CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee County, 10 May 2020 , MEDIA,MAPS,TIMELINE *NO DISCUSSION*


Apr 29, 2024

Seven months after the remains of Suzanne Morphew were discovered in a shallow grave in a remote area of Saguache County, her autopsy has been completed. The manner of death is listed as "homicide by undetermined means in the setting of butorphanol, azaperone, and medetomidine intoxication," according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. The autopsy report said sedatives and tranquilizers were found in Suzanne's bones. Lawyers for Barry Morphew told 9NEWS that caffeine was also found in her body. Her biking clothes were found with her remains, according to Barry's attorney and the autopsy report. A bullet was also found, but it wasn't clear whether it was used, according to the attorneys of Barry Morphew. His attorneys also tell 9NEWS that none of Suzanne's bones in her feet were found in the shallow grave, nor were her shoes. They do not know why that might be. Morphew, 49, was last seen on Mother's Day 2020. She lived in Maysville in Chaffee County, west of Salida, with her husband Barry and their two daughters, Mallory and Macy. When she vanished, the Chaffee County Sheriff’s Office said she went for a bike ride but never returned home.

Barry Morphew released this statement through his attorneys after the autopsy results were released:

For the past four years the Morphews have agonized over Suzanne's disappearance. This included not only the pain of the loss of their wife and mother but also the false accusations and prosecution of Barry Morphew. The Morphews have prayed the authorities would remove their blinders and not only find Suzanne, but find the suspect responsible for her disappearance and murder. However, the Morphews are left with more questions than answers and a lack of justice for Suzanne, the family
and the community.

On May 10, 2020, around 5:00 a.m. Barry Morphew went to work, driving approximately 160 miles north of the Morphew home for a job that had been planned for months. In 2020, investigators confirmed that Suzanne was a regular morning coffee drinker and DNA testing done in 2020 confirmed that the half finished cup of coffee left on the kitchen counter on May 10, 2020 was covered in her DNA only. The autopsy now also confirms that on the day she disappeared, Suzanne had her morning cup of coffee as shown by the caffeine in the toxicology report. The autopsy also confirms that she put on her mountain bike clothes and was either getting ready for, or was already on her morning bike ride, when she was abducted, allegedly drugged, and buried 50 miles south of their home.

Despite the fact that unknown male DNA was found in Suzanne's car, where her bike was parked, on her bike grips, handlebars, and bike seat, the authorities will not tell the Morphew family whether Suzanne's bike clothes, collected seven months ago with her remains, have been tested for DNA. DNA left on her clothing by the murderer could bring justice for Suzanne, her family and the community. The authorities will also not provide the Morphew's
[sic] any information regarding whether they have performed any testing on the bullet that was collected with Suzanne's remains.

The authorities offered the victims, Barry, Mallory and Macy, the option to retrieve Suzanne's remains, but they want to ensure the suspect is apprehended before they take what could be an important piece of evidence in the suspect's prosecution. The
family is quite skeptical about the integrity of this investigation as the very same investigators that concealed the unknown male DNA continue to be involved in this investigation and were present at the autopsy of Suzanne Morphew.

The family asks for privacy and implores the authorities to look at the case with fresh eyes, follow all leads, conduct all forensic testing, and solve Suzanne's murder.
Suzanne Morphew's death declared a homicide nearly 4 years after she was reported missing in Colorado

“Barry had worked on the beach site Friday evening,” Gentile said. “Saturday, he had asked me to clean it up and rake it out, because we were going to bring it out to level – so it would be a beach sand and not muck.”

***And, although Gentile had agreed to work in that area for the day, she said Barry dismissed her from the job early – at 11 a.m. “He said that he had to go make the wife happy – do some hiking or biking,” she said. “And I found out, like, later that day that he was in town all day.”

Gentile said she heard Barry was out shopping by himself.

***Suzanne's husband (Barry) reportedly leaves the home at 0500 hrs for a reported work assignment in Denver, Colorado. He remarks that he doesn't wake Suzanne. Reports say he texts Suzanne a Mother's Day greeting that goes unanswered. Hours later, Barry's daughters contact him and report that their attempts to reach Suzanne go unanswered. Barry contacts neighbor and asks her to check on Suzanne. Neighbor reports that she walked through house and can't locate her. She sees Suzanne and daughter’s vehicle there. According to reports, Barry asks neighbor to return and see if Suzanne's bike is missing, noting she may be on a bike ride. Neighbor confirms the bike is missing and the neighbor calls the local sheriff to conduct a welfare check.

In an earlier interview, Suzanne’s family told FOX21 CBI agents asked Barry to take a polygraph test on two separate occasions, and, each time, he turned them down.

[…]

“I’ve never been asked to do a polygraph,” Barry said. “There is nothing that I am hiding. I have given three – 30 hours of testimony to the FBI and the CBI. I’ve answered every question. Every single question.”

[…]

Dan Corsentino, a private investigator in Pueblo, said it is possible those agencies did not ask Barry Morphew to take a polygraph. He also said it could be reasonable for an innocent person to deny the test.

0:00
me yes oh my gosh okay finally we're getting this worked okay so Sarah you
0:10
don't live in Colorado anymore right nope and have you seen the autopsy
0:17
results I have yes I looked up a whole bunch of different articles and things
0:23
today whenever I saw that they' come out okay so tell me what was your first
0:29
reaction when you saw that so initially I was just happy that
0:36
they had something because obviously for coming up on four years we've all been waiting for closure and just some sort
0:42
of answer as to what happened to her um obviously it was a big relief when they found her body but obviously there was
0:49
still that lingering you know how did she get there how did we come to this stage so that was nice just knowing we
0:55
had that part but then obviously finding out what caused it I don't know if I'm
1:02
talking to myself now but I'll keep talking to you people I'm I I just
1:07
changed it to just you talking for now okay that works um but obviously seeing
1:14
what the results were and what they found in Her Bones still that was huge
1:21
because obviously knowing the backstory and a lot of the things that we've already experienced with this case that
1:27
was very very eye openening for sure what about you yeah I mean
1:34
um the prosecution predicted that uh
1:39
some sort of tranquilizer material would be um in Suzanne's remains and the
1:47
autopsy result pretty much says that's what they found in her right femur and her right
1:54
fer head um there was also a lot of other items and clothing and pieces of
2:01
fabric that were found um in that shallow grave in Moffet and SWAT County
2:08
in Colorado um that I was kind of shocked about uh in regards to um if you haven't
2:16
read it fully I'll just read it the list of all the items that were also found um
2:22
a pale pattern a Bava a pink and light color leather work
2:28
glove a light color partial padded bra a ripped dark blue gray hooded sweatshirt
2:34
labeled crusted but a torn green Nike tank top a Yeti shorts and a um and
2:42
pieces of fabric that were fragments of frag frag uh a fabric sorry and both the
2:49
clothing as well as the pieces of fabric were all weathered and covered in dirt
2:55
and a lot of people were wondering you know once they did find Suzanne what would she be wearing would she be
3:01
wearing you know clothes that she went to bed in would she be wearing the bathing suit that the last known photo
3:07
of her uh she was wearing in um would she be wearing biking clothes that um
3:14
you know people had claimed that she went on a bike ride and never returned and you know um were you shocked at all
3:21
by the the items that were found yes and no only because I feel
3:28
like those with the grave being as shallow as
3:34
it was I feel like a lot of those things would have come to the surface at some point
3:41
or it was just odd that that much stuff was there I guess I just feel
3:47
like it's kind of hard to believe that that stuff was in that location for so long and hadn't moved or you know blown
3:54
away or gotten you know uprooted from animals digging or different things like that
4:00
yeah Whitney is um mentioning that you know they weren't able to locate her shoes or any bones from her feet um I
4:08
was speaking with an investigator and he was telling me that typically rodents um
4:15
things that scrap at uh human remains usually go for the hands and feet first
4:21
just because they have little to no um muscle and
4:28
um they're e easy to get at I guess is what U this investigator told me um and
4:33
it is a good question like was she wearing shoes where her bike shoes like
4:39
her bike shoes were never found right yep what about socks was she
4:44
wearing any socks that's a good question too to
4:50
raise um still there's been no arrest made um
4:58
right now it's just here's the autopsy results um and they're still
5:03
investigating right um they said that CBI chaffy County Sheriff's Office as
5:10
well as the Fe Federal Bureau of Investigation are working closely with
5:15
um the 12th Judicial District which is in uh SWAT
5:25
County tomorrow is Suzanne's birthday I would like to add
5:33
thank you Sunny for watching yeah I think one of the saddest
5:39
Parts too is obviously you know all of us in this community that have been following the case are happy that
5:46
there's some sort of closure now but more importantly like her family her siblings who have been searching for her
5:52
and wanting answers for years and now the daughters too I think that was
5:57
something that hit me as well as just knowing that that now they know for sure obviously when they found the body that
6:04
was a big thing but just having some sort of answer even if it's not 100%
6:10
having something to kind of lean on as a reason to why this all happened like I
6:16
hope that that brings the girls some closure um but I feel like that's just as hard because there isn't a 100%
6:24
answer to how she was killed but I just yeah I was thinking about them for sure
6:31
I think also like we've waited for so long to get
6:37
answers and a lot of what came out today brought even more questions right um and
6:45
also we have to think about that you know these remains REM remains had been
6:51
out in the desert for years you know this is we're coming up on the fourth um
6:58
year mark of her disappearance um and people need to
7:03
realize you know all these bones that they collected had no
7:12
um tissue on them yeah no soft
7:18
tissue none of the B the bones so you have to think about how long those had
7:24
been exposed to the sun and the elements and animals
7:30
um and according to like the investigators collecting the
7:37
bones and putting them in separate you know large paper bags and things like
7:43
that um they collected remains for at least
7:48
three days because they marked each paper bag day one day two day three
7:55
skull one you know skull you know day one skull um things like
8:02
that and
8:10
um people are wondering if there's going to be a different prosecution team um I
8:16
know um an Kelly is the 12th Judicial District da um she's been you know
8:23
keeping her um what she knows about the case very close to her and she hasn't
8:28
done any interviews about the remains being found or the results from the
8:35
autopsy um so I think they're you know collecting all the information all the
8:41
investigation that all these three different uh law now four law
8:46
enforcement officers have done because you have to think about saat County now on top of chaffy County and CBI and FBI
8:55
now um are all involved uh with this
9:06
Cas I'm reading some of your guys' comments we are all praying for justice
9:14
for Suzanne I would say for sure um I was kind of playing phone tag
9:20
with some of Suzanne's family members today and I'm hoping to connect with them um tomorrow about their reactions
9:28
to the news and um kind of what they're hoping for the future right they want
9:34
Justice for Suzanne um let's kind of go back Sarah
9:41
for folks that don't know the case as well as we do about kind of what
9:47
transpired so Suzanne morphe was reported missing I always like to say
9:52
reported missing on Mother's Day May 10th 2020 because a lot people have
10:00
thought that she disappeared uh prior to May 10th and that she was just reported
10:07
missing May 10th um and a neighbor called 911 um
10:13
reporting well they didn't even call 911 they actually called the chaffy county
10:18
um like non-emergency number um to report that she was missing on Mother's
10:24
Day um the neighbor also went over to the morphe house off a puma path
10:30
multiple times um leaving even a note to say hey if Suzanne if you come back like
10:36
give us a call immediately we're worried about you um what else
10:43
Sarah um her husband Barry morphew wasn't arrested um until a year after uh her
10:51
her disappearance and then you know we a week or so before this case was supposed
10:58
to go to trial and to a jury um it was dismissed by the
11:05
prosecution um so that they they wanted to find her body so that they could bring charges um in the future and now
11:13
in September of 2023 they found Suzanne's body and her
11:19
remains and seven months later now we're finding out that the autopsy is done and
11:27
that tranquilizer a sedative multiple um
11:32
sedatives were found in her uh femur in her bone
11:39
marrow and along the way before the case was dismissed Barry morphew himself
11:47
admitted that he had thrown away tranquilizer um darts that he had that
11:54
he claimed he said he used for squirrels as well as has um deer on his property
12:02
so that he could take and remove the antlers illegally that you cannot do
12:08
that in the state of Colorado he used to have a deer farm in Indiana and he also
12:15
use the tranquilizer darts for that as
12:25
well you can't see the um Sarah you can't see the comments can you no I can
12:33
okay so people are wondering again all you know everyone is
12:40
um innocent until proven guilty by a jury um by uh people of Colorado um so I
12:48
just want to put that out there um cranky Babushka is asking so he drugged
12:57
her um his attorneys have gone um today
13:03
and I will just read kind of what they said to Media
13:08
today they still believe their client Barry morphew is innocent um they say
13:14
that he did not kill his wife um they said that um she got up the
13:19
morning of Mother's Day and had her cup of coffee that's now confirmed with the autopsy report also confirmed with the
13:26
autopsy report is that she put on her bike clothes she was on a bike ride and was abducted the tranquilizer that was
13:32
found in Her Bones allegedly is a very common animal tranquilizer that could be
13:39
used on farms or by hunters which are people who are very prevalent in that area of Salida again this is Barry
13:45
morph's attorney stating this so they really believe that their client Barry
13:52
morphe is innocent that he did not kill his wife and that they still believe that someone abducted her and killed her
13:59
and that they're also claiming the animal tranquilizer is commonly used in
14:08
solida in the surrounding area um I've spoken to a lot of hunters in Colorado
14:15
and they say that's not something they use um my dad is a hunter himself and he him
14:24
and his Hunting Buddies they never have have tranquilizer material or have ever
14:29
used it I know that a lot of Park and Wildlife um officers use it for um you
14:38
know REM removing an animal from one area to another animal um but again you have to remember
14:46
the timing of this this is the peak of covid right Sarah no one was really
14:51
allowed or suggested to go out and like even go camping I remember the governor
14:57
of Colorado was like in dis like doesn't want people to go camping because he was
15:03
worried um about the spread of covid and this was really at the very beginning of
15:10
that whole covid 2020
15:15
right yeah it was right at the beginning of
15:23
it Barry morphew also admitted two investigators according to the arrest
15:29
affidavit that he threw away tranquilizer material that weekend do you remember
15:37
that Sarah in court hearing that
15:47
yep someone people are just catching on that we're now live so sorry for folks
15:53
that were were watching initially we had a lot of technical difficulties but we're back at it um it has been a while
16:01
Sarah like did you think that this case I know that like Iris Eton Barry's attorney was like this case well like
16:09
you know Barry morphe this case will never come to a courtroom again I mean she was very adamant that yeah this
16:16
wasn't you know they were never well she didn't say they never would find the body but they just were very confident
16:22
that this case wouldn't see a courtroom again yeah and and I do remember during
16:31
one of the daughter's interviews with Good Morning America she almost begged and looked into the camera and said like
16:39
please find my mom like I want answers and now they're getting more answers
16:45
right and I wonder it I know these last four years have been really difficult um
16:51
but I'm hoping you know the truth is going to come to light right um and
16:57
we're getting the truth now yeah it's just to think how far this
17:03
whole case has come over the last four years and all of the different twists and turns and yeah new information
17:11
that's come to light and now we're finally getting some answers hopefully
17:17
yeah soah are you gonna come to Colorado when this comes to courtroom oh
17:23
100% yeah I've got my my stair ready to go
17:29
and just so everyone knows Sarah's getting married this Summer which is really exciting I know we're talking
17:37
about something only three more months yay yeah I just wanted to let give everyone an update that Sarah is getting
17:44
married and um I'm so excited for that so it's been a long time coming I'm
17:50
ready for it um someone's bringing up a good point uh what did you think about a
17:55
bullet being found Sarah I I thought yeah I thought that was an
18:04
interesting piece for them to find I know obviously with them being hunters
18:09
and stuff they probably had obviously more than just tranquilizer darts and stuff in their home and
18:16
so I I just thought that was an interesting piece because I don't think that was ever
18:22
something that people thought about as a possible cause of death was that he or
18:28
somebody shot her with a gun just because you never heard about it you
18:34
know neighbors didn't hear a gun go off anything like that um so for them to
18:40
find that that was just kind of like a a puzzling piece for me to try and put
18:45
together but I think it's important to note that in the autopsy results it didn't say it was unspent or a spent
18:54
showcasing right um it did say it was a weathered bullet but you also
19:01
have to remember by Suzanne's side of the bed in the bedroom in the morphe
19:07
home was a unspent shell casing yep so I
19:12
wonder if the one that was found in the shallow grave connects to the one that
19:18
was found in the morphe home yep um someone is asking about a grand
19:25
jury um the state has a grand jury I know chaffy County has a grand jury
19:30
that's something that um you know the prosecution could do which mean that if
19:36
they do bring it to a grand jury that the grand jury could decide whether or
19:41
not to bring charges against someone and then if they do bring charges against
19:46
someone there doesn't have to be a preliminary hearing because of the grand jury so that
19:53
would speed up this Justice for Suzanne I would say yep
20:02
um someone's wondering if uh we think that if the dart was jabbed into her leg
20:08
in order for the meds to be in the bone so in um folks that do autopsies
20:16
they can get a lot of information from the bone
20:22
marrow of it doesn't have to be um like a toxicology report is just from
20:29
um it can be from bone marrow it can be from tissues and things like that so it doesn't H like we don't know the
20:36
investigators don't know where the dart was jabbed into this uh into suzan
20:42
morphe um the bone marrow is just because of the remains and how they were
20:49
and that there was just bones left that's how they could get the toxicology report was from the bone marrow they
20:56
didn't have her skin they didn't have blood BL they didn't have all these things that they typically would get
21:01
from a toxicology report but they had to get it from the bone marrow because that's all that remained in the shallow
21:08
grave in solat County um I'm reading comments if you
21:16
have questions this is the great a great time to ask um again Sarah and I we're
21:23
not in the news anymore um we don't work for a TV station so we can answer a lot
21:29
of questions that might be burning um that you've had for years and we haven't been able to answer because
21:35
we were tied to a TV station or something like that so please feel free
21:41
to um ask us questions oh Tammy Clips got engaged too
21:47
but she's saying congratulations I posted a lot of uh folks saying
21:52
congratulations to you Sarah while you were talking yes I see this one question
21:58
that's coming up a lot is the fact that obviously they were still able to find the tranquilizer chemicals and stuff
22:05
still in Her Bones and just kind of how that works like wouldn't she have to be alive for a certain amount of time for that to kind of sink in like how does
22:12
that work yeah this person Lobo is asking a great question I have seen as well as I
22:20
think a lot of viewers have seen um a gun that was found out there near
22:26
suzan's Shallow Grave that's a great question as far as um is
22:32
that connected to um the bullet that was um found in the shallow grave of course
22:38
that wasn't you know this these new documents that were released today only have to do with suzan's remains doesn't
22:45
have to do with um what else was found right like it doesn't um the gun might
22:52
have nothing to do with um this case and it has to do with another case we don't know I think we would learn more answers
22:59
if there were to be an arrest affidavit and maybe the gun is included in that
23:08
yeah um someone's asking if they can test her
23:14
port for opioids um that's a good question I I
23:21
don't know that answer do you Sarah she did have like caffeine in her
23:28
SST but I was talking to an investigator that said like caffeine stays in your
23:33
system for a while even if you ate you know had caffeine like 12 hours ago the
23:39
the night before you you know or um it stays in your system pretty long
23:50
um um
23:58
questions for you but I'll let you I don't see them decide which ones you want to answer can you pop them up Sarah
24:06
I don't think I can I don't know how um yes so let's talk about the darkart
24:13
casing it was actually like the sheath to it's like a plastic covering to the
24:19
dart in the washing machine inside the morphe home um not the washing ma
24:25
machine excuse me the dryer um and it was like bundled up with other sheets
24:30
and other um clothing that was being washed
24:36
um so for folks that are wondering if an abductor do you think an
24:43
abductor that would have taken Suzanne from her bike accident would they have really taken the time to go back to the
24:50
home and plant this um sheath the the
24:57
tranquilizer she and a lot of people are wondering
25:04
like did the tranquilizer um material is that what caused her death and right now
25:13
it's the homicide is by unspecified means but there was the
25:21
um bam you know setting into her system so
25:26
they don't I mean you can't exclude Ed I guess I should
25:34
say someone's wondering why the autopsy report verified that she had coffee well
25:41
it was there was also signs of caffeine in her um from the uh toxicology report
25:50
from her
25:57
femur um um trying to look at other
26:04
questions yeah I can't pop any up so just at the mercy of you Sarah should I
26:10
answer this question I mean you're not in news
26:19
anymore um I was scheduled to be at the search
26:25
had it on my calendar had packed and everything and I had brought it
26:32
to my Human Resources attention
26:38
that I had been threatened multiple times by different people involved in
26:45
the case and that I would like to have a photographer go with me to the
26:52
search so that I wouldn't be alone that I wouldn't be by by myself in an area with no
27:00
service no cell phone service at all because I knew I had already been
27:06
threatened multiple times I still wanted to report on the case um I wanted to meet
27:14
folks like yourselves that you know went out and searched for Suzanne over like
27:19
400 500 people came out to Salida to help search for Suzanne with Andy and um
27:26
I had reported the night before that I had been there I was planning to be there and then when HR got the word that
27:33
I was worried about my safety um they kind of was like let's
27:39
hold off and have you stay back and we have to do an internal
27:45
investigation and I couldn't say anything I couldn't talk to Sarah I
27:50
couldn't I couldn't say anything about what was going on with me um it's
27:57
unfortunate because I wanted to meet Andy still haven't met Andy we had talked prior and
28:04
afterwards um so yeah does that sum it up Sarah yep
28:12
pretty much and there were a lot of people that even because obviously Lauren had mentioned you know online and
28:19
other things that she had planned to be at the Surge and when she wasn't there a lot of people started calling the
28:25
station and asking I had gone out there with a different reporter and people were even coming up to me asking why
28:31
Lauren wasn't there and like she said she couldn't even tell me and so I just kind of had to make up some excuse
28:39
because I didn't really know why she had gotten pulled from the story at the time and so that was kind of hard because
28:44
obviously she's been following it since day one and you guys all relied on her and trusted her and we expecting her to
28:51
be there and support and you know to cover this and then to just be ripped from it and not be able to tell anybody
28:57
it definitely was kind of shocking and surprising for a lot of people to just not see her there and we don't ever want
29:04
anybody to think that it was because she didn't care and she forgot like none of
29:10
that she had every intention of being there and it was just an unfortunate situation that had to pull her from
29:17
that yeah and it was kind of
29:22
like I would say management just got like a slap on the wrist like you know
29:27
make sure your employees feel safe when they cover stories and I felt like my um
29:35
credibility was questioned people didn't trust what I did and said as a reporter and so that
29:42
was really hard and
29:47
um I'm glad I'm no longer there um here's another question what
29:54
did you say Sarah I was gonna say Sunny said that she called the station or he I sorry they said they called the
30:02
station yeah and that was the hardest thing is that um I was being accused
30:07
of putting on
30:13
um telling people to call the station and all this stuff and I never did
30:18
that so there was accusations made that were not true but this person is
30:25
wondering sher's wondering if um I'll ever release the interview that I did with Barry morphew um I don't want
30:34
to hurt this case at all um I want you
30:39
know the investigators and um the District
30:44
Attorney's Office the you know whoever it may be
30:49
that brings this case to a courtroom I want it to be closed case before ever
30:57
show sharing in any of that information who knows if some of my interviews would be used in the
31:03
courtroom I I mean probably um but as far as releasing the
31:09
full interview yeah I hope one day I hope you under you know I I want
31:15
to release it for sure y so maybe one
31:22
day um what are the things
31:31
people are wondering um about like how did they come how did
31:38
they stumble upon her remains so they were looking for Edna Cantina another missing woman from that area um and so
31:47
they were searching for her in Swatch County um in
31:52
mfet and they found human remains they were not a Cantinas obviously but they
31:59
were Suzanne morphew they had to collect all that evidence um they had to identify her
32:07
through uh dental records um Suzanne and also they found a port from her Cancer
32:13
Treatments um and then they started you know I've been told from family members
32:19
as well is that you know they sent off her uh remains to you
32:26
know m multiple multiple um I mean this autopsy was signed off by multiple
32:33
people Leon Kelly you've interviewed Leon Kelly Dr Leon Kelly from El Paso
32:38
County Corner y um Allison Cooper Dr Dr
32:44
Megan kleisner Dr Jared oh I don't do I
32:49
don't think that's a doctor ND is a doctor I think that might be the denst Emily Russell Kinsley is the
32:57
doctor too anyways I've I've heard it was um
33:03
The Remains were sent off to quanico as
33:08
well do you see another question you can just say the questions as you see them Annie is saying that uh we need to write
33:15
a book someday this case something that I haven't mentioned
33:23
is through this case I've you know gotten to know Suzanne's family I've gotten to know Suzanne's
33:29
friends um I've gotten to know the town of Salida and the people that have
33:35
continued to keep her name out there and Sarah you have too and how big of an
33:40
impact you know getting to know these people
33:46
um it's it's been huge right
33:51
y um
33:59
people are asking about you know any advice for women or anyone that's
34:04
experiencing verbal domestic abuse I think something that I've
34:10
learned through this case is tell people um tell a lot of people and
34:19
slowly leave to have a plan don't just abruptly
34:25
try to get out right and that's the one thing to keep in mind
34:31
too is that you're not alone in this there are a lot of women that go through
34:37
this as well and have been through it are still going through it um so you should never feel you know uncomfortable
34:46
or scared to tell somebody because there are so many women out there who can empathize with what
34:52
you're going through and can offer advice and tips and ways for you to get
34:58
out of that situation safely and into a life that you
35:05
deserve yeah and you know we're not therapists so please like you know seek
35:13
professional help um another question is who
35:19
threatens why um I'll just leave it as someone told me I'll come after you when
35:25
we find my wife
35:38
people are asking if you know the daughters are still on Barry's side as far as I know they're still
35:46
standing by his his side and supporting him
36:03
someone someone is saying I called the
36:10
station thank you Mall sorry if I mispronounce that but Mall Kane thank
36:16
you for your sweet words I didn't see it I'll have to look through these someone's everever
36:22
wondering if I found the source of the threats and did I follow up with law enforcement yes I followed up with law
36:27
enforcement do you remember one of the last days of the preliminary hearing um Sarah where I had to be
36:35
escorted into the courtroom by deputies yep yeah that was
36:44
interesting it was nice to like actually get a call from Sheriff
36:50
speezy understanding um the seriousness of what was being
36:58
said to me and taking them seriously and you know helping me do the job that I
37:03
was hired to do right um I'm just there trying to report on what's being said in
37:09
the courtroom and it was um scary right
37:21
y oh someone that is so sweet I just now saw the the comment how do I I put this
37:29
on from a retired HR I don't know how to put it on um I think it's the one that
37:35
you you know highlighted Sarah from a retired HR Director I'm truly sorry your
37:40
former employer made your uh catapult over a mouse tur necessarily and without
37:48
indepth consideration ver swell on you go
37:53
girl first while on okay well that's really
37:59
sweet yeah I sometimes tell stories about previous experiences to my current
38:05
employees and they're just shocked with what I tell them yep
38:15
um um I think a lot of people are in awe and shock still from the autopsy results
38:23
it's like how did the prosecution years ago predict that whenever they would
38:31
find Suzanne's body that it would have this tranquilizer sedative material in
38:37
Her Bones in her toxicology report right yeah and I think a few of you had
38:43
mentioned this too um but you were remembering correctly that one of the
38:49
things that was discussed um in the preliminary hearing is the fact that his phone was pinging all over the house the
38:57
day of and so there were a lot of there was a lot of speculation that he was chasing her around the house I know a
39:03
few people had mentioned that and they weren't sure if they were remembering correctly but yes that was something
39:08
that had come up that day as well remember this too
39:14
Sarah oh yeah gotta love her
39:21
yeah um I remember when Barry's sister said what she said
39:27
in the courtroom and I'm just like listen I've just been doing my job
39:34
I don't know I'm just reporting and I asked you know your your brother for interviews and he did
39:42
and you always tried to get his side and give him the opportunity to tell
39:48
remember how many times we went to Salida and uh and try to get him to do interviews
39:56
with us and talk with us and
40:11
yep everyone's like she was just trying to silence you yep 100% they're trying to protect
40:19
their client someone says Long Live
40:24
[Laughter] Lauren I'll never forget one Tweet
40:29
someone tweeted me and was like Lauren for president and I just died in the courtroom because I was just like it was
40:36
just like such a high emotion you know and then someone to say like that was
40:41
really nice yeah um for folks that are just now
40:48
joining us I know I think we have like about 600 viewers right now if you
40:54
haven't seen the update is the autopsy report of Suzanne morphew has been
40:59
completed and it pretty much says it was ruled a homicide by unspecified means so
41:05
we don't really know exactly you know what killed her but we
41:10
know that um Foul Play was involved and that uh there was some sort of sedative
41:17
such as bam which is a tranquilizer material for
41:24
animals um I'm used to hearing about that when it comes to like Wildlife
41:32
officers relocating an animal um Barry morw admitted he had
41:38
some there was some at the house at the time of this incident he admitted Barry
41:45
morphe admitted that he threw away some of it the weekend of Mother's Day weekend he also admitted to law
41:53
enforcement officers that he shot deer with the tranquilizer material to then
42:01
take their antlers which is illegal in
42:10
Colorado oh did you see the question from Maui girl she said what interview
42:16
that you've done for Suzanne's case was the most interesting who that's a good question
42:27
I mean I have so many interviews that haven't been released yet
42:32
um a lot of interviews that you know I hope one day to share right
42:41
um I think the most interesting was Jeff Pucket because he that's what I was
42:49
thinking was just so forthcoming and just so like off the cusp like didn't
42:55
care like what reaction he would get he I mean he was working at the time we
43:01
were interviewing him in the shop and we asked him like Point Blank like tell us
43:09
go back to the Mother's Day weekend tell us like what was your like what did you smell in the in the hotel room and he
43:16
was like immediately my eyes were burning from the smell of chlorine in the hotel
43:22
room that you know Barry morphew um stayed in and I asked him you know what
43:28
do you think what happened you know and he said something like if he didn't do it then aliens did
43:35
it or something so bizarre but it was just um and rest in peace Jeff Pucket um
43:42
he's no longer with us but um he was so you could tell that he was just he felt
43:49
like he was trapped in a situation that he didn't want anything to do with and he just was trying to tell us what
43:56
happened that that weekend and he was upset remember how upset he was about how he went all the way to Broomfield
44:03
and there was not a job for them to do the material wasn't there the bricks weren't there he was like I wasted my
44:10
weekend and he was just upset um so that was an interesting what what
44:17
about you what other what other interviews do you think was interesting
44:24
um I mean that was definitely the one that came to my
44:30
mind um I never
44:35
did I don't think at least a formal interview with
44:40
Andy um as I was at the memorial but I think that one just kind of sticks
44:46
with me because of obviously his relationship with Suzanne being her brother and just
44:54
hearing like you could just feel all the emotions that he was feeling and being
44:59
like you know scared and nervous and sad and you could just feel all that when he was talking about her and even though
45:06
though it was a very brief interview it was just very impactful talking to one
45:11
of her relatives in that moment and like you know the emotions that were coming
45:16
from searching all day for her and everything and then seeing the turnout of everyone that came that night to support her um that one was definitely
45:24
just really impactful for me I think one of the most impactful
45:30
interviews I did which was um either the
45:35
interview with Melinda Mormon uh Bowser I guess I should say now her married
45:41
name um but she I I talked to her right after
45:46
the news of uh the initial report that Barry morphew had been arrested back in
45:52
um May of 2021 and then I also spoke with her and met
45:57
her um after the remains were found this past September
46:04
and she constantly says there's like no winners in this story
46:09
right a family has lost their mother their wife their um my sister right
46:16
she's like constantly saying how you
46:23
know she constantly wants um
46:28
Justice for her da or for her sister um yeah and that I'll never forget the
46:34
quote which I'm trying to find about roses she was like the Roses among
46:42
Thorns I guess is how Melinda described Suzanne and I just thought that was so
46:48
Beau beautiful right
46:53
um yeah
46:59
um any other questions that we can answer I keep bouncing around
47:06
um somebody said maybe they will arrest him around the anniversary like last
47:12
time I do know of a couple things that are going on in Indiana one of which is
47:18
a celebration of life for Suzanne that's been put on by her daughters and um
47:25
Barry and I understand it is um an invite only private celebration of life
47:33
um a lot of Suzanne's family members I had to let them know that I found out
47:39
about it and they didn't even know um and some of Suzanne's friends as well
47:45
from high school um also this weekend um
47:50
I believe the town of Alexandria is putting on um a celebration for her and
47:56
um a lot of the um some of the proceeds will be
48:01
going to the Historic Museum in um Alexandria and actually fun fact about
48:08
that the building that that uh museum is at is um the same building that I believe her
48:16
stepfather worked at so that's kind of bizarre
48:22
coincidence um people are asking like what is the talk
48:29
around town for Colorado I know that people are just glad to see this um kind
48:36
of coming to an end that you know they're getting more answers that you
48:42
know her remains have been found um and hoping that you know one day there'll be
48:48
Justice for Suzanne but I don't know I haven't heard
48:54
about what people are saying in Indiana but maybe um after this week I'll I'll
49:00
learn
49:06
more someone's
49:13
asking are you seeing the comments about people claiming her remains nobody is claiming her remains
49:21
or who so um Barry is the the next of Ken so he
49:28
can him and his daughters could come pick up the remains and from the corner he told me that if they don't pick them
49:36
pick up the remains then um it goes to the brother and sisters of
49:42
Suzanne Tommy's clip said I heard Suzanne's body is still at the morg that the lawyers told him not to claim her
49:48
because they don't know if he's a suspect what does that have to do about picking up your wife's
49:55
remains like they're not going to let Barry take them if he's a
50:01
suspect but that's just what someone's
50:06
heard oh so Teresa is saying has attorneys advised him not
50:11
to wouldn't you want the remains for the celebration of life
50:17
yeah you would
50:22
think um someone's wondering about this
50:31
we don't know what the girls are
50:47
thinking someone's asking if I'm G to go to the family's Memorial do you think I would be welcome
50:54
Sarah um considering it's an invite only I
50:59
don't think you're at the top of Barry's guest list so I'm gonna say you probably
51:07
wouldn't be allowed in I've even heard that like some of her closest friends weren't even invited
51:14
which is sad
51:23
yeah let's answer a few more questions and then
51:36
off yeah so um Colleen is asking if we remember any specifics about the
51:42
tranquilizers being brought up in court like the name of the drugs
51:49
um I sort of remember the BAM like them
51:54
using the word bam which is the acronym for what was setting
52:01
in um from her toxicology report do you remember anything more
52:07
Sarah not really just that that was a really big thing that they found the
52:12
sheath in the dryer um and they were trying to piece together how that would have just ended
52:18
up in there with the rest of their clothes and I kind of remember the prosecution saying that um they were
52:26
trying try to point out that Barry's shorts like khaki shorts and their
52:31
conclusion was that you know they're trying to theorize and say that Barry had put the sheath in his pocket that
52:40
then fell out in the dryer you know when it was doing it spin cycle right um and
52:45
that's how the the sheath got in there um and then you know tying it to
52:53
the unused um tranquilizer material in the garage and then asking him about it
53:00
in interviews and Barry responding saying he remembers throwing some away that weekend
53:16
right
53:22
um yeah just a reminder that's you know that's kind of what the prosecution had
53:30
theorized from you know years ago in 200 and 21 um that that's kind
53:39
of what they think happened
53:44
right somebody commented the full technical name of it um the journey to
53:52
Justice if you're if anybody's wondering what bam stands for
53:57
I can try to pronounce it you want me to I was like trying earlier she's like
54:04
don't do it butorphanol is the
54:10
B as as a PR is the
54:16
A and the m stands for I'm saying he's wrong probably metat
54:23
miden metat toid
54:29
brenel tanol aspiron medo
54:35
miden is what bam stands for that's what it looks like so
54:41
yep I'm sure everyone's commenting like no that's not how you say it great job
54:48
trying oh someone says A+ oh nice everyone's laughing too but
54:55
that's okay [Music] um people are just saying we needed this
55:01
live hey it's good to see you guys I know it's been what a really long time
55:07
since yeah seven months right since Suzanne remains had been found yeah I
55:12
was going to say that and I've been out there and it is so so vast and just like vast and just deserty and there's small
55:20
little brush and we found some wild flowers and we um put them them on uh
55:28
when I say uh we put them on the where we believe was the site where the
55:34
remains were found Market but I believe that Tisha leeway in Salida who has been
55:42
constantly keeping her name Suzanne morphy's name out there and awareness she was Suzanne's hair stylist
55:49
um she is having another um memorial for Suzanne which will be May 11th
55:56
in um Poncha Springs which is the town right outside of cida and
56:06
um they're I I believe are going to go to where the remains uh were found in
56:12
Moffet and Swatch County and either spread wild flowers or something to Mark
56:19
uh where suzan's remains are found everyone's telling us we need to
56:25
go get McFlurries now well once I'm done with a 75 hard has
56:32
anyone done 75 hard no does anyone know what that is that's G to be a hard
56:38
pass well I'm on like day 68 so
56:44
hopefully I'll be done
56:51
soon what are some other um evidence that we still are scratching
56:58
our heads about I'm thinking of the fireplace and the like burnt piece of
57:04
pieces of was it a journal or something or yeah yeah it was like a journal and a
57:09
Bible that would be good to figure out what that came from also the like broken
57:17
door frame of the morphew like bedroom remember that
57:31
everyone's one I'm everyone's hoping that this is oh that's not what I
57:37
wanted um this is another chance for Suzanne to finally get the Justice she deserves
57:44
which I totally agree oh someone's asking about the
57:49
metal piece in the fireplace I don't remember that do you
57:55
remember a metal piece found in the I thought that might have been like The Binding of maybe a journal or something
58:02
oh yeah but this person is wondering if it was the seat wire
58:08
Lobo so where is it um Illuminating ink
58:13
said the Bobcat that is definitely one for me that has kind of stuck with me
58:19
because if I remember correctly whenever they had like the dogs out there sniffing and everything
58:25
they were really attracted to the bobcat and nothing ever came of that and
58:31
I feel like that just kind of got dismissed or overlooked and maybe they looked into it and there was nothing there but I feel like that was such a
58:38
big thing like even the first place they checked was a property he had been working on because they figured he's got
58:43
access to it he's got the machines like they could he could have buried her in the concrete of this house but I feel
58:49
like that was never really looked into as much as it probably could have been or we just don't know at least
58:57
what about the sheets from the daughter's room that were never found or like the the bikini that Suzanne was
59:03
wearing or the towel the brown towel that was in the last photo of Suzanne I'm wondering what happened to those
59:10
items what about her earbuds that she always wore during her bike rides you
59:16
know um or her cell phone we still don't know where her cell phone went I thought
59:24
maybe it would be in the shallow grave but that was not an item that was found
59:30
and just for folks that are you know just coming on the items that were found
59:38
were a pale pattern b clava a pink and light color leather work glove a light
59:44
color partial padded bra a ripped dark blue gray hooded sweatshirt labeled
59:50
crusted be a torn green Nike tank top Yeti shorts and a Fab fac fragments and
59:57
there were five of those I wonder maybe what if the the fat like what what is the fabric
1:00:04
fragments are is that from the sheets maybe yeah I was wondering that
1:00:11
too someone's um mentioning the bare footprint in the Bobcat remember that
1:00:17
yep why there was never a photo taken of that I will never
1:00:24
know her shoes were found yeah Tammy you're right her shoes were
1:00:31
not found you would think you know a bicyclist would have you know rubber or
1:00:38
you know professional bike shoes they would you
1:00:47
know someone's wondering about her wedding ring that's a good point
1:00:53
yep all right Sarah any Last Words nope I
1:01:01
just I'm anxious to see how this ends and what happens next with all of this
1:01:08
new information these new findings yeah we'll have to get you back out here
1:01:15
in Colorado I mean hey if this regardless
1:01:20
of what happens when this goes to trial I will be there
1:01:27
well thank you guys all so much for tuning in and hopefully the next time we are on
1:01:33
uh uh YouTube live maybe there'll be more Justice for Suzanne right Sarah yep
1:01:42
we're praying and hoping yeah all right guys keep Suzanne's name out there remember that
1:01:49
you know we're coming up on her 4year anniversary of her disappearance uh try to keep you know
1:01:56
her family your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time I know her birthday is supposed to be tomorrow she
1:02:04
would have been 53 I believe which is um crazy that it's already been four almost
1:02:09
four years since she disappeared so um hopefully we'll have
1:02:16
