On September 2, 2025, Barry Morphew appeared in Alamosa County court seeking a bond reduction. His request was denied, though the judge modified his $3 million bond to allow cash, surety, or property. In this bonus episode, Sara and Andrea break down what happened inside the courtroom, including arguments from the defense and prosecution, and Judge Hopkins’ ruling. They also share powerful words from Suzanne’s brother’s impact letter, reminding us all that at the center of this case is Suzanne, a mother, sister, and friend whose life was stolen. With reporting from The Alamosa Citizen.

In September 2009, 24-year-old Mitrice Richardson vanished after being released alone from the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station in Malibu, California. Eleven months later, her remains were discovered in a rugged canyon less than two miles away.

In Part Two of this case, we trace the painful discovery of Mitrice’s body, disturbing murals found during search efforts, and the mishandling of evidence that left her family with more questions than answers. Through the voices of her mother Latice Sutton, Dr. Ronda Hampton, and independent journalist Cece Woods, this episode examines how critical mistakes and conflicting accounts deepened the mystery — and fueled a public outcry that has never gone silent.

On a September evening in 2009, 24-year-old Mitrice Richardson walked into a Malibu restaurant. She wasn’t quite herself, and by the end of the night staff had called the sheriff’s department—not just because she couldn’t pay her bill, but because they were worried about her safety.

Hours later, Mitrice was released from the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station, just after midnight, alone and without her phone, purse, or car. She was never seen alive again.

In Part 1 of this two-part case, we retrace Mitrice’s final known hours—from the restaurant call that first brought deputies to Geoffrey’s, to her unexpected release into the dark Malibu canyon night. What happened in the hours that followed has never been fully explained.

Mitrice Richardson was vibrant, ambitious, and deeply loved. This is her story.

In this final installment of our coverage on the case of Zebb Quinn, we follow the investigation as it takes a shocking turn. Nearly fifteen years after Zebb vanished, the name Jason Owens reemerged—this time tied to the brutal murders of Cristie and J.T. Codd and their unborn child.

As investigators dug into Owens’ property, they uncovered disturbing evidence: concrete pits, lime, and fragments that raised chilling questions. Was this connected to Zebb? And if so, why has the truth remained buried for so long?

Through court records, news reports, and eyewitness accounts, we trace how Owens’ crimes cast new suspicion on his role in Zebb’s disappearance—and why answers in this case have remained just out of reach.

Zebb Quinn was only 18 years old when he disappeared from Asheville, North Carolina, in January 2000. His story is one of mystery, grief, and the relentless search for justice.

If you know anything about the disappearance and murder of Zebb Wayne Quinn, please contact the Asheville Police Department at (828) 252-1110 or your local law enforcement office.

Two weeks after 18-year-old Zebb Quinn vanished, his car was found in a BBQ restaurant parking lot with a live puppy, a hotel keycard, and lipstick scrawled across the back window. In Part Two of this case, we follow the strange trail from a mysterious page traced to his aunt’s phone, through a tangled connection to a young woman named Misty Taylor and her abusive boyfriend, to Jason Owens—the last person seen with Zebb. For years, Owens stayed in the shadows… until 2015, when another disappearance rocked the quiet town of Leicester. This time, it wasn’t just one person missing—it was Cristie and JT Codd, a young couple expecting their first child. And the discovery police made would be unlike anything they’d seen before.

It’s January 2nd, 2000—just two days into the new millennium—when 18-year-old Zebb Quinn clocks out of his Walmart shift in Asheville, North Carolina, and vanishes. He was last seen heading off to look at a used car with an older friend and former coworker, Jason Owens. What happens next is a cascade of bizarre clues: a frantic phone call, a staged car scene, a lipstick mark on the window, and a puppy left behind.

In Part 1 of this three-part case, we introduce you to Zebb—kind, consistent, and still finding his way in the world. We unravel the early days of the investigation, the shifting story from Jason Owens, and the mysterious presence of a woman named Misty Taylor. Through news clips, archival reporting, and family accounts, we trace the haunting disappearance that left a mother searching and a community stunned.

This is a story of red herrings, long shadows—and a boy who never should’ve gone missing.

Zebb Wayne Quinn was just 18. And he never came home.

After years of questions, one thing changed everything: Suzanne Morphew was found.

In this gripping final installment, we follow the chilling discovery of Suzanne’s remains in a shallow grave in Saguache County—and the forensic secrets her bones still carried. From the animal tranquilizer in her system to the evidence that she was moved postmortem, new revelations sparked a second indictment against her husband, Barry Morphew.

We take you inside the 2025 arrest, the courtroom where we watched justice take a new shape, and the story that now has a body… and a voice.

This is how Suzanne’s case ends—for now.

And why it still matters.
