Barry Morphew was arrested and booked into the Boulder County Jail on September 3, 2026, for failing to comply with an outstanding warrant from Alamosa County. Morphew, who is awaiting trial for the murder of his wife, Suzanne Morphew, had been released on a $3 million bond with strict conditions. His arrest follows a Denver hit-and-run investigation, where video evidence reportedly shows him as the perpetrator, raising concerns about a potential violation of his release terms. A judge had recently tightened his restrictions, requiring him to stay home at all times. A bond hearing for his Alamosa County case is set for September 8. CBS Colorado is seeking more details on the arrest, and the story is ongoing.
