Suzanne Morphew, a Colorado mother who went missing in 2020 and whose remains were found in September, died by homicide, according to an autopsy report.
The report was released Monday by the El Paso County coroner and stated that Morphew's cause of death was homicide "by unspecified means in the setting of butorphanol, azaperone, and medetomidine intoxication."
The document described the drugs as marketed for wildlife, as painkillers, a sedative and an immobilizer.
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation said it was aware of the autopsy report, and that it had been shared with the Morphew family as soon as the coroner had received it.
