It's been two months since Chaffee County woman Suzanne Morphew, 49, went for a bike ride on Mother's Day (May 10) and never returned.

Her disappearance quickly garnered national attention, but as May turned into June, the only "updates" on her case seemed to come from Facebook discussion groups.

However, on Thursday (July 9), the Chaffee County Sheriff's Office announced in a press release that investigators had returned to the Morphew residence to search for more clues.
