The husband of missing San Antonio relator Suzanne Simpson has been officially charged with her murder, over a month after she disappeared. 

Suzanne Clark Simpson, 51, was last seen on October 6 in Olmos Park, a suburb of the Texas city, after reportedly fighting with Brad Simpson, her husband of 22 years. 

On Thursday afternoon, Simpson, 53, was formally charged after he was taken from Bexar County Jail by officers and questioned. He was later returned to the jail. 

According to News4 San Antonio, his arrest affidavit is to remain sealed for the next 30 days. 

Simpson was arrested three days after his wife disappeared and originally charged with unlawful restraint and assault causing bodily injury.

On Thursday afternoon, Simpson, 53, was formally charged after he was taken from Bexar County Jail by officers and questioned 

He was also later charged with possession of a prohibited weapon and ultimately charged with tampering/fabricating physical evidence. 

Suzanne was last seen outside of their ritzy $1.5 million home, before the couple walked towards a nearby bushland, where a neighbor heard screams. 

She hasn’t been seen since, with officers in the area searching extensively for her remains. 

It has since emerged that Simpson had sent frantic text messages to his friend and business partner James Valle Cotter, telling him: ‘I don’t have much time’. 

Cotter has been charged with one count of tampering with evidence after police discovered an AK-47 inside the wall of his home. 

Police allege Cotter helped Simpson hide a weapon that could be tied to his wife’s disappearance.

According to an arrest affidavit, Simpson text Cotter the day after formally reporting Suzanne missing, writing: ‘If you’re in Bandera, can you haul ass to meet me at your house?’

‘I don’t have much time,’ the initial text read, according to KENS5.

A secondary text allegedly read: ‘Sorry for the urgency but you’re all I got especially now… social media is destroying me.’

A haunting photograph of Suzanne earlier that day shows her walking through The Argyle after attending a party 

Authorities in Texas say his wife, who worked for Nix Realty Company, disappeared after attending a party at The Argyle in the Alamo Heights neighborhood. 

A haunting photograph of Suzanne earlier that day shows her walking through the complex, wearing a knee-length dark dress and her hair down over her shoulders.

Several hours after this photograph was taken, neighbors claim they heard an aggressive fight between Suzanne and her husband.

That neighbor claims he saw Simpson hitting and restraining his wife, before they both wandered off to a nearby wooded area.

Shortly after that interaction, the neighbor alleges he heard screams from the woods before Simpson was allegedly seen driving away in his truck.

In the affidavit for his arrest warrant, it was revealed that he called his brother, Barton, after Suzanne vanished and ‘apologized for all the problems he had caused.’

The affidavit also revealed the couple’s youngest child told staff at school ‘that her mom and dad were ‘fighting’.

She told staff that ‘her dad had hit her mom in the face and possibly pushed her into a wall’.

Police had searched a landfill site in San Antonio last month where they say ‘there is a good chance’ of finding her 

The youngster added that ‘her mom had a bruise on her elbow and that her dad had taken her mom’s cell phone away’.

Her daughter, 20-year-old Chandler Simpson, has since spoken out on social media, claiming that her mother was abused by her father.

The younger Simpson claimed that he ‘took my mother’s life in a state of rage and control’. 

In her post, Chandler said: ‘In our community, this should not be happening, and I will not stop speaking as the voice of my mother until she is found.

‘As my mother’s daughter I will tell our story over and over again. With every breath, I will make sure you remember her name. 

‘Suzanne Simpson was a victim of abuse and a victim of this community. Beyond being a victim, she was a phenomenal mother, hardworking, driven, loving and kind.’
