Friends and family of a missing Texas realtor released new photos of the missing woman hoping they’ll help searchers find her.
Suzanne Clark Simpson, a 51-year-old mom of four, was last seen outside outside her home in Olmos Park a week ago, as CrimeOnline previously reported. A neighbor saw her and her husband, Brad Simpson, arguing at that point. She had previously been seen at a private dinner club in Alamo Heights between 6 and 9 p.m.
Clark Simpson’s husband, Brad Simpson, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with assault causing bodily injury-family violence and unlawful restraint.
An affidavit filed with the arrest said that a neighbor heard the Simpson’s arguing between 10 and 11 p.m. on Sunday and looked outside to see Clark Simpson trying to get away from her husband, who pulled her down. The neighbor saw the couple walking westbound on the street and went outside after hearing two screams. An hour later, the neighbor saw Brad Simpson drive away in his GMC pickup truck and return an hour or two later.
On Monday, the school where one of the children attended contacted Brad Simpson when no one picked the child up. The child told school staff that her parents had been fighting, her father took her mother’s phone, and her mother had a bruise on her elbow. Investigators brought Simpson in for an interview but found him uncooperative. He failed to show for a second interview and instead drove to a ranch in Kendell County, where he was arrested.
Brad Simpson has not been charged in connection with his wife’s disappearance.
He was brought back to Bexar County on Thursday and given bonds totaling $2 million. Federal authorities placed a hold on him on Friday. A US Marshals Service spokesperson told KSAT that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives is conducting an investigation but had no information about that investigation. An ATF spokesperson said the agency is assisting other agencies in the case.
Multiple agencies have been involved in the search for Clark Simpson, but the Texas Department of Public Safety said it had no large searches planned for this weekend.
