Found Deceased CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 **ARREST** #38

[NYatheart]

I just saw the news. Never in a million years did I think they’d find him in Florida. My heart breaks for his family and loved ones. I’m happy he will finally be going home to them, I just wish it were under different circumstances.

Oh, there’s certainly Federal crimes here.

How this typically plays out, is the Feds will back off and allow Colorado to prosecute. It’s nice to have an insurance policy like that (federal charges to fall back on), but they won’t need it.

I was hopeful maybe a fed charge would bring the death sentence. Lwop doesn’t seem like it’s enough

My head is not my friend today because it is going to very dark places. But, I am wondering how she did it? Honestly how easy would it be to dump a body on the side of a highway without being seen?

It happens all the time. Bodies sometimes go years without being discovered. I can think of countless cases where road crews, or cleanup crews came across bodies.

 

[Knitty]

Found in my county. I remember when she was arrested in Florida, but for whatever reason, I never thought they meant "here." That poor child, discarded like a piece of trash. I hope she rots.

Off to read the witness list.

 

[LeBlack]

Of all the places to hide the body, Florida had to mean something to her or be a purposeful stop for some reason or another, OR she had help IMO

Hottest place on her way home. She likely had another option or 2 chosen along the way "home" moo

 

[AgeofAquaruis]

I

Did this woman actually drive his body across country?!

This explains the murder charge, as the evidence would have been overwhelming. Moot point now, as they have Gannon.

I have been thinking this especially since she got arrested in SC. Also think she had accomplice/s. MOO

I think Gannons body is....

1. gone forever, never to be found
2. in an easily accessible location, the likes of which, are almost unlimited in the region
3. out of state

Clipped and quoted myself, as number 3 turns out to be true. There were several posters on just yesterday that speculated Gannon's body may be out of state.

____A press release from the El Paso County Sheriff says the office was contacted by the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office in Florida after that office responded to a call about a deceased juvenile male in Pace. After an autopsy, the remains were tentatively identified as Gannon’s.

“Responded to a call about deceased juvenile male...”. How did they know it was a male after all of this time in the Florida heat!?

I vacation in the area Gannon was found and there’s a big Navy base so my theory is that Gannon’s remains were given to someone who was known to the family via military ties. Probably met whoever was disposing of Gannon halfway between Colorado and Pensacola. I do wonder how this person was contacted, though, without being known to police.

(sorry idk if I’m allowed to mention who I believe had Gannon’s remains initially because I don’t fully understand the victim-blaming rules)

 

[Yellow Rose]

There are FBI agents on the witness list from Florida.

And that list was issued LONG before they found his body in terms of time. So they definitely have her in Florida and the ties to his body being there.

TS ? no not that TS

 

[Gardenista]

Anybody know if there are toll booths on any of her possible routes?

I'd rather see her sit in cage for the rest of her life. Too bad we have to pay for that though.

Absolutely. His body being in Florida is a surprise to us, but probably not at all surprising to law enforcement.

 

[Pink2017]

WTH! She wasn’t been going watched 24/7?

I wonder if someone else took him-LS rented the car and sent someone else. Just a theory. I am of the belief she had assistance.

 

[Lore Listener]

Interesting, this goes to my weird theory, that a "spirit" wants their body found. There have been so many random findings of bodies, that defy any logic.

"... Bizarrely #GannonStauch found 666.6 miles away from where #TeciaStauch was arrested."​

Oh my that is scary.

My current thinking:

GS was killed in CO in the area in South DougCo where they were snow sifting. They wouldn't have gone through that effort on a whim. Dan May sure as heck wouldn't have filed murder charges on a "no body" case without significant evidence that GS was deceased. They had to have found evidence that pointed to life not being viable.

I am leaning towards she moved him later, but am not sure.

The witness list really seems to lay out a bread crumb trail to me. We know that vehicles were impounded, so I am guessing this is where the second rental car company came in. We know LS' passport was taken (because she said so in DWAP interview) so she couldn't flee the country. People are asking how they weren't watching her 24/7, but it seems like they have a trail. Unfortunately, she left over 2000 miles to cover, so that may be why they didn't find him right away. LE may have known he was somewhere on that route, but it was just too expansive to search the whole thing. That may also be why GS was identified so quickly, even if he was all the way in FL. Juvenile male on that general route? Could be GS.

they can identify if its male or female but the hip bones and the shape of the skull, any medical examiner on scene can do that.

Look how many miles it is from Pace, Fl. To Myrtle Beach SC!!! 9 h 55 min (666.6 mi) via I-20 E

Freaky, right? Just saying.
