BAM in the Bones: The Forensic Psychology Behind Barry Morphew’s Alleged Murder Plan

Description:
A woman’s bones don’t just tell you how she died—they tell you how someone lived. In this case, how a man may have plotted, planned, and executed control with chilling precision. When Suzanne Morphew’s remains were found in 2023, they contained traces of BAM, a rare veterinary tranquilizer. Not something you pick up at your local pharmacy. But Barry Morphew had access to it—and knew how to use it.

In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down what that single forensic detail tells us about intent, mindset, and method. Why choose a sedative instead of brute force? What does it say when someone selects a method that leaves no visible trauma—but leaves behind a chemical fingerprint?

We explore the psychology of calculated homicide, the difference between impulsive violence and controlled erasure, and how forensic findings align with behavioral patterns. Barry Morphew may not have left blood at the scene, but prosecutors say he left a behavioral blueprint.

This isn’t just about BAM—it’s about what happens when a person believes they can outsmart the science, and how even the most meticulously planned murder leaves a trail if you know where to look.
