Suzanne Morphew’s girls are standing by their father, who is missing in Colorado.

Suzanne Morphew’s grown children are speaking out in favor of their father only weeks after charges against him were dropped and as the ladies approach the two-year anniversary of their mother’s disappearance. Barry Morphew talked with ABC News, surrounded by his daughters Mallory and Macy Morphew, for the first time since the murder charges against him were dropped.

“We’ve decided we finally want to break the silence,” Mallory stated in the Friday interview.

Suzanne Morphew has been missing for two years, when she was reported missing on May 10, 2020. A Colorado court had approved prosecutors’ petition to drop the charges against Barry in connection with her disappearance less than a month before.

In May 2021, Morphew was charged with murder, tampering with a deceased human corpse, and tampering with physical evidence, among other charges, in connection with his wife’s disappearance and assumed death in May 2020.

According to a recently published court document, prosecutors in Colorado’s Eleventh Judicial District urged a judge on April 19 to drop the charges against Morphew “without prejudice,” which means they may re-file charges if new material became available.

According to the story, Macy Morphew stated, “It’s been an emotional rollercoaster, but we feel like we can now take our first steps in healing, which is a gift.” “We just know our father better than anybody else, and we are confident that he was not involved in our mother’s abduction.”

Morphew’s case was scheduled to go to trial just weeks before he was dismissed.

“In most homicide cases, the fact of the victim’s death is rarely in question, but in this case, the most important fact to consider is whether Ms. Morphew is alive or dead.” “Further forensic examination might possibly inculpate or exculpate the Defendant if the body is found,” the prosecution’s brief adds. “Given the need for more research.

Investigators had planned to collect Morphew’s remains in a secluded region near the couple’s mountain home before the trial, but whether hampered their attempts, they said.
During the interview, he stated, “I simply love my girls, and I love my wife.” “All I want is for her to be found.”

Suzanne Morphew was reported missing on May 10, 2020, Mother’s Day. The family informed authorities she had gone on a bike trip and never returned.

In conjunction with the case, the sheriff’s office claimed it collaborated with law enforcement partners to execute more than 135 search warrants statewide and questioned more than 400 persons across various states. Over 1,400 tips were investigated by law enforcement.

Morphew concluded he couldn’t influence his wife’s choice to leave him, so he “resorted to something he had done his whole life — hunt and control Suzanne like he had hunted and controlled animals,” according to a 131-page affidavit published after his arrest.

However, Morphew’s defense counsel informed ABC that her team will sue the district attorney in the case and demand a review of the prosecutors’ mismanagement of the investigation.

“Go find Suzanne if you want to respect Suzanne and the daughters,” defense attorney Iris Eytan said. “Prosecutors must be held accountable and must pay for the harm they have caused to Barry, which is practically irreparable. Because it’s difficult for anyone to think Barry isn’t who they say he is.”
