Murder Uncut, 17 April 2024, Sky Crime, “The Step Mom”
In this episode of Murder Uncut, viewers will be presented with a chilling account of the case involving Letecia Stauch, who reported her 11-year-old stepson, Gannon Stauch, missing in January 2020. However, a gruesome discovery revealed that Letecia was responsible for the boy’s murder and the subsequent disposal of his body in a suitcase.
The episode, “The Step Mom,” airing on Sky Crime on Wednesday 17 April, examines the disturbing details of the case, including Letecia’s initial report of Gannon’s disappearance and the eventual uncovering of her deceit. Letecia’s actions led to a trial where she was found guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The investigation uncovered that Letecia had a history of mental health issues and childhood abuse, leading to claims of an insanity defence. However, the prosecution argued that her extensive efforts to cover up the crime, including cleaning the crime scene and hiding Gannon’s body, demonstrated her sanity and deliberate actions.
The case gained national attention, with Gannon’s parents making an emotional plea for his safe return during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. The trial was delayed due to the pandemic and questions about Letecia’s mental competency.
Letecia Stauch’s actions shocked the nation, and the episode will provide a detailed account of the investigation, the impact on Gannon’s family, and the pursuit of justice.
Murder Uncut airs on Sky Crime at 9:00 PM on Wednesday, 17 April 2024.
