Surreal also comes to mind when adding this interview to the totality of this case--starting with the how, when and why Suzanne went missing while spending Mother's Day alone...the evidence couldn't have existed without the stage setup but the pieces to the puzzle still aren't clear to me.Like others, "cringe" was the first word that came to my mind today as I watched the "interview". Robotic, fake, staged, cringe, sad. Pretty much in that order.
And FWIW, the new forum look is kinda cool.
Spousification of a child, also termed parentification, refers to a dynamic in which parents turn to children for emotional support while ignoring the child's developmental needs.
I agree, it also made me angry! But in the interest of preserving my membership here, I'll refrain from saying more.
yes, the possible reversal of child and adult roles in their family might be key to how things are today...
IMO, BM is an equal opportunity exploiter in the service of enriching himself.
And uses the Bible to justify his behavior to himself and others...
Has this family dynamic always existed, or does this happen when the children reach a certain age? Is the babying behavior something learned or a survival tool? Truly curious.
Interesting that the dismissal of the murder charges against BM seem to be tied to finding Suzanne's body now--what are they expecting to find on, in, or with her body that will tie together some or all of the other evidence?
The reporter made it look that way, but I don’t believe the DA needs the body to make the case or any new evidence. However, IANAL
. I think the prosecutor’s office needs to get organized and have their experts testify. Judge L destroyed their ability to make the case by sanctioning them to the degree he did. Judge L, imho, could have done better. His parroting the defence’s spin on the dog that searched the first night showed he wasn’t paying close attention to what the handler actually said.

CNN) — The Colorado man whose trial over the disappearance and death of his wife was dismissed has spoken out in his first public interview since the charges were dropped.

“We’ve been silent for a long time and we’ve decided that we finally want to break the silence,” said Morphew’s daughter, Mallory Morphew, who joined her father for the interview along with her sister. “It’s been an emotional roller coaster, but we feel like we can finally take our first steps in healing, which is a blessing.”
“We just know our dad better than anyone else and we know he was not involved in our mom’s disappearance,” she added.
Morphew’s other daughter, Macy Morphew, called for District Attorney Linda Stanley to do more to find their mother.
“I just hope that Linda [Stanley] will step up to the plate and do everything she can to find our mom, because what they’ve done it’s not fair and we’re never going to stop looking for our mom,” she told Good Morning America.
