HAPPENING TODAY: Judge to decide whether Letecia Stauch case will go to trial

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Thursday morning a judge will decide if the case against Letecia Stauch will go to trial.

Stauch is accused of murdering her 11-year-old stepson Gannon Stauch.

Gannon was reported missing in January 2020. At first, Stauch said her stepson went to play at a friend’s house and did not return. Then, after weeks of searching in Colorado Springs, his remains were found in Florida. According to investigators, Gannon had been shot and stabbed multiple times.

Stauch’s status hearing is set for 9 a.m. with Judge Gregory Werner. FOX21’s Lauren Scharf will be at the hearing and will provide updates via Twitter.
