The Murder of Suzanne Morphew

 On May 10,2020 Suzanne Morphew went missing on mother’s day she was last reported seen going on bike ride. It wasn’t until three years later when authorities were in pursuit of another missing persons case Mrs.Morphew’s body was uncovered. While it was in fact heartbreaking to know that her life was taken too soon. However this just raises more questions making the idea of this death suspicious. Reports say that Suzanne was relatively new at mountain biking,because of that no one would think twice about her dying from a biking accident. Leading to a conclusion I have come to after careful analysis that the one responsible for her death is her husband Barry Morphew. 




         During the investigation investigators discovered a rather large collection of text messages leading up to her disappearance with a close friend that marriage was rather unstable.  It was in one message that she said “I feel no peace when he’s here”and proceeded to say “I would not feel safe alone with him.” Investigators also found a deleted message sent by Suzzane to Barry on May 6,2020 which was four days before her disappearance which said “I’m done. I could care less what you’re up to and have been for years.We just need to figure this out civilly.” There are also reports that Mrs.Morphew did in fact have a secret lover that she messaged over fifty-nine times. These repeated text messages show that the marriage between Barry and Suzane was on the rocks and that Suzane was planning on leaving her, giving him a motive to kill her. 





As previously mentioned Suzane was reported as being rather new to mountain biking which means that whomever did this would believe that everyone would assume that it was all an accident. However when looking at the area where the bike was that’s not the case, Sheriff deputies found the bike on the side of a cliff off of a road from the family. What’s interesting about the scene is that there was “No clothing,blood,or evidence of struggle wear found near a bike”. Investigators also said “Her sunglasses and hydration backpack were found inside her car.” With these lack of evidence and other conditions not met it is very easy to say that the entire scene was staged to make it look like an accident especially when the helmet was found roughly one mile from the bike and that the body was found forty miles from where she went missing. 




Furthermore, the doorway of the master bedroom was damaged leading investigators to believe that this damage was a sign of a struggle when Barry shot his wife with a tranquilizer dart. After this Barry’s phone records were tracked around their home he told that this was all caused by chipmunks. However the pattern itself was so erratic going from both within their and outside their home.


In Conclusion I believe that the person responsible for the death of Suzanne Morphew was Barry Morphew. It doesn't make any sense for a person to carry a tranquilizer gun when they like to go hunting. It is well affirmed that he did in fact have a motive to commit the crime. There are also multiple scratch marks around his arm. This is John Henrick saying……………







CASE CLOSED.
