OMG that is my daughter's first husband!
She said she wont marry anyone else..

Well, she's got stiff competition, (IMO) Sherrie was great on the stand.

I'm linking this article because I find it interesting, particularly the parts about sadism, which I find relevant to this case. T seems to derive perverse satisfaction from inflicting pain.

Listening to her phone calls, this is a woman who murdered a child in a sustained attack and then attempts to elicit an apology from that child's father, for showing a united front publicly with the child's mother. That is gaslighting on a superspicious level. It's mind-boggling. Mind-defying that people like this exist, people who can kill without remorse while expecting apologies for perceived (not even real) (and if they were real, minor) slights.

My heart hurts for Gannon. A micro preemie who fought the odds... who survived an attack to his mouth and nose, severe burns, a possible overdose, a head injury resulting in a cracked skull -- was it four blunt force traumas? -- 18 stab wounds, succumbing only to a gunshot. Why, Tecia, are you doing this? Words that haunt my sleep.

Maybe it's good that I'll never fully understand it.

@Curious Me, your 2nd post captured some of what caller conveyed to RA. Take care of yourself.

Here is the rest of it:

2:29 time stamp
This person attends trial periodically. The back of her hair looks almost balding. The book that she is reading is the Bible. The big black binder is labeled FBI Stauch. One day I waited for her to leave and she looked back at me and her cheeks are very chubby, eyes are dark and soulless. A bailiff sits behind (podium) her and never takes his eyes off of her.
Moo

Thanks for this. I suspected the woman dressed in street clothes seated behind LS was probably a bailiff assigned to guard her. There was a similar bailiff seated in the gallery behind Alec Murdaugh during his trial.

Listening to Dr. Ken Kinsey's recent interview actually brought me some comfort with Gannon's murder.

In his calm, easy voice, he explained that unless there are witnesses, we won't ever know what actually happened because only the killer knows and they are not ever telling.

They might tease us with bits of information but killers are also good liars that are only sorry they got caught. That's definitely LS. She's going to her grave with this knowledge and will forever be angry that Gannon was recovered.

No body, no crime, was her ace in the hole. And she lost.

Part 1: Dr. Kenneth Kinsey answers questions on Murdaugh trial

During hours spent on the stand in the murder trial of Alex Murdaugh, crime scene expert Dr. Kenneth Kinsey captivated jurors and audiences with his testimony.

She said ,if she has to wait ,she will.

Cool about the shock belt. This judge isn't playing.

I really want to see her shocked by her own belt.

I guess , I was inferring that his digestive issues were noticed before his ADHD . And apply that inference with my own thoughts and experiences on my kids issues and in my mom brain ..things sound kinda wrong. Wrong med.. for that kid... so is this really about her drug habits?

The side effects are very individual, as they are in most medications. Doctors try to work with all pathologies and tweak/change medications to mitigate any side effects. They will only continue with a medication that causes side effects if the gain from the medication outweighs the side effects. It is also possible the stomach problems had nothing to do with the ADHD medication and were there before and regardless.

These screenshots are from day 1, opening statements. I always watch through WebEx and in the beginning before they worked out the kinks, it was great because they didn’t cut the feed right away when Judge called a recess and I got to see LS being cuffed.

A female uniformed Deputy would cuff and uncuff her and the bald headed young man in the suit in the middle of the screen would always be standing next to the Deputy. So he is definitely there in some bailiff /court security capacity.

Thank you @Megnut for the article. i agree, the article seems to be describing T to a T.
short quote from the article “findings indicate that malicious envy and narcissistic rivalry are the characteristics that connect sadism to grandiose narcissism.” Plenty of malicious envy regarding T. The rivalry she created in her head, much like the different “imaginary perps” she has blamed for Gannon‘s demise.

This is the first case I started following on WS. It was Gannon that drew me in. i knew people like T exist, I’d just never seen them with my own 2 eyes. Quite scary that she seemed to function somewhat normal in life until January 2020! What she did to that poor child I really don’t want to know. It’s too painful. To see her complete lack of remorse or regret is unimaginable to me. She is the DEVIL in flesh I’m convinced.

All MOO here.

Excellent article to describe some of what we've seen. You get it, @Megnut. That's why I mentioned it before. I've seen it before. Malignant narcissism has an element of envy and spite fueling it. Wherein, if the narcissist sees happiness that they envy, you can bet they'll zero in on destroying it if they can. They take pleasure in it, as it makes them feel powerful. It feeds them and satisfies something nasty in their psychological make-up.

Letecia definitely enjoyed making Albert squirm to get answers or a straight story from her. She was cruel about it and enjoyed it so much she kept it going for a long time. She also was so envious of Landen, her rival, and Letecia knew just what she could do to bring great sorrow to both parents.

So...LS's shoes have Gannon's blood on the outer sole, and LS's blood on the insole. Wow.

Was it her foot that was injured?!

Digestive issues can be CAUSED by ADHD also, so maybe treating the ADHD in some situations is more beneficial and prioritized.

I believe that OP misinterpreted DNA for blood.

It was stated that Gannon’s blood was found on the bottom outside of the shoe. And Letecia DNA was detected on the inside of the shoe. I believe they said the DNA was from skin cells. JMO

Digestive issues trump ADHD issues . Everytime. IMO . You never want to put any behavior treatment over nutrition. We need healthy lunatics .I really , Sourced from an intensive ,develop an opinion based on life points program . just halfway joking ..However...Food is kinda real important.

ADHD is such more than just a behavior issue though, and some people need medication to be able to function, it's such an individual thing.
Of course you are right, healthy digestion is important, but sonis mental health and if you have a condition that adversely affects your mental health, or if your child does, then in some cases the mental health must trump the digestive issues.
I think if it's in the child's best interest to help them to be happy and fulfilled then the medication is worth it, but if its just take the parents life easier then NO, absolutely not!.

Here for Gannon even if I'm not posting much. Too heartbreaking to hear some of this stuff, so thanks to all of you who keep us updated.

[cujenn81]

Listening to the TS interview with Grusing and hearing her say that at the end of all of this she will never have to work another job made me almost hurl. I know she was referring to some wild idea that she would win some lawsuit. But, I keep thinking that she won't work another day in her life because she will be in prison for life..... if it wasn't so tragic for Gannon and his loved ones, it would feel relieving and a little pleasurable for me. Justice for Gannon!

Oh, she’ll be working… for less than a dollar an hour with the Colorado Department of Corrections. I wish she’d be doing grunt work for the rest of her miserable life, but I think they assign inmate positions based on education and experience. I’d once hoped that Tammy Moorer would be given a Cinderella job, but she somehow managed to score a position in the warden’s office FFS! That just seems way too cushy of a job for me. I need both of these women collecting garbage, or cleaning toilets, or serving slop or something worse that I’m not even aware of.

Also here for Gannon though I have a doctors appointment this morning so will be a little bit behind.

May I tell y’all what my youngest son did yesterday? He’s been a nervous wreck ever since he got a jury summons in the mail last month. I kept telling him not to worry. I got one several years ago and I went to court for nothing. The case was settled and it was a civil case. Anyways, he went yesterday morning and was juror #3 out of 28 and his turned out to be a criminal case for sexual abuse of a minor. He answered questions all morning. He’s a nervous type but very honest, hard working with no criminal record. At the end, they called him back up there and asked him if he knew anyone that had been abused in that way. He said no, which was a lie. I know why he did but it still very much surprised me. I guess he didn’t want reminded of my own familial childhood abuse. He was excused and he came home very relieved but didn’t want to talk about it. He and his brother take care of us as neither of us can be left alone anymore. I’m so glad he wasn’t chosen. It would certainly have taken its toll on all of us. I hate that my struggles within my own life have affected my children so much that it would seep out into another generation. Such is Life and the beat goes on…
