It has been two months since Suzanne Morphew was reported missing in Chaffee County.
In that time, investigators have followed-up on hundreds of tips and conducted a number of searches in an effort to locate Ms. Morphew, who was reported missing on Mother’s Day, May 10, 2020.
Chaffee County Sheriff John Spezze revealed that in addition to countless interviews conducted in the last two months, more than 600 tips have been called into a designated tip line, and many searches have been performed throughout the county.
On July 9, 2020, local, state, and federal investigators returned to search the Morphew property west of Salida to once again search the area for any additional information related to Ms. Morphew’s disappearance.
“This case remains very active, as more than a dozen investigators are aggressively working this case on a daily basis,” said Chaffee County Sheriff John Spezze. “And until we determine what happened to Suzanne, we can’t discount any scenario or formally eliminate anyone from suspicion.”
The public is asked to continue to report any information about this case by calling (719) 312-7530.
The Chaffee County Sheriff’s Office is being assisted by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in this missing person case.
To date, no arrests have been made, and Ms. Morphew has not been located.
The Chaffee County Sheriff’s Office will release information related to the investigation as it becomes available.
There are no pressers planned or interviews being provided by the Sheriff’s Office at this time.
