Found Deceased CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, Colorado Springs, Lorson Ranch, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 *endangered* #21

[susiQ]

It’s curious she doesn’t mention any stops for bathroom or lunch. Especially with a child, let alone a sick child- how does one go 4 hours without stopping for food or bathroom break?

I have no doubt that query will be addressed in her next “interview!”

Sometimes kids have constipation and diarrhea for medical reasons that relate to their system, either it is how their system functions or medications. Sometimes kids have these same issues because someone is giving them the wrong dosages or medications that are not needed as they make the child vulnerable. Sometimes kids have these kinds of issues because of abuse without medications is involved.

We don't know that Gannon takes meds or had these medical issues (and for how long). What we do know is that this step mother asserts that he had constipation, diarrhea and was afraid of having an accident (her words not mine) which indicates that Gannon didn't know how to handle this issue in school (if he was having an issue). Kids with medical problems that have these issues usually have spare clothes at school, an automatic pass to the nurse and understand how to identify the symptoms before they have an accident in their pants, especially by this age.

This leads me to thinking that she was manipulating his diet or giving him medications (OTC or prescribed) that he didn't know about. In abuse cases I have seen, manipulating medication is used to make the person compliant because they need the abuser to help them. I have wondered about this all along. I think we will ultimately see that this child was systematically abused --emotionally, physically, and medically. When we look at her story about taking him to PIA to get gear, if this is an abuse cycle, something major happened the night before and she is making up for it by promising a gift. Of course, this is MOO.


Edited to add: There were questions about Epsom Salts earlier. These salts can be taken orally for constipation. The taste is that of salty water but can be mixed with other items such as juice and one might not know they are ingesting it.
From WebMD---Side effects include:

Applies to magnesium sulfate: crystal, powder, powder for solution, powder for suspension

Along with its needed effects, magnesium sulfate (the active ingredient contained in Epsom Salt) may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.

Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur while taking magnesium sulfate:

Incidence not known

Confusion
dizziness or lightheadedness
fast, slow, or irregular heartbeat
low blood pressure
muscle weakness
skin infection after soaking
sleepiness

Some side effects of magnesium sulfate may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:

Incidence not known

Diarrhea
skin irritation after soaking

IMO. Gannon appeared to drop something, made no attempt to bend down to pick it up. If he was carrying it , it was an entertainment device. What kid would drop his electronic device and not pick it up, unless maybe he was too ill or in too much pain to do so?

Exactly, my kids would of picked it up even if they had the flu. To me it indicates he was severely injured or completely out of it.

 

[Bravo]

IMO the "tips" LE eludes to include what data has come back etc. etc.

 

[Murphy1950]

It IS definitely all pointed on her. But I have researched this pretty extensively and am comfortable that the great majority of the internet does not believe her. If anything, Websleuths is being more restrained than most.

Agree Jane, since we don't embrace rumor or unverified SM, this site is the fairest shot she has and most are disgusted with SM.

 

[susiQ]

I believe her attention seeking behavior is yielding for her exactly the desired results.
We're discussing her here, and both twitter and FB are blowing up with all sorts of posts/tweets/shares/likes/groups focused on her comments/stories/lies.

Suddenly... countless numbers of people are focused on... HER.
Some even believe her, I'm sure.

What more could she possibly want?

Well, if it’s NEGATIVE attention she’s seeking, SHE’S GOT IT!!

 

[Kiranerys]

Okay...so, I missed a ton after my last sign off from WS yesterday...

There is no humor in this situation, but I must admit that I had a legit chuckle reading TS's ridiculous statement. The sheer amount of contradicting statements within the statement itself plus the contradictions it has with previous statements is laughable. Does she REALLY think everyone buys into every word she says?...I've had a sliver of me wanting to give her a shadow of a doubt..but no way. TS is directly responsible for whatever has happened. The backpedaling she is doing is straight of her realization that any minute the walls are going to crash on her.

The funniest thing is that she fails to realise that it matters not one jot what she says or how she tries to explain everything six ways to sunday because an innocent person would have no reason to spin stories and cta,an innocent person would give every last detail to LE at the start and the only media interaction they would need would be at a press conference begging for Gannons safe return!.
For someone who thinks they are oh so clever the woman is a total fool. IMO

 

[Momof4RN]

She mentions the barf bag being white a couple of times. I'm guessing a white bag with barf will be found somewhere and she'll explain it away that Gannon barfed and she tossed the bag out the window or something like that. MOO

Wow I wonder if maybe she is afraid that LE was sifting snow perhaps looking for a white bag and vomit moo

ETA for clarity and all my opinion thoughts assumptions

 

[MamaOV]

Wholeheartedly agree! ALSO, who says "electronic device" when referencing picking up an item a child has dropped. It's SIX syllables and oddly generic, when she could have just said "game," "phone," etc.

Hmm. This makes me wonder if the interview was over e-mail or some other written format like a chat. I think we know her first “press release” was submitted to the reporter in written form.

 

[kkdj]

I have no doubt that query will be addressed in her next “interview!”

Right? Next we'll hear that she packed him a lunch and put it in a white bag that could also suffice as a barf bag, if needed. Plus, when he needed to go, they pulled over to the side of the road. Everything was though of and taken care of, dontcha know?

 

[Kiranerys]

Right there with ya!

Me too! What a total biatch,if she had to say anything at all(she didnt) why not say he had a bit of an upset stomach and wanted to be able to access a bathroom quickly,why (we know why) degrade him like that?

 

[squareandrabbet]

Without breaking TOS regarding SM, I want to say Roderick Drayton is absolutely going to be a hero in this case, and his video evidence, time stamps, CRYSTAL CLEAR IMAGES, are going to nail a lying liar to a WALL. I don’t know if he will speak in MSM, but if he happens to be reading here, Gannon’s family and all of us here will be forever in your debt for the help you are going to provide to this case.
Moo

And audio!! Don't forget the crystal clear audio! (she said helpfully)

Same here. My kids recently had flu and we didn’t leave house for a week- all nonessential errands and tasks were on hold, except for Dr’s visit and trip to pharmacy. And if she wasn’t working, couldn’t she have done these same errands the next day when he felt better and was in school?

I don't think that one needs to be a genius in order to infer that, whatever else is true or untrue about this case, TS has got the constitution of an ox and perfect digestion, because it's written all over her treatment of poor Gannon in this situation. SHE has no empathy or sympathy, because she has no idea what it's like; and no interest in fitting herself in his position to find out.

I also firmly believe that she knew from the beginning, based upon his purported sluggish walking out, that Gannon didn't want to go anywhere and that she didn't care; because I'm a big sensitive baby about being ill, over here on the shady side of 40. When I'm ill, I don't even like to shower - I'm like a cat when it comes to getting wet - and I was at least 45 before I came around to my mother's point of view ("well, gee willikers, Mom, you're not wrong! I DO feel better after a shower, as long as I'm well enough to guarantee I can stand up and not fall down!").

She is making assumptions. LE is NOT social media. Her attention seeking behavior did not provide her intended results. She admitted desire to be standing with AS and regarded as the grieving mother - discard LH. She took liberty to issue press releases without regard or respect for Gannon's parents or LE. Her arrogance is out of control, and hindering the investigation.

That's very wise. Welcome to WS. Post more.

Exactly.
She has really hung herself with this one... Too many contradictory statements, implausible scenarios, and questionable information that can be verified... LE has already checked on that "wreck" that caused her to take backroads, too.

Does LE need to "check", really, though?

In my mind and experience, if a "wreck" requires the rerouting of traffic, LE is already generally present with lights, flashers, some members directing traffic around it. I'd bet very much they already know.

 

[Bravo]

Gosh when my kids were young and ill I simply picked up the phone. Called the drugstore and anything I needed was delivered.

 

[MysteryAlpaca]

Wow I wonder if she is aware that LE was sifting snow looking for a white bag and vomit

has that been confirmed to be what they were looking for?

 

[manybooks]

Nintendo Switch controllers can take pictures! Woah. Game changer! (No pun intended)
Oh please please please let Gannon have known this and wouldn’t be amazing if *this* gave LE the final piece of the puzzle?!

Snipped.

LE would totally know if there was a wreck. If anyone in a car accident plans to file an insurance claim, there has to be a police report. LE knows if there was a wreck, where it was, and what time.

[Mauig’ma]

With what we know about her lies to date is there enough to arrest her yet? At least for lying to le?

✔@EPCSheriffAs we have explained throughout this investigation, this is a very fluid investigation & it can change at any minute of the day. The scheduled search has been postponed. We will keep you in the loop as it happens & as we can release it. Our Tips to date are 801. #FindGannon #Hope

hmmm.. i am wondering if there is ANYTHING at all to this twitter post by EPCS yesterday. We have mentioned before that their words seem to be purposeful.
The “801 Tips” stands out to me (in addition to the phrase “as it happens”)

On 2/21 the EPCSO reported having 718 tips. While it’s possible in 6 days, they received only 83 tips, I feel like with ALL the attention around this case, people are calling in things left and right. Maybe I’m wrong...
801 is the Utah area code
Far fetched but could they know something and they are trying to send that message?
I also realize, SM did not have enough time to drive to Utah (7-8 hours away)BUT maybe there is something else to it. Just brainstorming...

I hold a small hope that TS's daughter is among the 801 tips. I am sure that she knows something, but is fearful of her mother's rage. TS was concealing her face, but then forced her own daughter to do her bidding to the press. TS has No regard for her discomfort, protecting her privacy, or burdening her conceal abuse and murder .

 

[JTR1973]

*sigh*
What to say, where to begin? Frankly, I'm speechless. Gobsmacked. I trust LE, I really do. But after the crap that was revealed yesterday, I just am more confused than before. HOW is she still a free person? What on earth kind of information does LE have to support her crazy story, pardon me storIES?? Obviously to all of us, NONE. LE can't possibly believe her. So what are they doing!? What are they waiting for?!?! This is just too much.

Press that bleeping bleep to make her squirm then nail her bleep and put her bleeping bleep in bleeping jail where she can rot the rest of her bleeping life.

Again, I do trust LE, DM, the process. But I am getting SO angry. SO sick and tired of this.

WHERE IS GANNON?! Tell us you bleeping bleep {imagines myself shaking the ever-loving BLEEP out of this nasty piece of bleep}

 

[squareandrabbet]

Wow I wonder if she is aware that LE was sifting snow looking for a white bag and vomit

I think she's aware that pages and pages of discussion have gone on about "a white thing she was carrying on the security video and what it might have been"; and I think she might also have seen speculation that that's what they were sifting snow for.

If I recall properly, "sifting the snow for vomit" was total speculation originating here, unless you know more or otherwise.
