Attorney makes final plea for Susan Powell records

Chuck and Judy Cox, Susan Powell's parents, want to know what West Valley police knew about the case and when — and in particular what — they knew about Josh Powell's possible involvement. They question whether police had enough information to make an arrest, which they say may have helped them find their daughter and would have prevented the tragic deaths of their grandsons Charlie and Braden.

Bremner met with Chuck Cox Tuesday morning in Washington.

"He's getting really frustrated with how everything has been so difficult all the way around from the get-go," she said.

Bremner has already put the Washington Department of Social and Health Services on notice that she and another attorney intend to file a $20 million civil lawsuit against them for alleged negligence in their supervision of Charlie and Braden.

Bremner, who also represents the two young girls who were victimized by Steven Powell in a voyeurism case, has also filed a civil lawsuit against Steven Powell, Josh Powell's father. He is currently serving a 30-month prison sentence after being convicted in May of 14 counts of voyeurism.
