Coronavirus may be consuming everyone's attention, but the disappearance of 11-year-old Gannon Stauch still remains unsolved. Support for Gannon and his family continues in many ways, including the following moment at the State Capitol last week.

Last Monday, State Rep. Lois Landgraf made a brief presentation to fellow legislators in Denver about the Gannon Stauch case. She noted that many members of the El Paso County contingent were wearing blue in honor of Gannon. She then explained Gannon’s story and the reason for the blue, quoting a statement from Pastor Paul Aragon of Restoration Church in Fountain:
“A little less than six weeks ago, many people in the Fountain Valley started wearing blue … because it was Gannon Stauch’s favorite color and we wanted to show that we cared about him and wanted him to come home safely. Now, throughout the Fountain Valley, El Paso County and literally all over the country, we are wearing blue and lighting blue lights in honor of a precious young life lost, and in hopes that it brings some amount of comfort to his family to know they do not mourn alone.”
“I ask that you continue to pray that his body is found,” Landgraf said, explaining that Gannon’s stepmother, Letecia Stauch, was currently in jail on charges of murder and abuse. “Hopefully she’ll stay there for a long, long time.”
Blue ribbons were distributed to legislators in attendance, and Landgraf requested that they be worn for the remainder of the week.
You can view the remarks on the Colorado Channel on YouTube, at the 20-minute mark :

Fountain Ditch images.

This old irrigation ditch runs from Lorson Ranch down to Fountain. Parallels Jimmy Camp Creek. View attachment 239026 View attachment 239022

What is more interesting is the part of Fountain Ditch, just north of Squirrel Creek Road. View attachment 239023

When I go back and read, I can post the link as long as I won’t make the mods mad.
no worries, I am sure it is probably for both.
I was just concerned living so close to a State prison.
Not to say that I am not concerned with local city jail.

I would like to see them make TS wear a blue prison outfit. Drive her crazy!

Will prosecutors seek death penalty in this case? People that do these things need to be removed from society at a much faster pace.

Okay, last time. Horry County, South Caroline. Case no. 73435FAHUNLET

Offense code 2671. Misdemeanor Domestic Violence. Charged not convicted.

I do not know the date of the DV event for which she was arrested, only that on Nov 19, 2010 it was disposed by the court. AFAIK, SC did not have mandatory DV appearances by LE at that time, but I could be wrong.

I doubt she went to a police station and turned herself in. Rather, I imagine that someone called LE to the house and LS was arrested, but that others decided not to testify (very common).

I'm using one of the background check programs that we use to....check teachers' backgrounds.
It’s enough for me. How many people do you know personally who are even charged with domestic violence? I hope to never know any.

Marksheffel rd. That is the big one that goes kind of behind their neighborhood and past the church. It's used quite a bit, especially to get to peterson afb and goes from fountain CO to northern Colorado springs. But there are few stop lights on the south end ( around Fountain) so more opportunity for privacy.

I live about 2 miles from the church.
Gannon is my hero!
So you probably did see all the activity and searches. Do you remember seeing much activity , in this area?
Well, if you are 2 miles in opposite direction, you would have missed it...
all our px are warm weather shots, with snow, would the mounds and pipe be visible?
Just your opinion, plz...does local news post areas that have been searched? I have hard time visualizing, but based on your general knowledge of area, do you think this is good area to focus on?
Justice for Gannon!

Can a drone see through the brush?

Call it in. It may be the tip that brings Gannon home.

I applaud your efforts. ((hug))

While we're waiting for the AA and the search warrants (they're two separate entities... thanks, @MassGuy !) ; anyone want to take a guess as to what they found or had search warrants for ?

As far as the search warrants :
  • TS' phone.
  • Gannon's phone if she didn't destroy it.
  • HH's phone (I have some theories but they can wait).
  • Red extended cab pickup truck.
  • HH's car.
  • TS' car (assuming TS had her own car although not much has been said about it).
  • Any rental vehicles.
  • The GPS info. on all of the vehicles.
  • Computers, tablets, and any other electronics belonging to both TS and HH.
  • The contents of the house.
  • AS and TS' ring camera -- even if TS avoided it, was there any activity on it from Sat- Mon. ?

Not included in the search warrants but maybe in the AA -- Witness testimony from the other minors in the house, friends Gannon may have talked to, and teachers in his school ?

I took a look at these links, but a warrant isn't needed for a witness to testify voluntarily to investigators before a trial, correct ?

Court documents detail charges, witness list in Letecia Stauch case; authorities still searching for Gannon - KRDO

".....The complaint also lists several hundred witnesses, including dozens of law enforcement members, including several from the Federal Bureau of Investigation based in Colorado and South Carolina, where Stauch was arrested.
The witness list also includes Stauch's daughter, and both Gannon's biological parents, Landon Hiott and Al Stauch...."


TIMELINE: From Gannon's disappearance to an arrest
"...During the March 2 news conference, news media was told that the arrest affidavit has been sealed to protect the criminal investigation..."


Media seeks to unseal arrest affidavit in Gannon Stauch murder case | The Wire
"...A motion filed by media attorney Steve Zansberg notes that Stauch’s lawyer opposes the unsealing of the probable cause affidavit, but the district attorney’s office does not..."


My opinion is that the D.A.'s office would supersede the media attorney ?


Gannon Stauch case: More than 107 search warrants filed in Gannon Stauch case

"...A group of news organizations, including the Denver Post, have asked Werner to make that affidavit public. He did not rule on that motion during Wednesday’s hearing and is expected to address the issue later.
Allen said the prosecution does not object to making the affidavit public at this point, because he does not believe releasing the document will compromise the investigation...."


Colorado Springs neighbors want to name street after 11-year-old Gannon Stauch
:)
Hopefully this answers one of your questions:



Dwight Falkofske, is on the witness list. He is considered an expert witness.

Dwight is an FBI Contractor, out of Washington, DC. He is with Booze Allen and Hamilton, Inc., Operational Technology Division, Electronic Device Analysis Unit, in the area of Electronic Device Analysis, focusing on Automotive Forensic Data Extraction.


If you get a moment you can read here one instance of Dwight’s testimony in another case. If you have more time on your hands you can go down that one rabbit hole.


This is from the US District Court of South Carolina. Florence Division regarding Crim. No. 4:17-CR-00866-RBH.

I'm shocked. That sounds really risky to have a system giving someone access to children for up to possibly three years before the complete background check is completed. Yikes!
Google "passing the trash"....I've learned too much having four kids in public s chools. I homes homeschool and will never again trust strangers with my kids. I alwAys said I'd never homeschool but surprise! We lovelovelove it!

Why?
He was saying it wouldn't show up on that specific website.

I have no idea why the state is reporting the crimes of a minor at all, but they are; and they are reporting misdemeanors with suspended sentences. It would never happen in my state, either. JMO
I've learned that arrests\convictions by minors are not the same as years ago. My son was arrested as a minor for a wee bit of weed and we were told we'd have to have it removed from his record, it just isn't like the old days! (Seriously, 2 grams, I was told it was a skinny joint)

I have also. Not in this case, but other ones close to me.
I have called, I have emailed etc. when I have felt strongly about something/or someone that needs to be checked out.
