OMG, I have no personal horse in the race of Linda Stanley or the idiot she replaced but that article is SO untrue it isn't even FUNNY. This case is POLITICS and I shouldn't say case because politics are now interfering with JUSTICE in many a case and the ones fighting care LESS about justice, and it's a political year after all, should I name the cases that have some true charges but are grandstanding and timing things for that reason and more...

I don't even and never will have time to explain all but I watched ALL of this come to be. And while some think there is only railroading of defendants, give me a break, she is being railroaded.

I am NOT saying she shouldn't have kept her education hours up and do you know how many haven't.

Judge baa baa Lama's decisions were totally an in pocket Denver lawyer judge. You'd even have to wonder about connection to Barry or someone Barry knew or $$.

I'm not even going to start on this because I watched all and I watched those other than these tainted stories from political press, etc. and the ones talking in it TO the press.

Doesn't it surprise anyone here that she is still DA? I mean all this sh*t over the last years, I bet most thought she was already long gone... Nope. Why is that...

Anyone know what they did to her here when she unseated the DA?

Anyone here know how bad that DA and the corrupt there NEEDED to be unseated or start to go and how she came in with that type of administration and other staff and employees?

Anyone know how they remove the DA's office from the courthouse almost right off the bat... It is the COURTHOUSE...

It's as corrupt as it comes and none of it is about Suzanne and the case but they used the case to do such and still are.

Not saying she shouldn't have done her continuing Ed hours etc. but HE77 how many I've seen do that, whether doctors, nurses, lawyers etc. and get an admonition....

Again I don't have a personal dog in the fight as to her but I know a lot more of what really went on than that one sided bs article AND how they are using this case and others we watch and know of where politics should NEVER play into justice for us average public or victims, etc.

That judge is either entirely bribed, corrupt or an idiot.

I saw it in the Frazee case too as to the defense attorneys and the DA in that county and more...

Colorado is long gone but I try to have a shred of hope not every county is like that and the one this case is now in will have someone in charge and a judge who doesn't do politics or use cases to do so.

Again it can all be found it there if one wants to try but you aren't going to find it with one sided biased articles like this.

And Barry Morphew is as guilty as they come and the prior one was doing NOTHING nor was LE who had bungled enough and she promised to see it through if elected and she did and charged him and it took some time. There's bs here entirely and BM getting this attorney is total BS too and the Lama coming down against any right to in Colorado law I READ, etc. A state that actually let him PROFIT from his wife's murder, vote for her and let that go, doesn't know what Webex is or what hacking is, and far more. I am just undecided if he is run by them, a pocket Judge, an idiot or totally STUPID.

She did not bring this case WRONGLY, that's b.s.

Done, there isn't any point other than to say I watched ALL OF IT from even back before she was elected.

And I've seen a few of the players in other cases in CO where very wrong things occurred to.

Let's just hope that the deeply entrenched sh*t there hasn't run to the new county and they actually have a side for justice and no one above that is going to come in and destroy seeing justice in this case OR around them in that county and CANNOT be their puppets...
 
I don't have a problem with Stanley. She was up against b.s. and politics and more from the start and I watched it all and not ONLY in "news". I don't know that this other county is clean either but please yes get it out of Chaffee.

Linda SHOULD have not had things like continuing Ed credits not being kept up that they could go after but she wanted justice for Suzanne and went for it despite a divided and NOT perfect investigation and more, most of which imo are major politics.\

Stanley knows it. Also getting it out of the hands of the llama who seems to be in Denver's pocket and Iris's back pocket is nothing but good. He is either corrupt or an idiot. Of course in Colorado the judges rotate circuits... Not sure in each area which ones...

ARREST this man. Lock your case and GO GET HIM!

Never have I had a case I more strongly know the guilt from early on. I've had a few that are even with such and a match for such. One was another CO case, Frazee (victim Berreth). And the same defense firm was involved. He was convicted but the one just as guilty was given a deal. And again the politics and influence could be seen...

A handful of others in other states. The West boys case (although they don't deserve their last name). More. Never hardly a shadow of a doubt.

Barry killed his wife. In my very strong opinion. He flaunts and he is disgusting and he sued with Iris and I hope this takes that down. He and his daughters, hate to be that way but there comes a limit, are disgusting. His weirdo attorney always has been as well, long before this case.
They have to be able to prove it. Are the chemicals in her bones enough proof?

Well it is fairly significant that it was already thought and purported in the arrest affidavit and the finding of the tranq cap in the laundry and more and they could not have predicted she would be found and where and that THIS cocktail would be found in her. I'd say it is pretty big. And way too coincidental. However, due to Judge Llama, intentionally spelled wrong by me, and all the b.s., I don't doubt they will prepare and button this up well before charging. Because of course one has the Denver power liar lawyer (gag) on the other side of the case which wouldn't go so far IF a judge is not influenced by clear falsehoods or isn't a Pocket Judge. Pocket Judge is my term... And wooly Llama either is one or is just stupid.

And these children are as bad or worse than the Daybell kids. Adults as well, one was when it happened.

Suzanne will get her justice. She already somewhat has. Anyone with a brain cell, exempt her own spoiled rotten girls, knows who did this, especially now. SHE saw to it those girls had and got all they needed or wanted but with the right intents.

Big differences though in them and the Daybell children. Yet the same...

This case is so political it isn't even funny. Politics should NEVER come into justice in the cases of average citizens but they do now. No one seems to notice or care though. Add the fact Llama doesn't to even know how WebEx works or how he bought into DNA B's and protected children with a sealed affidavit which is NOT a legal reason to seal it and far more and the fact Stanley won as DA and yes, politics are huge here.

In little old Salida, Mayberry...
 
This has been a pet case to me for a very long time. Meainng one I have totally followed every single thing on.

And as in some others politics and b.s. and infighting affected justice imo. Since the finding of her body and the results of autopsy, I have been waiting.

It is so clear and always has been her creepy hub did this. And now they have found the very thing said and suspected in her autoopsy.

I don't know if careful or building or no nerve to go forward but I sure hope to heck it is coming.

I felt a need to bum this in case they think anyone has forgotten and no longer care.

Her children are as bad as the Daybell children. I held back a LONG time in the early years of saying that but am beyond not saying so any longer.

It disgusts me this man is free and I pray for justice and can only hope they are working on an airtight case.
 
I saw something in a show headline on this the other night but did not get to watch it. This is a pet case of mine. Bothers me to no end.

I am waiting for charges. Just the fact alone she was found with tranz drugs in her which is what was said in the initial charges, then her body found and proof such is the case is a big strong point imo.

I rarely go 99.9 or 100 but this is one I won't hesitate. This man killed HIS WIFE. I will add the IMO.

And justice needs to be served. He has gotten away with a lot more than just murder, taking of assets, trying to sue, etc. It all FITS so well.

Their children are right up there with Chad Daybell's children. Talk about turning on your dead mother and being gaslighted by the murdering parent.

I felt Suzanne needed a bump and so I'm just giving her one.

I rarely say 99.9 or basically 100. Basically never. THIS ONE YES.

Talk about failures and a lack of justice. And that is in IN courts and CO...

Barry Morphew is a PIG of a man and their daughters, well, mom worried about them to no end and they care less and did about her.

I took some time, a long time, before coming to that. And gave the benefit of the doubt. But it's like Chad's kids. Nope. Look at Colby Ryan in comparison. He has struggled, that's his mom, but he SEES it.

Suzanne, the case may be quiet and all so wrong that has gone on, but there are a ton who are invested here and KNOW who did this and how your own children have turned on you.
 
I rarely do this as I just don't have the time but Scott's shows always cover several cases and news. I don't mind that but sharing the link if more than one case on here, etc. it takes going to each thread and posting, giving a time, etc.

This one IS a pet case of mine and VERY important to me. No connection or anything, just one that snagged me from the very start and I've seen all of from the very start.

So this is now the third thread I am posting Scott's updates in. Normally not all in his coverage are ones I follow but this is three in this show already today.

So Linda Stanley has been disbarred. I actually need to listen to the rest of it but linking it before I have because I won't get to it otherwise.

I do NOT agree with Scott on this one. Iris Eytan is as unethical as they come, connected and a liar. Now that does not mean Stanley did no wrong. Unfortunately there is power and POLITICS in this case to NO END.

Iris flat out convinced a dumb judge things were true of DNA that were not, AND that someone hacked the Webex, NOT, etc. I have seen her and her cohort Dru Nielsen (Patrick Frazee deal and getting Krystal Kenney off) too much and have a strong opinion.

I could not recall Dru's name and so I went and googled and I guess Iris is no longer there. Here is her firm and Linked In thing today....

I am NOT going to even take a moment to comment on this other than what b.s. it is. And to say or point out two years ago in 2022 she founded Eytan Law so I guess he split with Dru maybe over the Morphew deal...... Who knows... But it didn't last long as now she is a part of Rathod Mohamedbhai. I had to look back and forth five times to spell this right. Not sure what happened to Eytan Law so quickly Perhaps Barry wasn't paying enough to support it.

i've gotta say googling this surprised me. There are many on this case from the start out there that dig and are extremely involved and I'm not sure Iris's changes in firms and such are known...

From her Linked In. Stanley left herself open I know that much, she should have been sure she did all perfectly, but she was targeted from day one. But she left openings. However, I have followed throughout and if I see a serious lack of ethics, Linda Stanley pales in comparison to not just Eytan but others around this case...

I joined Rathod Mohamedbhai as of Counsel using my decades of trial experience and passion to pursue justice for people abused by governmental officials and discriminated against by their employers. I founded Eytan Law LLC in 2022 and often consult with attorneys on high stakes criminal defense cases. I have had a long career in civil rights and criminal defense litigation as a lawyer with Disability Rights Advocates, Disability Law Colorado, the Colorado State Public Defender, a Partner at Reilly Pozner, and as a Founding Partner at Eytan Nielsen, LLC. I will now focus my practice on civil rights, employment discrimination and criminal defense litigation support and consultation. I have handled criminal cases that have been filed or are being investigated by law enforcement in all of Colorado’s judicial districts. In addition to representing clients in criminal proceedings, I am extremely knowledgeable in the area of Title IX. I also led a civil rights class action against the Colorado Department of Human Services resulting in a robust Consent Decree which ensures people presumed incompetent to stand trial are given timely competency evaluations and treatment. I am currently in pursuit of reforming the criminal legal system to hold prosecutors accountable for the nationwide epidemic of prosecutorial misconduct leading to many innocent people being wrongly prosecuted and convicted. The project is called Protect Ethical Prosecutors (PEP) www.protectethicalprosecutors.org.

I have been recognized for my work in criminal defense. I am listed as a “Top 100 Trial Lawyer” by the American Trial Lawyers Association and have been AV rated (5.0 out of 5.0) since 2005. Since 2011, I have been selected by my peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® in the specialty of Criminal Defense: Non-White Collar. In 2014 and 2015 to the present, I have been named in the Top 100 Colorado Super Lawyers and Top Women Colorado Super Lawyers.

Due to extensive high stakes litigation, I am often asked to consult with other attorneys, judges and experts on cases involving trial techniques and prosecutorial misconduct. I have lectured before the Colorado Judicial Conference and other groups of criminal defense lawyers and forensic medical professionals.

I CRINGE when I see her say Top Women or Ethical. She is ANYTHING BUT.

Just MY opinion and it isn't like I just came to it either...

I didn't watch for the start time on this case but you can find it in the timeline with a time stamp as to where it starts.

 
Flip side, the decision reads like a twisted novel says Scott by some Supreme Byron guy and he thinks he is going to have to do a show just on this decision itself alone, line by line.

I said it, it's politics in this one, getting Stanley disbarred has NOTHING to do with justice for SUZANNE. It may have to DO with Barry's lining pockets or connections though... SMFH.
 
There's a lot more he has to say on this one. I am not going to take the time. Already I've put his video on three different threads and need to get some other things taken care of and not lose the entire day.
 
He says a LOT more on it..

I don't agree with it all.

Goes on for a bit.

No further comment as there's nothing but b.s. going on here and two sides to it for sure. POLITICS. Always has been.

What ABOUT SUZANNE??
 
I'll add this--she decision is apparently a very interesting read... I don't think he's fully on board with that...
 
Anyhow, so far the things after this third case I follow are ones I'm not interested in. Justin Timberlake for instance. We know such types won't see the same justice others do. Over and out.

I may have to read this decision on Stanley, not sure I will get to because it sounds like a whole lot of twisted b.s. and politics.
 
31 minutes in he covers Karen Read and her appeal...

I'm not going to that thread nor sharing it there, I mostly stay out of it, but if interested that news is on his video. And time stamped if you want to find it, even though I gave the time, about 31 minutes in.
 

Prosecutor in Suzanne Morphew case disbarred​

Nearly two-and-a-half years after the Suzanne Morphew case was dismissed, the embattled district attorney who led the doomed Barry Morphew prosecution has been disbarred.

In an 83-page ruling, the state office that regulates attorney behavior said that Linda Stanley "did not adequately supervise prosecution of the case," made multiple extrajudicial statements to the media about the murder, which threatened to prejudice Morphew, and investigated the district judge presiding over the case without credible evidence to do so.

In its decision, the Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel noted that it's not its duty to decide whether the prosecution team could have done a better job of prosecuting the Morphew case. Rather, it must decide whether Stanley "violated her duties" in how she handled the case, which a lead investigator likened to a "ship's captain who never appeared on the bridge."

Stanley's defended herself during her disciplinary hearing, noting that rural counties like hers in the 11th Judicial District are strapped for resources, and despite that, she was able to assemble a team of veteran prosecutors to litigate the murder of 49-year-old Suzanne Morphew.

In a nod to the high-profile nature of the case, Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel Presiding Judge Bryon Large noted that he is "concerned that the Morphew case has undergone an extensive amount of Monday-morning quarterbacking."



Complaints against Stanley as a prosecutor were not limited to the Morphew case. A case of child abuse resulting in death out of Fremont county frustrated the family of the 10-month-old baby who said they never got justice due in part to a sit-down interview Stanley gave to a local television station.

Referencing the case, the Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel board noted that Stanley, in an effort to rehabilitate her image with the media, made extrajudicial statements about the child's mother and boyfriend. This time, she noted that one of the defendants was guilty, impugned his character and revealed his "sexually based juvenile offenses," according to the OARC decision.



In the last several years since the dismissal of the Morphew case, the Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel received at least four complaints against Stanley, including one from the aforementioned judge, one from the Fremont County Sheriff, another from a citizen who helped with the initial searches for Suzanne Morphew, and one from Iris Eytan, Morphew's former criminal defense attorney.

"The most egregious unethical behavior Ms. Stanley committed was violating Barry Morphew's presumption of innocence using the national and local media to make it that appear that Barry was guilty before he even set foot in a jury trial," said Eytan, adding that she is encouraged to see that the system worked.



The disbarment is not effective until the order issues in 35 days. She has until Sept. 21 to file any motions and she has been directed to pay the cost of the disciplinary proceedings by Sept. 24.

I hope this doesn't kill the trial.
