Found Deceased CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 **ARREST** #43

[dawnraks]

Oh I agree with you 100%. I apologize if it came out wrong. My thought process was I personally IMOO wouldn’t need to have a lot of supplies on hand if I had just done a complete house clean and hadn’t restocked my stash. Her timing to get those supplies at that moment most definitely fits into the puzzle but minus a child “known” missing/murdered the supplies can be warranted. The store receipt doesn’t show more vinegar I don’t believe & unclear if it was later bought in my memory. If bleach were on the receipt or mentioned by LE instead of coconuts I guess (still thinking runaway child) red flags would be waving clearly. Does that make sense?

#72 of the AA states the receipt for the dollar store shoes vinegar was purchased. She likely sent HH to the dollar store to buy vinegar then sent a text adding on more things to buy.

I think she shot him to death.

1. She told LE Eguardo had a gun.

2. Beating him to death with anything is way too risky and messy and difficult and would leave a lot more evidence. It’s also not as sure a thing as a gunshot.

3. She planned the murder, the final blow. Gun much more likely in that scenario.

Did they own firearms? I have not seen it mentioned before.

Those three sentence enhancers, coupled with that law enforcement leak, seem to indicate he was beaten, shot, and stabbed.

The amount of blood, and the nature of that blood, looks like most of it came from a beating (to me).

It was soaked through the carpet, the mattress, splattered on atleast two walls (from what I can tell), and was found behind an electrical outlet cover.

A planned murder doesn’t necessarily mean one that leaves the least amount of blood evidence, or involves the quickest means.

Just ask Patrick Frazee.

There's a picture of her at a shooting range with a semi-automatic rifle that looks nothing like a rental to me.

Sorry, what LE leak? I missed that. And I thought that the 3 weapons being listed didn’t nec mean all 3 were used, no? With regard to PF, tho I did not follow that case, I heard about it, and that was a male, beating a blindfolded female I thought. Maybe yeah, if G was asleep that could have happened, but if she had a gun available why would she bother taking that messy major risk. I bet LE knows exactly how the blood splatter in BR happened. How could they not, right? The experts will know almost immediately just by looking at the splatter pattern. Those 3 are very distinctly different. We can’t really see much in those pix.

Almost all military families own weapons. My father owned an arsenal.

The Sun broke it initially, but KKTV confirmed their reporting with a source that said Gannon had been shot and stabbed.

I was previously sold on the beating, but skeptical about a gun being used. I thought they were covering their bases, and charging based on all the weapons she could have used.

If two of them are based in reality however, then it stands to reason that all three are (blunt force too). We should find out more at the preliminary hearing.

Authorities Believe Gannon Stauch Was Shot, Stabbed

For those that missed Leigh Egan's latest article about LS. She interviewed her from jail on Wednesday. LS says she's innocent & has been framed
LS claims that "90% of it (AA) is speculation." Of course it's speculation as she hasn't been tried yet...but it was enough to arrest her!
Her lawyers have finally gotten through to her & told her to STOP talking. She refused to talk any details about the case other than to say that she's innocent. I'm thinking that her silence is temporary...it would be a miracle for her to stop talking all together!

If you missed it here's the article:
EXCLUSIVE: Stepmom accused of killing Colorado boy Gannon Stauch tells CrimeOnline she’s innocent

Tricia will be discussing it live on Websleuths YouTube tonight!

Someone assure me that she can't possibly be granted bond!
I mean the woman is charged with first degree murder of a child in her care!

I don’t know what happened that night or day but I don’t believe there was a fire that burned any large part of carpet by Gannon . I believe if there was carpet missing or destroyed it was her attempting yet again to cover up what she did. I believe those internet searches were intentional and she knew or hoped Al would see at them.

she was without a doubt an emotional abuser to Gannon . I believe what mostly likely occurred in that house started out as common or usual violence or abuse on Gannon to take out her frustration even when it had zero to do with Gannon . He just happened to be an easy target for her. Then she went too far and from that point she went in to over drive on how to cover it up even if it meant killing him. She believed people would believe her .

I’ve lived in a house like that and sadly you just want (no matter how old you get) for the abuser to love you, to like you, you want to make them happy even though they terrify you. I was Gannons age and terrible mental and unimaginable physical violence on a child so small occurred daily. I never told anyone except my mom and even then I struggled to explain and she stayed and it just got worse . To this day that abuser thinks that even as a child at starting at the age of 7 and 8 I was “a bad kid” and whatever he did to me I deserved .

I was warned not to tell anyone . I was told no one would believe me. I was told they’d pick up and dial CPS for me and take me to jail instead. I was told if I ran away they’d hunt me and kill me (I believe they would’ve ) . I also can very very easily see how one of those times he could’ve went too far (literally nothing had to set him off) . He could’ve done one of his usual “fun” games of picking me up by my throat , strangling me, holding me in the air , throwing me into a wall and at that point I’m down on the ground again. He’d kick , pull hair. My point is there could’ve been injuries that he or they couldn’t explain away. His job was LE. At that point it’s very easy to know what he would’ve done. He would’ve finished it. Packed me away and got hid of me and told everyone I ran away.

I think there’s a high possibility bc of his job and the town we live in that would've never been questioned at all. Bc he’s great at his job. Upstanding citizen. Great all around guy. In his mind then and now it would’ve been justified . He believes the stories he tells even when others tell him he’s wrong .

I’m really sorry. I need to have distance from this case right now. I feel tremendously guilty in doing that.

I know many people won’t understand this but I always try to remember we are all Gods children and it’s not only us who feels pain The Lord does as well bc we are all his children . Being a parent to two children I know I’d do anything for .I’m glad it’s not my job to judge to decide someone’s fate . Forgiving is a lot easier than forgetting. I am for “justice” but even when it comes it’s so hollow bc it doesn’t fix it, it doesn’t bring anyone back, it doesn’t undo the terrible unthinkable crimes. I do hope and pray she gets life in prison but she’s always going to be the type to not take accountability, to make herself the victim even when her victim was a defenseless child. Everyone involved in this needs prayer.

OMG! I'm so sorry all that happened to you!
Thank you for being here and giving us further insight.
hugs

Hi. Been out a few days. I haven’t doubted all three weapons were used in one way or another. She is that evil, that hateful and likely in that much of a rage. I believe what DDA Allen said. I’m just curious about which came first. I believe the stabbing or some type of beating with a blunt object, simply because of rage. I believe the gunshot came later, as a means to assure herself that he was dead and not because it was necessary.
However, going to read the article now.

Not only will she not be granted bond, but she stands absolutely no chance. Very few murder cases are as strong as this one, and they have her dead to rights.

While theoretically true that she “could be granted bond,” its not the slightest bit realistic. It’s essentially a click-bait headline, designed to draw outraged people to see what’s going on.

It’s akin to saying “Leticia Stauch could walk free after trial.”

True, but false.

She isn’t going anywhere. What she calls speculation, is what the DA calls evidence. Tons of it.

It will be interesting to see if the court awards her any of the marital assets, or even a portion of his retirement pension, as she did “take are of his kids for years” and hasn’t yet been convicted of murder. I doubt it, but who knows what will happen.

The way I understood this is AS and LH shared custody, six months on and six months off. If that’s the case, LS did not take care of them for years. I think it was more like two years off and on. I also think the kids were scheduled to go back to their moms at the end of the school year.
Please correct me if I am wrong but I did read a bit about their custody arrangement.

I don’t think LS signed up for being a stepparent and I think she resented it.

RE: assets in the divorce. He will owe her nothing. She murdered his child.

Gannon's description text associated with that video reads, "I will upload a video every Friday." That was posted April 29, 2019.

It never happened. No more videos. I've wondered why Gannon posted only one video.

At the tail-end of the one video we hear a whisper voice say something that, IMO, sounds like they're warning of someone's coming and then they stop recording. I can not determine exactly what is said (sounds like, "Stop recording") but clearly they don't want to be caught recording and/or playing the video game or whatever.

Whatever happened at that point may have resulted in Gannon not (permitted to?) posting of any more videos.

It was innocent fun. Who would squelch that, and why?

I don't want to break TOS, so all I can say is that LH encouraged him to start recording himself gaming & to have a YT channel of his gaming. Gannon followed through and made that first video after LH had encouraged him.

I don't think LH was the one that recorded him & I don't know why he didn't continue making videos after that first one. My guess is that he either lost interest as young kids do, or that LS or AS didn't want him to continue his channel. However, Gannon made that first one after LH gave him some support and encouragement (maybe over a Spring Break visit last year.)

Yes, on top of that she has proven herself to be a flight risk, evading police and attacking LE on her trip back to Colorado.

Thanks @MassGuy! I didn't think she stood a chance in he!!, but got worried when I saw the possibility mentioned in Leigh's article. Your assurance makes me feel much better!

Oh yeah, she hated it, but at the same time (go figure) tried to make herself out to be a saintly sole caregiver of “his kids.” What she says with one side of her mouth, she contradicts with the other. Maybe she’s got dueling personalities as well as aliases.

Just wanted to check when the next court hearing is set (and if anyone can tell me where to find info like that in future). TIA
