Barry Morphew Jailed In Boulder On Warrant Before Murder Bond Hearing

Barry Morphew was arrested around 9:11 p.m. Thursday, September 3, 2026, and booked into the Boulder County Jail on an outstanding Alamosa County warrant for failure to comply.[1]

Morphew is awaiting trial in Alamosa County on charges that he killed his wife, Suzanne Morphew, and had been free on a $3 million bond under strict conditions.[1] A judge recently ordered him confined to his home at all times after a Denver hit-and-run investigation raised concerns about possible bond violations.[1]

Prosecutors say video obtained by CBS Colorado clearly shows Morphew as the hit-and-run driver, and they filed a new motion that led to the Alamosa warrant.[1] A bond hearing in the Alamosa County murder case is scheduled for Tuesday, September 8, 2026.[1]
