On a hunch I called the police jurisdiction in Utah that has been investigating the disappearance of Susan Powell. I asked if they had communicated information about Joshua Powell to our children's services and they said that in fact they had. They were worried about the well being of the two young sons. The release is dated Feb. 1, 2012, the date of the placement hearing.
What I thought was so interesting is that it wasn't enough to send WA State the information, but that the Utah police felt they needed to send out a press release about having done so. It is almost like they felt they had to let the public know....so the public could demand attention that the police in Utah felt would not be accomplished in WA State. For some reason, West Valley City, Utah police wanted attention to the fact they had sent information....like they were worried it would not make a hill of beans difference to the authorities on Washington.... Yeah.
In the mean time it is day two and I still do not have a copy of the information sent.

Dear madame Senator,
It so puzzles me..The WVPD has had this information for close to two years.
Why did not WVPD put the children in protective custody?
How did WVPD find out about the custody hearing in Washington State? Why was it only then that they decided to release it?
If WVPD was so concerned about the children..
What was their reasoning of with holding the infomation about the things found on Mr. Powell's computer until February 1, 2012? Just before the custody hearing.
Where was WVPD's concern earlier?
The original psyc eval wasn't a bad one. It wasn't until just before the custody hearing that the psyc evaulator was presented with WVPD's information..again released to him on February 1,2012.
Was it because they wanted to throw this evaluator under the bus?After all..WVPD with held this information..again for two years.
Was it because the "Department" wanted to procure a different outcome?.
No one can come to the proper conclusions unless all information is looked at by many eyes.
There is something about this case that raises many red flags. I hope you can see where I am going with this.
If there was so much concern about Mr. Powell and his children..What was WVPD's reluctance with not sharing information with the "Department" sooner.
Who knew what and when?
This does not pass the sniff test.
