Found Deceased CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, did not return from bike ride, Chaffee County, 10 May 2020 #36

Fair enough.

I'm curious if the newer areas to be searched are additional areas where BM's phone pings and gps showed up ?
As in, LE have covered some places but there's still much more ground to search ?
Idk, I think this is freaking sad for this beautiful soul .
Speculation : And to think that someone(s) might know exactly where she is or what happened, but they're more interested in saving their own hides ?
Repulsive.
Imo.

I agree with your "speculation".
And more speculation:
Seems to me that those that are still covering for BM might be in very very deep and may have been colluding and involved in the cover up from the get go. just my hunch.

Otherwise why would someone(s) continue to
look like they're siding with the 'enemy' ??
I believe they've already picked their sides by
helping in the earliest cover ups of the crime.
In other words, they're already in deep dog poo. So they have to keep piling it on by lieing
and stalling and not co-operating w/ LE. If that's what they're doing.

I'd sure like to hear their answers to LE on where they were and what they were doing on
the same days LE is looking at BM's travels.
And where were their vehicles, while we're at it.

Stay tuned, we may see more arrests when this comes to light.

Suzanne became friends with another female chemo patient and they would visit while in the waiting room waiting for treatments. The friend said when BM accompanied SM to her appointments that he was standoffish and unfriendly. This was told to Lauren a few weeks ago.

I think she also said she only saw him there once, and it was Suzanne's daughter who always went with her to treatments.

She was supposed to go to her last appointment on Monday. I wonder why BM never mentioned that, especially in the beginning when there was speculation about her going off on her own and possible suicide. One of the first things I would expect him to say is that there was no way his wife would have done that.

 

[DizzyB]

Did Lauren say she might have something today? There is a lot to unpack from yesterday-nuanced things. I still think Lauren has a shot at sitting down with Barry. As long as his attorney doesn’t lock him in a room first, of course.

 

[skyvoyager]

That’s a good question. NAMUS says the last contact with Suzanne was May 10. Has it always said that?

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

Not to be negative but NAMUS also states she was last seen riding a bicycle.... they may not be 100% accurate

 

[TIGER0822]

Just throwing this out there. AM is certain that SM is close to home. I don’t know your feelings on psychics but a psychic posted on FB “that she was in the wall”. It it is good to explore other possibilities other than he dug a hole. If she was in a wall this would give BM a lot more time than if he had to dig a hole.
I know with certainty that I read before Abby Hernandez was found that a psychic claimed that she was being held in a dark place (shipping container) close to home, and that she was being abused by the man who treated her. She claimed that she would only be released if her captor got a criminal/misdemeanor charge, she was the same day. All was correct.IMO

If anyone is looking for this terrific interview Tricia did last night - here it is (thank you @swedeheart ) and I've also added it to her media thread
CO - CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee County, 10 May 2020 , MEDIA,MAPS,TIMELINE *NO DISCUSSION*

 

[GordianKnot]

Unfortunately not, as that’s private property.

Not that I think she’s anywhere near there, but the image of all these strangers in his yard humors me.

This is going to be another stressful week for Barry, as Suzanne’s name will continuously be in the news.

On top of that, there’s an outside chance Suzanne may be found. He’s also going to have to figure out how to weasel out of participating in that search, and attending the vigil (I believe that’s on Friday).

BBM:

Oh, that won't be hard for an old hand like BM.

Here are but a few of the potential excuses he might trot out:

"There's nothing I won't do to find Suzanne. Unfortunately, I've received threats and I'm concerned for my safety and the safety of my family, so I've decided it's best that I not participate in this upcoming search."

"The focus of this search needs to be solely on finding Suzanne. If I'm there, all of the attention and focus will shift to me, which does her no good. So for Suzanne's sake, I've decided it's best for me not to be there."

"My daughters need me right now. Suzanne would want me to make them my priority, so I'm doing what she would want me to do and staying home with my younger daughter in case searchers find something."

"I would love to participate in this upcoming search, but it's clear that both LE and SM's family view me as the prime suspect, so my attorney has advised me not to go anywhere near the search areas."

"I had every intention of being there for SM's vigil and helping in the planned search, but I came down with a slight cough in the past few days. Out of an abundance of caution, I've decided to stay home for the health and safety of the other searchers. Because I'm the kind of guy who puts others ahead of myself."

If all else fails, he can always fall back on the old, "I wanted to come out, but my mom says I'm grounded."

Seriously, he's so predictable, we could write the script for his lines.

Come to think of it, I just did.

JMO.

 

[Fireflize]

Ok, so BMs statement about the Sunday eyewitnesses (and the fact he is emphatic LS share this info) is beyond strange.

Any chance he is trying to apply public pressure on two people to lie for him? Maybe it is a veiled threat? That's the only thing I can come up with, short of him just thinking people are complete idiots and will believe him. JMO, MOO.

Bbm
Moo
He does. I feel that he was raised to think that anything that came out of his mouth was gospel, especially when he got in trouble for his misdeeds. I see a pattern of behavior that indicates that whenever he failed or crossed the moral lines, the fault was attributed to someone else. Hundreds, heck, thousands of scapegoats later, here we are.

I feel that he has been supported by females his entire life and he has no respect for the gender that he could always manipulate. His choice of Lauren as his confidant was because she is a female. He thinks that she is stupid enough to go to bat for him with the bogus story that two witnesses saw Suzanne on Sunday. This is telling for his attitudes and expectations for special treatment and unquestioned loyalty.

Add to that his asking her if she believes in God. He played the trump card that has always worked for him with the women in his life, in my opinion. He has often needed and gotten forgiveness, when accountability would have served him better in the big picture.

I don't see evidence of a deeply spiritual man, who sought wisdom, but rather one that looked for loopholes and advantages, to better hone his power over his circle of characters.

There are labels for persons who behave like this which help us to understand and predict their behavior. They are deeply flawed, undeveloped in their innermost being, unable to tolerate slights or disappointment. Those who are unfortunate to be caught up in their gravity field suffer.

All evidence that I have seen so far leads me to believe that the chickens are coming home to roost for BM. He's at the end of his rope and all that's left is for LE to reel him in.
All my opinion.

 

[enelram]

Tonight on PE, AM was talking about the search. He stated that he does not think that the perp had enough time to take Suzanne far, that she is nearby and not well hidden.

Wow, that's valuable info and my hunch is that it came from valuable investigators.
This also tells me they have a pretty good handle on BM's travels.
Very encouraging, IMO.

 

[EggSalad]

I thought for sure he had turned on BM, too. Especially since we learned that TN was the first one who pointed out that the bike looked like it was thrown down the hill. According to AM, Barry didn't want to hear anything about that.

I do think he felt BM was innocent or at least didn't want to believe it. It's not clear how he feels now, since he has been so quiet. He might be in a very difficult position if he has always been loyal to BM.

I believe TN said to reporters that they should ask LE what condition the bike was in.

With better hindsight, I believe TN was spinning the GD & BM narrative that the bike’s condition was that 10 Officers touched it, moved it and the “evidence was ruined.”

I agree, but still think there's something else odd about the bike which hasn't been disclosed. Something that appears to have been tampered with maybe.

 

[enelram]

Let me get this straight, word about town is BM uses the same drug he has accused his employees of using?

Well that fits with what we have seen and would answer some of my questions, if true - MOO.

This is interesting to me.
If this is true (meth use), and some say BM was
hanging with much younger people, then maybe BM was re-living his youth- denying his ageing and maybe role reversals were also taking place in the M household.
BM was becoming the bad boy son and
SM was becoming the disciplining mother.
Bad dynamics, but it DOES happen.

 

[MrsWatson]

At this point, I'm willing to give TN the benefit of the doubt. I think he may have been buying what BM was selling, until maybe after the encounter with MG. Maybe then it hit him, this is not what BM is saying it is, and he backed far away from it. This also could have included a chat with LE.

I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt for now.

 

[Hatfield]

Im so encouraged by this large search effort for so many reasons.

First, I can guarantee that LE is not going to let this opportunity slip by without using it to their advantage. Meaning as they organize and break up into separate search groups, we can be certain that LE will be playing a big part in the areas that will be covered.

Secondly, even if no new items are found by the searchers, the publicity of the search itself is already paying huge dividends because we have heard of recent new tips starting to be called into LE. So one of those tips could end up being the one that breaks the case wide open, and we would have this upcoming search and Vigil to thank.

Finally, with this many resources and with the expected professional guidance they will get, there is a really good chance that more evidence can be found by them.

Prayers for everyone involved with the search and also for everyone here and elsewhere who are providing emotional, spiritual, and/or financial support.

Exactly. Now I’m waiting which one will he choose. Because I would be extremely surprised if he would show up to help.
The vigil is different because maybe he has some friends and believers who would make him feel strong standing next to him and this could mean a lot to her daughters. Nah, I don’t really believe he would show up there either.

Meth would make someone feel like the Superman he always knew he was. Steroids would explain the appearance. The two are not mutually exclusive. The combo would be dynamite for a short fuse. Moo

This is my take on TN-I think he got his butt dragged in, and then backed off once he realized he could be in a world of trouble if he continued to blindly support his Uncle.

In the present: if it is okay with LE-and I believe if TN is an honorable person, he should clear it with them-TN should be traveling to Salida to assist in the search for his beloved Aunt. If he doesn’t, and continues to ridiculously have his name associated with a Gimme, he deserves any shade thrown his way.

 

[K9Enzo]

Volunteer Searches - if I may - take care of your feet during your search. Do not wear new shoes/boots for the 1st time for this mission, tie those laces properly for support, pick up some moleskin and finally, do pack several pair of extra dry clean socks. Your feet will thank you

 

[Area52]

Not if LE told him not to "out" the witnesses. BM has enough trouble, without "Silent John" saying "You didn't do what I told you, now did you?"
IMO

I find it unbelievable to think that the person who has berated ALL LE involved in this case, publicly slandered 2 of his employees and hasn't spoken out but once for 26 seconds on his wife's disappearance would even consider a request from investigators to shut up! He's a big mouthed brazen liar, IMO!!
