You’re probably right. Although, it’s like the top story on Colorado news many nights. I’m not sure how they could avoid hearing some of the more damning reports. Willful ignorance I suppose.
Remember, the news media never tells the whole story!!!!!! (heavy sarcasm) Give it a bit and the stupid twits will be on here screaming that he's fucking innocent.
 

Case dropped against Colorado man accused of killing wife​

A judge Tuesday dismissed the case against the Colorado man accused of killing his wife, Suzanne Morphew, who vanished nearly two years ago on a Mother’s Day bike ride.

Barry Morphew was set to stand trial on April 28 in the presumed death of the mother of two, who was declared missing after she failed to return from biking in Chaffee County in May 2020.
 
But prosecutors were granted a motion to dismiss the case “without prejudice,” which will allow them to bring new charges against him later, CBS4 Denver reported.


District Attorney Linda Stanley said in a Tuesday morning filing that investigators need more time to find Suzanne’s body.


Stanley indicated that the prosecution believes her body is located in an area covered deep in snow near the couple’s former home.
Doesnt sound like its a done deal. Looks like they want to make sure they get a conviction. The court rejected their main witnesses so to go to trial without a body and without your key people taking the stand, he'd probably have been cleared. At least now they can still bring charges up if shes ever found.
 

Missing mom Suzanne Morphew’s body ‘in a very difficult spot’ as investigators seek to prove she was murdered​

Investigators believe they know where missing Colorado mom Suzanne Morphew’s body is located, but that it is “in a very difficult spot” and that gathering enough evidence to prove she was murdered could still take years.

“She is in a very difficult spot. We actually have more than just a feeling … and the sheriff’s office is continuing to look for Mrs. Morphew’s body,” 11th Judicial Deputy District Attorney Mark Hurlbert said Monday, according to the Denver Gazette.

Hurlbert made the stunning claim during a hearing called by attorneys for Barry Morphew — the missing woman’s husband and former suspect in her murder — who requested to keep records in the case sealed indefinitely.
 
The remains of missing Colorado mom Suzanne Morphew have been found more than 3 years after she was last seen. The Colorado Bureau of Investigation has positively identified the remains as that of Morphew.
Morphew was last seen on Mother's Day three years ago, May 10, 2020. Her disappearance made national headlines and the investigation was featured on the CBS News show "48 Hours."

Suzanne Morphew left behind two teenage daughters and a husband, Barry Morphew, who was not only the prime suspect in her disappearance, he was also charged with her murder.
According to the CBI, the remains were located during the course of a search on Sept. 22 and those remains were positively identified as that of Morphew of Chaffee County by the El Paso County Coroner on Wednesday.

Investigators were searching in the area of Moffat in Saguache County on an investigation not related to the Morphew disappearance when the remains were discovered.
"While this case has garnered attention from around the world, it has touched our community and the sheriff's office deeply," said Chaffee County Sheriff John Spezze in a statement. "We have never stopped our investigation and will continue to follow all leads in pursuit of justice for Suzanne."
No arrests have been made since the remains have been located.

"Although locating Suzanne's remains is a critical component of this investigation, and for her family, we are left with many more questions than answers, and it would be a disservice to conduct a news conference at this time," said Spezze in a statement.
 

Suzanne Morphew’s body was dumped in remote Colorado area known as ‘The Boneyard’ — where aspiring Marine was found months prior​

The body of Colorado mom Suzanne Morphew was dumped in a remote area known as “The Boneyard,” where an aspiring Marine was found dead earlier this year and another woman went missing in May.

James Montoya, 26, disappeared in early April after leaving a bar with two men the night before he was slated to meet with military recruiters, his mother Carmen Montoya told The Daily Mail.

His corpse was discovered in July near Moffat, Colorado during an unrelated search for Edna Quintana, 55, who went missing in the same area in May.

Investigators were continuing to look for Quintana last week when they found Morphew’s remains in a shallow grave in Saguache County — roughly 45 miles from her home.

‘They’re calling it The Boneyard because so many people are being located there, and it’s such a secluded area,” Montoya’s mother told the outlet.

She said she personally went to the isolated site after her child’s remains were discovered.

Morphew, who lived with her husband Barry and their two kids, vanished in May 2020 after setting out for a bike ride.

Investigators discovered the bike discarded in a ditch near their house the day after she went missing.

Both Barry and Suzanne Morphew reportedly had affairs during their volatile marriage, and Suzanne told her spouse that their relationship was finished just days before she disappeared.
 

Suzanne Morphew, mother who went missing on bike ride, died by homicide: Autopsy​

Suzanne Morphew, the Colorado mom who went missing on a bike ride in May 2020, died by homicide, according to an autopsy released Monday, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation said in a statement.

Her death was determined to have been caused by "Homicide by undetermined means in the setting of butorphanol, azaperone, and medetomidine intoxication," according to the autopsy.

"These drugs are marketed as a compounded injectable chemical immobilizer for wildlife," according to the autopsy from the El Paso County coroner.

There was no indication of trauma to her body at the time of her death, according to the report.
