Coxes talk about Steven Powell trial in Fox News interview
Posted on: 4:36 pm, May 13, 2012

 ::snipping2::
The Coxes originally believed that the voyeurism charges against Steven Powell focused on Susan, but the case is specific to voyeuristic images of women and girls in his neighborhood allegedly taken by Steven.
 
But they still hope that Steven will say something during the trial that would help in the search for their daughter.
 
“We thought the case should have taken measures to question all the members of that family. That didn’t happen. Now with Josh gone and the kids gone. Our chances of Steve saying something is not great,” said Chuck Cox.
 
Steven is not expected to testify during the trial against him, which resumes Monday.

You're welcome, siister!

It doesn't look like the Coxes are going to get any information about Susan from this trial.  Maybe if he is found guilty and has to serve a long sentence, he might give up some information; but I'm not counting on it.  Sad.

I sure hope the good people of that state correct the laws so that it become illegal to take photos of a child in the nude without the knowledge and consent of their parents.  This is a terrible case of injustice.  You know their daddy would love 5 minutes alone with the POS.

Jury to hear closing arguments in Steve Powell voyeurism case
Court » Verdict could be reached as soon as Tuesday afternoon.
First Published 51 minutes ago • Updated 11 minutes ago

Tacoma, Wash. • Closing arguments are slated to begin Tuesday morning in the voyeurism trial for the father-in-law of missing Utah woman Susan Powell.
 
Pierce County Court Judge Ronald E. Culpepper was giving jurors instructions just after 10 a.m. MST. Opening arguments will follow. During those arguments, jurors may for the first time hear a defense theory in the case.

Defense attorneys representing Steve Craig Powell on Monday rested without calling any witnesses. But on cross-examination, attorney Travis Currie centered many of his questions on the other people living in Powell’s home at the time the images at issue were taken.
 
Steve Powell, 62, is accused of filming two young neighbor girls while they were using the bathroom and in various stages of undress. The girls were ages 9 and 8 when the photos were taken in 2006; they are 15 and 13 now.
 
Judge Ronald E. Culpepper on Monday afternoon declined a request to dismiss 12 of the 14 counts filed against Powell. The defense had argued the counts were duplicative as they involved the same criminal conduct.
 
Powell’s estranged daughter, Jennifer Graves, testified Monday that in 2006, her brothers Michael and John were both living at Steve Powell’s home, as well as her sister, Alina. During cross-examination of Graves, the defense seemed to be suggesting that John, who has a history of mental illness, could have been the one who took the photos.

Posted on: 8:26 am, May 15, 2012, by Ben Winslow, updated on: 10:21am, May 15, 2012

UPDATE 9:20 a.m. PST: Prosecutors have decided not to pursue an aggravating factor for invasion of privacy in the jury deliberations. That could shave some time off of a potential sentence, if Steven Powell is convicted.
 
The jury was summoned into the room. They were handed the jury instructions.
 
“Your decision as jurors must be made solely upon the evidence that was presented in these proceedings,” Judge Culpepper told them.
 
The judge cautioned them to consider only the evidence and testimony. The jury cannot control the sentence, nor should that be a factor in deliberations. Judge Culpepper also reminded the jury that the burden of proof is on the state. Steven Powell is not required to testify, nor can that be used against him, the judge told the jury.
 
The judge went through the charges of voyeurism and the definitions of invasion of privacy, intent, and photographing.

Posted on: 8:26 am, May 15, 2012, by Ben Winslow, updated on: 11:01am, May 15, 2012

UPDATE 9:56 a.m. PST: “This is a case about a secret. It is a secret no longer because now the entire world knows of Mr. Powell’s secret,” prosecutor Grant Blinn began his closing statements.
 
The victims felt “safe and secure” in the privacy of their homes, Blinn said, but Steven Powell was “lurking in the shadows.”
 
“There is nothing more disturbing to a teenage girl than knowing the middle-aged man next door was taking pictures,” Blinn told the jury.
 
He outlined the evidence and testimony to the jury, saying no one else but Steven Powell would have interest in it and the only one who could take photographs of it would be him. Blinn re-read the journal entry written by Steven Powell that was allowed in court, proclaiming that it was “coming back to haunt him.”
 
The prosecutor described in detail the self-pictures that Steven Powell allegedly took, the looping of images of the alleged victims.
 
He ended by showing pictures of the girls to the jury, one at a time. Some jurors appeared to grimace as Blinn showed the voyeuristic images, urging them to “find him guilty.”

We are often asked how we can deal with everything. Our answers are always the same, first we don't have a choice, 2nd we have the support and prayers of thousands of good people around the world, and we know that God knows where Susan is, and that God is just and is in control.
Sometimes innocent people suffer due to the actions of evil people, in which case the suffering of the innocent will serve to convict the guilty when they face the Lord to answer for their lives and actions on this Earth.

We belive that Susan will be found and that those responsible will answer for their actions.

Jurors handed Steven Powell voyeurism case
Posted on May 15, 2012 at 9:55 AM
Updated today at 10:55 AM

The jury in Steven Powell's voyeurism trial began deliberations Tuesday.
 
Closing arguments ended before 11:00 a.m. Powell is charged with 14 counts of felony voyeurism, accused of taking pictures of girls and women without their knowledge across Washington. He has not spoken to detectives and will not testify in his own defense.
 
Evidence used by prosecutors included photos of young girls in bathrooms, girls changing clothes and at least one video of Powell allegedly touching himself. The photo corresponding to each charge was shown once again to jurors during the prosecution's closing arguments.
 
Defense attorneys argued reasonable doubt exists and that, "this case is not about what you feel, it's about what you know."
 
Prior to closing arguments, Pierce County Judge Ronald Culpepper provided jurors instructions on reaching a verdict. Culpepper said the jury must reach a decision based on evidence, not emotions.
 
Jurors were reminded they will have to reach a unanimous verdict on all 14 charges. Culpepper said a guilty verdict would mean jurors believe pictures were used for sexual gratification, and taken without permission of someone in a place where privacy is expected.

Posted on: 8:26 am, May 15, 2012, by Ben Winslow, updated on: 12:25pm, May 15, 2012

UPDATE 10:41 a.m. PST: “This case is not about what seems to be reasonable,” defense attorney Travis Currie told the jury. “A criminal case is about what has been proved.”
 
Throughout his closing statements Currie hammered at the prosecution’s case, insisting prosecutors have not met their burden of proof. At times gesturing wildly, he gave an animated defense.
 
He reminded the jury that the defense does not have to give a defense, nor does Steven Powell have to testify.
 
“Beyond a reasonable doubt is UP HERE!” he said, stretching himself and raising his hands above the jury box.
 
Currie suggested the pictures may not have been taken for sexual gratification. He also said there was no evidence that the disc seized by police was Steven Powell’s.
 
“They found a disc in a box in what we’ve heard is his bedroom,” Currie said.
 
Currie asked why there was no fingerprints on the disc or the box, or why the police never presented pictures into the neighbor’s house from the Powell home. He urged the jury to set aside emotion and “use your head.”
 
“There’s an alternative explanation for what happened here,” he told the jury. “You have to acquit.”
 
In rebuttal, Blinn emphasized the evidence presented against Steven Powell: the images, the journal entry and other things that pointed to him. Blinn said there were prints on the disc, “his digital prints.” He said the camera model matched the pictures on the disc.
 
“Is it possible there’s some explanation? Is it possible men from Mars came down and created these images?” Blinn told the jury sarcastically. “This defendant, Steven Powell, is guilty of 14 counts of voyeurism.”
 
The judge excused jurors 13 and 14 (they were alternates). The jury began deliberations.

UPDATE 12:08 p.m. PST: The jury took a break for lunch. They were asked to resume deliberations about 1 p.m. PST.
 
UPDATE 11:30 a.m. PST: Anne Bremner, the attorney for Susan Cox Powell’s family and the victims in the Steven Powell voyeurism case, said she was informed by West Valley City police that her request to view investigative files in Susan’s disappearance has been denied.
 
After a story FOX 13 aired last week on the records, West Valley City police responded. Bremner told us last week she was contemplating a possible lawsuit if West Valley City police denied her records request.
 
Pierce County Sheriff’s detectives have granted her request.

A smile in a photo ... in a home video ... does not necessarily reflect what is in the heart.  For the sake of appeasing Josh ... Susan may have put on a "happy" face but ... her writings in journals and emails reveal her loathing for her FIL.

Susan Powell Home Videos Show Her With Josh, Steven Powell Before Disappearance
May 15, 2012


Susan Cox Powell was pleasant and warm toward her father-in-law Steven Powell before she disappeared in 2009, in contrast to allegations that she was very wary of him, according to a new website featuring home videos and songs of the Powell family.

The website, titled West Valley and Pierce County Malfeasance, was released today exclusively to ABCNews.com by Steven Powell's daughter, Alina Powell.

It was unveiled on the same day that her father's trial on voyeurism charges went to the jury. Steven Powell is accused of filming and photographing two girls, ages 8 and 12, as they used the bathroom in the home behind Steven's house.

The site aims to show the Powells' side of a two-and-a-half year feud with Susan's parents, as well as between the Powells and the police departments that investigated Susan's disappearance.

Alina Powell said that the videos on the new website won't affect the outcome of her father's case, but are intended to begin offering another side of the Susan Powell story to those who are interested.

"The trial will conclude (today) one way or another," she said. " I waited to put things out so as not to interfere with dad's case, but I've long been tired of seeing people say things they don't really know anything about. (The website) is just kind of to start putting the truth and balance into this stuff."
