Mystery of Missing Texas Mom: A Husband's Urgent Messages

In a twist of events, the husband of missing Texas mom, Suzanne Simpson, sent a frantic message to his business partner just a day before reporting her missing. Brad Simpson, 53, urged James Cotter, 65, to rush to his home to help him hide a rifle. The text messages, revealed in an arrest affidavit, show Simpson's desperation. He even apologized for his urgency, saying social media was making things difficult for him. Cotter agreed to help and allegedly hid the AK-47 inside a wall of his own home. Suzanne, 51, was last seen on October 6, the day she and Brad had a heated argument.She called her mom, telling her she was hurt by Brad. Neighbors reported hearing screams near their San Antonio home. Brad reported Suzanne missing on October 9 and was arrested the same day for assault and unlawful restraint. The rifle, found missing from Simpson's gun vault, was recovered from Cotter's home. Both men face charges, with Simpson also facing federal gun charges. Despite searches, Suzanne's whereabouts remain unknown.
