Suzanne Simpson murder case: Texas defense for missing Realtor's husband looking for holes in evidence trove

A Texas real estate agent named Suzanne Simpson disappeared more than five months ago in an affluent neighborhood in San Antonio. Legal representatives are still organizing evidence as her spouse faces charges of murder without her body being recovered.

Suzanne Simpson, a 51-year-old mother of four, went missing on October 6, 2024, following an alleged altercation with her husband of 22 years outside their residence in Olmos Park, San Antonio. Authorities suspect Brad Simpson of deliberately causing Suzanne’s death on or around the mentioned date.

Brad Simpson is accused of multiple charges including murder, evidence tampering, aggravated assault, and illegal possession of weapons in connection to his wife’s disappearance and presumed death. A court appearance scheduled for Wednesday to provide an update on the case had been postponed from February.

Both prosecutors and Simpson’s defense attorney said during a Feb. 12 hearing they would need more time to go through discovery in the case. Prosecutors were still sifting through data and expecting more evidence from the Texas Rangers, according to the San Antonio Report.

In December, Bexar County Criminal District Attorney Joe Gonzales announced via press release that Brad had “concealed” a “reciprocating saw” two days after Suzanne’s disappearance, and authorities informed family members that Suzanne’s DNA had been identified on the saw.

Brad remains in Bexar County’s jail with bonds totaling $3 million and a federal hold by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for the weapons charge. His attorney could not be reached for comment.
