The husband of a missing Texas woman has been charged with murder in connection with her disappearance. Fifty-three-year-old Brad Simpson was charged Thursday in Bexar County, where he is jailed on a total of $5 million in bonds on charges of murder, unlawful restraint, assault, tampering with evidence and possession of a prohibited weapon.
The husband of a Texas woman who has been missing for more than a month has been charged with murder, according to court and jail records.
An attorney for Simpson, who was first arrested in early October on the unlawful restraint and assault charges, did not immediately return a phone call Friday for comment. Authorities have searched, without success, for Suzanne Simpson in a wooded area near the couple’s home, as well as a local landfill, and an area where Brad Simpson was arrested.
Brad Simpson’s brother, Barton Simpson, who has previously criticized his brother for failing to cooperate with authorities, said in a statement to San Antonio media that he appreciates law enforcement’s efforts in the investigation.
