Found Deceased CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, did not return from bike ride, Chaffee County, 10 May 2020 #39

Talking to heaven, before going to hell?

maybe they should search a little in the direction he's pointing. is his guilty conscience/body language giving us a clue? especially if this was posed.

Can't fall asleep... Physically tired, but mind wide awake. I was thinking... Suzanne lived in a very beautiful setting. Especially with the leaves changing ... Very serene and peaceful. However, i don't think that she could ever really feel this way at Puma Path. She likely walked on egg shells. Afraid she would say or do something that would trigger him...

There are other houses around Puma Path; it is actually much less physically isolated than i thought. However, the Morphew home is very private. Can't see it from anywhere around as it is downhill from barricated road and tugged away. Only place i was told is to climb mountain on other side of U.S. 50 and you can see it from top, but that looked extremely difficult.

She must have felt so alone... so isolated... so vulnerable...in this very beautiful place...

Take care of yourself, and be well. Your effort to be there is a true inspiration. Thank you.

I am confused, If that is px of BM, who is photographer? someone has said it is a re-enactment?which brings up another question, who is the person who relayed this to AM?

I get very confused with AMs recollections, and I think I need printed transcript to refer to. I thought I heard AM say he was with BM when he laid on the ground, now we are trying to find out who relayed this story to AM. Is this some form of bad editing? I assumed it was px of BM, now I don’t think so, that was a private moment, whoever was with him...

If someone in your vicinity has a phone with a camera, there is no expectation of privacy even if that person is a friend.

I don't understand the significance of the photo of a prostrate BM. It's odd for sure, but ... beyond that?

I believe it was diversionary in some manner. I think that is the thought of others, but can only speak for myself. MOO.

NoSi, I know how being there must be very emotional but I hope you'll get the rest you so very much need.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Do what you can but take care of yourself, first and utmost.
Sending love and appreciation for your caring effort. <3

The person taking a pic is likely in the car down the road. It's not bad editing, it's a photo on a public road.

My guess is that tomorrow is day 5 of the search:
w th f s su.

Maybe a temporary hiding place?

I reckon that's it, yep, day 5 and it'll all be over .... number 5, no need to search any more.

@GordianKnot... No cameras on US-50 that i could see between leaving Salida and Morphew residence except potentially at a Shell gas station at 11326 W US-50 in Poncha Springs. Other than that, there really isn't much when it comes to businesses street lights with traffic cameras etc. There is a ski rental place on right side right next to a camp ground, but white object below roof seems more like a light. I didn't stop thou. I can tomorrow if it would help.

Hmmm.....Looks like BM’s frat party at Puma Path is about to get busted . Good thing he put up all those trail cams!

I do worry about how they’ll take him down. He’s a scary guy in my estimation. The Puma Path residence looks like a fortress and where I could imagine a nasty stand-off

Not a chance they take him at his house. They know he’s armed, and he has the advantage in that situation. They’d want to get him away from his weapons.

I’ve said this before, but that’s precisely why they like to take these guys in a traffic stop; it’s safer for everyone involved.

BM goes out to run some errands, and they light him up.

That’s how they took down Patrick Frazee.

CM talks about it here at 5:45.
I’m going to have to sleep on it and listen again tomorrow.
Right now it’s clear as mud to me.

Hi @marylamby... Thank you so much for your kind and caring post. I unfortunately struggle with sleep at baseline. It doesn't take much. I am just in a state of anticipatory anxiety about what tomorrow (well, later today) brings and yes, sleep suffers when that is the case. I so very much want Suzanne to be brought home to Indiana. I realize that Colorado could have never truly been or became "home".

Very nicely said. I too wish that had been the Suzanne's experience.

Top of Monarch Pass... 11,312 feet.

 

[NoSI]

I think Old Monarch Pass was searched on Day 1 and/or Day 2.

Opposite site of US-50 a bit below area of Morphew home... Searcher up in area...

This possibly stands out (or not) / Also, this reminds me of Dylan Redwine, found across the way from the house, up the mountain.

(Curious about this, sorry if already discussed, I peek in when I can.)

Has this area been searched? (eta: I would imagine so since it is close). Have dogs been in that area? Also, are there forest roads right around there? I’m curious to zoom in on the terrain. (ETA: Iirc, Mark Redwine used the forest road(s) for access to the mountain across the house.)

(Eta2: sorry for not being up to date and informed on everything.)

Yes be great if she is there at the beach site.
Is anyone else scratching their head about this possibility though?
All the amazing secluded wilderness of Colorado...to pick a waters edge? That rises and falls???
wouldn't he surely know that a rivers edge is the most likely place for erosion and the possibility of a body exposing itself over time???
no matter how great a wall he was building.... I mean, that's why he was there building the wall...to help with the erosion

Think he would have been better off pulling a chad daybell and burying her in his own yard.....IMO less chances of her actually being found at home with his 'expertise' and resources avail to him.
The property is big and remote enough that he just might have pulled it off.

But we don't know yet, it's exciting to have HOPE for the time being.
We are rooting for you ANDY!!

MOO

It might not be her, but maybe the weapon or tool used to kill her. But I thought the beach site should have been looked at again after MGs bit about him wanting her to rake that out well.... MOO

This is what other side of US-50 looks like. However, this is a bit further towards Salida, but terrain is similar.

There's a lot of sand around there. Where does BM get his sand for landscaping?

(Thanks, we posted at the same time. I was just wondering about that, thank you.)
