Found Deceased CO - BARRY ARRESTED AGAIN - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee Co, 10 May 2020 *Case dismissed w/o prejudice* *found in 2023* #117

Any shoes were also missing, not only her feet. IF BM tried to present the skeleton of a ("missing") cyclist at Moffat, he forgot Suzanne's shoes. Why did he add her clothing to the bones, if not her shoes?
The no feet-- with other bones missing, I don't find this strange. With the shoes also missing, it's incredibly strange, and there probably is some incredibly creepy angle to it, am guessing certain body parts were completely inaccessible or obliterated by the time he returned to move the remains. But what's the nature of it, why inaccessible, why obliterated? And would want to know the other missing bones.

Exactly.

Those who knew her best knew her to have half a cup in the morning, something she savored.

She drank coffee every day.

That tells us nothing about which day she was murdered.


"The autopsy proves...." she had coffee on Mother's Day. Never minding that an autopsy couldn't prove any such thing, what's more likely, that she went nearly 24 hours without communicating with those with whom she typically did and was murdered after that cup of coffee OR her cup of coffee a day early, some time before her digital footprint died an abrupt death moments after Barry arrived home, circled the home, and barreled through walls (doors, as I like to call them) with a prefilled syringe containing BAM in his possession?

Suzanne never saw coffee on Mother's Day, Jane. Suzanne never saw Mother's Day. Barry made sure of it.

YEP. Agreed. And this makes total sense to me. The D's already playing circus sleight of hand, it's going to be a poop show for the D, jmo.

I hate quoting my own post, but just still thinking on the bones and missing shoes. I was thinking it wasn't as unusual that there were missing feet because there are other missing bones-- but this actually is just as weird because there was no predation. At first, I was assuming well, there may have been predation at an earlier time. But just looked it up and they can tell based on all those bones recovered if there was predation.

Not liking to be so graphic, but is it possible that there was indeed predation to some extent and the bones were moved in part for that reason? And that's why there is not a complete skeleton? I have no idea if that is possible.
 
I wondered if people might find this testimony of Dr Alexis Gray (forensic anthropologist) interesting to watch, regarding the murders of the McStay family, whose remains were found in shallow graves in the desert. She discusses things like missing bones, decompositional fluid, bleaching of bones (some unexposed bones weren't bleached and were darker meaning they were still relatively moist), weather/climate and animal predation, determining how long the bodies have been exposed/buried, etc

They were murdered in 2010 and their remains were discovered in 2013.


 
The Coffee is a red herring. Irrelevant.
Exactly. The BAM is the problem, not the caffeine.

Barry couldn't resist trying to "outsmart" the detectives. He tried to anticipate what they might find and how they might interpret it and then he would pre-release the information to seem like an innocent man. He never thought in a million years they would find his wife and be able to detect those drugs in her bones.

Barry admitted he had access to a highly restricted drug cocktail and spoke at length with detectives about how he was familiar with using it, brought it with him from Indiana, stored it in the garage, and likely disposed of it on the day his wife went missing. He was trying to create the backstory in case detectives traced the things he had thrown away in Bloomfield and found the BAM vials. He never thought they would be able to detect BAM in her bones.

I am still rolling around in my head how he actually did this after he drugged her.
 
Edit - above post should read BM taking MG vehicles . Morgan G. was an employee of Barry’s. She stated that she heard her truck outside her house at 5am. I can’t help but wonder, did BM swap out trucks , drive MG truck to where he hid SM and drive back. Possibly MG may have left her keys in the car. By doing this, there would be no proof BM car was nearby, if SM was found. Just a thought. MOO .
I seem to recall Morgan saying she thought she heard Barry's truck outside her apartment.
 
I don't know or have forgotten, if MG heard HER truck or rather HIS truck in the early morning ...... (I think, it was HIS truck).
Using her car for something dubious - that might be possible, IMO.
She heard his truck outside her house. And at that stage he did not contact her. just a thought.
 
I seem to recall Morgan saying she thought she heard Barry's truck outside her apartment.

correct - and my thought is why? Could BM have swapped out trucks (if MG left keys in truck) to move SM, so that his truck data would show that he was not in the area a body, if found was found.
 
I seem to recall Morgan saying she thought she heard Barry's truck outside her apartment.
yes -and my theory is that BM parked his truck 'stole MG' truck dumped SM body, and returned MG truck. If a body was found - look, my truck data shows that I was not in the area. just a wild thought.
 
Oh my. I have missed that. OK then, I will stop obsessing about that ring then. :( :( He is absolutely disgusting, I agree. He is going down. Finally.

EBM: But then my brain goes...."are we SURE he melted the ring?" and "diamonds don't melt, do they? hey google ... "
Yes @dkaras ….. and I see that @gammagirl beat me too it. My response and initial thought to your question about whether diamonds ‘melt’? In the case of BM, yes, quite likely that they might melt…….. decompose, or otherwise disappear. ;) /s. MOO

'wild thought' ..... did not happen.... if she heard BM truck before he 'stole' her truck 'if she left the keys in her truck' ( smh ) .... when he returned her stolen truck and left in his truck .... why didn't she hear his truck when he left? .... just a wild thought

Were all of the Morphew vehicles searched thoroughly? I think one of them did not have the sophisticated telematics as on Barry’s truck. A daughter’s vehicle was at the house, and who knows if he had access to other vehicles as well. I always thought the starts and stops and moving his truck close to the garage meant something. I’d like to know if he usually left the bobcat the same way when he was at the house.
 
IMO, l doubt that a random abductor would have burned SM’s journal, surely BM would not. 🤔
I just think many things that were speculated about in the AA we won't hear about and the Christmas wrapping paper, file hangers and things in the fireplace that some people think like the journal etc. are one thing we won't hear about. I strongly suspect we will hear about the things they can give proof for like telematics, gps, images of the gun safe and things in the garage.... Many disagree so for all it's a wait and see what approach the state takes.

He had access to the Cushman’s vehicles his neighbors at the Puma Path subdivision. They had two dwellings and rented as Airbnb at times. Barry plowed and looked out for the property. Oh and Sho happened to be the cleaning lady. JMO

I recall that the truck backed up like 85' ...

I wonder if they had another vehicle in the garage that he needed to get to. Maybe he was jockeying cars, maybe pulling Suzanne's vehicle into the garage. It was important whatever it was.

Interesting @Curiousobserver …… reflecting on some of this and that supposed ‘morning coffee’….. I wonder too if maybe BM might have put something in her coffee? Or had wanted too? But perhaps there wasn’t time for that if he had arrived home in anger. Speculating on this on my part. MOO

Thank you for this testimony. It explained quite a bit I didn't know, and sent me back to that case for more research 👍
 
The caffeine thing is a big nothing. It's not going to tell you which day she died. It's just as consistent with her having caffeine on Saturday, the day BM did the crime. This will not be mentioned in defense arguments at the trial; well it would be laughable if it were. I can't even imagine what their arguments are going to be. Verdict will take 2 hours or less.

Even before the BAM result, I thought they would have an easy trial if they would ever just hold one. The phone data tells all we need to know, like in so many trials nowadays.

Don’t disagree at all @Smelly Squirrel …. my point for asking, is wondering if it is part of a certain suspect's ‘narrative’ perhaps? His story? Time will tell much in this case once evidence starts getting entered for trial. MOO
