Girl, 14, Raped, Found in Camp Pendleton Marine Barracks

Carlee Russell calls 911, telling the operator that she sees a toddler walking down the side of an Alabama freeway. 

When police arrive, there's no toddler and  Russell is gone. Her car, however, is still parked along the highway. The door is open and the car is running. Forty-nine hours later, Russell returns home, telling investigators in a brief interview that she was abducted by a man with orange hair and a woman.  

As the investigation continued, police find some “really strange” internet searches in the hours before she vanished, such as the cutoff age for an AMBER Alert.  

Now Russell admits via a statement from her lawyer that there was no toddler or abduction. 

In a Jefferson County, Ala., circuit court  Russell ordered to pay nearly $18,000 in restitution and  sentenced to 12 months of supervised probation, community service and evidence of continued mental health counseling.   Judge David Carpenter suspended Russell's two six-month sentences, saying jail time would be a "waste of government resources."

Alabama Kidnap Faker Avoids Jail

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/445a1426-2bcb-4890-b887-b16c016baba6/transcript

Suzanne Morphew's death has been ruled a homicide by undetermined means. The toxicology report shows several drugs found in her system at the time of her death: Butorphanol, a synthetic opioid pain-killer, Azaperone, a sedative commonly used as a tranquilizer for pigs and elephants, and medetomidine, a sedative that can decrease an animal's heart rate, commonly used by veterinarians.

According to a 2021 affidavit, Barry Morphew admitted to police that he frequently used BAM and other tranquilizers to sedate deer to remove antlers for his hunting business. However, BAM is the commonly used abbreviation for Butophanol, Azaperaone, and Medetomidine. Azaperone is used as a sedative for Elephants, Rhinoceros, and Giraffes, while Medetomidine facilitates immobilization of large carnivores and great apes.  

Police say in the recovery of Susanne Morphew's body, her favorite tee-shirt was pulled from the location.  And in the past few days, it's reported that husband Barry Morphew quietly slipped into an invite-only memorial for his murdered wife.
