I don't think Barry is the brightest guy in the world, but I think there's more to his mistake about his army ranger friend than just a simple mental error. As people have mentioned, there's no chance his friend was deployed "400 times". That doesn't even make sense. As someone suggested, he's...
Right, but he's not furious, which makes it all the more suspect. He's just relaying that info like all of the other info, i.e., it might have been a cat, it might have been an abduction, here's where they found her bike, LE messed up the crime scene. It's all one recitation, and it's all...
This is a good thought. It would help to explain where they got the money to buy a $1.5 million home. There's no way they did that on Barry's earnings. Now, it may be that he inherited some money, but if she did, and if without her he would be leading a much less luxurious life, that could be...
I agree that his trashing of law enforcement is suspect. It doesn't ring true, and if he's responsible for her disappearance, he has two reasons for promulgating this narrative about LE messing up the crime scene. First, it allows him to offer up a "bad guy" in his stead to the public. Barry...
It's interesting that a number of people here see a "believable," "earnest," even "charming" Barry Morphew here. I can't say that I see the same. I see a man trying out a number of stories, some of which do not make a lot of sense. Also, it's worth noting that the man speaking to Barry here ---...
To point out the obvious, the fact that law enforcement is/was digging at a worksite where Barry laid dirt tells you they think this is a homicide and that it's Barry. Why they think this, and what exactly they've found, would be interesting to know, but as of now, we can't say. Did they find...
Last point for today: if Barry did in fact say, "it's too soon," when asked about why he hadn't yet made a statement to the public, this might also be ... problematic. "Too soon" is what we say in the moments or days after some horrible event, like a person's death. But in the days after...
Definitely possible, Curious Bystander. Of course, said person would need to leave their alibi location hotel without being seen leaving, would have to avoid being seen on the road, etc. But it's definitely possible.
OK, so a couple of thoughts on Barry's video plea (partial transcription below, link to video below): the first point I would make is that his choice of audience for the plea is ... interesting. It may even be unusual. I am not law enforcement or a statement analysis expert, so I can't say. What...
Sorry, but I completely disagree. This was the sheriff's office's own press release. Law enforcement choose their words very carefully and for important, definite reasons.
I am going to try to say something about Barry's video plea, but I want to begin simply by posting a partial transcription of it here, as well as a link to the video. I think his video plea is both interesting and important.

Oh Suzanne,
if anyone is out there who can hear this...
The sheriff's office press release says this about the alleged bike ride: "[the reporting party] advised that their neighbor, Suzanne Morphew, age 49, from the Maysville area had reportedly gone for a bike ride in the area and failed to return home". That suggests to me that the neighbor did not...
This may be an obvious point, but a great deal hinges on whether she did in fact go for a bike ride that day. If she did, then it is obviously far more likely that this is either a stranger crime or an accident of some kind. If she did not go for a ride that day, then it is almost certainly the...
You make a good point. I guess my point is that we certainly aren't looking at a traditional case of kidnapping / ransom here, as no such demands have been made. But that may not be what he was suggesting when he said "no questions asked; however much they want." He may have simply been saying...
I don't know; I find the idea that this might be a kidnapping a bit ludicrous. Wouldn't kidnappers contact the husband/family relatively shortly after taking her? Wouldn't there be a ransom note or a ransom phone call of some kind? Given there has never been any of this, what reason does anyone...
Interesting case, good discussion. In my opinion, there are four principal possibilities:
the husband
an accident of some kind, i.e., she slipped and fell into a ravine or the river or something
a stalker
a stranger
When I consider each of these possibilities individually, certain ones strike...
I have always been suspicious of KR for a variety of reasons, but reports clearly and consistently state that semen was found on Faith and that matching male DNA was found at the scene --- namely, on the bottle, on the pen, and on the note. To try to muddy the waters on this point is not...
Except this "logic" makes no sense. She left the door unlocked all night with her roommate sleeping within so that her roommate would be able to lock it the next morning at some point? Why was it so important to lock it in the daytime but so unimportant to lock it overnight? If you say this was...
Another thing: the Youtuber Gray Hughes pointed out that they wouldn't have sent out all of those officers and cars if the red t-shirt found by the person mowing their field didn't fit the description of Mollie's camp t-shirt. That is, the red t-shirt was almost certainly Molly's --- and that's...
If she was wearing the red t-shirt, that suggests that she was taken Thursday morning, not Wednesday evening (after her run). We know she was on her computer late Wednesday night, so she would have already showered and changed at that point. There's some chance she slept in the red t-shirt, but...
