A grand jury has indicted Barry Morphew for the first-degree murder of Suzanne Morphew.
Suzanne Morphew's remains were found in September 2023, and her death was ruled a homicide caused by 'undetermined means in the setting of butorphanol, azaperone, and medetomidine intoxication.'
Barry Morphew had previously been charged with the murder but the charges were dropped before trial.
The case is now being prosecuted in the Twelfth Judicial District Attorney's Office, and Barry Morphew is in custody in Arizona awaiting extradition.
Why this matters: This arrest marks a significant development in a case that has drawn national attention, offering a potential path to justice for Suzanne Morphew and her family.
Suzanne Morphew's disappearance in May 2020 sparked an extensive investigation. Barry Morphew was initially arrested in May 2021, but the case was dismissed nearly a year later due to issues that later led to a disciplinary board recommending disbarment for the then District Attorney. The discovery of Suzanne's remains in September 2023 and the subsequent autopsy revealed the presence of drugs used to sedate animals. The grand jury's indictment suggests that new evidence or a reevaluation of existing evidence has led to the renewed charges. Barry Morphew maintains his innocence, and his attorney claims the government is allowing their predetermined conclusion to lead their search for evidence.
Q: What caused Suzanne Morphew's death?
Her death was determined to be a homicide 'by undetermined means in the setting of butorphanol, azaperone, and medetomidine intoxication.'

Her remains were located near Moffat, Colorado.
