CO - BARRY ARRESTED AGAIN - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee Co, 10 May 2020 *Case dismissed w/o prejudice* *found in 2023* #119

I fear the Defense will flip the script and say BM wasn't the only one in the State, in the county, in the home who had access to his BAM. He'll plead guilty to tampering, abuse of a corpse, etc, but claim he didn't kill anyone, that the victim died herself. Shameless defense if they do it. BM was the suicide-threatener. Suzanne wanted to not to exit her life but to re-start it.

But yes, I think he'd sink this low.

BM is a wicked man, I agree. I also tend to believe that if his efforts to suppress evidence fail, he may do a Brian Walshe as you suggest - the last refuge of the scoundrel. It didn't work for BW and it won't work for BM. MOO.

BM will bring his mama (with a nice letter) to the court, just like BW did, I bet. MOO

I'm sure the Court is looking forward to a nice letter... If so, we'll see how helpful it would be. SMH.

Happy New Year folks.
Did I have a memory lapse last year? I don’t recall ever hearing that Suzanne’s remains contained a bullet?

The body of the 57-year-old’s wife was found in late 2023 in a shallow grave in Saguache County, In April, 2024, the autopsy report was released, revealing the remains contained both a chemotherapy port (she was being treated for cancer), and a bullet.

Wow. Okay. Either this evidence was intentionally withheld from the public, which I understand for the investigation. Or, this is bad reporting and they are speaking about the bullet (or bullet casing, IIRC) that was in the area where her remains were found. Could or could not be connected to SM. I figured likely not. IMO

Could the Ark Valley site have been hacked and the article edited to add that? I guess I should email the news site to clarify.
ETA: Actually - I just sent an email to Jan Wondra, author of the article.

Personally I do not recall a "bullet" found.... I believe I would have put it in my notes. I do have the cancer port in my notes.

It's got to be misreporting. I will let you all know what I hear back from Ark Valley. If I do hear back.

For now, I'm going with this version:
Within the autopsy report, a forensic anthropology and forensic odontology exam was conducted to determine identification and cause of death. Aong with Morphew’s remains were found weathered and dirt covered clothing items, which are believed to be her bicycle clothes, and one “weathered bullet.” The report didn’t indicate the relation the bullet had to her remains.

Thanks - I added that to my notes.
