was married to a man like this also, always the children and I in a state of deprivation while he treated himself. He threatened to kill us all when I asked for a divorce and he got the children to lie about me and get full custody and me no contact. None of our five children will speak to me. Somehow the children gaslight me for everything their Dad did to them, while expecting some level of perfect from me no one can achieve, taking every flaw I have and magnifying it. They call me a monster. Everything he did they accuse me of. I am very blessed to be out of there, I got my mom out of there. My mom and I are together and safe. The children cutoff my entire side of the family. I can see similarities in the possessions and inequity. I had no belongings. What little I did have he purposely broke. Assets were split 90/10 in his favor and he broke my things and gave me broken things on purpose. 25 years of marriage, 9 pregnancies and 30 years of work with nothing to show for it. The children are very narcissistic and too toxic to be healthy to be around, plus they do not want anything to do with me. The children only want to hurt me.
I'm glad youre out and alive. its not worth it to bother with relationships with your kids if they are going to abuse you. your ex sounds just like josh powells dad steve. he turned all his ex wifes kids against her and left her broke and penniless
This poor woman had to deal with so much leading up to what has happened to her and her beautiful babies. It's obvious to me that Josh was a horrible person and a controlling husband who onky thought about himself. I hope Susan and her babies are together now on heaven and I hope Josh is rotting in hell for what he has done to his family.
Stevie LoveLess It’s such a sad case and the awful thing is that there are people who are trapped in abusive relationships everyday. And some of those cases end up in murder. I’ve warned people about sociopathic people in their lives but it falls on deaf ears. 😭

She had an intuition something bad was going to happen.

What a bastard

This tape is so chilling....I am so sorry Clarissa for your great loss. I read this book and was so overwhelmed by her story. Should have never happened. I wish they were able to bring him into custody...which I feel they should have as it was obvious to me that he was responsible, come on. Now the two boys have lost their lives, it is grossly unfair. RIP Susan and her angels.
Her husband should be in jail.
He is dead.
fadedflage Yup, killed himself and their 2 kids
this is so heartbreaking. you can hear the pain in her voice and how resigned she is to living with this monster. rest in peace.
She was a Mormon.
Is it just me or is she really cute in this video
@ohh2752 that's so inappropriate keep those thoughts to yourself
" Mommy I'm with you, "
"You *are* with me."
Okay this gave me some chills. Because.. He IS with her now, and I hope they rest peacefully 💜
Yeehaw Hobi time stamp please?
@@riisntsryc3771 @ 4:19
Bb. Rdrgz thank you so much x
No, I highly doubt that he is with her....murder is such a heinous act of violence that only someone totally lacking humanity could commit such an act. So if you are a Christian, no matter the brand or affiliation or act, if there us a heaven and a hell ..and most probably there ARE, in keeping with the laws of nature and physics, and opposits/duality....then HE should be writing in Hell for eternity. And, she and thevbots are in Heaven, in Peace, surrounded by love, acceptance, forgiveness and righteous spirits, deserving if all the blessings and happiness that this evil excuse for a man, robbed them of. Yes, to me it seems obvious that she knew what her tu ific potential the man MUGHT be capable of (hence, the videi). But as a good, loving, "normal" human being, as a wife and mother, she apparently (like I myself did, fir years) believed that her love, the children, that perhaps could change him, or soften his selfishness. Because we women, foolishly believe that if we love hard enough, strongly enough. that we can change someone. And she probably believed that the boys having a father around in their lives was important for them to be raised right....quite mistakenly....What a shame SHE di not take the boys and bail ling before the infamous camping trip to the birth pole.....a one way ticket with no return trip. God bless she and her boys....
@@patricializarragacastro4324 she was talking about Charlie being with his mom now..💖
She seemed so stressed out. Poor girl. She KNEW something would happen to her.
Lisa Foos Yep, I feel bad too!
Yep. She sure did know.
Today was the beginning of the civil lawsuit against Washington state. This is heartbreaking to watch knowing in a few months she would be dead. The stress in her voice and desperation in trying to document everything “just in case” is difficult to witness. I pray she didn’t know or feel anything.
She and the boys should've left far earlier.
She had to have known that both Josh and Steven weren't all there.
she sounds pretty damn relaxed to me. She can switch through emotions quite stabley as demonstrated when she yells at her kid and goes back to chill immediately after
Josh sure liked treating himself. He sounded like a spoiled brat. It's sad because this whole family was literally wiped out by Josh. He killed her, killed the kids, and himself. Disgusting man.
Too bad he didn't just start and end with himself.
He had a sick dad… so it makes sense they are both sick 🤕
@@SunnysBibleASMR Yea his entire family is disgusting, and oddly enough, all of them are dead.

"Charlie get off my leg" sad but true in mormon culture. She was a hard worker and didnt deserve this upbringing!
@@dejacavu6259 yeah but? Wth? She sounds mean!!!!!!!
The part that stuck out to me the most was when when she was opening her drawers with her makeup to show her little collection and explained how she liked Mary Kay but josh, a giant pathetic man baby would cut her off from buying it because it was “too expensive” . Meanwhile he has drawers full of literal crap and tools amounting to thousands of dollars. Susan deserved so much better she was surrounded by evil and lived with a narcissist and his family🤮. I really hope somehow her remains are found she deserves to rest in peace along with her boys and give her family some type of closure by having her home.❤️😞
"I had to help him all through the way, he doesn't do projects by himself" He sounds like the type of guy who would make everyone help him do stuff, yell and abuse them the whole time through claiming they couldn't do it right, and then claim he did it himself at the end.
Narcissistic personality disorder.
How did he even get a normal person
Anna Jolie Yep. That's exactly how he was. That's why she said that. He was selfish and had a narcissistic personality. I know exactly how she felt.
Listen to the Cold Podcast. He hired his neighbor Daz Guzman and directed him on how to build a deck but just sat there doing nothing.
BINGO that's exactly the kind of guy he was, his neighbor and future tenant Dax Guzman ended up building the entire deck while Josh barked orders....then Josh in the interview with police claimed he built the deck himself
she was well aware danger was lurking. She seems so unhappy there is no doubt she wanted out and he could not handle it.
He told her she could never leave with the kids. And he made sure she didn't. So tragic.
Anne Boleyn She has them now though. While he rots.
It's not as easy as packing up.and leaving. So many emotions Susan was going through. Sadly she married a Psychopath and he was 1 step ahead of her. Shall Susan and her little ones R.I.P..
@@johngates450 to put your children first and out of danger she should have gone to a safe house. She knew they were in danger. Women get out straight away.
@@jaynestag95 But it is so hard to prove you are in danger. I mean in this instance, how to say that you FEEL something is wrong. Even if she knew he was suicidal....they would never have believed he would blow up the house and kids with himself. It is so hard to convey these types of issues to police and law officials....they can't act on "feelings"
Charging all his crap on Susan's credit?! what a pathetic waste of space this monster was/
"Men" like him are disgusting.
As are women who do this to their husbands.
Retirement Crisis what did she do ?
@@AllinGold2 Do what to their husbands??? What is it she did exactly? I'd love to know. I'm sure it isn't worse than a husband who used all her money for junk, and racked up thousands of dollars in debt from his in laws, never paying any of it back. Plus, allowing his father to sexually harass her for years, even when she expressed that it made her uncomfortable. And of course let's not forget that he killed her and hid her body, later to off his sorry self and his own boys!!! Really?! Nothing she MAY have done warrants what happened to her. NOTHING.
@@AllinGold2 I'm still waiting on you to say what it is she did......
Looks like Josh was all about Josh. All those tools and RC cars for himself. Looks like he always got what he wanted. Thousands and thousands of dollars spent on himself and they had to borrow money for a rocking chair that she probably used to rock her babies in. What a selfish heartless person. Most parents give everything to their children first so their needs are met such as food, clothing, bedding etc. Such a sad story and so much heartache for Susan’s family and friends. Such awful memories to live with Keeping her story alive has made others aware of what could happen and hopefully kept more families alive and well because of it. My sympathy to all that have endured such pain that this has caused.
Sad... I go through my house, and most of the things in here I got for my wife or my kid. Most of the things in that house are his. Only thing she mentioned were hers was the bathroom drawers... How do you bankrupt your family over some Ridgid brand tools?
On top of that when he filed for bankruptcy you and I paid for his "toys" through our high interest rates. It pisses me off when I look at my interest rates knowing people bought nicer things than I own and I helped pay for it.
Josh Powell is the classic narcissist. It's always about him and what he wants and how important he thinks he is...if Susan would have just left his azz, she and the kids would have been alive now. If a person is in this kind of a relationship...LEAVE ASAP!
I thought the same thing for years after watching this video. It seemed like he was a obssessive spender which caused them financial issues! And I think this video was for her to document all the things HE bought in case they would get a divorce (which is why I think her attorney wanted her to make this video)
@@thisisme3238 People are really waking up to the horrible life one has with a narcissist. They are incredibly emotionally manipulative. Theres so much great information out there now about narcissists . Unfortunately many don't learn about it until its too late. I feel so bad for her. And the kids...horrific.
I'm 55 yrs old, and watching this brought chills down my spine and pure terror of PTSD. I was married to a " Josh ". I married very young and had 3 kids by a Ex. He was extremely volatile and extremely abusive in every form imaginable. I'm in tears watching this...I and my kids escape. My God, I cried because She and her Children didn't. I'm shattering just thinking about how evilness walks in the world and does vile things. My heart breaks all over for Susan and her boys.
I liked your comment only because i felt like you deserve to know that I think you and women like you are so strong and deserve so much love and support. I’m so happy you were able to get out of there with your babies. You’re still so strong and i pray you are living a happy life now. Keep going beautiful warrior 💖
@@courthebrave I left at age 25. I hear people tell women in similar situations to just leave, It's not so cut and dry as such. Men like that tear women down to nothing. And finding places to hide, they find you. Trust me they do. Family and Friends are willing to go so far and do so much. There's so much that goes into disappearing, because that's what you have to do. Domestic violence is the number one death in young women. Think about that for a moment. I'm a survivor. It's not easy to leave and recovery is no joke. I'm 55 now and I still flinch with sudden movements and noises. I still suffer from PTSD. But I survived. I got my young children away before he could hurt them or kill me. And any man I get near with a red flag is history in my eyes. Do I still fear? You betcha! Those memories I'll never forget. I'm stronger and wiser now. But in no way do I feel like a hero or a warrior, I'm a survivor. I want to help every victim I see.
Me, too! I relate.
@@angellanabb3662 you’re right it is NOT an easy thing. I was in a very abusive relationship as well but nothing like what you experienced. I’m happy you’re not afraid to share your life and help other women who go through these horrible situations. The reason i called you a warrior is because you are someone who battles with your past and helps other victims as well. It takes a lot of heart and courage to do that. Thank you for sharing your life and helping others 😊
I was also in a very physically and mentally abusive relationship; it took every ounce of my strength to call police. it took a year for me to begin to rebuild my mental health and sanity. I had no help. I'm very happy you are alive and safe
Take note lady’s, if you have a 38 year old child that you are carrying through life GET OUT!
Why do y’all wanna do that anyway !?!?!?!?
Narcissists go for vulnerable people
It's not always easy to leave, and a lot of the time abusive people present themselves as loving and caring for so long when they start showing signs and becoming abusive you start questioning yourself because it's hard to believe. You have so many memories of this person being nothing but good to you and now they're acting this way, it really makes you question your own sanity sometimes. Leaving an abusive relationship is never easy especially after marriage aswell and my heart goes out to the people that didnt manage to make it out alive :(
Been there. It took me awhile to realize all the sympathy he got from me, all the help...meant nothing. It was never reciprocated. " Thats what you did for me yesterday, what about today?" I just didn't understand how someone could have a mindset like that. I do now. There really are people like this.
A grown man with an RC car?
Josh and his entire family was absolutely pathetic.
How could a grown man not have any? Don't forget that guy was not a man, he was a murderer.
In the very beginning Susan talks about if anything happens to her. . .or to all of them. I think she had an intuition something bad was going to happen.
Definitely. "Fire, floods..disputes.." I think she wanted a divorce, but was scared of what would happen.
Her divorce lawyer told her to make this so he couldn’t hide assets. She was instructed to say “in case of flood, fire, etc,” so Josh wouldn’t think she was leaving him if he found it
By then she would know her husband really well. She should have gone with the kids to a safe house.
He let it be known she would never get away with taking those boys and leaving and divorcing her, he may not have come out and said he would kill her outright but yes, she knew, she knew she was in terrible danger, how I wish she would have just taken the boys and ran away
Yeah she definitely was very scared and wanted a divorce, probably why she was filming all this as evidence. I got chills when she talked about the saw and his tools, he probably had been scary and violent before.
Am I the only one that finds it really creepy that some of the items she's naming off could have been used in her murder that Josh definitely committed without a doubt?
Saws, drills, lights, camping gear.... etc....
Jan Grossman I thought the same. If you watch the the investigation video that recliner sofa is pictured 😡
Susan points out a box fan in the basement that was more than likely one of the fans found by police being used to dry a wet spot on the couch when they initially forced entry into the house. So sad and creepy to think that, to her at this point, it is just an innocuous fan, but we know it was used to try and hide the truth about what happened to her just a year later.
I said the same thing especially that saw
Like that saw! My stomach dropped
Definitely suspect
the people who were saying she was rude to her children have clearly never been disciplined
You do NOT need to break a child's spirit just because they want to hug your leg....that's ABUSE, not discipline. You CLEARLY are ignorant to believe discipline needs to be harsh or hateful. That is called authoritarian parenting and it's considered abusive and emotionally neglectful.
Your IGNORANCE about the 3 parenting style does NOT excuse you making excuses for her shitty parenting, either.
@@le_th_ she spoke sternly????? she didn't hit. she was busy and could've tripped. it's funny how u can say that after what happened.
@@mouse438 Child abuse and neglect is never funny (to me). You might feel different. Just because she was murdered by her husband does not excuse the way she treated her young children, who were BURNED ALIVE. Or have you forgotten that?
@@le_th_ that wasn't abuse. go through the case files and interviews.
Josh was abusive. he starved his boys to the point they were underweight. he said: there's no point in feeding them because "they will just poop it out"
@@le_th_ it's not funny to me either but I'm not making excuses for her ur just overreacting. and I haven't and never will forget this case. they deserve to be remembered.
I guarantee she was murdered and dismembered with multiple items she actual filmed through out this video and that is so sick and heartbreaking. Josh killed her and cut up her remains with the shit she bought his broke ass
Ladies, leave the junk. Grab your kids and leave. Plan it well, save money, ask for money, ask for help to leave. Don't be a victim! Save yourself and your kids. Hit record memo on your phone when they are threatening or violent
I 100% agree.👍
anyone else notice it looks like it hurts her to smile?
kitty sllayer yes she was disturbed of something
ayeni sia thats what you call ALWAYS in fear, the constant walking on eggshells, saving that "smiling energy" for when hes around so he doesn't see her depression or another beating will follow, I know, I lived it, my ex husband tried to kill me and didn't not succeed obviously, because our 16 year old son saved us all! , My ex was going to kill all of us, he was sent to prison and we no longer walk on eggshells...... God Bless Susan and her babies, may they all rest in peace..
@@monicajean37 I'm so glad you and your family got out. Too many women don't 😟
@@monicajean37 I'm so sorry you went through that. I know that was Susan's situation too. So sad to see the depression she was dealing with cause of an abusive man.
@D Macnutz want to what?
I’m so sorry to family members. This was an awful atrocity, and should have never happened. Josh was one sick man, if you could call him that. May Susan, and her boys, live in Paradise forever. Godspeed.
You can hear the "I'm done with it" in her voice. This is so incredibly eerie.
No justice in the world for Susan or her little boys.
She had the misfortune of marrying a sick fuck for a husband happens all the time
thank you to those of you defending my aunt in the comments as for the person defending josh, he was a selfish man throughout the relationship he didnt just spoil himself for years they had this annoying and expensive bird thatbhe also spent all of susans money on and as a response to another comment, she didnt know she was gonna die evidently, and my mom did tell susan to leave, but josh was listening on another line most of the time and he on quote said over his dead body would she ever get those kids... and a while later she was gone, then when he didnt get the kids... they were gone too
Clarissa Fowler I really do hope your family has closure eventually. I knew about the case to an extent when it happened, but I have recently listened to podcasts about it in detail and it's heartbreaking! I would hope law enforcement or someone can get information out of someone in regards to Susan.
I’m so sorry your family had to go through that! It must be pretty tough. It’s very sad.
Annoying and expensive bird that is also a victim in all of this. It’s not the birds fault that he had crappy owners. Sad you don’t see it that way.
Dear Clarissa,

Looks like everything belonged to Josh. Including her and the kids.
Gul Osman and the 🐶
He bought all that stuff to bankrupt her so she could not leave him! What you hear in her voice is frustration from the mental abuse she suffered repeatedly. She was on edge. Emotional abuse keeps you on edge, and yes, you lose sight on how you speak to your children when you are constantly on edge. This is a classic case of a woman that is emotionally abused.
All three of them deserved so much better. :(
It's so horrific that Joshua and Steve Powell are, and were, selfish and evil men. It's disgusting that three people lost their live's because of someone else's sociopathy. I can't believe that I'm going to say that I'm actually glad that Joshua is dead. I only wish that Steve Powell would stay behind bars for the rest of his life...
I’ll go one further I’m glad All the Powell men are dead! Josh, his demented father and his complicit brother. I’m only disappointed they weren’t all brought to satisfactory justice prior to their deaths.
Has he Talked At All?? Steve??
Who is Steve
@@AseAleishaSteve was Josh’s father.
@@jennifermarie1230He died in 2019 but he never said a word I dont think. Just blamed a random man for her disappearance and not Josh.
" just in case something happens to me or my family" chills oh my... it's like she had a sense.. I hope you are flying high with the angles and your sons... such a tragic event..
He made it very obvious, he's a pos, she knew he was capable of killing her and her children. And he did exactly that. And being the sociopath he is, he couldn't even leave a note, or anything, that would've led police to her body. He didn't want to leave any closure.
This is SO hard to watch:( so haunting... We are basically see a countdown to murder through Susan's eyes. RIP Susan ,Braden and Charlie- you are forever together!
She's breathing heavy like nervous. My heart hurts for her she never got the justice she deserved. My brother in law Matt Odom was murdered by his wife and boyfriend at the time. I.am glad Susan and her children are all together and not suffering anymore 💕
Buying overpriced furniture, playing with computers and rc cars. No wonder he filed for bankruptcy.
3 times or more
He's a bad man on this video because she states that he bought stuff got the bank to repo it and bought more on her credit so while having 2 young boys-he bought toys for himself that put them in debt. Nevermind the fact that this guy killed his wife and hacked his two sweet boys up with a hatchet. He is beyond selfish and evil and is burning for eternity down below.
Very telling!! She must have been planning on divorcing him. He sure spared no expense on all that crap he bought himself. A $300 remote for the tv?!
Exactly. And he "cuts" her off from her Mary Kay makeup expense. That statement alone in comparison to all he had says it all. Very sad story. RIP Susan and Charlie and Bradon. :(
Typical abuser. Luxury items for themselves, nothing for anybody else.
lesafaye she also stated that some of this stuff he bought with her credit😡
lesafaye ikr? Who gets themselves into massive debt on their wife's credit and then spends $300 friggin dollars on something as stupid as a remote?😡
Listen to the cold podcast. Apparently around this time he made her take out a 500,000 insurance policy and made her bike to work. Not only that but he had her sign over the rights for him to pull the plug if she was on life support.. The host thinks he was plotting for her to have an "accident" 3 years prior to her disappearance. They had such a massive debt that he could wipe it clean if she passed. He used the van mainly but she had to ask to.
By the sound of her voice she seems unhappy and on edge so sad their all dead,we never know what someone is thinking and willing to do to the people they claim to Love.
She doesn’t know that she’s dead yet so how could she be sad dummy
so incredibly sad. Did anyone get that part about the make up? she said she liked a certain brand but josh cuts her off after a while, because it's too expensive. Sick freak
Julietta Grey yes, she said she liked Mary Kay but he cuts her off because it’s to expensive 🙄
What about all the expensive crap HE bought ?! She should have cut him off from her credit card !!!
I don't think that part is something to focus on. Mary Kay is multi level marketing. They essentially charge women to buy their make up and try to sell it for them. Text book pyramid scheme. Josh was definitely controlling, but I would get my wife to stay away from that stuff too.
And took the mirrors down? Creepy.
Beauty parlour chair? Do you think she wanted to open her own besuty parlour one day? 🤔
Its sad this is the only way ill ever get to hear charlie and susan, ever again, and ill never hear braden again..
This case haunts me. The fact that everyone directly involved in Susan's disappearance or those who had some knowledge of what hapoened are now dead
It's amazing how all this material stuff that is supposed to make you happy can absolutely make you miserable.
Josh killed her he was a sick brutal bastard and so was his father. What he did to his sons is awful. One day they will find her body in a mine
It's so sad to look in Susan's (RIP) eyes on this video. Another beautiful soul dispatched much too soon. I pray that it was quick and she didn't suffer. How we as humans can do this to each other is beyond me. How can you kill another innocent human being, your wife, the mother of your children?!? Her children are with her now in heaven while that coward Josh is roasting in hell.
Well said Andrew.. !!!!
There was blood all over the rug. She suffered. Look how he killed his kids.
Their family is LDS, which makes me most surprised and upset. Because Josh was basically betraying the trust of the church. I’m also LDS, so I understand how it is. I didn’t say you don’t though.
Since you have to wait until judgement day to go to heaven or hell, no I don't think he's roasting in hell or they're in heaven right now. We sleep in the grave until judgement day. Why do Christians believe that God will allow people in hell before judgement day, just to roast and roast. That's not what Gods like.
Why didn't her family get her out of this situation before it was too late. The father of these children reminds me of the father in Frederick, Colo recently. Narcissistic.
"Our wedding picture. *sigh*" That about says it all right there.
Steve Powell knows where the body was placed.

@clarissa Fowler Thank you for your comment. Women experiencing abuse can experience irritability, agitation, distress, anxiety, depression and mood disorders relative to the terror and violence, emotional or otherwise that they experience. It is well documented. I extend grace and kindness to Susan and assume your assessment is valid and that Susan may have been experiencing more abuse than she knew how to explain or articulate. I am so sorry for your loss, pain and suffering and especially for the insensitivity of online commenters who are uneducated about the severity of domestic violence (DV). She did this video at 4 am which also tells me she didn't feel safe doing while Josh was home during the day. People need to understand the level of stress women experience who are experiencing violence. Her father in law was also abusive to her in a sexually harassing way. She had NO protection. Our society and systems need to respond more quickly to the danger women face in DV relationships. It's very serious. Too many woman die while awaiting legal protections and help. Again, an aly and advocate and sympathizer for your loss and suffering. Sending love, compassion, empathy and healing for your entire family. I pray the world get answers. Susan Powell is Utah's poster child for the need for severe change to our systems. Love to you.
This is so sad seeing what she and her children were like as people, and then knowing what happened to them.
Susan sounded resigned.

This is the SADDEST MOST HEARTBREAKING thing I've seen.she 100% had a gut feeling of some sort! When she said...hopefully things will work out...her facial expression said it all 😢. I'm so sorry this happened to you & your babies 😔
Yea women really know how to pick them….
Born and raised up the street from their once was home. This story hits hard and continues to do so. I feel so much for Susan and her family, I hope one day we can find her and lay her to rest. What a sick man Josh Powell was. She was probably unhappy and wanted a happy life with her boys and he didn't like that so he took her out of this world. Nobody deserves to have their life taken by other people. May Susan and her boys Rest In Peace and hopefully they find her soon.

This is so terribly sad . My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Susan’s friends and family.
This is one of the heart rending story I have ever read.Now this video of Susan documenting assets just makes it even more horrific in light of what happened in the end.
I feel so bad for those children. i watched brave little Charlie in that interrogation video. Basically saying his dad did something terrible. I cant believe they gave those kids back to that monster.
They completely failed those boys and the poor little guy was saying I can’t talk to you. It’s just so heartbreaking. They should be alive and with a new tip that came forward they may have found her. I hope it’s her so she can be placed with her sons.
I lived in a abusive marriage 29 years. When staying is harder than leaving you will leave . My grandma told me.
This is so heart wrenching. I hope she is found to give her grief stricken family and friends closure. If you could have closure after something like this. ❤️
Who keeps a lockbox from their wife 🤔 my husband barely knows what were going to find in his pockets when they go in the wash. Very odd. He clearly had lots of evidence to destroy.
I feel bad for her I really do but after hearing a more in depth version of this story on the cold podcast it just baffles me why this woman stayed with him??? she was evening trying for another child???? and she was telling her friends that if anything happened to me it's my husband....its just crazy to me why anyone would stay in such a toxic situation and not expect something toxic not to happen.. idk it's just crazy to me..and it's not like she was alone she had family and friends she could have gone to.. sorry to be insensitive but it just really bothers me that Susan stayed with him
She stayed because he was breaking her down , at first it probably was just annoying, then hurtful, they she started questioning herself….. it sounds like she was beginning to question maybe it wasn’t her but him that had issues.
It's exhausting to try to get out of the situation she is in with him. She probably gave up and just decided all she could be is a devoted Mom. Once you are in an abusive relationship, it's so difficult to have insight on your situation.
Lotta people live like this and don’t get murdered. Don’t victim blame you ignorant buffoon
I watched Heavy D Sparks and Alan on their channels clearing out the mine that they thought she was in and that's how I first heard about this tragic incident. I wish they could have found her so her family could get some closure and she could be buried in a proper burial. I can't ever understand how or why a man can do these awful things to his family like this. I feel so so terrible for Susan and her little boys. And watching this knowing what happened to them was very hard to say the least. My most sincere and deepest condolences to Susan's family. I hope she is found soon.
Rest in peace Susan and her little boys. I'm so sorry..
They never said the didn't find her, they have evidence and they are sending it to get DNA tested.
They are heroes for looking for her
@@ironwolfgamingyt They literally did not find her. They found some pants that the dad thinks COULD have been Susan's. They could have belonged to literally anyone.
Thanks for the spoiler alert
@@twizz420 we won't know until they get the DNA testing back. If those ARE her pants, then there's still a chance she's down there.
Thanks so much for showing us Susan’s beautiful face. It guts me that she died at the hands of her hubby Josh along with sweet Charlie with her in the video and her younger son too. Rest in Power beautiful soul, and sweet Charlie, you were such an amazing big boy !!!
He was never a husband!
this is absurdly tragic ..on a side note who buys saws in massive supply? he must have been super crazy, did he think each room needed a saw? I feel bad for this family
foxmatrix25 and also drills ? They had a lot of stuff
A lot of people. Get out more
@@ohh2752lol absolutely not
it’s so hard to watch this knowing what happened to the poor woman and her kids... rest in peace
Oh okay. He cuts you off from buying Mary Kay, but then puts you into huge debt by buying expensive crap for himself. What an ass! RIP Susan. You deserved so much better.
This is strange. Why did Josh buy all of this stuff??? What was he doing??? What was he thinking??? It's beyond tragic what happened to this family.
Why did no one advise her to leave the stuff, grab the kids, and get out. She was in an impossibly difficult situation and needed someone to step in. I was in a very similar situation and left without a penny and have been paying for it financially ever since, but I know now that it was the right decision. Susan and her sons needed help, not legal advise on how to hold on to the marital assets. This unimaginable tragedy stands as a warning that safety should always come first.
Her husband would never let her take the kids and said he would kill her first. And so he did.
They couldn't kidnap her. Sounds like she was too scared to leave unfortunately.
Her story makes me so sad, I don’t know what she saw in him at all. I wish she was able to get away from him. 😭
Buying stuff on her credit card until he bankrupted it. What a manipulative move- now she has no credit and that makes it so much harder for her to leave.
Those buckets of food are a perfect example of how too many people waste their lives fearing the wrong thing. To date, not a single person has had to cope with a collapse of the ever-reliable American food supply. But how many are murdered every year by someone they know and trust?
This poor darling lady. She married an inadequate evil man whose father was as evil. What a shame she ever met him.
This video is so eerie to me. I am currently renting this house with roommates . The floral chandeliers and light fixtures are still here in the kitchen. The basement is finished now-two bedrooms, a living room area and a bathroom. With the exception of furnishings of course...not much has changed. :'(
Jessica Hobson Why on Earth would you rent this particular house?
jstdun Why not rent that house? Chances are that the rent there is probably a little cheaper because of the event that occured.
Jessica Hobson i thought josh burnt the house down along with killing himself & his children???
Hannah Dean He moved to a different house and did that. I thought he moved somewhere around his dad.
Was this thw home she stayed at when she went 'missing'. If it is theres a good chance he may have murdered her there. Doesn't bare thinking about what kind of life she had. You can tell she was in fear for her life making this video :(
She seems so weak disappointed and helpless, without any power anymore because of fighting with this sick man! It reminds me so much of myself
Her religion marriage kept her prisoner in that marriage.
Josh also threatened to take their sons away if she divorced him.
My X husband told me that he was planning to kill me and our infant daughter. I moved away and hid for a few years. I’ve never remarried, 45 years later.
I'm very happy youre still alive
This is so heartbreaking to watch. The sound of her voice sounds in distress as well. It's frustrating how someone can go on to act like he has some sort of an authority on your life and make you suffer with them.
It’s like he wasted her money on purpose so she would never be able to save up to escape.
Attorney should have advised her to grab her kids and get the hell out of there.
Eerie video.
This case hit me, for some reason; even before the tragic end. I still google for new details, from time to time. Information is trailing off, though.
the powell sister who supports steven and josh has a youtube channel with seven videos about the case. not too many people go there. they post under the name "susan powell."
There's a podcast called Cold that goes into lots of detail. It's new like 2018.
Check out Cold
I could hear the disappointment in her voice when she mentioned the wedding photo. I myself have escaped a desperate situation of abuse and coercive control. We need to stop teaching girls that their lives will be complete with the man, house and kids. It looks to me as if she bought into that dream. Only to be murdered by an abusive narcissistic monster.
then we need to get rid of religion cause thats why she married him
I wish that instead of taking the time to videotape all of those possessions, she had taken those two precious boys and gotten the heck out. She should have gone to her parents' house. None of the crap in that house was worth fighting over.
Given her credit and stuff I feel as if she was too scared to leave and wanted to divorce first.
REST IN PEACE SUSAN AND THEIR BEATIFUL CHILDREN
I'm listening to the Crime Junkie episode on this case. It's crazy looking at how she would openly talk like something was going to happen
Wonder what Josh had locked in that cabinet.
Poor sweetheart you can hear it in her voice. I came from a very abusive relationship where I couldn't sleep at night for fear of my life and my small children. At night I had to lock them in the basement bedroom so daddy couldn't get to them in the event that I accidentally fell asleep. So when she's snapping at her son it's called stress and exhaustion where every little sound makes your skin crawl. RIP Susan you have your little boys with you. They were spared a grim upbringing by their father who we all know would've gotten them back based on how this whole thing was handled.
I totally understand how tragic this whole story is.......but what kind of people would borrow over 3 grand from their parents "for a chair"??? Most folks borrow that kind of money from family or friends in an emergency, such as: getting a car or truck fixed, repairs or replacing things like a hot water heater, appliance, down payment on a car, purchasing some old beater car, help in paying for medical expenses, attorney's fees, heck, even posting bond to get someone out of jail...........but A CHAIR???
Oh she was a beautiful lady. Rest in peace all three. Does anyone know if she's been found by now?
no she hasnt
Wow this is insane
Nope. This case is up there for me with MH370. I hope both are found before I die.
Update! They MAY have found her. They pulled remains from an old mine shaft a few days ago and are being sent off for testing.
Creep
She was only telling the little boy to be quiet because she was making a video, we take offence because we know what happened to him.I wish she ran away from him but the law would have let her down like they did her children.
Aria Laurentiis she probably tried.she just sadly didn't make it. Domestic violence . Women face the most danger when they leave.
What happened to this family is horrible. I was married to a man like this also, always the children and I in a state of deprivation while he treated himself. He threatened to kill us all when I asked for a divorce and he got the children to lie about me and get full custody and me no contact. None of our five children will speak to me. Somehow the children gaslight me for everything their Dad did to them, while expecting some level of perfect from me no one can achieve, taking every flaw I have and magnifying it. They call me a monster. Everything he did they accuse me of. I am very blessed to be out of there, I got my mom out of there. My mom and I are together and safe. The children cutoff my entire side of the family. I can see similarities in the possessions and inequity. I had no belongings. What little I did have he purposely broke. Assets were split 90/10 in his favor and he broke my things and gave me broken things on purpose. 25 years of marriage, 9 pregnancies and 30 years of work with nothing to show for it. The children are very narcissistic and too toxic to be healthy to be around, plus they do not want anything to do with me. The children only want to hurt me.
I'm glad youre out and alive. its not worth it to bother with relationships with your kids if they are going to abuse you. your ex sounds just like josh powells dad steve. he turned all his ex wifes kids against her and left her broke and penniless
Hard to listen to Charlie carrying on in the back ground without a care in the world... Knowing what that monster did to him😥 Rip fellas
This poor woman had to deal with so much leading up to what has happened to her and her beautiful babies. It's obvious to me that Josh was a horrible person and a controlling husband who onky thought about himself. I hope Susan and her babies are together now on heaven and I hope Josh is rotting in hell for what he has done to his family.
Stevie LoveLess It’s such a sad case and the awful thing is that there are people who are trapped in abusive relationships everyday. And some of those cases end up in murder. I’ve warned people about sociopathic people in their lives but it falls on deaf ears. 😭
😔 I remember Susan and her boys. I wish there was more that could be done to help people get away from abusive relationships.
