Found Deceased CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 **ARREST** #34

[oviedo]

I have no idea, but I think we have a couple lawyers that post here that might know! I think @oviedo is one? Forgive me if I'm wrong.

Either way, it makes me happy knowing that she knew deep down that they were looking at her. People don't have their passports taken away for no reason at all. I hope she was shaking in fear when she was by herself at night, remembering all the awful things that she did and said, knowing that her day of reckoning is coming.

Not a lawyer - paralegal and I work with the lawyers but @gitana1 @riolove77 and one more are all attorneys

So
Lots of info from LS interview sources.
Can someone tell me that this is the itinetary she asserts for 1/27:

Mandan Dr.
to N. Nevada Petco

N. Nevada Petco
to Castle Rock Play it Again

Castle Rock Play it Again
to N. Nevada Petco

N.Nevada Petco
To Mandan Dr.

I was assuming she meant the Petco just 8 minutes north of Play it Again Sports in Castle Rock.

LS was pretty young when she had her daughter, 19-20 years old. By all accounts, HH is quite independent and well on her way to becoming an self-sufficient young adult.

I imagine LS felt that she was basically done parenting and ready to get back to living only for herself. This would only exacerbate her resentment, being a primary caregiver for two young children who were not her own.

So why would she marry Al knowing of his children and military career? Why would she help him win custody?

Because she lacks self-awareness and she's impulsive. She obviously doesn't think out long-term consequences and enjoys winning, especially when it's a "victory" against her biggest rival. She wanted another "win" against LH and to be the hero stepmom who stood up to take care of these children.

The reality that she'd very often be the solo caretaker of these children for many years didn't sink in until it actually happened.

Consider this, from her former coworker who vacationed with them:



https://www.myrtlebeachonline.com/news/local/crime/article240819176.html

That's why she fought the custody battles alongside Al. To maintain her idea of herself as the ever self-sacrificing family hero.

Oh yes...

"To maintain her idea of herself as the ever self-sacrificing family hero."

 

[NCWatcher]

I doubt it. Albert said he wasn't going to give her any.

Don't blame AS at all. But I'd think that issue would have to be adjudicated. A spouse saying "I'm not going to pay spousal support" isn't enough.

Yep - well done !

 

[MsBetsy]

I would even venture to guess that anything they own together will be signed over to him.

Yeah, I'm not really sure how it works when you murder your husband's child.

 

[Warwick7]

45 minutes home to Petco
45 minutes Petco to Castlerock.
Minumum 10 minute visits to Petco each time
45 minutes Castlerock back to Petco.
45 minutes Petco back to home.

Did she kill Gannon before she went to Petco first visit?
Did she kill himbetween Petco and Castlerock?
Did he kill him on way back from Castlerock to Petco or
Did she kill him between Petco and home on return journey?

I'm not subscribing to the theory he died naturally in the truck all by himself and her only task was to dispose of his body.

Am mathematically challenged.
Did she visit Petco at all?

Police took a white car n January 31, day of tV interview.

Did a car swap take place in or around Petco on that day?
Is that the reason LE took the white car, if it was white?

It really looks like she had very little time to kill and dispose of him if above times are accurate?

Are there considerably shorter routes she could have taken?
Even if so, she still had a very tight time frame in which to kill him.

"Did she visit Petco at all?"

She told us herself in this phone interview that she did.

 

[stattlich1]

some local people told me 30-45 minutes her home to Petco but stated 45 Petco to Castlerock.. I wish somebody better than I, almost anybody, could do the math on this.. Had she 5 minutes to kill and dispose of him or had she 30 minutes? It matters for a search.
It's really confusing.
Again these are her words and we know she lies. BUT assuming she did make the two visits to Petco, I happened to see the original times, first was 11, second after 1pm.. but again Tee's words..
It can be done, we can factor in the stop duration to kill/dispose of him ...

I just checked it on google maps. I rounded up a couple minutes, it's 35 minutes to that petco and then another 45 to Castle Rock. That'd be 2 hours and 40 minutes drive time. That's an hour and 20 minutes left to do the deed. Not much time eh?

 

[Warwick7]

Listened to TS phone recorded call with unidentified woman and the irony of TS trying to justify the removal of the LH children because of birth mom's choice of alleged unsuitable mate(s) with repeated arrests was too much!

During this call, I think TS really thought her alibi was foolproof and that she indeed fooled LE.

The explanation for Petco having to do with traveling towards Douglas County to buy a bike for AS and how she was headed "Play it again sports" sounded very reactionary to me -- I don't think she expected that question. I also think TS tried to recover here by saying she gave this nugget of info to LE since she did not have her phone on the trip for GPS/ping at Petco.

I did not hear the question or TS response to why she did not take her phone with her on Monday when she left the house to travel to Douglas County.

MOO

Seattle, good catch on the "sounded very reactionary to me -- I don't think she expected that question"...

As I was listening I wondered the same thing.

Wrong model in the pic- she rented a sedan. Which is typical in a vin search.

 

[Warwick7]

I know she did,listened twice.
ETa got myself 2 headaches to prove it
I truly do have a physical response to her.

Ramblings gave me a migraine!

add 10 minutes visits to each store she allegedly visited...if she visited any.. gives us about an hour to spare?
Thanks for doing that Statt.
Brain freeze.. I thought it was much tighter..
not gonna help much, is it?
Damnit!

 

[Kismet7]

She’s got 3 hots and a cot. How much support does she need?

Of course. I wasn't suggesting he should be at all indebted to her, but I wasn't sure if he legally could be forced to provide her with any support now, during, or after the divorce. I know he said he wasn't offering any in the filing, but legalities aren't always what we think should happen. I mostly was asking if others had witnessed how this plays out in other cases or if a lawyer knew legally how it works. Could AS be legally required to provide her money for a defense(if she didn't want a PD) or for commissary? I certainly hope not, but again sometimes legalities make no sense.

 

[Warwick7]

I regret even listening to that dribble. I thought I should give a certain Youtuber another chance to prove themselves. NOPE. Realized why I stopped paying them any attention with another case.
MOO

I know.......

But there are so many nuggets in this interview.

 

[MsBetsy]

"Did she visit Petco at all?"

She told us herself in this phone interview that she did.

Yeah, but then again, she lies.
I'm not sure if she ever clarified if she actually went back again later or what she bought. She was very vague about the whole thing. It does seem like a lot of driving around to have time to murder someone and dispose of a body, especially if she also went to the sports store to look for a bike and hockey equipment.

Don't blame AS at all. But I'd think that issue would have to be adjudicated. A spouse saying "I'm not going to pay spousal support" isn't enough.

I think her killing his child would be more than enough.

 

[zencompass]

The neighbor directly across the street has a ring camera, nothing has been mentioned in the media, so we don't know for certain if there is footage. But like you, I bet we'll see more evidence (including Sunday night) that cooks her goose, when the PC affidavits are published.

Dear Knox,

Great post!

Thanks for reminding me of the neighbor's ring camera which is across the street.

I absolutely agree that there will be an astounding amount of evidence when the affidavits are revealed.

 

[M-pathetic]

The neighbor of Colorado boy Gannon Stauch, who recorded footage of the child leaving home with his stepmother the day he disappeared, says that he gave the correct dates of the videos, despite the stepmother’s insistence that he may not have.

<snip>

CrimeOnline spoke with Drayton regarding the date of the security footage. Drayton said he not only was he absolutely sure that Stauch left with Gannon on January 27 and returned home alone, but the video footage was given to the FBI with the dates and time stamps attached.

Drayton then provided CrimeOnline with security footage taken on Sunday, January 26.

“I was looking back and I saw them, and they were outside Sunday playing. It was before Monday,” Drayton said. “She backed up and said, ‘Gannon you get on this side, Laina you get on the other side,’ because I could hear what they were saying. My camera picks up sound and everything. I got them coming. I got him getting out of the car Sunday and running to the house. He was perfectly fine.”

Drayton said the following morning, however, Gannon could barely walk.

Drayton added that there is a lot more footage that has not been shown publicly, that was handed over to authorities.

“Nobody offered me any money. I didn’t release the tapes. News media released it. They were told not to but they released it…I guess she didn’t realize that I had a camera, but the FBI came and recorded [the footage] I guess from Saturday until that whole week. So they know everything she done from that Saturday until that following Saturday.”

We knew this. We KNEW LE was all over the video footage. But OH HOW BEAUTIFUL to see it (through blinding tears) quoted. HALLELUJAH!​

 

[kittythehare]

Ramblings gave me a migraine!

Even the very first interview, the TV interview repelled me and I experienced it physically. I've never had such a strong reaction to anybody... it's a bit weird..for me.

Legally she hasn't done that. Innocent until proven guilty and all that.
