Realtor Suzanne Simpson's home may be sold as her husband remains behind bars in a murder case.
In the San Antonio region, Suzanne and Brad Simpson resided with two of their offspring.
It is reported that Suzanne Simpson's home in Texas may be sold, as her husband remains in jail on a murder charge following her disappearance.
On Oct. 6, a 51-year-old mother of four disappeared after an alleged argument with her 22-year-old husband in front of their home in Olmos Park, San Antonio, according to the arrest affidavit for Brad Simpson.
On Friday, a junk hauler was spotted outside the Simpson residence, removing items from the house, as reported by News 4 San Antonio.
Barton Simpson, Brad Simpson's brother, revealed to the outlet that the home might be put up for sale "perhaps in the next year."
""We need to clean up the property so that it can be rented or sold, as the family will not be residing there," he said."
Brad and Suzanne Simpson resided in the Olmos Park house with their two offspring, aged 5 and 15.
Reports of an "abusive" marriage have emerged since the start of the investigation, providing a detailed account of what happened in the months leading up to Suzanne's disappearance.
On the night of Oct. 6, a neighbor who was directly across the street observed Brad and Suzanne arguing loudly and physically struggling in his front yard. The neighbor saw that Ms. Simpson was trying to escape Mr. Simpson's grasp as he tried to pull her downwards, and that Brad was chasing after his wife and trying to grab her, according to documents.
Across from his home, in a wooded area, screams were heard later by the neighbor.
On Oct. 6, Brad Simpson, 53, allegedly pushed his 5-year-old daughter against the wall, hit her mother on the face, and hurt her mother's elbow inside their residence, as well as turned off her mother's phone during an argument.
Suzanne Simpson disclosed to her personal banker a few months ago that she was being physically abused by her husband, who would frequently take her cellphone away and threaten to look for her in a lake, according to documents.
Suzanne informed the banker that her husband would convey to their children that she had misplaced her cellphone following his removal of it from her possession.
Before Suzanne went missing, Brad sent a text message to a woman, expressing his regret over grabbing her phone and driving off. He admitted that he didn't know her passcode and got locked out, which forced him to return the phone. Despite this, he stated that he had no intention of looking through her phone or anyone else's, referring to these devices as the "Devil."
Suzanne was aware that her husband would track her and was extremely jealous, as the female later told authorities.

Chandler Simpson, the 20-year-old daughter of the Simpsons family, has shared her thoughts on the case through an Instagram post. In her post, she wrote, "My mother was a victim of abuse from my father. He took her life in a fit of rage and control."
""I will not stop speaking out until my mother is found, and I will always be the voice for victims of domestic abuse and assault," she declared in her post."
On Nov. 7, authorities charged Brad with the murder of his wife.
Barton Simpson stated to Planet Chronicle Digital that while it is sad, it brings our family some comfort knowing that authorities have enough evidence to proceed with charges.
"By acknowledging that Suzanne is no longer with us, we can start the challenging process of grieving and move forward with rebuilding our lives, particularly for the sake of our children and family members."
The charges against Brad for assault causing bodily injury, family violence, and unlawful restraint, which were initially filed on October 6th, have been dropped. Instead, the Bexar County District Attorney's Office is now pursuing a higher first-degree felony charge, according to My San Antonio.
According to the outlet, Brad Simpson's attorney, Steven Gilmore, is requesting an examining trial, which is a trial before a judge where evidence is presented to determine if there is enough evidence to proceed with the prosecution process.
"According to the outlet, the motion for examining trial states that the matter has not been reviewed by The Grand Jury to this date. As a result, pursuant to Article 16.01, Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, Brad Simpson is entitled to an examining trial to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to justify presenting the matter to the Grand Jury."
Brad Simpson is still in Bexar County jail, and his bond hearing has been postponed until December 19. His lawyer was not immediately available for comment.
