CO - Gannon Stauch, 11, found deceased, Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 27 Jan 2020 *Arrest* #61

[Warwick7]

Witness on the stand talking about the candle incident, now.

Play.

He was allowed to stay up late but was grounded from his switch. He was so helpful with the dogs. Comforted her about Kobe Bryant. Fire alarm. She was upstairs, Gannon downstairs, Little sis 'faking sleep' this version.

In this version she grabs little sis and dogs and takes her to the truck herself. Gannon semi awake on the sofa. Claims fire was on 'a small location' on the cover. A lot of 'I don't know' when he's asking for specifics. "It wasn't tall." "When I pulled him I pulled the covers too. We smash it down [to put out the fire]." They run up the stairs to the garage. Gannon trips behind her. They drive off.

"Gannon had little burns on his arms from that." "They weren't bad."

Contacted HH to tell her what happened. When they got back, they opened the windows to let the smoke out. Put some things in the trash.

They had some 'family meeting' talking through the situation. LS is trying to sell cool and calm mum 101. They all decided to agree to 'exaggerate' the fire to get AS to come home? WTF.

Now Gannon accidentally or on purpose knocked the candle over to hide him playing with his switch.

Is now claiming that she was cool about it all, that if anything in the room was burnt they could afford to replace it, that was fine.

Claiming the candle lighting was a normal thing Gannon did. She hasn't mentioned him having gastric issues once.

Now the arm was fine, but had 'a little bit of peeling to it'. Like it was a sunburn level of burn. Only put aloe on the right arm, very late, Monday morning early hours. Now claiming Gannon slept in her room with her. Then was in Little sis's room for a bit. Then downstairs in his room by the morning.

Stunning....
She keeps saying "I don't know" yet remembers small things like: Little sis 'faking sleep' and Gannon trips behind her.

It burns me the dogs are taken out before Gannon is rescued.

Her, "they had some family meeting" --was her pysco video. That video doesn't show that she was cool about it all. It certainly doesn't show they could afford to replace it, and that was fine. She had him believing they were going to sell the couch to pay for stuff. Ugh!

Claiming the candle lighting was a normal thing Gannon did is opposite of what HH testified to.

Gannon slept in his room in a cold basement not in her room with her (HH was there). Not in Little sis's room for a bit.

And here is the clincher, the reason she did the fire: "They all decided to agree to 'exaggerate' the fire to get AS to come home."

 

[Warwick7]

Talking now about AS teaching him to use a boxcutter, how she thought that was a bad idea because he was 'acting weird'. How that was before they 'got him into counselling'.

Claims Gannon was in an 'upset rage' because of 'too much transitions' and had a boxcutter. Claims she doesn't remember where this happened. "So much anger and aggression." Now he had a knife, not a boxcutter. She took his amiibo and threw it in the front yard and made him call LH to 'calm him down'.

What?!
None of her pysco bable makes sense.

Bbm

That was infuriating. If you’re going to make up a story, or change the details from the reality, you would think she would alter the narrative to make herself look better. It was like G was an afterthought in that situation- wasn’t he the one in the most danger according to her narrative of his proximity to the fire? So ridiculous.

 

[Seattle1]

I don't think her FBI interview will be at all like her phone calls. I believe Agent Grusing will be in control.
moo

Yes -- and gone is LS's screeching voice!

Recess until 1:30 pm MT

Thank goodness. My Letecia-headache came on early today.

 

[Warwick7]

Anyone picking up vibes that T would set Gannon up to get in trouble, lose his Switch privileges, then T would *whisper, whisper* conspire with Gannon behind Al's back to get his Switch back?

Like good cop bad cop?
I'm relying only on posts, I can't watch till later.

 

[scapa]

Exactly!! She never tells the stories the same way. There are sooo many changes in everything she says minute to minute. I feel like trying to understand her is similar to hacking your way through the deepest jungle overgrowth on Earth. One little vine or root isn't hard to hack away. 10000 of them and it becomes nearly impossible.

It is impossible to keep track of the narrative because she puts so many insignificant, changing details every time she opens her mouth. She's never told the fire story the same way. Every event that happened inside and outside of the house is told differently without ever answering the core question! It's infuriating. She just keeps going and going and going but never gets anywhere. All these interviews and phone calls were complete wastes of time and never brought anyone a single step forward or closer in finding Gannon and what happened to him.

I truly believe she is missing the switch to turn off her brain battery. It's exhausting to most people to operate this way, but people like her never seem to get tired or fatigued when they are in this state of mind. Their narcissism completely takes over every other body function. I'm more listening then watching but has she even stopped once for a drink of water or something? It doesn't sound like it.

Having lived with someone similar for years it's maddening. You basically get to a point where you can't keep up with them any longer and will agree to anything just to make them stop talking and disengage from the issue. I feel like that's what she's doing now. She hoping to wear down whomever it is that poses a threat to her and send them off on the 100's of different paths she's lead them to.

What she doesn't understand is that she's not getting out of this. It will not go away. There will be a breaking point in which she will be slapped in handcuffs and charged with this.

Yep, it's impossible and agonizing to keep up.

She's like a living embodiment of the old adage of the political operator: "Flood the zone with ****!"

The constant changing stories and endless pileup of conflicting details make it so hard to plot a course towards the truth.

It's exhausting. Those kids must have prized the hours they were away from her. I bet HH would have worked 5 jobs just to have some breathing space.

If looks could kill.

 

[Seattle1]

The way she pronounces the silent G at the end of "ing" words drives me nuts. "Anytheen-guh".

Oh, and "why come". Good thing she was teaching children.

For me, it's her pronunciation of "situation."

That and her use of cover or covers for a blanket. JMO

 

[iamshadow21]

I hate the way she talks about his digestion issues. I know it’s a part of the case, so we keep hearing about it, but it feels so dehumanising towards him.

That's the reason I'm not transcribing that stuff, except to say she's talking about them.

MOO

RSBM

And this all was learned in the "Doctor TEE Book of Manipulation 101", Chapter One.

( I think she has that book on the table in front of her in court)

Enough ... I'm all for punishment requiring LS to lose her hair for life! A clean-shaven head until her death!

So, possibly ( a lot of question marks)
the fire was intentional to get Albert home (per LS)
Gannon wasn't supposed to get burned that much (she said something very close to this)
Gannon was worried about his burns (direct from Gannon)
Maybe got backhanded for continuing to worry which caused nose and mouth injury (LS disciplining of kids per HH and burns are blistering, peeling, bleeding per LS stories)
Things are spiraling quickly and the focus becomes hiding Gannon's injuries from Albert (I don't think we've heard more than trying to hide carpet damage)
Windows are opened to air things out (HH and LS)
Gannon is possibly drugged to keep him quiet, maybe ease the pain (autopsy and some drugs in system?)? Bath salts story to cover drugs? Made to sleep in frigid room (per HH)
Gannon looks worse in the morning and LS determines GS needs to be gotten rid of (purely speculative)?
More drugs, sluggish walk to car (doorbell video), hope that Gannon expires on errands????
Gannon left somewhere near Petco?
LS goes back (two trips) to check and he's not dying and she needs to get back before girls get home
Takes him home and the rage murder happens?

I look forward to the prosecutions timeline and the evidence to support it. I know this trial is about LS ngri, yet I still want to know what happened to that poor kid.

All JMO.

without the weight of it, her posture may improve

 

[Marie Bell]

She knows she's arrested for Gannon's murder, right? She may not leave. And yet she's very matter of fact, controlled and calm. The change in her voice from those calls with Al is night and day.

She's being 'intelligent, refined, Letecia' now because there's a professional man in a suit and tie, whom she thinks can be won round to her way of thinking. She reckons she can get that new identity and an apology within just a couple of hours. And she's sounding like such a great mother and stepmother she's nearly fooling me. Fascinated to watch what happens when she sees it's not going to be quite as easy as she currently thinks.

 

[Teche]

I’m not sure what other evidence he means, but I believe he had to keep paying for HH’s vehicle.

They didn’t release it for 2 years.

I would guess he continued to pay rent for a few months after vacating the house.

More likely the Defense stopped by WS yesterday and read some of what we were saying about them.

(That was meant to be humorous, but who knows?)

It pains me to say it, but the defence had a point here, I think. I was a little bit concerned myself to hear this 'pathway to evil' theory coming up. It tends to imply that she's already been found guilty.

Excellent analysis!!!!
I wonder why though there was blood on a carpet rolled up and hidden in the garage?
That has to come into play.

 

[arielilane]

Did I also hear her say that at one point after the fire that all four of them were upstairs in the room together? Then Gannon went into the other room? (That might not be what she said)
The jury have already heard Harley testify that she didn't see Gannon that night. I believe she said that Gannon went to Liana's room

I believe she said that Gannon went upstairs to Laina's room for a little bit, and then he went back downstairs to his room. She didn't answer the FBI agent when asked about the time Gannon went back downstairs to his room.
