CO - BARRY ARRESTED AGAIN - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee Co, 10 May 2020 *Case dismissed w/o prejudice* *found in 2023* #118

[MassGuy]

From episode four footnotes:

This interview took place in the summer of 2024.
Full disclosure I This podcast was recorded in Danish and translated to English.

Given Edna Quintana was not found until June 17, 2025, this can't be Edna!

IMO, this reference by BM thinking he'd be free because body found -- as retold by Jane, must be a foreign/Danish word referring to SM being found(??).

Human remains found in southern Colorado confirmed to be woman missing for over two years

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation said human remains found in Saguache County were confirmed to be those of a woman missing for over two years.

If it’s “Suzanne,” then it’s confirmation of what I believed since the indictment.

Barry wanted that body found.

She’s telling on Barry without realizing it.

 

[Megnut]

IMO this was Js thinking after the autopsy was released. She may (or may not) have changed her mind after seeing the GJ indictment. Let’s see whether any of these claims are put forward in motions or part of the trial.

I thought it was interesting info about the cost of an autopsy and that BM had no money and could not obtain work.

It would also be interesting to see what experts they manage to get with no budget (but I guess the state will pick up reasonable costs of experts?). I do agree somewhat with the assertion that those who can afford a good defence stand a better chance of retaining their freedom.

Brilliant move at the original autopsy to have broad representation, multiple agencies present. Zero chance the BAM was planted.

And zero chance a dead body metabolizes BAM.

A second autopsy won't help Barry, she's already floating it that he/they can't afford one, as if that's why it hasn't been done. It hasn't been done because IMO it'll confirm the first.

Podcaster is talking about the image of Suzanne as a perfect person and how it's not true.

SBM no one is perfect, but that does not mean that a person should end up dead because of those imperfections.

In respect to what George allegedly told the eldest. If true, this could explain why the girls have remained close to B. I wonder if George or the eldest will be called as defence witnesses?

 

[Seattle1]

J's initial thought to explain BAM went to the "corrupt LE present at the autopsy, and now including the "corrupt coroner"-- because this is an elected position!

Whether or not the IP came through with $60K-$100K since summer 2024 (date of podcast) for a second autopsy is unknown but now that BM has been Indicted, the defense will receive some monies from the State for their investigation but probably not sufficient to hire "celebrity" experts to perform exams or analysis.

Smell test.

Let's say it happened, the exchange between S and G. Why on earth would G tell a daughter that, and in confidence? Just to saddle her with it? While her mom is missing? How does sharing such an exchange benefit the daughter? He just wanted to unburden himself? Thought she'd make a suitable confidante?

It rings hollow.

You don't attack your own witness. In the PCA, it was clear that Barry had a man crush on George, and I later think we learned that Barry gave him some of the GoFundMe money.

This is a huge change, and there's a reason for that. I think George is a prosecution witness.

I am finding it difficult to believe it actually happened.

Well, exactly.

JMO

I agree, it does. That’s why I said allegedly.

 

[Megnut]

Perhaps the best part of the podcast, Jane is asked directly if she'd represent a guilty man. Long long pause while she sucks air. Then a tidal wave of words before concluding the real truth, she'd defend a guilty person vigorously too. My paraphrase, but point not lost.

Yes. Law Enforcement knew abit more than they used about the dynamics of the Morphew marriage that were revealed in some of the interviews that were public form the first case but it's not really relevant nor will it be unless prosecution does something that forces defense's hand. The George element was an interesting train of thought in the interview. Both sides have had years to develop their case so I'm secretly hoping it goes pretty quickly.

So you believe that the trial will be kept to essential facts and that Barry will quite quickly be found guilty.

 

[Tragg]

LOL. Jane claims Suzanne could have been given BAM during cancer teatment.

Accuses law enforcement of putting the BAM there, whatever that means. Again claims that hunters commonly use BAM (thank God the state did their due diligence).

"Have others in mind it could be (the killer)."

Accuses George Davis. Calls him search leader when Suzanne disappeared. Claims he worked for Fish and Wildlife, which would involve him using BAM. Moved far away when they started searching for her.

Jane talked to eldest daughter about BAM and who had access. Daughter said that she was alone with George during the search, and he said "your mom was very overly affectionate towards me." She was flirting with him and she followed him into men's restroom at the gym.

Jane is asked if Barry will be charged again, and she says yes (this was last year).

After "searching and searching and searching," Jane just so happens upon Necrosearch while she is looking for a botanist to help her investigation. Jane is apparently ignorant that Necrosearch was involved from the beginning, and of course they were also involved after her body was found. I knew that and mentioned it again last week, because of the names on the autopsy report. Does Jane not have Google/common fricken sense?

Necrosearch tells her they only work with the police. Jane then finds out this botanist happened to be involved in this case. Amazing!

Barry "ran out of money a long time ago." Experts from Depp case were hired to go through phones and computers. Astronomically expensive.

He can't get any work.

"I thought that when they found Eda (Edna Maybe?) (big question about this part at 15:50 or so) it would be over, and I would be free and could live an ok life."

If that's translated correctly, and I'm hearing correctly, that's a very strange thing to say.

Talks about poor Barry getting a stomach ache every time he sees Jane's name come up on the phone.

The BAM is a "bad fact."

Lol, compares this case to the Central Park 5 in that the confessions there were also a "bad fact."

She's really worked up about this botanist, and what she found (movement of the body).

Doing that thing where the US justice system is corrupt. "They've determined its him and won't admit they made a mistake."

Jane goes on and on about Stanley, but talks about how it does not apply to the new prosecution.

"I expect him to be accused and charged." Her goal is to put him in the best position to get this over with.

Infuriating part here. Podcaster is talking about the image of Suzanne as a perfect person and how it's not true. She also talks about Barry being a "victim of the system." She annoys me as much as Jane.

I really wish we had this translated before, because none of us would have thought for a second that Barry's arrest was not inevitable. Jane was losing sleep over it, and saw the train coming from a mile away.

I will hazard a wild guess that Kelly and Johnson have anticipated all the speculative defenses JFB can throw at them. They are PR, and not very effective PR IMO.

I think Kelly has been wise to take the time to forge a relationship with her communities before filing this case, and that she will scrupulously avoid any action in her handling of the case that would put public trust in jeopardy. As JFB admits, any abuse happened in Stanley's case and it isn't relevant to this one.

I am sure if you had a candid moment with her, she would acknowledge that not all bad facts can be overcome.

Fans of Kohberger's attorney Anne Taylor see her as victorious because she managed to save her client from capital punishment even though he will spend the rest of his life in prison. I wonder what will be the measure of victory in JFB's defense of Morphew? A plea to a reduced charge doesn't seem to be on the table.

 

[MassGuy]

Still trying to decipher that “Edna/suzanne” line.

Contextually, it seems like maybe Jane is saying that Barry thought everything would be over after the first case was dropped.

The eldest is a chip off the ol' block(head), if you ask me.

I'm no fan of George, but I don't believe for one red hot, skinny minute that he ever told her that.

If anybody told her that, it was Daddy Dearest.
Or she made it up herself.
Or Jane made it up.

Jane has quite the fertile imagination, as we've all come to discover.

JMO.

Interestingly, the auto-translate for the Fisher-Byrialsen interview gives a slightly different transcription -- “he said, we, I thought that when they found leader it would be over and I would be free…” (screen shot below). Not sure if it was a mishear, a misspoke or a mistranslation but as others have noted it seems to imply he wanted the body found on the theory that the prosecution could not place him in Moffat on the 9th or 10th of May.

Unfortunately for Mr. Morphew the forensics (or "damn forensics", as he would say) show that her body was moved after the 9th or 10th.

 

[Hilt]

The Jane Fisher-Byrialsen Interview (part 4) appears to be part of a book-plugging exercise for a radio station or podcaster in her home area in southeast Denmark (South Funen).

From the promotional blurb - Min kamp for Retfærdighed - ‘My fight for justice’ is the story of Danish star lawyer Jane Fisher-Byrialsen, who lives and works in the USA – and who became known at home for the ‘Malthe case’, where she fought to get the Danish education student who was accused of pedophilia during an internship in New York, acquitted. Jane tells her own unusual story in parallel with the fact that the biggest cases she has worked on are unfolding as true crimes, i.e. The Central Park Five, the Renay Lynch and Malthe case. We follow the investigations, the wrongful convictions and Jane’s legal work and fight for acquittals and justice. What many of Jane’s clients have in common is that they have confessed to crimes they never committed because the police lied and pressured them during the interrogations, so that they finally ended up confessing because they saw no other way out.

Interestingly, her claim to fame is representation in cases of false confession, yet Mr. Morphew has not only not confessed, but gone to exorbitant lengths to destroy evidence and create a false alibi.

Per Google translate, "Min kamp" translated to German is "Mein Kampf."

"Mein Kampf."

I mean, REALLY?????

 

[Smelly Squirrel]

I've been wanting to, but now I can officially say JFB is literally Hitler!

David Beller is also representing Robert Werking, the defense attorney who was representing James Craig in the poisoning death of his wife, Angela. Mr. Werking withdrew from the defense team last week and was charged today with felony arson.
Mr. Werking allegedly set fire to the home he shared with his wife, Lisa Fine Moses, who is continuing as James Craig's defense (jury selection starts Thursday).

What a wicked web we weave...
It will keep David Beller busy for awhile!
