5/19/20 Update: The Court GRANTS Stauch’s Motion to Continue Preliminary Hearing. While the Proof Evident Presumption Great & Preliminary Hearing are VACATED, the June 5, 2020 9:00 a.m. appearance date WILL REMAIN ON THE DOCKET and this matter will proceed to a status conference to determine the best method for proceeding forward in light of current conditions (COVID-19). No decision on motion concerning bond. Stauch's attorneys were told that if they wished to proceed with the other motion (the one alleging lack of access to Stauch and suggesting bond as a possible solution), they must be ready to present evidence at the status conference. COVID-19 court procedures: Only 12 people will be allowed inside the courtroom during the status conference, and only one of those will be a pool reporter for all four of our local stations. Others will be in the jury room watching on a livestream. Advisement hearing added for 6/4/20. Divorce: Setting hearing on 6/18.
6/4/20 Update: A new case #2020CR3170 - Solicitation to Commit Escape has been filed. The matter will be taken up at the 6/5 status conference. According to the affidavit, Stauch is classified as “Segregation from All,” meaning she will not be moved around jail with other inmates. Stauch is also classified as a full restraint escape risk, meaning she will not be transported outside of the facility without full restraints being placed on her wrists and ankles and her wrists will be secured to a belt around her waist. Escape: Advisement hearing on 6/5/20. And status hearing on Gannon’s murder on 6/5/20 both at 9am.
