Barry Morphew is an accused killer who faces charges for the disappearance and murder of his wife, Suzanne Morphew. While he was just arrested--he has a five year history of rage, emotional outbursts and speaking out publicly about what is was like to find out about his wife's affair. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #true crime. In this episode, STS digs into Barry Morphew's past plus we share more true crime stories in this Friday special. STS's Emmy-award host Joel Waldman is joined by fan favorite STS #BestGuests: Legendary Detective Fil Waters Retired FBI Agent Scott Duffey Barry Morphew has been re-arrested and indicted on first‑degree murder charges in the death of his wife Suzanne Morphew, who vanished on Mother’s Day 2020 in Colorado. Prosecutors allege Barry used a powerful animal tranquilizer known as BAM (Butorphanol, Azaperone, Medetomidine)—the only legally prescribed user in the area—to drug Suzanne, whose remains were discovered in a shallow grave in September 2023 with BAM traces in her bones. Investigative breakthroughs include detailed cell‑phone data, truck telematics, surveillance footage showing Barry discarding items in trash cans, and tranquilizer equipment found in the marital home. The couple’s troubled marriage—including Suzanne’s secret affair and discussions of divorce—adds context to the charges. As this high‑stakes true‑crime saga unfolds, with Barry held on a $3 million bond and awaiting extradition from Arizona, the case draws national attention to Colorado cold case murders and animal tranquilizer homicide.⸻ #Support the show:All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast#barrymorphew #suzannemorphew #truecrimecommunity #murdermystery #trial #crimenews #funfriday #stsnation Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Diddy’s defense team delivers powerful closing arguments calling the sex‑trafficking charges ‘badly exaggerated’ and alleging this is all "driven by financial motives." Defense said this is a story about domestic violence and urged jurors to see Combs' swinger lifestyle as consensual--not criminal. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this episode Emmy-award winning host Joel Waldman brings you the best recap and highlights key moments from today's defense closing arguments in Diddy's 2025 trial. Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing serious time in a high-profile sex trafficking and racketeering trial that has captivated national attention. If convicted, Diddy could face decades in prison for allegedly running a criminal enterprise involving sexual exploitation, drug trafficking, and financial coercion. The prosecution has called several bombshell witnesses, including former girlfriend Cassie Ventura's testimony along with ex-bodyguard Roger Bonds, and multiple Jane Does who detailed disturbing allegations of abuse and control. These explosive testimonies have painted a picture of a dark underworld behind Combs’ glamorous image. With the stakes this high, the Diddy trial is one of the most watched celebrity legal battles in years, and the verdict could change the hip-hop mogul’s life forever.⸻ #Support the show:All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast#diddytrial #diddy #truestory #celebrity #new #criminaljustice #trial #hiphopnews #stsnation Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
