The remains of a Colorado woman, Suzanne Morphew who went missing in 2020 have been found, according to the authorities.
Morphew, a 49-year-old mother of two, was reported missing from her home in Chaffee County on May 10, 2020, authorities have said.
Her husband was charged with her murder, but the case was dismissed because the prosecutors were still looking for her body.
Suzanne Morphew’s remains were found during a search Friday, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation said, and the El Paso County coroner positively identified them Wednesday.
“Although locating Suzanne’s remains is a critical component of this investigation, and for her family, we are left with many more questions than answers,” Chaffee County Sheriff John Spezze said in the statement.
Barry Morphew’s attorney, Iris Eytan, said her client and the family’s daughters are in grief over the news that Suzanne Morphew’s remains have been found.
“They had faith that their wife and mom would walk back into their lives again. The news is heartbreaking,” Eytan said in an email.
According to her, Barry was innocent, and the police should go after those responsible for the death.
