Found Deceased CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, Colorado Springs, Lorson Ranch, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 *endangered* #10

[Teche]

I don’t think she went there with a body. I think she took Gannon to someone to keep him safely in hiding. I think LS is connected to someone who is connected to where Gannon is. imo

Why do you think LS would take him somewhere to keep him in hiding? Hiding from whom?

The area they are searching in might "seem" nice as some have mentioned, but that's essentially Pueblo. Pueblo is not a good area, so many awful things happen there.

IIRC, from many trips from Denver to New Mexico, Pueblo is south of the search area and Colorado Springs.

I just took a drive to check out the search activity. It’s not on Woodmoor the subdivision East of I25. It’s near the Woodmoor Estates area on 105 north of Palmer Lake. The exact address is 13800 Highway 105.

The EPCSO mobile command unit was there. I didn’t see any activity - probably farther off the road. KRDO was also there - the reporter said that as far as he knew, Gannon hasn’t been found. The search team has been there since 7:30 this morning. The area they’re searching is pretty rugged.

Thank you!!!!!

Against all odds, I NEED and want to believe that Gannon is still alive. When TS says he had an accident but he is still alive I REALLY want to believe her! I pray and hope that sweet Gannon will be found alive! I follow these threads because I believe that all of us really hope and pray that the truth will be what we want it to be. May that truth be what I need it to be today.

I have a feeling this is going to be extremely unpopular, but...

What if SM is telling the truth? She could possibly have narcissistic tendencies and possibly has dissociative disorder. Mix that with the pressure she may put on herself for not being Gannon's "real mom". She might not have been a good mother - those issues would contribute to that.

Has anyone else here been absolutely terrified that you are going to be caught in a store shoplifting yet you've never stolen anything before? You don't even have any intention of stealing but you are just freaking out over it. That probably draws more attention to you and makes you look suspicious. I am very familiar with that and I've never stolen anything. Ever. I'm not sure how to word it but I think that could possibly apply if she is innocent. She's making herself look guilty.

Anyway, just what if she's telling the truth.

Edited to add reasoning: I really, really, really want Gannon to be a runaway. There might be a chance he's out there.

You can't be telling the "truth" if you're psychotic (which is what you're suggesting). A guy I've known (as an inpatient) for a long time believes he is the King of England. He tells everyone he's the King of England. He likes trips to the beach, where he stands and smokes a pipe and watches for his Armada. He tells people that Harry and William are his grandchildren.

None of this is true.

Further, in this case, LS has several conflicting stories that cannot all be the truth. First, Gannon was home sick and went to an unknown friend's house at 3:15. Then, she admits she went somewhere with Gannon and states that a different camera caught him coming home (she doesn't mention this little trip in her early statements). Disassociative states are not remembered (that's part of the definition). Now, she remembers And she remembers why there's blood in certain places (not mentioned earlier). And while she says he ran away (there's that text on his phone), she also thinks he's abducted.

This cannot all be true. I advise exercising caution in believing anything that certain people say - and frankly, the only people I can compare this woman to are not mentally But they aren't "telling the truth" because they don't know how. They do know how to lie to protect themselves.

OMG, two feet of snow, that’s a big snowfall for a few weeks, isn’t it?

Not really. It’s been a snowy couple weeks and we’re at a higher elevation, close to 7,000’. It seems like a lot when we’re plowing the driveway every hour but it’s pretty normal for this time of year.

 

[Jema]

I don’t think she went there with a body. I think she took Gannon to someone to keep him safely in hiding. I think LS is connected to someone who is connected to where Gannon is. imo

Maybe if she hurt him he could heal somewhere?

 

[krowdkat]

It's truly sad watching this unfold. Gannon nor his parents ever had a chance once she took control.

 

[Mito]

I’ve believed her from the first interview. I felt she was/is lying from omission. I almost felt like an outcast saying so but if I didn’t post my true opinion, I would be a hypocrite. I can’t live with that. I’m unafraid to stand alone. It doesn’t always feel good but I can get through it. LS is plenty guilty of a lot of other stuff. She didn’t kill him. She believes Gannon is coming back. So do I. imo

A normal person doesn’t lie, would be lasered focused on fear for the child and trying to find him by letting LE do it’s job. Nothing we saw on the video or heard her say about events has been logical. Most things have been laughable unbelievable. This is very tragic and I think in the end she will be revealed as a very cruel person. IMOO

Not really. Some years it's a lot. Other years it's not.

"Saturday Night, G was helping me unload in the garage and cut his foot because there are a lot of tools because Albert does woodworking."
Is she now explaining possible forensic evidence?

But, of course. Also, why would he be barefoot?

 

[Mito]

Maybe if she hurt him he could heal somewhere?

he
would still talk. The talking and ruining her marriage and reputation is likely her motive. If he needed to heal a hospital would have been great but this was about her not him.

 

[PrayingForMissing]

I'm confused. Pueblo is south. Are you saying it's "like" Pueblo?

Same thing I said. Waaaay far away from each other. Different directions. And Pueblo is NOTHING like Woodmoor area. Like at all.

 

[manybooks]

Watching the Sheriff's office news conference today, and I thought the same as one of the reporter's asked - thought she looked for sure as if she had been crying. (she replied it pertained to something in personal life)
And one of her next comments was interesting to me - "... I do go home every day and pray for the Gannon family..."

Interesting wording. Not 'Gannon's family'. but "the Gannon family"

 

[K9Enzo]

I’m sorry but I don’t believe this 11 year old boy has been playing Swiss Family Robinson outdoors alone or with someone since 27 Jan.

 

[SalMAnder]

OMG, two feet of snow, that’s a big snowfall for a few weeks, isn’t it?

Plus, we've had really cold weather so even on days that it isn't snowing, there isn't time for the snow to melt. And, as I've mentioned a few times before for that area, the tree canopy doesn't allow for as much melting up there as it does out towards the Eastern plains side of town. It just keeps adding up.

 

[jillycat]

I don't think they can make a statement either way. One it would upset the parents and could potentially be a lawsuit (LE wasn't even trying to find my child). Also, I don't think they want people giving up on looking for Gannon or stop giving tips. If they say they think he's dead, people will stop paying attention, grieve and move on and then we never find his little body. They need the body to prosecute (well not really, but it helps).

JMO

They’ve consistently said they’re not saying anything about the investigation. I was surprised she went there at all.

 

[kelsie]

Sitting here with my laptop open hoping this search yields SOMETHING, anything.

That's why I said, essentially Pueblo. Anywhere near Pueblo, I stay away from

 

[Inthedetails]

Here’s a couple of maps.

Thanks - so the current search area is driveable in the time SM was away from home on Monday, right?
