CIRCUMSTANCES OF DISAPPEARANCE

On Mother’s Day 2020, Suzanne Morphew vanished from her home in Salida, Colorado, after reportedly going mountain biking and never returning. Her disappearance sparked a massive search and media firestorm, with early suspicion falling on her husband, Barry Morphew. Despite a murder charge being filed in 2021, the case unraveled when prosecutors dropped the charges just days before trial, citing the need for more time and potential new evidence. Suzanne’s remains were discovered in September 2023, over 50 miles from her home, reigniting public interest and raising new questions about what really happened to her and whether justice will ever be served. In June of 2025, Barry Morphew was indicted for the first-degree murder of Suzanne Morphew and extradited to Colorado. Details are still unfolding in the murder of Suzanne Morphew.
