One week since her disappearance, police believe the search for Suzanne Clark Simpson may be coming to an end as evidence points them to a Southeast Side landfill.
Olmos Park Police Chief Fidel Villegas on Tuesday shared that message with the city’s residents.
“We feel confident that there is a good chance of recovering Suzanne at that location,” said Villegas.
Evidence, statements and solid police investigation has led us there.”
The search for Simpson moved to the landfill on Monday following searches last week in the wooded areas near her home in Olmos Park and in Boerne.
The search continues Tuesday, with excavators, golf carts and a mobile command unit on scene. Orange cones were placed in certain spots, and yellow tape marks off a designated area.
Multiple people, some wearing white jumpsuits, face masks and gloves, assist in the search.
“We ask that you pray [and] wish well for the family in the coming days. … We will do our very best to help the family and our incredible community.”
Simpson, 51, is a real estate agent and mother of four.
She was last seen at a birthday party at The Argyle on Sunday, Oct. 6 and later that evening a neighbor witnessed a physical altercation. Evidence of an assault on her has led to the arrest of her husband Brad Simpson, 53, who is now at the Bexar County jail.
On Sunday, ATF officials confirmed they placed a federal hold on Brad Simpson, meaning he’ll remain in federal custody. They did not say why a hold has been placed on him, but Villegas on Thursday said he remained ‘uncooperative.’
