that first 911 operator (the male) was appalling. I hope he feels like absolute shit.

I just listened to the first recording and listening to the rest of them now. I agree the first 911 dispatcher sounded like he was ridiculous, sounded like he had been interrupted from his video games and couldn't be disturbed and i have to say that the social worker kept her calm because i would have lost it when he kept asking questions like what was his last name and what was his first name after she repeated it numerous amount of times. I understand it's probably a formality but he could of had units on the way. This stuff pisses me off. Unrelated but when i was hit by a drunk driver it took 45 minutes for police to show up and i had to call 911 and i was told the same thing priority first and when i called for the third time i said the lady is drunk and she's gonna drive off when the hell is someone gonna show up and bam they finally showed up in 2 minutes. Another time i saw a small aircraft show up and 911 was busy several times and then no one answered 3 times... this was back in 1999 but still i live in this state that this happened and definitely feel that 911 in this state can use some training. It kills me to hear the 911 operator say, priority first, life and death and we all know how this ends... i am sure the 911 operator feels like one of the biggest assholes and that isn't the word to describe this but the word i chose.
Seeing how long that length of the first conversation was it is hard not to feel that something could have been done but i also know how the terrain is and how difficult it would have been to locate the home depending on how far away someone was and then what the protocol is for entering a home where a gas leak or gas smell has been reported. It is just sad all around. Josh Powell is a disgusting pig and was a waste of human space, it is sad that he felt he couldn't live without his sons so why did he have to die with them and not let them live without him. He wasn't going to live without them, he wasn't going to live at all that was his plan... so why take them with him, they could have had a better life with their grandparents and him out of their life. I just hope he didn't do any of the things that were found on his computer and the computer generated images that were made. I'm sick to my stomach.

I am glad those bikkies turned up! Thank God for them. So do they call themselves 'protectors of children' as part of their name?
I don't think you would have had to worry about protestors with those boys on the scene. God bless them.

You called the biker protection right aussie - glad they turned up. Sad that there was a need for them, but I haven't seen reports of any protests at the services.
I am curious what LE will find when they examine what they recently removed from Josh's storage unit. Hopefullly something that leads to Susan. Hopefully.

I didn't call them. But somebody did. They wouldn't have been there if there wasn't a threat of the wackos turning up.

No, I meant that you accurately predicted that they may be called in to deter the protests. There definitely was a real threat that the whackos would turn up. What they said and did when Elizabeth Edwards died was reprehensible.
If Josh Powell's family announces services for his death, I can see more drama. I hope they keep it private; he's gotten way more attention on this earth than he deserves, in my opinion.

hopefully the bathroom won't be large enough to handle the large crowds that would attend the flushing of his remains into the sewer system of Utah or Washington.

stinking powells have no shame or decency.
Denver Post
SEATTLE—Josh Powell's surviving relatives want him buried at the same cemetery as the two young sons he killed, the city manager in Puyallup said Wednesday.
Powell's relatives visited the public Woodbine Cemetery and selected a plot about 25 feet away, just across a road from the boys, City Manager Ralph Dannenberg told The Associated Press. They haven't paid for it yet, and any sale is being put on hold because the parents of Powell's missing wife have promised legal action.
"We don't have any rules or procedures regarding refusing plots to anyone," Dannenberg said. "We're going to wait to see what the outcome is in court."

If one of my children, God forbid, ever did something so heinous to their spouse or children, I would acquiesce to the wishes of the other family. Why cause even more grief? Do any of the Powells have any common decency?

A Washington state sheriff and his sergeant purchased burial plots to prevent Josh Powell's family from having him buried next to his two sons.
"The bottom line is, Josh Powell will not be near those two boys," Pierce County Sheriff's Sgt. Ed Troyer said in an interview with Seattle radio's Ron and Don Show.
Powell's remaining relatives wanted him buried near sons Charlie and Braden, who died when Powell blew up his home on Feb. 5, according to MSNBC.
Troyer, who used his personal money to buy the burial plots with Sheriff Paul Pastor, then Tweeted, "Crime Stoppers just purchased the cemetery plots next to the Powell boys. We own the plots on both sides of the single grave the boys are in."
Powell's relatives had visited the Woodbine Cemetery and selected a plot about 25 feet from where the boys were laid to rest, City Manager Ralph Dannenberg told the Associated Pres.
Charlie, 7, and Braden, 5 – the sons of Josh and missing wife Susan – were celebrated in a memorial service in front of more than 1,500 people on Saturday.
"For [Josh] to be buried near those kids is just unthinkable," Anne Bremmer, the lawyer of Susan's parents Charles and Judy Cox, told the Associated Press. "For god's sake, for them to lose Susan first, and then the boys, and now this? Just give these people a break."

I don't always agree with Ms. Bremmer, but I think she's right on this time. Enough is enough with the Powells.
Very cool that LEOs bought the plots surrounding the boys. Checkmate.

It would be nice for Susan to be buried there next to the boys if they ever find her. This whole thing is heart breaking.

Troyer said that while he probably could not stop josh powell from being buried in the public cemetery, he could at least ensure the killer was not laid to rest next to his murdered sons. he should instead be eaten by rats and dung beetles.
Meanwhile, josh powell's filthy pedo jailed father filed court papers saying he would not cooperate with investigations being conducted by law enforcement agencies, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
Charlie and Braden Powell were buried at the Woodbine Cemetery on Saturday following their funeral. (Pierce County Sheriff's Office/Ed Troyer)
If you want to help pay back Crime Stoppers Tacoma-Pierce County and be part of the plots purchase, you're encouraged to donate to Crime Stoppers. You can send a check directly to Crime Stoppers of Tacoma-Pierce County at 6824 19th St. W. #139 in University Place, WA 98466.
"This would keep that which is unacceptable from taking place," said Pastor. He added that he'll personally be sending out thank-you notes to anyone who donates, letting them know about the important role they've played in keeping Powell away from Charlie and Braden.
Troyer said the cost of the plots and plaques they plan to erect is about $4,000 to $5,000.
"We weren't too worried about the price. We know people will step up and donate toward it," Troyer said.
He added that if the boys' missing mother, Susan Powell, is found dead, they will gladly give up a plot so she will be forever near her sons.

A cement cover is placed on top of an empty grave that has been reserved for Josh Powell up the hill, but not alongside the boys' grave. (above)
just throw him in the hole and urinate over him.
new: SEATTLE -- A lawyer for the parents of missing Utah mom Susan Powell says they have been told her husband will not be buried in the same cemetery as the two sons he killed in an explosive house fire.
Attorney Steve Downing says he was informed by Josh Powell's estranged sister, Jennifer Graves, that her mother would put out a statement Thursday announcing the decision.
Downing says Susan's parents, Charles and Judy Cox, had threatened to move the boys' casket if Josh Powell were interred nearby.
