A Colorado man suspected of killing his wife was charged Friday for the second time with first-degree murder in her 2020 death, the 12th Judicial District Attorney's Office said in a release.
Barry Morphew was previously charged with first-degree murder, among other charges, in May 2021 in the killing of his wife, Suzanne Morphew, who was last seen on Mother's Day in 2020.

Officials took Morphew into custody in Arizona on Friday...
