WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah (AP) — Friends and family of a Utah woman missing since December have decorated her empty home as a public reminder that information is still needed in the case.
Susan Powell was last seen at home on Dec. 7. Her husband, Josh Powell, told police he saw his wife about 12:30 a.m. as he left with the couple’s young sons for a winter camping trip.
Josh Powell has been called a person of interest in the case. He moved away from Utah weeks ago to stay with family in Washington state.
On Wednesday, about two dozen local relatives and friends tied purple ribbons on the Powells’ West Valley City home and taped messages like “We love you Susan” and purple hearts on its doors.
Organizer Kiirsi Hellewell says the decorations are intended to renew public attention on the case.
