2:16Now PlayingThe Sept. 22 discovery of Suzanne Morphew’s remains in Saguache County has the potential to completely reshape an investigation that stalled out after prosecutors decided to drop charges against her husband in April 2022.
Ryan Brackley, a longtime prosecutor who has been a criminal defense attorney since 2019, said he believes the investigation should be treated like a cold case – and be put in new hands.
“You always want fresh eyes,” he said. “You always want new ideas, new people looking at these cases. Ideally, in a cold case, you are building off the work by prior investigators. You're building off the narrative and the theory.
“I don't think that it makes a lot of sense in the Morphew case, given the history.”
It’s a history that has been fraught with controversy since Suzanne, 49, was reported missing on May 10, 2020.
