LETECIA LYNN STAUCH

2020CR1358, 4th Judicial District, Judge Gregory Werner

Letecia Stauch killed her 11-year old stepson on January 27, 2020 in the basement of the blended family's Colorado home while his father was out of town on government business and his younger sister was at school. Letecia's teenage daughter was working outside of the home at the time of Gannon's murder.

Gannon Stauch was drugged, burned, beaten, gaslit, stabbed eighteen times, shot in the face, and then stuffed inside a suitcase and driven across the country in the back of a moving van before his body was eventually tossed over the side of a bridge in Florida, like garbage.

Letecia eventually claimed to suffer Dissociative Identity Disorder and changed her official plea from Not Guilty to Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity. The jury found Letecia Stauch guilty on all counts.
