    Authorities late Sunday were trying determine the identity of a body found in the desert near Stockton.


    Tooele County Attorney Doug Hogan came across the remains about 5 p.m. while checking spring runoff in the area where his family runs a ranch, said Tooele County Sheriff's Lt. Travis Sharmann.


    Sharmann wouldn't say whether the body was male or female or how long it might have been there. "Right now we haven't been able to identify anything," he said.

    Deputies secured the area and were expected to return Monday morning.


    Searches for missing West Valley woman Susan Powell have been conducted in remote areas of Tooele County. Her husband Josh Powell told police he took his two young boys camping there Dec. 7, 2009, the night his wife disappeared. His story has been the subject of intense public scrutiny. Police called him a person of interest in the case.


    Sharmann said he was aware that people might be speculating that the remains found Sunday may belong to Susan Powell. He said that was one of the reasons authorities were withholding any details about the body until Monday afternoon.


    The discovery of the body is not related to the ongoing search for a Dugway Proving Ground soldier who went missing in Tooele County on May 8, said Wade Mathews, Tooele County Emergency Management spokesman.

    According to Nancy Grace, the area where this body was found is about halfway between where the family's home was, and the place where the husband claims he took the boys camping the night Susan disappeared.

    I hate when Nancy Grace gets involved in anything. I want to exonerate everyone just because I hate her so much.

    Human remains discovered over the weekend in the Utah desert, raising new speculation about the fate of missing 28-year-old mother of two Susan Powell, were confirmed on Tuesday as a young male.

    According to the Tooele County Sheriff’s Office, the state medical examiner is still working to determine the cause, time and other circumstances of his death.

    The grim discovery fuels the mystery surrounding Powell’s 2009 disappearance and opens a new case for authorities, who now need to determine what happened to the man whose remains were found in the same region on Sunday.

    They were ‘’badly decomposed and scattered throughout a wide area, possibly by wild animals,’’ said a news release from the sheriff’s office.

    Doug Hogan, Tooele County Attorney, found the bones in the area where his family owns ranch property.

    Bill Manion, medical examiner for Burlington County, New Jersey, told HLN’s Nancy Grace on Monday investigators would likely dig for more body parts.

    “The most important bones that they can find are the jaw and mandible, part of the skull, because if we have the teeth, we can be very, very accurate in identification,’’ Manion said.

    Josh Powell, Susan Powell’s husband, says he last saw his wife late on a cold December night as he and his two young sons left to go camping in the Tooele County desert area. Powell’s sister reported her as missing.

    A month later, Powell moved with his children to the state of Washington.

    Child porn charge on father-in-law of missing mom

    Steven Powell, 61, was arrested Thursday after police found thousands of images in his home

    TACOMA, Wash. — The father-in-law of a missing Utah woman was charged Thursday with voyeurism and possession of child pornography after police investigating her disappearance came across thousands of images of women videotaped without their knowledge, some of his daughter-in-law, Pierce County authorities said.
    Steven Powell, 61, was arrested at his Puyallup, Wash., home and set for arraignment Friday in Superior Court. Prosecutor Mark Lindquist said Powell was charged with 14 felony counts of voyeurism and one count of possession of child pornography. He said police found "thousands of images of females being videotaped without their knowledge, including Susan Powell," on tapes and discs seized from his home during an Aug. 25 search as part of their investigation into her disappearance.
    Powell is the father of Josh Powell, Susan's husband, who is the only named person of interest in his wife's disappearance. Josh Powell has never been arrested or charged in the case. The two live together in Washington.

    Susan Powell, a 28-year-old mother of two young children, was reported missing Dec. 7, 2009 when she didn't show up for her stockbroker job at a bank.

    "The photographer focuses on the women's buttocks, breasts," Lindquist said in a statement. "Many images were of minor females."
    The images included shots of two girls who were as young as 8 and 10 years old at the time, the prosecutor said.
    Pierce County authorities determined those girls lived near Steven Powell from June 2006 to August 2007.
    A person who answered the phone at the Powell home Thursday night hung up on a reporter.
    Josh Powell, husband of Susan Powell, has denied any involvement in her disappearance.

    Police have said Josh Powell has been uncooperative in the investigation into his missing wife. He claims he took the couple's two sons — then ages 4 and 2 — on a midnight camping trip in the mountains west of Salt Lake City on Dec. 6, 2009, the night before Susan Powell was reported missing.
    Authorities have spent the last 10 days searching a remote central Utah desert about 30 miles from where Josh Powell claims he went camping that night. At one point, they said they found a "shallow grave" after cadaver dogs alerted them to the spot, but they later found no human remains.
    The search of the Powell's home came after police wrapped up a search for evidence in a network of abandoned mines outside Ely, Nev.
    Around that time in August, Josh Powell and his father went on national television to discuss the case.
    They claimed Susan Powell was promiscuous, emotionally unstable and suicidal, a claim her family denies.
    Steven Powell said he had a flirtatious relationship with his daughter-in-law and believed they were in love.
    Susan's father, Chuck Cox, denied the allegations, and said it was Steve Powell who initiated unwanted sexual advances. Cox didn't return a telephone call Thursday night.
    Josh Powell has denied killing his wife or having anything to do with her disappearance.
    "I would never even hurt her," a tearful, red-eyed Josh Powell told CBS' Early Show in August.
    Josh and his father have said they believe Susan Powell ran off with another man.
    "I'm still thinking she left," Steve Powell told the AP in August. "Hopefully they'll be able to find her at some point ... We don't believe she's dead."

    Husband of Missing Utah Mom Susan Powell Temporarily Loses Custody of Children

    The husband of missing Utah mother Susan Powell is temporarily losing the right to care for his children after officials questioned whether he is responsible for his wife's disappearance.

    Josh Powell was in court Wednesday battling for custody of the couple's two sons, despite an accusation that he was the subject of a child porn investigation.

    A Washington state judge said that there is reasonable cause to believe the boys cannot be safely returned to the home of Josh Powell. Judge Kathryn Nelson ordered that the boys, ages 4 and 6, stay with Susan Powell's parents, Chuck and Judy Cox, although Josh Powell will have the ability to visit.

    Powell has not been charged in his wife's disappearance.

    During a separate hearing Tuesday, assistant attorney general for Child Protective Services, John Long, accused Josh Powell of being the subject of a pornography and voyeurism investigation, Komo News reports. Long also voiced concerns about Powell, including that he has been uncooperative with law enforcement.

    "It leads the state to believe that he is responsible for her disappearance," Long said.

    Police said they were trying to establish whether Josh Powell had anything to do with the thousands of images his father Steve Powell -- who is currently in jail awaiting trial -- allegedly captured of women and girls without their knowledge, according to the Salt Lake Tribune.

    Steve Powell pleaded not guilty to the child pornography and voyeurism charges in court last Friday and was remanded in custody awaiting trial.

    Chuck Cox filed for custody of the children the same day, arguing that his grandsons, who lived at Steve Powell's home in Puyallup, Wash., with their father, were at risk living in the same home as their now-jailed grandfather.

    More details emerged Wednesday about Steve Powell's past in a 1992 divorce case from Spokane County. Case documents reviewed by The Associated Press show Steve Powell's ex-wife accused him of keeping pornography, damaging his children's respect for marriage and inappropriately discussing sex issues with the kids.

    Terri Powell wrote in the divorce papers that Steve Powell talked of teaching his children about birth control methods when they were as young as 9 years old. Terri's sister, Becky Mulcahy, wrote in the documents that Steve Powell told her that he had shown his youngest children books about sexual intercourse when they were 6 and 8 years old.

    Terri Powell said her husband viewed people as animals and that they should be able to have sex with anyone at any time. She recalled a conversation in which Josh referred to a girl his brother, Johnny, liked. "All she is good for is her body, right Dad?" Terri recalled Josh saying.

    "Yeah, that's right," Steve Powell replied, according to the declaration.

    Terri Powell also said Steve Powell kept pornography in the home and that he visited pornography shops.

    Jennifer Graves, Josh Powell's sister, said in an interview with The Associated Press that she broke off ties with her father in part because of his problems with sex and pornography. She recalled going on a business trip with her father when she was about 11 years old and that he viewed a pornographic video while she was with him.

    "Looking back, I wonder if he was willing to do that with a 10-12 year girl -- his daughter -- in the room, what else would he be willing to do?" she said.

    Steve Powell has pleaded not guilty to 14 charges of voyeurism and one of possession of child pornography. He remains jailed on $200,000 bail. Prosecutors said that for at least a decade, he had been secretly filming women, including Susan Powell, and that he shot footage of two young neighbor girls as they took baths and sat on the toilet.

    Josh Powell immediately denied the child porn accusation Tuesday, telling the judge he never saw any pornography at the house and added that neither he nor his family would be posting bail for their father.

    He said he had provided a safe and happy home for his children since his wife's disappearance and argued that the children would be safer with him than the Cox family, who he accused of having a "clear hatred" for him.

    Powell is a person of interest in his wife's disappearance, but he has not been charged and insists he did nothing wrong. An assistant attorney general said during Wednesday's hearing that the state believes Powell is responsible for his wife's disappearance.

    Powell advocated without an attorney that it was in the best interest of the children for him to keep caring for them.

    Susan Powell was last seen on Dec. 7, 2009, when Josh Powell said he left their home in West Valley City, Utah, to take their two sons, then age 2 and 4, camping in freezing conditions. Josh Powell has been the only named person of interest in the case, but he has never been arrested or charged.

    Utah authorities searched an area near Topaz Mountain, 30 miles southwest of Simpson Springs, where Josh Powell said the camping trip took place. So far, however, they have only uncovered pieces of charred wood they believe may have been used to burn human remains.

    When I first read this, I had to go back and read the headline over like 5 times! What a fucking jerk! I am in total shock.If he could do this to his kids and himself, I can't imagine what he's done to Susan.

    wow that's sad the kids were suppose to stay with the grandparents until the end of july.

    Pierce County Superior Court Judge Kathryn J. Nelson ruled Charlie, 7, and Braden, 5, should remain with their maternal grandparents until at least the end of July. But what is a psychosexual evaluation and how could its results shape Josh Powell?s future?
