Colorado Springs’ Fox affiliate reports:
Barry Morphew was arrested for first-degree murder on May 5, 2021, nearly a year after his wife, Suzanne Morphew, was reported missing. Her body has still not been found. But in April of this year, after spending five months in jail and several additional months under court-mandated supervision, the murder charges facing Barry Morphew were dismissed without prejudice.
However, Wednesday’s court date revolved around charges against Morphew for forgery of public records and an election mail ballot offense. Those charges were filed after Morphew was accused of filling out his missing wife’s ballot and submitting it in her name. As part of a plea deal, Morphew agreed to plead guilty to the forgery charge. Ultimately, Morphew was sentenced to a deferred one-year sentence of supervised probation.
