Missing mom case: Cops subpoena TV interviews with Susan Powell's husband

West Valley City police want copies of Joshua Powell's interviews with television reporters.

Three stations confirmed police have asked for copies of Powell's interviews, including any excerpts which have not been broadcast. ABC Channel 4 reported in a news story Friday it had received a subpoena for the footage.

Con Psarras, vice president for news at KSL, did not know whether his station had yet been served with a subpoena. But Psarras said a West Valley City detective called him Friday to say he wanted copies of KSL's interview with Powell.

Psarras said KSL has broadcast all of its interview with Powell online or on television and anticipates giving copies to police.

"I'm not sure what the principle will be [in fighting a subpoena] because what we have, we've aired," Psarras said.

Powell's wife, Susan Powell, has been missing since Dec. 7. Joshua Powell said he last saw her at 12:30 a.m. that day when he took their two young sons on a camping trip.
