Barry Morphew Indicted Again for Wife’s Murder

Barry Morphew has been indicted again by a Colorado grand jury for the first-degree murder of his wife, Suzanne Morphew, who went missing in May 2020 and was later found buried in a shallow grave in Saguache County in 2023. Prosecutors allege Barry used a tranquilizer dart on Suzanne, chased her around their home, and staged her disappearance as a bike accident. Evidence indicates Barry was the only private citizen in Colorado with access to the specific animal tranquilizers found in Suzanne's system. Barry was initially charged in 2021, but the case was dismissed in 2022 due to prosecutorial misconduct and the absence of Suzanne's body. He was arrested in Arizona and is being extradited to Colorado for trial. The case has been marked by legal setbacks, including the disbarment of the original lead prosecutor.
