No. No it doesn't. The bike dna could have been simply somebody touching it at any given time. Same as the helmet and the glove bos. Now, if they all matched, then it might mean something. There is absolutely nothing connecting them together though. None.

If you don't know who it belongs to, how do you know it is unconnected then?

 

[Tresir]

No. That's a fact. That is exactly how they are handled.

It's not fact because your first statement assumes the bike was new and we don't know that. Also, if BM threw the bike over the cliff edge and also chucked the helmet further on, why is his DNA not on those items but there is unmatched DNA on them instead?

 

[Cousin Dupree]

They have. They have specifically mentioned the glove box but have never said anything about the other. Just that they found DNA.

To me, that doesn't mean it isn't the same.

This is what I have learned so far by reading it. JL destroyed evidence and kept quiet. That is why I am interested in him. She disappeared on a biking trip and he introduced her to biking. She had only been biking for about a month when she disappeared. I know LE have been looking at him too as they checked for both him and BM to discount their DNA from within Suzanne's vehicle. I would like to know if LE had any others they looked at. Haven't had a chance to read any more ATM. Waiting for LE.....

It will be difficult for them to charge BM without new evidence though right?

Don't know that I will catch up, see I am behind.

Reading the AA told you about JL and not about BM? Boy I need to reread it. Been awhile. She did not disappear on a biking trip! There is not an IOTA of proof of that, cops don't believe it, 99 percent of the public who followed this do not believe it. You yourself point out they looked at JL, questioned JL and in fact they had to find who JL was (that si me saying that one). I am sure they cleared it. Just when and how is it you think JL was in Colorado and killed her or even had someone do so? That is so out there yet you ignore all the time frame and lies by Barry?

JL is so easily explainable. He didn't want his wife finding out, his kids going through he77, his hometown knowing, Barry knowing who I don't doubt he was scared of as most claim of Barry, etc., etc. It became big and I'm sure he is thinking OMG, OMG, OMG they are going to find naked pictures, things we said, my wife and all my buddies and ccworkers are going to see and hear such, my kids are going to go through he77 at school, etc. That is ALL JL is and I am SURE they investigated him/it.

As far as charging Barry without new evidence, well there is big new evidence. They found Suzanne. And I PRAY that find results in Barry finally where he belongs. I hope if she was moved, that is obvious. And I hope if she was buried/disposed of that weekend by him that her phone is there, remnants of her clothing, the house sheet or blankets, etc. etc. AND even if they spread out on the possible routes for this easy trip from their home and search that they locate some things.

Heck imo they may already know it but they are going to take their time for sure. I hope to heck actually it ends up in a different county and in the hands of other officials and judges. And pray that the new judge isn't what the present one is.

I am going to apologize ahead for the fact you are going to likely see impatience and frustration from me. You are entitled to your opinion but if you haven't followed from the start and only do print and TV news, etc., you aren't going to have a good idea of this case. You are not going to know the politics, the idiots who have affected things or his gross attorney and I have to wonder even just how he ended up with her...

The DNA is not an issue to me. Nada. None. Zilch.

I already told you that I did follow early on. I stopped following once BM was arrested as I thought it must have been a slam dunk. Then he was released so I recently started following again. If LE do not resolve the DNA of this sexual offender in her vehicle then I don't think they will be charging anyone unless they have more evidence from Suzanne's body.

There is no point me reading over 100 pages just to reread the BM evidence because I am already reading that multiple times on here.

CBI sets up tip line for Suzanne Morphew investigation​

DENVER (KDVR) — The Colorado Bureau of Investigation has set up a tip line dedicated to the Suzanne Morphew investigation.
The public is asked to report any information about the case either by emailing cdps_suzannemorphew_tipline@state.co.us or calling 719-312-7530.
Morphew disappeared on Mother’s Day in 2020. She reportedly left her Chaffee County home to go on a bike ride and never returned.
What has happened since Suzanne Morphew disappeared in 2020?
More than three years later, on Sept. 22 of this year, her remains were recovered near Moffat in Saguache County – about 40 miles south of where she was first reported missing.
A week later, CBI conducted a “comprehensive search” near Moffat in relation to the case but did not release information on what was being sought.
As of Monday, there was no new information that could be released, according to CBI.
No one has been arrested or charged in relation to Morphew’s death since her remains were found. However, her husband had previously been charged but those charges were later dismissed without prejudice.

Where are you getting the info that she did not go on a bike ride that day? You have her already dead before that day right? Where do you get that from? You have followed this much longer than I so you hopefully can answer that.

I have an open mind regarding who did it and need convincing, much like a jury does.

From all the same things almost everyone does includiing LE. Her last proof of life, Barry's lies, phone records, you name it. The fact the bike was staged and Barry's busy-ness over certain times, truck telematics, and also again his lies, phone in airplane mode and a kazillion things. Longggg before charges ever came and the AA alleged the same thing, most all did not believe the bike ride. The fact that BARRY planted the entire bike ride idea and directed it all that way and then lo and behold... Known to ride in afternoons but he said morning just for one example out of kazillions.

But then of course there is the AA and all the reasons why.

This isn't a case where most doubt that, this is a case where it has LONG BEEN believed by a vast majority for many reasons she did not go on a bike ride and was NOT alive on Mother's Day.

I don't have time nor am I going to go down a road of providing all the reasons and finding the info especially when the AA encompassing a lot of it has been linked here again recently as have shows that give a good recap of the case, I linked one recently Cuz watched I believe finding it to implicate Barry beyond what he would need, although of course the DNA bothers him, but other than THAT, he said it was PLENTY.

I am behind in this thread right now as it is. However, all the reasons and discussions are here and all over the internet. Motive, means, opportunity, lies, plans, faked scenarios and alibi and more. I'm not going to go down a road at length of rehashing all of it.

I'd love to convince you since you need it as you say but sorry I don't have the time to do that. It's all out there. Not likely in short news print burbs though. So many have dissected it all over and over and even went to CO and more. I also am not going to go down a Jeff Libler road. As you yourself say, they did look at him and he was dismissed. You have to be convinced of Barry but seem to have latched onto JL lol. He's just a guy who is a cheating husband who panicked at this all and the chance of his wife and kids and all finding out. He didn't drive to Colorado and stage the bike for goodness sakes and all the other. BOTH he and Suzanne had interest in keeping it quiet from Barry AND his wife for one thing. She was on with Libler on Saturday and I'd guess they can likely verify he wasn't chatting with her from a location near her. Part of it may be that you aren't from here and don't realize how far MI and CO are from each other. JL was in Michigan. Barry, however, was in CO and THERE. The girls were conveniently gone. Barry painted a rosy marriage and nothing could be further from the truth. Barry was there, each and every day of that weekend. But what, Jeff snuck in on Sunday and got her on her bike? Okay....

She was also expecting a bad, hard weekend with Barry.


I have to quit. I work quite early today and am not going to go down this road anyhow. How much of the AA have you read?

No offense intended. And I'm sorry I don't have the time to even keep up here but I don't. And if I did go and provide more than there already is, I know you don['t watch videos, etc. anyhow.

Ok thanks, no offence taken I have heard all this already. So why isn't it enough for LE to convict? Why have they let him go and are now asking for more info?( (Rhetorical questions BTW I don't expect answers, just wondering.) I do know how far Michigan is from Colorado. I have visited Chicago, Mi and driven down to Kentucky from there so I do know how far that is to Colorado. I have also visited several other states in the US including CA, NY, NJ, VA, GA, FL as well as DC several times too and driving between them. The two of them met in person several times too (6 times I believe) so it was not considered too far for that.

I am wondering about the request that they need more tips. If BM is a slam dunk, I am now wondering what tips would they now be looking for. I heard that the remains were scattered and some bones missing and am thinking they are not going to get any evidence at all from her remains because of that.

 

[Guess Who]

It's not fact because your first statement assumes the bike was new and we don't know that. Also, if BM threw the bike over the cliff edge and also chucked the helmet further on, why is his DNA not on those items but there is unmatched DNA on them instead?

Ok. If it was used, we are adding even more potential for random DNA, right? I was using the way the least amount would be provided. The bike still went through all I mentioned above if it was used. It just went through even MORE people if it was used.

 

[Guess Who]

To me, that doesn't mean it isn't the same.

They specifically state it.

 

[Guess Who]

I already told you that I did follow early on. I stopped following once BM was arrested as I thought it must have been a slam dunk. Then he was released so I recently started following again. If LE do not resolve the DNA of this sexual offender in her vehicle then I don't think they will be charging anyone unless they have more evidence from Suzanne's body.

Again... The DNA does NOT match the sex offender!!!

It led them to the guy who lawyered up.

Mountain bikes get very muddy as they have no mud guards so would get cleaned and hosed off a lot more than regular bikes IMO.

 

[Tresir]

Asking is far different than stating as a fact.

I am stating what I have read and have provided sources. I don't know what more you want. You seem to be saying because none of the DNA matches other DNA it should be discounted. I don't follow that logic so you will need to explain that.

 

[Guess Who]

It led them to the guy who lawyered up.

that doesn;t make it a match though. Not at all.

 

[Guess Who]

Mountain bikes get very muddy as they have no mud guards so would get cleaned and hosed off a lot more than regular bikes IMO.

And your point is? It looks like you are the one assuming things. That's assuming she went through the mud, isn't it? Hosing off also will not necessarily wash off dna, depending on where it is.

 

[Tresir]

that doesn;t make it a match though. Not at all.

From Fox link posted upthread-

DNA was found, however, on Suzanne Morphew’s glovebox. The partial profile investigators were able to obtain matched profiles developed in sexual assault cases out of Chicago, Phoenix and Tempe, Arizona, CBI agent Joseph Cahill said during a hearing in 2021, as The Denver Post reported. Barry's DNA did not match that sample, his lawyers told KUSA-TV at the time.

 

[Guess Who]

I am stating what I have read and have provided sources. I don't know what more you want. You seem to be saying because none of the DNA matches other DNA it should be discounted. I don't follow that logic so you will need to explain that.

Your source on what you thought was the meaning of partial dna disputed your understanding of it and explained exactly what I have been saying.

 

[Tresir]

And your point is? It looks like you are the one assuming things. That's assuming she went through the mud, isn't it? Hosing off also will not necessarily wash off dna, depending on where it is.

You quoted all the handling of a new bike as an example, even though you assumed it was new and didn't know for sure. I am quoting the extra washing a mountain bike gets due to use on muddy trails that would remove DNA, as an example in comparison to, for example a regular road bike with mud guards. It's just a discussion point in response to your discussion point. It's not an assumption of anything.

And that very article says it was a PARTIAL match. Since that article also contradicts itself, it's obvious that the writer also does not understand partial match vs match.

"when investigators testified that male DNA found on the woman’s glovebox matched partial profiles linked to three unsolved sexual assault cases."



The part you highlighted even says partial match. Again, a partial match is not a match. IF they were sure of a match, they would have a search warrant for his dna then and definitely by now since her body has been found.
