The Chaffee County Medical Examiner on Monday released autopsy results for Suzanne Morphew, a Colorado mom of two who went missing from a bike ride on Mother's Day in 2020.
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation on Monday said Suzanne Morphew, a mom of two who went missing almost four years ago on Mother's Day in 2020, died by homicide 'in the setting of' drug intoxication. Authorities announced last year that Morphew's remains were located in the area of Moffat, Colorado, in Saguache County — about 45 miles south of her home in Maysville, Colorado, where the 49-year-old mother was reported missing on May 10, 2020.
Morphew's bicycle was discovered in a ravine along Highway 50 and County Road 225 in Chaffee County, near her family's Maysville home the same day she went missing. Barry said he was working in Broomfield, Colorado, a suburb of Denver, at the time. Barry was initially accused of killing his wife when he was charged with murder and tampering with physical evidence in 2021 in connection with her disappearance and presumed death.
Barry's legal team filed a $15 million lawsuit against prosecutors and investigators in 2023, accusing them of violating his constitutional rights. Investigators never found any traces of blood near the Morphew home in Maysville or in their family vehicles.
Text messages from Suzanne and Barry that were unsealed in June 2023 suggest they were both having affairs just before her disappearance. Four days before her disappearance, Suzanne sent Barry a text saying she was 'done.' 'I could care less what you’re up to and have been for years,' she wrote, adding that they needed to figure things out 'civilly.'
