I just can't imagine that a man would murder his wife of 26 years, the mother of his children, in such a cold and calculating way, because of her desire to divorce him. Just imagine the horror of him darting his wife with a tranquillizer gun, and then chasing her down while she flees...horrible to think of. Assuming he did it, and unless he is a sociopath, I imagine his guilt over the enormity of his crime will eventually lead to him taking his own life sometime in the future. Just my opinion.
RSBM It wasn't Barry's choice, God was saving Suzanne from her self and a life of drinking, drugs and affairs. (only 3 examples, there are lots more)
From the AA page 59
“I truly believe that her disappearance
was out of anyone's hands but God's. And
God allowed that to happen for some reason and we might never know until we get to heaven."
….. and said that maybe Suzanne's
disappearance was a form of God's judgment for the affair.”

He added, "I'm telling ya, I had no idea of this until today. But, looking at everything right now, things are making a little bit more sense to me from God's point of view because I would never understand
why God could take away my wife after I fought two battles of cancer with her, had two miracle babies that we shouldn't have had, and had a wonderful life together."

Barry said, "I tell you what. I've had a very hard time understanding
why God did this. And he allowed it.”
Just started reading the AA.

Right away I say an instance when LE overstated the facts:
I assume Barry's abuse of Suzanne is clearly stated later on, If not, it's just an accusation with no evidence.
All the steps by Suzanne to divorce Barry were in the early stages , largely complaining to friends about their relationship and gathering evidence by secretly recoding BM. But she never met with an attorney, which I assume she would have done if she was prepared to move forward.
RSBM.. Overstated? Facts are facts, don't see how they can be overstated. Sincerely asking...How?
It has been accepted that Suzanne didn't speak to anyone of the affair, not her sister or best friends. She held some things close to the vest, so who's to say whether she consulted a lawyer?
Early stages? She had been obviously weighing things out for years before.That is one of the reasons for the move to Colorado , a fresh start. Shortly thereafter she initiated an affair. That had been running for a year and a half. She was clearly trying to wait for the youngest to finish high school. But she was well in the later stages,mentally she was 100% done! She had been busy developing a second career as a fitness coach to sustain herself financially as a divorcee, while fighting her second bout of cancer. The only thing left to do was walk out and she was on her way, Barry knew it.
ETA...a Biggie... Suzanne had told Sheila she may get part of her money in January. It seems Barry did agree to give her some if not all (to repay her inheritance money that was used for Puma Path.) The Indiana property was about a month away from settling. I do believe that is why she finally felt free to be looking at other properties,
one foot was out the door.
