Found Deceased CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee Co, 10 May 2020 *Case dismissed w/o prejudice* #106

[DizzyB]

Laser focussed on her own career is how.

This is her big case. I am sure she feels cheated out of the chance to win it.

IE and her firm were able to to get this case dropped, but not able to prove Barry’s innocence. I wonder if IE will use the same tactics when she goes back to court for him. It will once again not be about Barry and his involvement, just them showing that LE and the state did a bad job when they were attempting to prosecute Suzanne’s killer.

Putting feelings aside none of them live in Salida nor does the Moorman family so not surprised no one made the trip from either side. If the media would have caught wind either side’s family were there it would have been a circus in my opinion.

Yes, the Morphews have certainly put their feelings for SUZANNE aside.

The couple's daughters, Mallory and Macy Morphew, told ABC News that the last three years have been "literally our worst nightmare." But they are standing by their father.

"I've never had a shred of doubt," Macy Morphew said.

"Not one," Mallory Morphew added.

Both daughters said there was no indication before their mother vanished that something was amiss and that they never observed any concerning disagreements between their parents.

[…]

"It's very hurtful to lose your reputation and your integrity," husband Barry Morphew told ABC News in an exclusive interview airing Monday on "Good Morning America."

[…]

When asked whether he has anything to do with his wife's disappearance, Barry Morphew told ABC News: "Absolutely not."

"They've got tunnel vision and they looked at one person and they've got too much pride to say they're wrong and look somewhere else," he added. "I don't have anything to worry about. I've done nothing wrong."


[…]

"I know that $15 million is a huge number but I don't think that, in my mind, that covers any of the damage that's happened to Barry and the girls," Fisher-Byrialsen told ABC News.

"If they would just look for Suzanne outside of where they hypothesized Barry could've possibly buried her remains, they could find her," Eytan added.

Suzanne Morphew's husband and daughters speak out for 1st time since filing lawsuit

Suzanne Morphew's husband, Barry Morphew, and their two daughters, Mallory and Macy Morphew, spoke exclusively to ABC News.

There is SO much wrong with the picture at the top of this article.

I wonder how long they had to practice to get those sad, worried looks.

Still bugs me... Barry calling Backhoe Joe midday on that ill-fated Saturday.

I don't think he was suddenly in the market for an attachment. IMO it was a call to see where Backhoe Joe was... because Backhoe Joe had something Barry wanted. To help himself to. I just don't know what. A whole backhoe? A second Bobcat? An attachment? Like, say, an auger?

Or... did Barry need to borrow a SIM card?

I sure hope LE looked very carefully at whatever equipment Backhoe Joe had because, unbeknownst to him, it may have been used in the commission of a crime. Barry the borrower....

That call wasn't accidental.

He was up to something.

It might take some time, but I think Suzanne will speak from the grave and she will be found. Barry didn't have that much time to get this done. He couldn't have gotten far and I just don't think he could have dismembered her either in a chipper or otherwise or there would have been something somewhere of her. Blood, tissue or something on him, his clothing, his equipment, or something. Police were looking within 24 hours of her being gone (assuming he killed her or incapacitated her in that 2-3pm hour on Saturday) He was out of town by 5am the next morning so I just don't think he could have cleaned that up and left zero evidence of it. I think someone will stumble upon her hunting, hiking or biking somewhere, or someone that knows something will crack and speak. I don't for a minute believe Barry is the only person that knows anything at all.

@justtrish, agree. Don't know how often initial area where SM went missing was searched other than as stated in linked article. However, and this is speculation, but I'd say she would most likely still be within the vicinity of the area if I were to guess.

100-plus search for missing female biker in Colorado mountain town | OutThere Colorado

More than 100 people searched for a missing female biker in a Colorado mountain community on Monday, though they were not successful.

More than 100 people searched for a missing female biker in a Colorado mountain community on Monday, though they were not successful.

The previous evening, at approximately 5:46 PM, the Chaffee County Communications Center got a report of a missing woman that had failed to return home from a bike ride near Maysville. Identified as Suzanne Morphew, 49, it was reported that the woman had gone missing in the area of County Road 225 and Highway 50, which is near Fooses Dam (see map below) and approximately 14 miles west of Salida. It’s also worth mentioning that the 485-mile Colorado Trail cuts through this swathe of land, making it a popular spot for outdoor recreation and backpackers that might be passing through.

I agree.

He ends the job on Saturday to go home and "make his wife happy". Then when he gets home, instead of going in the house, he wanders around for an hour and then goes to Backhoe Joe's. He also says he went home and had soup, yet he's texting Suzanne as if he didn't just see her (well because he didn't see her he was wandering the property not inside having soup with her).

I remember discussing those Bobcat records and the last entry in that Bobcat was really odd. Not sure what it meant, but could it have been the SIM being removed? I know we all discussed it and never did get answers about that. Would the Bobcat work without a SIM in it? If not then maybe he did get another SIM so he could do something evil and sick with that Bobcat before returning it and the SIM the police would retrieve wouldn't show any of it?

I am an individual that thinks the possibility exists that she is not anywhere near Maysville....if there was an other or others involved. BM could be genuine in stating that he has no idea where Suzanne is regardless if he participated or not in her disappearance in some way (or the assumption that she is murdered and deceased.) All the "driveway" activity from telematics during the nighttime cemented this possibility in my mind. Total speculation like lots in this case...but this is my personal speculation.

And did LE pull data records from other SIM cards?

That would rot if there's a SIM card out there that recorded exactly where Barry went between 11 pm and 3 am and no one knows about it.

 

[Megnut]

Recurring questions I ask myself:

Was Suzanne hidden away between 3 and 10 or 11 and 3?

Was a vehicle involved? Borrowed truck? Out-of-towners'? Have a hitch? ATV? On foot? Either/or/all?

If he had about 4 hours to work with, what's the ratio of drive time vs barry time? 2 hr drive, mere minutes to dump and run. 15 minute hike, ample time for concealing.

Even in a spare vehicle, he'd have been seen on the Monarch CCTV.... so I don't think he traveled any distance, at least not in that direction.

Based on the cadever dog hits on the Bobcat and trailer, either Barry used them for concealment or he stepped/sat that morning, after having been with a body.... a body nearing 12 hrs post death IMO


If he didn't spend much time on travel, then what he did must have been labor intensive.

I've still got three:

Mineshaft, "professionally" sealed
Animal den
Burial

What was he doing that took four hours?????

 

[AmandaReckonwith]

I'm angry about that interview.
I cannot even explain why I just got so mad I could throw a rock at the screen.

 

[Lyanna]

I watched the GMA segment in silence as I couldn't bear to hear the tripe coming out of their mouths. Even with subtitles on, I still found it nauseating and despicable. Particularly found the purposeful looks into camera quite grim.

The whole lawsuit thing is typical of a narcissist jmo. Narcissists love to surround themselves by others who ignore, enable or encourage their behaviour. ANYONE who attempts to hold them accountable/responsible will be accused of the same things the narcissist themselves, is guilty of doing, ie lying, witholding facts, hiding evidence and so on. Everything Barry, himself, has done since 2.44pm May 9th 2020.

Hoping beyond hope this lawsuit backfires so much that Barry explodes and the truth comes out.

Just made me sick to see his face and hear the lies. UGH, just go away Barry.

All the "driveway" activity from telematics during the nighttime cemented this possibility in my mind. Total speculation like lots in this case...but this is my personal speculation.

The only things I am certain of are Suzanne didn't voluntarily disappear, run off to South America, or harm herself and Barry is involved and knows that Suzanne didn't do any of the previous things either.

Outside that I am open to the possibility that Barry arranged it, hired someone, blackmailed or bribed someone, etc. I do lean more toward him knowing where she is than not, but I think it's possible he doesn't know.

I'd love to know where Barry went when he left for hours/days at a time as a punishment to Suzanne. When he would leave and not call her or text, where was he? Did he meet someone? A girl or just was he dealing in anything shady? Did he have a place in the wilderness he retreated to and maybe that is where he put her?

I do think people are afraid of him. It sounds like even if some of the rumblings we have heard are true about business deals or just how difficult he could be on job sites, then maybe he had dealings with others that were like him. Maybe COVID threatened to expose some of the shady dealings because we know the economy went down fast when the world stopped. Something added more stress to him and created the storm that ended up with her death. Maybe it was as simple as he was losing control of her and he didn't like it. She had new found freedom with biking and maybe even some inspiration to live fully since she was finishing up cancer treatment. Maybe he sensed that she was serious this time and done with his games or maybe she discovered something in the business dealings that could sink him. It's hard to say because he seems to be good a lying or at least good at keeping people quiet. But, I do think it's possible someone equally as icky as him was involved and maybe that person has a lot to lose if they come forward and rat out Barry so they keep quiet too.

 

[Elliot_Alderson]

<modsnip> She rode her bike a little bit and then decided to float away mid ride?

 

[Twistinginthewind]

I wished the interviewer had asked him what he thought happened to Suzanne. Would he say a mountain lion got her, or she was abducted off her bike, or she ran away to live on the streets (a la the photo IE put forth), or would he say she ran off to Ecuador to await her lover? Which one would he say now?

I sorta understand GMA not pushing back on the daughters when they said that they saw nothing concerning in the marriage. At least some of the articles showed the juxtaposition of Suzanne's texts that seem to show otherwise. He's got them lying on national television IMO. What a scum bag.

Good points, @Tumbleweed If he did answer the hypothetical question of what he thought happened to her and it went towards "she was having an affair and I think she could have run off to Ecuador with her lover/boyfriend".

That would be a joke (I mean easily disproved), IMO, because not only was she in treatment medically, that IIRC was ongoing, so that fact alone would keep her from leaving the country, but, um, her lover/boyfriend is right there and has not "fled the country".

MOO

<modsnip - quoted post was removed>

Very curious indeed. Plus you can already tell that IF/when they find her, it has been so long that they may not even be able to tell what happened. Hopefully they will have some camera or phone evidence linking him to the site but I think if they had it then they'd probably have already found her. JMO

Toxic narcissism is all about total control and it is often achieved through gaslighting. It is what Patrick Frazee did to not only Kelsey Berreth but also her family after she disappeared. At first, they did not believe he was involved. LE finally discovered Frazee had manipulated his lover into being his accomplice. It won't surprise me if Barry had a female accomplice.

He's definitely a narcissist. I live for the day both him and Bill Coker are brought to trial.

The third picture of Barry attached from the interview is that of petulant three year old. About right. Nobody backs ole Barry into the corner. He is the kid who tells you he did not eat the cookies, even though the crumbs are all over his face. And screams louder and louder in denial until it's tantrum time. Its just how he lives his life. IMO
