Police consider husband of Tulsa mom as person of interest in her disappearance, arrested for unrelated crimes

TULSA, Okla. — Tulsa Police said they now suspect foul play in the disappearance of 39-year old Cassidy Ritchie and are now considering her husband of less than a month as a person of interest.

Ritchie, a Tulsa mom, has not been heard from since Sunday.

Lt. Brandon Watkins with TPD said they have been questioning Ritchie’s husband of less than a month, Chris Morland, who is now being considered as a person of interest in her disappearance.

“He’s obviously someone who could help us but so far we’re not getting the answers we need,” Watkins said.

He said Morland was actually arrested on Thursday on some warrants for extradition to Texas on a separate matter, so he is in custody right now.

“We would like to find Cassidy, find out that she’s either OK,” Watkins said, “and maybe somewhere hiding, or we’d like to get some information on where she might be.’”

Ritchie’s car, a light blue 2006 Chrysler Pacifica, Creek Tag #J1L90 , was located way out east past Catoosa by the I Don’t Care Bar and Grill with extensive off-road debris on it.
