This undated evidence photo released Monday, May 20, 2013, by the West Valley City Police Department shows the family minivan Josh Powell says he used to take his sons on a camping trip the night Susan Powell disappeared. Citing a lack of leads, a police agency said Monday that it is closing the active investigation of the disappearance of Susan Powell, a Utah mother whose now-dead husband was a prime suspect. West Valley City police called the news conference to offer new details in the case that's been largely kept under wraps since Powell vanished in 2009. The announcement came after police spent two days searching in rural Oregon last week for any trace of Powell's body.  (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)
