Here for Gannon.

No, big game hunters DO NOT drag an animal body to a creek or stream and bleed into the water. Typically the animal is gutted and bled out on site. Many people use the heart/ liver, leaving not much for scavengers. Even smaller big game like deer are a challenge just to get to a vehicle.

@Alpha Bravo, I just realized how my post misled you and it was too late for me to edit. The word into, should be next to. I guess that did come off as gory as well, lol! Please accept my apologies.

The men in my family, drag the deer (down hill) and do all of that next to the creek.

Familytreenow.com lists a brother of someone named Letitia Hardin as living near where Gannon was found. Not sure if she ever used that variation...

I don't think she did. But I think Letitia is the Latin version of the name from which "Leticia" originates. Jmo

You know, I understand as human we are/can be emotional beings. I understand the feelings of jealousy, resentment, anger, felling worthless, feeling like somebody is better than you, feeling you can't do anything right, feeling like your world as you know it is about to end. I understand these feelings can be overwhelming and hard to deal with.

BUT

What I don't understand is projecting these feelings and emotions on to an 11 year old child. Channeling those to a child to the point that you abuse and murder him. Seeing the pain and anguish on his parents face then getting in front of a camera telling them they owe YOU an apology. Moving the small body as far away from his family as possible so he can't be found and at least brought home to the ones that loved him so much. Posting videos of the child waving to the camera to taunt the parents of a child you murdered. Sitting so cocky in front of a judge acting like LEA have made a mistake and will be out before lunch.
Like there are some crimes I can read and follow and be like, "ok, I can kinda see what is going on here," this one, not even close. I can't for the life of me understand why she did this even though I know how hard emotions can be to handle.

I cannot wait until they start unsealing more documents in this case. Although, I know it is going to be hard to read, I'm hoping it will lend an insight to help me at least somewhat understand why she felt the need to take the life of a child that seemed to be so loved. Maybe that is the reason. Maybe she couldn't handle how much love Gannon got from his father, mother, sister, grandparents, everybody that knew him. Maybe she couldn't handle the light he projected and had to put it out.

Sorry, I'm kind of rambling. I've followed many cases over the years. None have punched me in my emotional gut they was this has.

I could not have said it better. I feel like you read my mind.

That 900 mile thing was debunked here, with vehicle records showing that the car in question had more miles. I could be wrong. Also, it's more than 900 miles RT from CoS to that place in Florida. She would have had to drive to Florida and back again to show up for her Cousin It interview.

It's 20 hours just one way. Even speeding, she couldn't do that. It's actually 1300 miles.

So she did something to him on Monday, moved him again on Tuesday (IMO) and THEN manages to rent yet another car or truck and heads off inexplicably through Texas and onward to Florida.

Weird thing about that road trip is it goes near Frisco Texas which is exactly where LH went with her aunt to get away from CS for a few days. I am in no way suggesting anything at all negative about LH. I'm just saying that it is odd. Also the dates aren't the same.

@LietKynes sorry for the confusion with my post. I was trying to find a clever way to point y’all to twitter without saying twitter since social media is not allowed. So, I am sorry WS but i will just say it, take my punishment, and ask for forgiveness later...

There is (or I should say “may be” since it’s not MSM confirmed yet) surveillance video of LS bringing a suitcase that ‘appears’ to be the same one poor GS was found in into a hotel.

I am sorry I broke the rules....

No, I think you put it just fine.
Thanks for clarifying.
I was being too nosy.
We are all in this for Gannon and we care !!!!!

It may not be very long for more information to be revealed in msm.
I am thinking the AA could also be released soon !

My question at the moment is if there was anyone relatives or friends (yes, even killers have 'besties' ),who knew something and are keeping silent.
I feel like TS mainly acted alone --but wouldn't put it past someone who met up with her and 'helped' her.

This is a general statement and my opinion : Sorry --not sorry---even if you're my 'friend' or whomever I am turning you in if I suspect something-- esp. a crime involving an innocent child.
My .02 is that somewhere in the perp's past someone enabled her.
Apologies if that's not the case , and she's just a 'bad seed' all by her lonesome.

 

[SleuthBee]

Yes there's a reason why it's referred to as 'dead weight'. Very difficult to carry a dead body.

I agree, it is very strenuous. One relative suffered a massive heart attack while bring back a 10-point.

My point being that TS could have done the messy stuff outdoors and maybe near a stream.

 

[Pink2017]

Better yet sell it all and give the proceeds to LH,and AS.

 

[Knox]

@Knox , If you can think of a direction, please let us know. Fortunately, I do not see a foundation to build her defense. With over 107 warrants, I imagine TS's SM, email, Apple Watch, cloud, PCs, calls and texts will impeach any viable defense.

I foresee conflict between TS and her attorney's. She may be a client that doesn't heed her attorney's advise.

Of this I am 100% certain. BTW, i watched the court hearing again this morning. Her PDO's cough was awful and she looked like she felt terrible. Wonder if she had/has COVID-19?

Friends may not have helped with the crime, just to console her soul, poor thing, a victim. Let’s go to church and pray together.

 

[Pink2017]

Leigh said she'd try to confirm the suitcase with an Aunt of Gannon's today.

Yes, it’s floating.

When a 'like' isn't enough, thanks !

What a beautiful post.
And we won't let his light be 'put out' !!

I am also mindful of the other children who've perished at the hands of monsters.
Gabriel Fernandez, Lucas Hernandez, Jeremiah Valencia, Maleah Davis, and so many others.
My opinion : The punishment --even life without parole-- is not harsh enough.
These monsters need to fear the penalties of the law and yet I feel like they scoff at it.

Worth a re-listen!!

So you were the last one to see Gannon?
LS: Correct!

Ummm helloooooo?! The one time she tells the truth!!

Let me just say they don’t look like blood relatives if that’s the brother

Probably not a connection then. Would be pretty stupid to leave him so close to a family connection!

 

[gingergina]

We do know LS was there (video which we can't discuss). But I can see her creating some excuse for HH not to come home that night? Regardless, RD's cameras will tell the whole story. Thank God they were in place and recording, without that evidence, what happened to Gannon would have been infinitely more difficult to prove.

And AUDIO. I’d like to see a transcript of them talking getting in the truck. By talking I mean LS having a monologue and Gannon saying nothing.

 

[NuttMegg]

So could it be possible that LS loaded the suitcase into her car, drove to airport to get AS, picked up AS and then rented the car so she could leave her car with his body at the airport and not at the house where LE was still searching in and around their house? I could just puke thinking that AS probably was likely just feet away from his son or may have even briefly ridden in the car where his little boy was

She rented the car at 8:30 AM IIRC, then she would have picked up AS in the rental about 3 hours later. What did she do for those 3 hours in the rental? Anyway, that could be easily proven, when she rented. I wonder if anyone else used her car, from the airport, for that 27 hour period. But there could be receipts, depending on where she parked and how the COS airport is.

 

[Pink2017]

How does it get clear under the bridge, then? Am I missing something? In that crime scene video, the people are having to go down under the bridge. I doubt she left it in plain sight in between the two roadways. Maybe.

I think water was up and she didn’t see rocks under water.

Problem I have with that airport run with AS is that under the circumstances AS luggage & equipment takes up a lot of space and secondly, he would have seen the suitcase and said, “hey honey, going somewhere?” Imo
