Default The Josh Powell case

So much fail there. And it's too bad that they could never prove that he murdered his wife. That would have saved the lives of his children.

Cases like this make you feel like there is no justice in the world. But we have faith that there is justice in the next.

From the L.A. Times:

Quote:
Steve Downing told the Associated Press that the boys had begun talking about the snowy night in 2009 when Josh Powell loaded them into the family vehicle for a midnight camping trip. They said their mother was "in the trunk," and then disappeared after that, Downing said.

Powell's brother-in-law, Kirk Graves, said he believes Josh may have worried that his sons were divulging information about the night of his wife's disappearance that he didn't want known.

"I imagine that part of Josh's motivation was what could he do to hide that story, to avoid having to deal with the consequences of what he had done," Graves said in an interview with NBC's "Today" show.
