RSSSteven Powell, Father-in-Law of Missing Susan Powell Arrested for Possessing Child Porn … Missing Utah Mom’s Kids in State Custody
Susan Powell has been missing since 2009; however, it appears that there are big happenings have exploded in this missing persons case.
Steven Powell, the 61 year old father-in-law of missing Susan Powell was arrested and accused of secretly videotaping Susan Powell and young girls taking baths and sitting on the toilet. Steven Powell pleaded not guilty on Friday and his bail has been set bail at $200,000 and ordered him not to have contact with his grand sons. Steven Powell is charged with child pornography possession and 14 felony counts of voyeurism.

They said Utah police investigating Susan Powell’s disappearance found “thousands of images of females being videotaped without their knowledge, including Susan Powell,” on tapes and disks at his home in an Aug. 25 search.
The videos were found in Steven Powell’s bedroom. Prosecutors said the images were of women’s buttocks and breasts and included minors. The images included shots of two girls who were as young as 8 and 10 years old at the time, authorities said. They determined that the girls lived near Steven Powell from June 2006 to August 2007.
The children of missing Susan Powell are now in state custody.
They are in state custody as the paternal grandfather they lived with in Washington state sits in jail, accused of possessing child pornography and secretly videotaping their mother, other women and naked neighbor girls.
Now, the family of the boys’ mother, Susan Powell, who has been missing since 2009, is for the first time publicly accusing their father of being involved in her disappearance. On Friday, they asked, for the first time, to get immediate custody of the boys, ages 4 and 6.
The case of missing Susan Powell just got more bizarre. Could Susan Powell become aware of the pics of herself and other young girls, thus the reason why someone wanted her to disappear permanently? According to reports, some of the victims have been identified as children who used to live near Steven Powell and are as young as 7. Yikes, this perv even labeled the folders of the pics he was taking of underage girls.
“We found many pictures of young girls as young as, we believe, 7 years old in explicit positions,” Pierce County sheriff’s spokesman Ed Troyer said, adding that the photos appeared to have been taken through a window from outside the home with a telephoto lens.
“They’re pictures he shouldn’t have taken – pictures of girls in showers, on toilets, in the bath. He’s basically a peeping Tom with high-end camera equipment.”
Rebecca Stover of the Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office later said in a statement that some of the images and videos were organized into subfolders, including “Taking bath-1,” “Taking bath-2,” and “Open window in back house.”
UPDATE I: Parents of Missing Susan Powell Says Child Porn Arrest Proves Father-in-law is a liar.
Not only does it appear that Steven Powell, the father-in-law of missing Susan Powell, is a perv, but also a liar. Previously, Steven Powell claimed that Susan was “very sexual” with him. That can pretty much be called for what we pretty much knew, a lie. What a creepy SOB.
“I do think it vindicates my daughter, and what we’ve said about her and it clearly shows that he had motive to detract from her reputation,” Cox said today on “Good Morning America.”
Susan Powell’s husband, Josh Powell, is the lone person of interest in the woman’s December 2009 disappearance, and the case has created a bitter rift between the two families.

oh god. I just read through all of Steve Chantrey’s lyrics (Steve Powell’s website for his “Steve Chantrey” singer persona) and “about me” blurb. ………………. Plus an examiner.com article on Steve’s pursuit of Susan. Plus Steve and Josh Powell’s weird webpage susanpowell.org……I feel ill.
OMG!!!! This guy is beyond perverted.
I hope he had not harmed her, or her children for that matter. Is he being investigated as well? Is there any new evidence on her husband?
So, so, awful and there’s not enough words to express this sick pr[edit].
she is probably dead.
if she were a good mother, she would not have left her boys behind, knowing what kind of men these two are.
i pray for her and especially her young sons.
we are living in such depraved times, is the end nearer than we think?
The nerv of yet another P.E.R.V.
Loving the thought of how he’ll get his in the can, but even this is not enough restitution for the havoc he wreaked upon the innocent.
To Echo Red…there is NO SUCH THING as REHABILITATION for Scumbags like these. You can say it till the Cows come home or until it sinks in—twisted deranged losers like this HAVE NO CHANCE at recovering or becoming productive members of society— EVER!
Peace Out to the Loser and let’s call it a day.
thanks for editing my word there…much appreciated.
when I heard his comments on a tv interview my stomach turned ~ what a sick “o” (rather than an edit)
NG,and Red ~ You’re so right and spot on about the rehab factoid… I’d personally like the judges, lawyers, the lawmakers comment on how’d they feel having this guy or ones like him living next door to their kids after they’ve been caught, released into society to prey again and again and again on the innocent. Catch & release does not work.
There appears to be a much more sordid past and story of the son/father connection here and as for the children, I do pray they get to go to their late Mothers family… and bless them ~ her Father is remarkable. Not only detracting from her reputation, the guy was projecting everything he was doing to her, believing it was the other way around… yuk.
Hi, Kitty:
Editing aside, this is one of those instances when the adjectives we use out loud to describe these types of pervs are spot on.
Twisted individuals deserve twisted words. No worries ! =)
Hey NG ~ good hearing from you~ he is just that.
I feel so sad for her parents and her children, bless them all.
Wonder if the hubby got ticked off because of his fathers passes to his wife and took it out on her or if they both did something to her?.
Hi, kitty—glad to see you still kicking around here as well.
Yes, your theory is a decent one. Still giving them hell up on Beacon Hill?
Never give up speaking for the VICTIMS, their FAMILIES and their rights. With everything currently going on is MASS (Deportation issues Patrick won’t budge on) more EDUCATED (in our great Colleges) PROFESSIONAL TERRORIST plots with RESIDENTS being bungled, DiMasi (the list goes on of corrupt Politicians in our State) and the poor economy….
…..(Cont’d to kitty)
…….it’s no wonder we are still drawing breath!
Just keeping it real, Sister.
We won’t give in.
=) Take Good Care and enjoy beautiful Fall in New England–
New Girl Boston (Gail)
Steven powell you are one SICK BASTARD!!!! Hope you can soon join your son in Hell where you belong as well!!!!!
