Her brother called it in September.

"I'm afraid this is domestic abuse," shared Moorman.

I am curious what the evidence they found was and why it took so long to arrest the fool.

Too soon?

How many of these have we had over the past few years?

[clodhopper]

too many.

Not always. Out side of serial killers.

Women have racked up an impressive total, too.


Mostly their kids.

The guy stayed free for a year since he (likely) killed his wife. That was a gift he better enjoy for the rest of his life.

Why any of these people think they'll get away with this is beyond me. Divorce is expensive a hell, but it's cheaper than legal fees for a murder defense & you actually get your freedom afterwards.

Christopher Watts, Patrick Frazee, Donthe Lucas, and now Barry Morphew. I'm looking forward to retiring to a small Florida drinking village, with a fishing problem...

They probably wanted to make sure they had a tight case before arresting him. It's one thing to 'know' and another to 'prove' to the average jury.

DA prosecuting the case

People v. Linda Stanley. 18PDJ058. May 16, 2019.

The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved the parties' conditional admission of misconduct
and publicly censured Linda Stanley (attorney registration number 45298), effective May 16,
2019.

In February 2017, Stanley agreed to represent a client in a civil case. Eight days after she
executed the engagement letter, Stanley accepted employment as a hearing officer for the
Colorado Department of Revenue. She began working for the state ten days thereafter. But
Stanley did not advise the client that she left private practice. Instead, Stanley sent the client
a past-due invoice, assessing late fees. When the client learned of Stanley's new position in
April 2017 from a third-party, the client asked Stanley about her new employ. Stanley merely
replied that the client owed fees and stated that she would find substitute counsel. When
the client had not paid the invoice by April 30, Stanley threatened to send his account to
collections and told the client that she could not in good faith refer his case to another
lawyer.

In June 2017, Stanley's client expressed concerns to the court about Stanley's
representation. By this time, a three-day jury trial had been set in the case. The next month,
Stanley attempted to withdraw from the client's case but her filing was rejected due to
errors in the caption and an improper form. She tried that same month to file another
motion to withdraw, but that motion too was rejected, this time because she had filed it in
the wrong court. She did not successfully file a motion to withdraw until August 2017.

As of August 2017, Stanley had not given the client actual notice of her intent to withdraw.
The client filed a pro se motion to terminate her representation, and the court set a hearing
on the motion for October 2, 2017. Stanley failed to appear, however, so the court ordered
her to personally appear at a hearing set for late October 2017. Before that hearing, Stanley
filed a response to the court's order, in which she revealed numerous client confidences.

Three days before the hearing, the court considered Stanley's response and granted her
motion to withdraw.

Through her conduct, Stanley violated Colo. RPC 1.3 (a lawyer shall act with reasonable
diligence and promptness when representing a client); Colo. RPC 1.4(a)(3) (a lawyer shall
keep a client reasonably informed about the status of the matter); Colo. RPC 1.6(a) (a lawyer
shall not reveal information relating to the representation of a client unless the client gives
informed consent); Colo. RPC 1.16(d) (a lawyer shall protect a client's interests upon
termination of the representation, including by giving reasonable notice to the client).

The case file is public per C.R.C.P. 251.31.
