Trying a defendant for the same crime for a second time, known as double jeopardy, doesn’t apply if that first trial was held in a foreign county, the Colorado Court
Accused murderer
Barry Morphew, 53, is in even more legal jeopardy in connection with the disappearance and presumed death of his wife and alleged victim
Suzanne Morphew, 49. The Colorado man allegedly cast a ballot in the missing woman’s name for the 2020 presidential election. Incidentally, it was for incumbent
Donald Trump.
The Chaffee County Clerk made a report of voter fraud in October 2020, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by Denver Fox affiliate KDVR-TV. The ballot was in Suzanne Morphew’s name, even though she had been reported missing from Salida, Colorado by a neighbor on May 10, 2020 Mother’s Day after she did not return home from a bike ride. A week later, Suzanne’s husband, who at that time was not charged in his wife’s presumed death, appeared in a video pleading for her safe return home.
