2 things are routinely confusing: the daughters are variously reported as being "two teenage daughters," "two adult daughters," and "one teenage and one adult daughter." The husband is mentioned as being a "volunteer firefighter," which people understandably read as "firefighter." There's little mention of his actual job/career... way he earns his living. One article does say he's a business owner.

It's unclear what Suzanne does for a living. She does have a charitable foundation, but the listing doesn't say what it does or what its focus is. Media focus is admirably on finding Suzanne, but it feels like they're a Potemkin family.

Yep.

That family is hiding something big.

What does the husband do? Supply guns? Run security for companies?

Why were the daughters off in two different states during a pandemic? (I heard they were in Utah and Idaho btw)

What could be so pressing that the husband was working 150 miles away in Denver on Mother's Day?

1) Kids are still able to get together with small groups of friends. There is nothing wrong with going camping.

2) Many college kids opted to stay in their off campus apartments while finishing out there semester online because they signed leases and still have to pay for the apartment anyway. Might as well SIP with their college friends.

3) The husband may have been away on business or he might even been visiting an elderly parent on Mother's Day.

ONE of those is normal on a regular weekend. ALL of them on Mother's Day no less much less during a national viral outbreak is just puzzling.

I agree. Though the family may have arranged to celebrate Mother's Day some other time, it's at least curious. Even moreso that no reports even mention it. I think that elephant merits a seat.

Have a high school friend from Virginia who used to be a smart nice guy. Moved to Colorado and has become a raging jerk who is full of anger. Not sure why--he has a good kid and nice (and good looking) wife. Debating unfriending him on Facebook because he posts tirades all the time.

Not sure what happened. On the outside he appears to have a good life.

👍

My impression of Colorado, from recent events, is that it's where people go to get their veneers done, full-body. :/

I wish this poor woman nothing but a safe return, but why post this on a DC-based forum? I doubt any of us have anything productive to offer.

There are people posting here from all across the country.

Aside from that - insight is universal. Remember when Shanann Watts was murdered and people were saying the husband was acting shifty during his television interview? Turns out - they were exactly right.

You don't have know someone or live in their neighorhood to note human nature.

Utah and Idaho border each other just like Maryland and Virginia do. Maybe the younger daughter was quarantining with her sister in her sister's off campus apartment and went on a camping trip with friends. I don't find that to be an odd scenario at all. The Morphew home is large and beautiful but also quite isolated even with stay at home orders. It would be a hard place for a kid to be stuck for months on end. I can totally see sending the younger girl to quarantine with her older sister in an off campus apartment. They have to pay for the apartment anyway, might as well use it.

From what I've been able to gather, Suzanne may have been riding on a trail when something happened to her. She is a pretty woman who looks younger than her age and she may have been in the wrong place at the wrong time and encountered the wrong person.

*shrug* I'm just saying living in D.C. my kids wouldn't be staying in Virginia and camping in Maryland respectively while my husband was busy working in Philadelphia (the distance from her house to Denver) and I was biking in Rock Creek Park on Mother's Day during a viral outbreak.

That's all.

And we're asking what's his?

He's not a doctor, city/government official, police officer, grocery store manager.

What his business that is run from Denver and why hasn't it been announced on the news? He claims to have been away from home the whole time. Can that be verified? A colleague or parking garage footage showing his car in the area he said it was?

I have two teenagers. One is a 19 year college student (young adult), the other one is a 17 year HS student (kid). I would definitely let the 17 year old go to hang out at the older sibling's off campus apartment. I have allowed them to take road trips together, too. It is not weird to me that the oldest is still in her off campus apartment until the semester ends and it is also not weird to me that the younger daughter may have gone camping with friends. It is also not unusual to me that Suzanne's husband may have been away on business in Denver when she disappeared.

They apparently found her bike near the parking lot at the entrance/exit to a trail. After some searching they have also located some personal items that belonged to Suzanne (not sure what those items are).

To me, this feels like an abduction. Possibly a crime of opportunity.

Okay, so are your children currently on lockdown during a Shelter-In-Place/pandemic or are they off on a road trip together?

Other than the charitable organization, I'm not aware of any other job that Suzanne had. She does have a BA from Purdue University, as does her husband. And I believe that she is a former teacher.

Their lifestyle does seem rather luxurious from what we do know about their sources of income.

There are rumors elsewhere that the younger daughter lives with her boyfriend’s family. Maybe that’s just for coronavirus because she wants to see him and her mom is high risk (2x cancer survivor)... but, if that’s the case, then weird dad would be out-and-about. If the younger (HS age) daughter always lives with her boyfriend’s family, that’s way weirder for a UMC family.

The older daughter is away at college. That’s not weird. Likely just SIP while she finishes online classes.

Things are reopening in this state. My one kid was at work yesterday, the other was at the beach. Which is perfectly fine and allowable in my area. If they wanted to take a road trip in our state I would let them. There are some states that I wouldn't touch right now with a ten foot pole.
