Judge is starting now. He says report came back and we are here for a trial setting.

@FierroNicole
Judge Werner says there's a motion for a second evaluation for the defense but he says he needs to set a date for trail [trial] and he'll deal with the logistics on that.
12:37 PM · Aug 25, 2022
@FierroNicole
Letecia's attorney is asking for the second evaluation before. Judge says since this is a sanity evaluation rather than competency hearing it's different and court rules say after getting sanity evaluation you need to set a trail date immediately.

Judge says defense does not have much obligation to disclose what they are doing but because they requested a second evaluation, judge says he needs to know who it is, whoever does the evaluation has to be paid by the state and be state grade.

@FierroNicole
Defense says they have a right to it, and what they can tell the court is they retained a psychiatrist from out of state and they need to figure out the logistics for it. He says they will not be requesting the state to pay for it.

@FierroNicole
Defense also requested an EEG monitor for 72 hours, but the jail can't do that. Judge can order her to state hospital but doesn't think he has the authority to order the conditions under which she will be housed or evaluated by a second evaluation.
12:45 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Defense's request is that Letecia goes to the state hospital to be monitored on an EEG machine for 72 hours. Her attorney says they will bring their own equipment and staff to the hospital to have it done, they just want to use the location and won't use state hospital staff.
12:49 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Judge says he's not inclined to order this without getting input from CMHIP, state hospital, on this request. He's not questioning his authority to order a second evaluation but he's concerned about the 72 hour portion and bringing in outside equipment/people to CMHIP for it.
12:51 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Judge says other issue you need to look at is the wait time on doing this. There were many months of delays in getting this sanity evaluation. Judge says even if they don't use the CMHIP staff to do these tests, she is still going to be going there.
12:53 PM · Aug 25, 2022
@FierroNicole
Judge set next court date for Sept. 15th at 1:30 pm. He is going to take a closer look at the statute to set a trial date and hopes to get input from CMHIP. There's confusion because of the second evaluation request. Trail date may be delayed until "distribution" of second eval.
12:56 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Defense says the psychiatrist they want to use from out of state is hopeful to have results on a second evaluation within 30 days of conducting it.
12:57 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Judge is explaining to Letecia, saying she already had one sanity evaluation at CMHIP and that her attorney plans to challenge it by selecting someone else to do a second examination. It has to be recorded (video and audio) and it has to be provided to the prosecution.
12:59 PM · Aug 25, 2022·
@FierroNicole
Anything she says during the evaluation can be used by prosecution.

Hearing is over. DA won't be doing interviews.

@FierroNicole
We asked Letecia’s attorney for clarification if the report deemed Letecia sane. He said it is restricted, so he can’t say but the defense is planning to challenge it.

Can’t imagine what Gannon’s biological family is feeling right now. Landen, Gannon’s mom, has to take off work and fly from SC to come to these court appearances. His aunt has to fly here too. Al, Gannon’s Dad, tells me everyone’s support is something that keeps him going.
