WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah
Josh Powell, the husband of a West Valley City woman who has been missing since Dec. 7, has returned to Utah after moving to Washington state with his two sons on Jan. 11. John Hellewell, a friend of Powell, told FOX 13 News he is back in Utah to find tenants to live in his West Valley City house.
Hellewell said Powell has spoken very little about his wife and his new life in Washington, and that Powell is still holding out hope that Susan will be found.
"He called me last week some time [and] said he was going to be coming back and asked if I would pick him up," Hellewell said. "Originally, he was planning on coming back on Tuesday, but he said he hadn't gotten around to gettting a flight booked."
Friends say there are still several pieces of furniture inside the house, and that Josh plans to finish the basement and deck.
Powell remains the only person of interest in the disappearance of Susan Powell, and police say he has not been cooperative.
Investigators are aware Powell is back in West Valley City and they would like to talk to him.
