After Suzanne Morphew disappeared, prosecutors said her husband killed her and cast her vote for Trump. Then things got messy.

after learning she had a torrid extramarital love affair, disposed of her body, and staged a fake bike crash to throw off investigators.

“In typical homicide cases, the fact of the victim’s death is rarely at issue, but in a case such as this, the most influential fact of consequence is whether or not Ms. Morphew is deceased,” 11th Judicial District Attorney Linda Stanley wrote in the motion. “If the body proves to be there, further forensic examination could potentially inculpate or exculpate [Morphew], which is incredibly important evidence for the jury to hear in determining the merits of the case.

“They never had a case,” Iris Eytan, one of Morphew’s lawyers, told The Daily Beast. “They knew last year that they did not have enough to file charges and they have been trying to manipulate and hide evidence to make their case work ever since.” “Oh Suzanne, if anyone is out there that can hear this, that has you, please, we’ll do whatever it takes to bring you back. We love you. We miss you. The girls need you. No questions asked. However much they want, I will do whatever it takes to get you back. Honey, I love you. I want you back so bad,” Morphew said in the video.

“My first reaction is relief. I’m just so grateful,” Melinda Moorman, Suzanne Morphew’s sister, told the local Fox affiliate at the time of his arrest, noting that she still loved her brother-in-law even “though he’s done a terrible thing.”Days later, Morphew was charged again with one felony count of forgery of public records and one misdemeanor elections-mail-ballot offense after allegedly filling out the mail-in ballot for Trump on behalf of his still-missing wife.

Authorities suggested in the affidavit that Morphew admitted to lying about his involvement in the case—and indicated that his wife’s murder “was a form of God’s judgment” for her affair. Morphew’s lawyer told The Daily Beast this week that his statements during the two-hour interview were taken out of context, and showcase a religious man’s attempt “to come to terms with finding out his wife had an affair.

“The decision to hide that DNA evidence from us alone should have ended this case,” Eytan told The Daily Beast. “They tried to conceal material evidence. They have been lying and hiding evidence that proves Barry’s innocence all along. Every single piece of evidence that didn’t help them, we think they tried to hide it.”
