KATHY LYNN TARRANT MARTIN - 22 yo - (mental age 12) Salt Lake City UT

Cousin of Josh Powell Missing


March 27, 2012 12:40 AM EDT


A relative of Josh Powell has been reported missing out of
Salt Lake City, Utah. 22-year-old Kathy Lynn Tarrant Martin reportedly
suffers from Cerebral Palsy and has the mental capacity of a 12-year-old
child. An Amber Alert wasn't issued for the missing woman as she is of
age and has been left to her own devices, apparently.
The sister of Josh Powell, Jennifer Graves,
said that she is afraid her cousin might be in danger. The young woman
may be in the company of 20-year-old Skyler Perkins, who attends the
same special needs school as her. It's reported that the man is homeless
and is on probation, though it's not known for what.

It seems
that while the family of Josh Powell are healing emotionally after he
took his own sons' lives before his own on Super Bowl Sunday, they are
now dealing with the fear of a missing woman. Certainly they now share
the panic and fear the family of missing woman Susan Cox Powell felt and
still feel today. Hopefully the cousin of the man possibly responsible
for Susan Powell's disappearance is safe and is only out having a good
time with her friend.

SALT LAKE CITY — An adult cousin of Jennifer Graves, the outspoken
sister of Josh Powell, was found late Monday night in a Salt Lake City

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Graves wrote in an
email around 10:30 Monday night. "Kathy Martin was found in a homeless
shelter in the SLC area and is O.K.!"

Kathy Lynn Tarrant Martin, 22, had been last seen in the area of 600 South and State Street at Volunteers of America Monday.
