@KOAA We've been let into the courtroom. So far it's a full gallery. Gannon's family is not here yet. Letecia Stauch's attorneys just walked into the courtroom and patted her on the shoulder.
@KOAA The council is reviewing jury instructions right now. There’s been discussion about a request for instruction on evidence that wasn’t actually presented. From what I’m understanding, I believe this is about the discussed jail visit for Stauch during the beginning of the pandemic.
When Judge Werner asked potential jury members if a trial of that length would cause "undue or extreme hardship", more than half raised their hands.
Work schedules, school, planned vacations, and dependents are the most common reasons why potential jury members say they would experience "undue or extreme hardship" if they had to serve as a jury member. @KRDONC13
Prior to the first potential jury members walking into the courtroom, Letecia Stauch was smiling as she was speaking with one of her defense attorneys.
Since they came in, Stauch has been looking away from all of the potential jurors. Covering her face with her hair. @KRDONC13

Agent Cohen said there was no evidence that #GannonStauch mom Landen Hiott was involved in the disappearance of Gannon. She was also out of state.
#GannonStauch sister Laina was also not involved in the disappearance of Gannon, according to FBI Agent Cohen.
Agent Cohen said #GannonStauch and #LeteciaStauch was inside the home. Harley (Letecia's 17-year-old daughter) went to work at 8 a.m. They don't have evidence that Harley was involved in the murder, according to the agent.
Exhibit 38: Photo of the masterbedroom the southeast corner of the home. A gun was recovered from this bedroom according to Sgt. Hubbell. It was found on top of the dresser. He said this is the room #LeteciaStauch stayed in.
The gun is next to a teddy bear and a photo of #GannonStauch. The DNA taken off the trigger guard and backstrap matched #LeteciaStauch as well as two other men.
Sgt. Hubbell said the examiner believed the bullets had come from the gun that was in the master bedroom. Remember 3 bullets were recovered: 1 in #GannonStauch skull and two inside the pillow.
Corner of the carpet in Gannon's room was exposed to see if there was a saturation. A stain went through the carpet, through the foam and onto the cement. DNA was swabbed and matched #GannonStauch. His bed was removed that covered the stain.
The carpet was stiff to the touch like it had been cleaned up. We are seeing a photo of #GannonStauch bedroom with the bed removed. There are pieces of tap covering the wall to show blood splatter marks, according to Sgt. Hubbell. There is also a stain on the mattress.
The outlet next to #GannonStauch bed also had blood evidence on the it and matched Gannon. Sgt. Hubbell said they got positive hits for blood in the garage, laundry room, stairs to the basement, family room in the basement, storage room, and then towards Gannon room.
BACK IN COURT: #LeteciaStauch continuation of proof evident presumption great hearing. FIFTH WITNESS: Sgt. Rosario Hubbell with @EPCSheriff He has worked with EPSO for 14 years. He works with the Major Crime Unit and overviews the case as it unfolds.
Sgt. Hubbell became involved in the case on Jan. 28 when Fountain PD asked if they needed assistance. He confirms this missing person report evolved into a homicide investigation. #LeteciaStauch phone had photos of #GannonStauch in bed. Exhibit 29-39
On Jan. 27 at 8:14 a.m. the photo shows #GannonStauch laying in bed (taken from bedroom entrance). At 8:17 a.m. another photo is shown of Gannon laying in bed from a different angle (foot of the bed). @FOX21News

Sgt. Rozario Hubbell with @EPCSheriff takes the stand. Been with the office for 14 years.
FOURTH WITNESS: Lt. John Sarkisian with @EPCSheriff was leading many of the searches for #GannonStauch from Jan. 31 - late Feb. Drones, 4-wheelers, horses, prodding poles, K-9's, any tools available they were using. At one point, Parks and Wildlife came out to use sonar.
Some days 20-30 searchers other days over a hundred, according to Lt. Sarkisian. They had to use prodding poles because the snow was soo thick in the area north of Palmer Lake to search for #GannonStauch.
Started search around #GannonStauch home around Lorson Ranch then went to Fountain Creek and North of Palmer Lake. Lt. Sarkisian said they were getting information from #LeteciaStauch vehicle tracker data.
THIRD WITNESS: Sgt. Patrick Younkin with @EPCSheriff was one of the first LE to respond to the call for service in regards to a runaway on Jan. 27 at 6:55 p.m. He searched the home for #GannonStauch
He first talked with #LeteciaStauch in the garage and then the first level of the home. We are now watching the body warn camera of Sgt. Younkin.
You can hear #LeteciaStauch talk with deputies as another deputy is searching the home. She is explaining #GannonStauch typical movements in a day. She said he was going to leave to go to a friends house to play video games but didn't know the exact time he left. @FOX21News
BACK FROM BREAK: Investigator Clark said that there was a warrant on the rental Nissan Altima. Also, #LeteciaStauch appeared on camera in an interview with @Spencer_WNews on Friday, January 31, 2020.
The GPS tracker on #LeteciaStauch Aunt's rental shows the car went back to the area in Douglas County after an interview with the local TV station. The car was visible when Stauch was on camera.
COMPARISON OF MAPS: Tuesday, Jan. 28 of #LeteciaStauch VW Tiguan and Friday, Jan. 31 of her aunt's rental Nissan on Hwy 105/Prarie park road. Inv. Clark said the Tiguan data is more detailed than the GPS tracker.
Both the prosecutors and the defense attorneys have walked into the courtroom in El Paso County. Day 1 of #LeteciaStauch preliminary hearing begins soon. The family of #GannonStauch also just walked into the courtroom.

Morning folks.
We’re about 15 mins from the expected start of the #LeteciaStauch preliminary hearing. We know these things run late often, so we’ll see when it actually kicks off.
Mostly just me and a few other reporters sitting outside the locked courtroom right now.

Mr. Tolini has entered the courtroom. He's the "newly" appointed defense attorney for #LeteciaStauch after the whole fiasco earlier with her representing herself, then backing out.
He was given the mighty task of starting from scratch earlier this year on the case.

We just watched @4thJudicialDA and his team walk in too. Both attorneys are now in the courtroom, but doors for reporters haven’t opened yet.
Expect a delayed start.

STAUCH HEARING: Made it to El Paso County. Waiting for the court room to open for today’s hearing. I will post all live updates here today. @KDVR
Looking at the witness list for this preliminary hearing, it says that Letecia's daughter, Harley, could be called up.
@KDVR Made it in the courtroom, Gannon's biological family is here.
I’m heading to #LeteciaStauch’s preliminary hearing, where prosecutors must prove to the judge there’s enough evidence to take the case to trial.
She’s accused of killing her 11-year-old stepson, #GannonStauch, on Jan. 27, 2020. @KOAA

The preliminary hearing has been pushed back several times; it was originally scheduled for mid-March, before #Stauch waived her right to counsel and decided to represent herself. She then reversed that decision, and will now be represented by Josh Tolini.
@KOAA
@KOAA
While #Stauch was representing herself, the prosecution released their witness list for the preliminary hearing.
Out of the seven names listed, five are from the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, and one is from the FBI. Harley Hunt, Stauch's daughter, is also on the list.

A lot to talk about after going through the 32 pages of the arrest affidavit for #LeteciaStauch, here's a full breakdown of what we learned.
It's important to note, this was filed BEFORE they found #GannonStauch's body in Pace, Florida.
This will be a long thread (1/?)

The report is filed by the @EPCSheriff, and broken up into different segments to help keep the timeline in order. I'll be doing the same to keep the story on track.
We start with the fact that in those tips to investigators, someone subbmited a randsom note for Gannon...

asking for bitcoin. They were not able to track down the person who submitted the note, but that is absolutley disgusting.
*The initail report*
