Tranquilizer Drugs Found in Suzanne Morphew's Bones — Barry Morphew Faces Murder Trial AGAIN

Barry Morphew pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder Monday in the death of his wife Suzanne Morphew, who disappeared Mother's Day 2020. This marks the second time he's faced these charges. The first case imploded in 2022 when DA Linda Stanley's office failed to meet discovery deadlines and withheld key evidence from the defense — including unknown male DNA found in Suzanne's vehicle. Stanley was later disbarred for misconduct. Suzanne's remains were found accidentally in September 2023 in a shallow grave near Moffat, Colorado. An autopsy revealed BAM — a tranquilizer used on large animals — in her bone marrow. 
Prosecutors say Barry Morphew is the only private citizen in the region who had access to that drug, and he admitted using it weeks before Suzanne vanished. Court documents describe a troubled marriage: Suzanne texted Barry "I'm done" four days before disappearing, confided in friends about abuse, and had been secretly planning to leave him for a man she'd been seeing for two years. Barry maintains his innocence and says investigators have "tunnel vision." His attorney says this case will end the same way the first one did. Trial is set for October 2026. We cover the full timeline, the affair, the forensic evidence, and what prosecutors need to prove this time around.
