The defense also played body camera footage that showed Chaffee County sheriff’s deputies stating that they didn’t believe a tranquilizer dart gun found in Morphew’s gun safe functioned. Under questioning by defense attorney Nielsen, retired FBI Agent Jonathan Grusing said that multiple dogs trained to detect decomposing bodies did not alert to such evidence in Barry Morphew’s truck. The duo of defense attorneys elicited testimony from investigators that did not support the prosecution’s theory of the alleged crime. Cahill said the forensic scientist described the glovebox DNA as “limited genetic data.” Prosecutors tried to downplay the validity of the DNA matches while cross-examining Cahill, the CBI agent. Murphy sealed the affidavit citing Morphew’s right to a fair trial and the need to protect the Morphews’ two daughters. The 130-page arrest affidavit detailing the case against Morphew remained sealed Tuesday, though the judge will decide Sept.
