Found Deceased CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee Co, 10 May 2020 *Case dismissed w/o prejudice* *found in 2023* #114

[Kemug]

My thanks to all of you keeping up with this case. I can at least read some of the posts you all have written. I currently have a bad case of Covid. Not fun. Just recovered from breaking my right hand in a fall. Three months before, I fell and fractured my spine. Three months before that, I had a total knee replacement. If you are are fit enough to get in shape and strengthen your bones i would advise it. Thee surgeries in six months time is awful. Then to be followed by Covid. Ugh.
I now know why it is said getting old isn’t for sissies.
So I wonder when the judge will rule. I’m waiting. And I would sure appreciate a notice if it all blows up. We have all been watching and waiting. Far too long now.

Lots of hugs heading your way!

Morphew case is ongoing, new prosecutor states

Lawyers for 19 law enforcement officers who worked on the arrest and failed prosecution of Barry Morphew made their various cases for dismissal of a lawsuit the widower filed against them in federal court Wednesday.

Fave comment by Judge Domenico

Judge Domenico argued that omission of the DNA result “doesn’t make it unconstitutional. Lots of things get left out.”

Moo

My very favourite comment in this case was Agent Grusing to Barry Morphew: "You won't be wrongly arrested".

My very favourite comment in this case was Agent Grusing to Barry Morphew: "You won't be wrongly arrested".

It's better than that -- he said Barry won't be wrongly convicted.

And that was before the discovery of BAM on her bone marrow.

BAM.

I doubt it. She’s made a lot of money, and she was successful in forcing the dismissal of the first case.

Even if she winds up losing she’ll still have the name recognition.

I tend to agree. If anything it cements her as a fighter. Probably a desirable defense trait in an attorney for some clients.

Of note:

"Domenico did not rule immediately on law enforcement’s motion to dismiss Morphew’s lawsuit. He said that it will be several weeks before he decides."

Thanks - I will add that to my notes!

I'm finding it hard to locate the definition of qualified immunity in Colorado.The link below seems to speak only to police officers and does limit their qualified immunity...other searching seems to imply that the max amount that they can be liable for is $25,000. So it will be interesting how the judge rules and for which or all defendants in the civil suit. https://leg.colorado.gov/sites/default/files/law_enforcement_liability_0.pdf

Especially clients who murdered their wives

I thought they didn't find any in the home. If not, they don't have anything to sample from.

I recall differently. I believe it was the packaging at best-- sufficient for the lot number and identifying the Vet -- and how we learned it would have been expired serum.

I don't believe they found any vial(s) of serum but BM also told investigators he could have thrown this away in Broomfield following his clean sweep of the work bench. Also, we have BM's word he last used BAM early spring when he shot game from the breezeway.

Personally, I've long believed BM was concerned they found BAM in the Broomfield area trash run and why he did not deny he used it and when. MOO

The liberty taken by the plaintiff in their complaint was astounding to me!

Seeking to apply the rules of Discovery to the AA was as ridiculous of alleging the page length of the AA was unprofessional conduct! There are no rules in the Colorado limiting the page count of an AA but there are rules here where the defendants in this civil suit had to seek permission from the court to exceed the pages (word count) when responding to Barry's 180 + pg civil complaint. MOO

I remember having seen big antlers of one elk (?) leaning against the house wall, when the case started. What if BAM would have been found in that object, if it had been known, BAM would ever play a role in the case of a "missing woman"? Now it is too late for many things, I think. A shame.

 

[GOBliaison]

The issue is the tranquilizer deer story was a complete fabrication. Deer don’t have antlers that time of year, and investigators found no sawed antlers.

The autopsy showed Suzanne had BAM in her bones, but testing doesn’t tell you quantity or anything. So even if they did have something to test against, I’m not sure there’s any way to compare.

And that’s assuming there is any chemical differences between batches.

Red-herringness/worm-can potential, [i.e. Eytan obstruction fodder], not risk-worthy! - - > IMCO

Thank you. I am sure one day I will check in and find BM arrested again. That should help me to feel better. Y’all keep up the good fight though.

Barry's deposition is going to be lit

Q: What does "this gonna be lit" mean. ?

A: "It's lit" means that something is really good, intense, fun, or exciting, similar to other slang terms such as poppin' or off the chain. !

I’m watching the BMW golf tournament which is being played in Colorado this week. They opened by showing a heard of elk, and later zoomed in on some wild turkey. The commentator talked about all the wildlife here (turkeys, deer, mountain lions, etc). I couldn’t help but think of Barry.
