Stalked, Drugged & Murdered – How did Morgan really die?

I will now start to post some of the ugliness that I previously had not wanted to post.  None of us really want to see or hear about true life horrors in this world, but holding back some of this stuff up until now has only served to confuse people about what happened to Morgan.  Morgan was stalked and Morgan was murdered.  Why the sheriff has made such a huge effort to ignore key facts about Morgan’s stalking and Morgan’s murder is beyond me, because if he doesn’t already know what the true facts are, then he should find out.  That is his job.  Maybe someday the world will illuminate the answer to that question, but in the meantime I want to make sure people do know the truth – even though it is very ugly, and even though as a mother this makes me sick to my stomach.

The following picture is a copy of the Sexual Assault Drug Panel from AIT Labs.  AIT Labs is the laboratory that produced Morgan’s toxicology results from her autopsy.  Morgan was killed by a massive dose of Amitriptyline (a date rape drug), 7,909 ng/ml to be exact. Forensic doctors and toxicologists have assured me that less than 1,000 ng/ml would have killed Morgan, they want to know how she could have 7,909/ml ng in her bloodstream?  Good question – right?  She had 8 times the amount that would have killed her.  But it’s actually worse than that, doctors add together Amitriptyline and Nortriptyline for a total lethal amount. In Morgan’s case that is way over 10,000 ng/ml.  Way over ten times the lethal dose.  We believe she was overcome while asleep with chloroform and then injected with equine Amitriptyline that was meant for use on a horse, 1,000 lbs and up, over ten times Morgan’s weight.  Morgan never took anti-depressants, easily established from her pharmacy and doctors records.  Why would the sheriff say that she did?  Why would the sheriff ignore our efforts to correct this huge mistake? It’s a lie in a capital case.

Another important thing to note is the percentage of Amitriptyline to Nortriptyline (which can be a naturally occurring synthesis of Amitriptyline) clearly establishes that this fatal dose was a one time event.  We told the Sheriff she was not taking it and the lab results indicate she was not taking it.  Why do they have to cling to their misstatement?

Then we have results of a later test run by AIT Labs on her gastric fluid – this is extremely revealing as all the drugs found in her gastric fluid are circled and highlighted on the photo below – all seven of them.  And ALL are on the sexual assault panel at AIT Labs.  These are not drugs that any young woman would give herself, in fact one of the drugs is not even sold anymore in the US, except for horses.  No attempt was ever made to explain how Morgan got all these drugs into her system.  They were not drugs that Morgan had ever taken in her life, except a low dose of Amitriptyline for nerve pain when she was younger.  Morgan had no alcohol or illegal drugs in her system, but she had all of the following drugs in her gastric fluid – and then it only gets more telling… 5 of them had not gone into her bloodstream, so that means they were put into her stomach after it had stopped absorbing.  How is that even possible?  Morgan was most likely dead when these drugs were put into her stomach!  Never an attempt to explain how this could have happened either.  No wonder the sheriff will never investigate her murder.

Here is a copy of the Sexual Assault Drug Panel from AIT Labs – the highlighted drugs were in Morgan’s toxicology results found in her gastric fluid.

sexual assault panel highlighted page 1sexual assault panel highlighted page 2So what does this all mean?  It is proof, proof without a doubt that Morgan was murdered at the hands of someone else.  The pictures of Morgan’s crime scene show a horrible struggle took place – she fought.  She had blood on her forehead, blood on her pillow case, a swollen lip with blood, her hair was a tangled mess, clothes strewn everywhere, the vacuum knocked over, cell phone across the room under a door, her panic button ripped off the nightstand and in the corner of the room on the floor, abrasions on her body and much more.

At this point do you think an investigator could look her mother in the eye and say, “Absolutely no connection to the stalker here.”  The stalker that was on the roof?  The stalker that bent the gutter right over her window until it broke?  The stalker Morgan identified to the sheriff?  Well the investigator absolutely did claim there could be no connection to the stalker within minutes of his arrival on the scene the very morning we found her body.  That is not an investigation, no wonder the sheriff says he will never open one.

So the bottom line here is that I am sick and tired of some people acting like Morgan committed suicide, because she did not. I was threatened to back off from trying to have her manner of death, that was listed as “natural causes” from a disease she did not have, changed to at least “undetermined” in order to have an investigation launched.  I reported the threat, it is even in the sheriffs own report.  After 8 months they changed the manner of death just as they had threatened to do.  Sheriffs believe they can do anything.  This whole thing is so obvious not only to me, and to so many others, but the real question is what will it take for the State of Colorado to correct this injustice and do a real investigation, and see where that takes them?  A stalker(s) / murderer(s) is still free on the streets.  There are currently over 1,600 cold cases in Colorado, and Morgan’s case isn’t even one of them yet, so what is the real number?

I guarantee you Colorado – people like this do not stop – he will do this again if you allow this injustice to remain!

  1. It is beyond disgusting and disturbing how someone with authority would allow this to continue! It’s been long enough, pull your head out and do something, this makes me angry, how can you just sit there?! It should infuriate you, that some so called human (s) are still living within your community that you are supposedly protecting. I hope this haunts you for the rest of your life, each of you that looked the other way, you should know… you will get your own. You have the power to change that. It’s not to late to do something, anything. I question your character, integrity, your morals an ethics… how could you?!

  2. I Feel like you are getting closer to justice Toni. Don’t ever give up the fight. Everytime I see you post I pray it will be an update that the case has been reopened.

    • Heather I promise I will never give up the fight. If I did give up then I would be no better than all the other people that know what really happened and won’t step up or get involved…it is criminal.

  3. That horse thing. All the worst ones in our case are heavily involved in horses they cannot afford on their official salary. I believe it is one of the perks of a gang stalker.

    • Maybe you missed the posts in this blog, but new facts are constantly coming in. The “crime scene” photos I refer to were sent to us approximately 2 years after her murder – they show evidence of foul play. Crime scene 101.

  4. Hi Toni. I’ve followed your blog from the beginning but have only posted once before. I’m sorry for the hell you’re going through. All you are asking for is justice… just a chance for justice really. Please know it is obvious even to outsiders that this is not an unreasonable request! I can’t imagine your position. Empatheticly I feel like you’ve gone from ‘please save her’ to ‘she can’t be gone’ to ‘don’t let her die in vain’ to ‘ how can we prevent this from happening to someone else’. All the while those who could do something about are too heartless or embarrassed with their prior failures to do anything about it. The system is (please excuse me) f’d. As I read the details of the crime scene photos, etc it concerns me that divulged information could jeopardize the future case. I am in no place to offer advice but it’s no one’s business to know the details unless it helps your cause. Obviously you’ve been forced to play the long game. Don’t be deterred. Love always prevails. My most sincere condolences to you and your family. I can’t wait for the day that the right person in the right place reads the facts and decides to do the right thing.

    • Thank you so much for your comment. Your kind words really do help.

      It has been hard not to reveal too much and at the same time to reveal enough to not only let people know the truth, but to also help other possible victims as well as other law enforcement officers that face these tough crimes. There is a lot more to the crime scene photos as well as physical and circumstantial evidence that we know, but I have not written about or told anyone except law enforcement so I hope that I have not jeopardized the case.

      Without letting the truth come out there would never be a case – the truth is being withheld from the public. I have always believed some people want to stay in the grey areas but I see things as black and white…true or untrue no in-between especially when it comes to innocent people being victimized. So like you I can’t wait for the day the right person in the right place reads the facts and decides to do the right thing – in the meantime I will never stop giving them the facts. 🙂

      • I’m so sorry if my comment above seemed judgemental. That was not my intention. I meant to be encouraging. I do not feel you have hurt the case in any way. You’ve only strengthened it through facts and perseverance. I guess what I was trying to say is we’re all behind you 100%, no further evidence needed for that. You’re right, it is black and white. Heinous crimes were committed and you deserve justice for your beautiful daughter. Sending only positive vibes your way.

  5. I recently watched your Dr Phil episode, and it really came across like you were stopped from saying certain information, which lead me here. I’m so sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter, the fact this has all happened isn’t allowing you or your family to grieve and thats down to the poilce dept, they have a lot to awnser for. It’s terrible your having to fight and fight for justice and I can only imagine your frustration and pain. I never write comments but something about your daughters story really touched me x sending you and your family all my thoughts x again im so sorry for your loss

    • Thank you so much Charlotte for writing in to me with your thoughts. Yes, I was definitely stopped from saying important things on the Dr. Phil show – it was frustrating but in the long run it wasn’t the end of the world because so many people, just like you, have written in to me and they really did see the deceit going on with Brooke and her dad. It has now been 3 years since our daughters death and in those 3 years we have learned so much and we believe very shortly now things will be changing. Morgan will receive justice and even though the pain of her loss will always be with us I firmly believe once indictments are made and the truth is finally out for all to see there will be big changes made for not only future victims of stalking but the way cold case homicides are viewed, communication between law enforcement and victims, and education for not only victims but for law enforcement as well. There needs to be better tools for everyone to have access to. The main focus should always be on protecting and serving for law enforcement and it usually is but not all agencies have had the training to know what tools are accessible. And for victims, no one tells them where they can go or what they can do if their local law enforcement isn’t taking their situation seriously.

      So much needs to change but when people speak out and push for what is right that’s when big changes are made. I am grateful to be part of trying to make those changes even though I wish I could be doing it and still enjoying life with Morgan at the same time. She did not deserve what happened to her – no one deserves what happened to her. This will never be okay and Steve and I will never stop fighting for justice. Hugs!

      • Im glad your still fighting, it’s been 3 years and people are still hearing of or learning of her story today, im proof of that.. I came across that dr phil by accident and couldn’t stop watching. Having recently had a daughter myself I can’t begin to imagine the horror of this all. I really hope you get justice x

        • Thank you so very much Charlotte. Congratulations on your little baby girl. Children are our most precious presents. Once you look into their eyes you know you will never stop loving them. Take care.

I welcome your feelings and ideas on Morgan's Stalking
