Having a premature baby and hoping with everything in you that the baby will live and then have that baby to be murdered as a young child by someone you thought you could trust is absolutely atrocious.. smh.
That's the part that crushes my soul. Born at 22oz. He was a miracle baby. He was here for a reason, and that stepmonster deprived Gannon-- and the world-- of that miracle
She’s admitted she did it but claims she was insane or is insane, yet deemed competent to attend trial. This should be easy for the jury to send her to jail. The fact that she is putting everyone through this shows she knows what she’s doing.
I agree. She has been deemed competent multiple times and how anyine can examine her years later and state she was insane at the time of the murder mates zero sense to me. I rarely believe someone us evil- but she is, along with Ted Bundy. The tape played of her torturing gannon over a spillage of something prices to me she was sane but evil at the time of the murder. It broke my heart 😥 💔
Sane people do not murder. Yes, she is insane but that has nothing to do with competency. Being insane also is not a get out of jail ticket. Insane murderers like her should not be free among us. She should be packed away and the key thrown away!
The father goes to serve the people and the witch decides to kill her stepson. She taunted, victimized and then killed his son and in turn destroyed this fathers life. This was so horrific!!

It’s terrifying to comprehend the evil that lives amongst us tbh . Makes me sick to my stomach to truly understand that this is our reality . Once upon a time we didn’t have internet.. so we had no way of knowing how cruel and evil people are ! I lost a child , which is the hardest , most painful experience for a parent to comprehend, but to have your baby murdered is something very very different. So very sad 😢
@Anonymous Lee This is absolutely NOT anyone's fault but the evil b**** that killed him. They trusted her. The little sister said she never seen anything. If she didn't want to take care of she should have walked away.
Oh don't let the father off the hook. He put him in this situation. He lived in the same house and didn't know she was abusing him. Not good enough. Crocodile tears
Actually him talking mKes me sick to the stomach. He was terrible to the mother they took the boy from her and killed him. Why isn't he made accountable. He's lied already he had an affair . He's just as guilty
The parents are the ones that are responsible to keep their children save. I doubt this woman killed the boy because one day she decided to kill him. The father should’ve thought about him before his hot pants.
What is worse about these crimes Is that it's bad enough to kill a child, it's vile that they don't just plead guilty and avoid the further trauma and heartache of a trial(not to mention the costs!)
I kept thinking about that today. Instead of just admitting guilt and taking the punishment, she STILL insists on taking up more time and torturing the family. When the defense said in his opening statement that yes, she did this... But she wasn't killing Gannon, she was killing the demons of her past, I thought I was going to be sick. She's repulsive.

Why is she (Latricia) hiding in the corner, behind a computer? She ISN’T insane. She’s a coward who knows she’s hated. She can’t bare to be seen because she’s ashamed of what she did to that poor boy. She must of hated little Gannon? Stabbing, shooting and bludgeoned in the head? That’s overkill. The thing I want to know is, WHY? What could this boy have done for her to do what she did? I don’t understand. Imagine his parents having to live with what Gannon went through. Evil, just evil.
Every time I hear about the candle spill, it gives me the chills. I feel like she burnt him with candle wax and that's why she mentioned it. She spoke about the blisters, etc. Why else would she be specific? I feel like it's part of her confessions but blaming the child. She is evil. She must have been abusing him prior to this. This doesn't sound like a spur of the moment. "She will pay 100% for these hanous acts," in the words of Gannon's mom. RIP sweet boy. 🙏
@flowerpower3618 I think the big question is, how could the father not realize that there was a heartless killer right in his home. He will have to live with this for the rest of his life.
I think she tried to kill him in a house fire and make it look like an accident. He is the one who put the fire out and got burned in the process. She then manipulated him into believing he started the fire. She realized when Al found out she would lose everything and had to find another way to end his life. She hated him and always loved to play to victim and what is worth than losing a child in a horrific way? She would be able to bring it up constantly and gain sympathy. Sick disgusting evil woman.
This was heartbreaking. I had to turn off the part with the last recording of Gannon. How could she do this?? I don’t believe for a second that she didn’t know what she was doing.
She knew what she was doing! She shot Gannon, stabbed him and than bludgeoned him in the head. She had the celerity to make sure he was dead. She had the forethought to hide his body in a suitcase, clean the blood (tried) and drove Gannon all the way to Florida. Yep, she knew exactly what she was doing. She is evil and the things nightmares are made up. She’s the real life wicked stepmother times 100.
@@rachelwyatt6030 oh man, I had no idea it existed. I heard it the other day and it destroyed me. I wanted to save him so bad!! Ugh I wish I could unhear it!!
Awe having him be born so tiny, what a fighter and he fought for his life when she attacked him, he had many defense wounds, the fact that she could look a small child in the face & do this, admittedly I hope & feel confident the jury will get this one right😔💔 rest in peace sweet baby Gannon ✝️🕊️
I'm so tired of the "I was abused as a child so that's why I killed, burned, raped or whatever to another" But I know it was bad so I'll hide it cuz I will go to jail or get the death penalty. She chose to harm and kill this child because she's a narcissist who was mad and jealous of whatever with her husband. She knew to hide her face from public when doing a interview saying the public would have to apologize to her because they where blaming her for something she didn't do. She made up more stories. I hope she finds karma and the sooner the better and I hope it is a slow long payment for what she did to that little boy and his family.
She knew what she did. She went on TV and talked about how every one was blaming her and she wanted an apology. She will have to explain how her DID comes and goes when she wants it to!!! Sure lady! You are going to hell. He was a sweet little boy. You were doing research on your computer. FACTUAL EVIDENCE DOESN’T LIE, you devil 👿
I think she blamed Gannon for Al being gone so much. She felt resentful about taking care of his kids. Crazy lady. Make sure you know what your signing up for before you marry someone and don’t take it out on the poor innocent kids
This one really breaks me up. Did anyone else fall in love with this obviously darling child - a light snuffed out by the dark shadow that entered his life as his “care” taker. She has to be one of the worst examples of humanity on Earth.
Agree! This sweet boy reminded me so much of my own son, and of course, I feel my son is a super sweet boy as well, and from what I can see, so was Gannon. I hope he can look down and know that so many of us love and support him.
so hard for me to listen Gannon's dad testifying about the killer as WE and calling her Letsy and the fact that THEY moved out because of what happened with Gannon in January , like an event, not like the time Evil killed her son, ... its beyond my comprehension. 🙏❣️🙏
Three years ago. Unbelievable to me because it feels like within a year. Learning of what she did is horrific enough, but now knowing exactly what Gannon endured is debilitating. Rest in peace and love, Gannon and so much love and prayers to his Mother, Dad, Sister and all of the loved ones, and Gannon 💙💌🙏🙏🙏💌💝
I listened to everything today. She is truly a narcissist. She never, ever claims to even miss Gannon... Only talks about herself! That long phonecall was so telling. 😡
Gannon is 3 months older than my first born, a son. I cannot imagine. From the very beginning of this all I could think about is that that poor baby was the exact same age as my baby. I hope she never leaves prison
@@user-jc8py7dw7r Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell Matthew 10;28
I think if I remember rightly that due to a health issue, the biological mother was practically bed bound, so the kids went to live with the dad whilst she was recovering. Something like that
I think dad testified that her and her current boyfriend at the time had drug problems I may have misunderstood but I think he said that I just did a little research it wasn't easy they don't want to say Landen had a drug problem but I dug deep and there was an article on Google that said Gannons mom had a drug problem and an abusive boyfriend and a high risk pregnancy so the children were with dad
I can't imagine the pain this poor man deals with. How he had strength & courage to testify for his son is super human! Mr. Staunch, I'll keep you in my thoughts & prayers. I'm sure there are 1000's of people doing the same. I hope you're able to carry on living a happy & blessed life. That will honor Gannon more than any monument.
Why can't that witch just confess and get a plee deal. Life no parole plus 15 years for desecration of that poor innocent boy. She is making this poor man cry in public and forcing him to think of the horrific 18 stab wounds plus his boy was shot - she did such terrible things that I hope they lock her up and throw away the key! Just give Gannon's mama Landon 5 minutes in a room with Leticia 💪
She just looks evil in the eyes. I can't comprehend killing a kid, much less a person. I hope they throw the book at her. Her trying to escape when she was arrested and all her crazy BS. I feel so much empathy for the family of Gannon. He seemed like such a sweet boy who had a rough start in life only to be taken in such a horrific way. 💙💙💙
Men and women meet their respective partners, leave their children with them and no questions asked, they need to realise just because that's their partner they chose, they shouldn't be forced upon their children. Too many "step parents" "boyfriends" " girlfriends" have too much say in the lives of these children that are not theirs and would never love and care for them like a biological parent would. Just because you "love" someone doesn't mean your children do or should!!
Of the millions and millions of good step parents all over the world we sadly only hear about the bad/evil step parents as that's what makes headlines. These people don't make up the majority. Yes parents needs to be cautious and vigilant but sadly even biological parents murder or harm their kids.
Completely agree! I told my kids they were worth everything to me. Men come and go but they are my children. I chose my new partner after falling in love, they didn't. Everything went thru me. I was physically, morally and financially responsible for them.
I understand what you are saying and it definitely happens quite a bit. BUT that wasn’t the situation here. Leticia was actually the biological mothers friend for years prior to getting with Gannons dad.
These divorced or separated people have a lot of responsibility for who they allow into their children's lives. Read the statistics for the murder and abuse of these innocent children..they are the real sufferers in all of this trauma. Marriage is a serious business with serious consequences when it breaks down!!.
I was raised in a very volatile alcoholic family.. I can’t and never have spanked my daughter, I couldn’t hurt a child. This woman took her revenge on an innocent child because his Father was having an affair like he did with Leticia, I do agree nothing mitigate’s what this woman has done, be very wary who you let into your family. 🕯🕊RIP GANNON Healing light Landon and Al
This woman Leticia* took her revenge on an innocent child because his father was having an affair like he did with *Landen (Gannon’s BIOLOGICAL MOTHER).
@@ladybugelle6065 Exactly! If she knew her husband was having an affair she should have confronted him and told him to come get his kids so she could leave.
This is why marriage used to be 'til death do us part'. Few stepmothers/stepfathers kill their stepchildren, but they certainly, in general, have less feeling for and interest in them as their parents do.
She was in the court room. She was in the right hand corner of the screen in blue and her greasy black hair. She is actually sitting against the wall to the left (our right) of her attys.
@@MilaB1111 she's a number by herself. I think they all failed him. I live 2 minutes away from jail where that monster was locked up in. Actually I can see it through the trees. Grim reminder every day what evil lives among us.
@@MilaB1111 plenty times i wanted to schedule a visit, to put it to her, but she's not worth the time. I did help looking for that lil boy in Garden of The Gods. Authorities believed she hid Gannon there first. Terrible
How can she claim insanity? She knew right from wrong to rent a Kia, come up with lie after lie to her husband and Police. She knew right from wrong to try and clean up the evidence. She was in her right mind to know right from wrong in hiding Gannon's body. She knew to get rid of his gaming system. You cannot possibly believe she was insane. She is a professional master manipulator pathological liar. She also worked with children. She is Not insane.
Omg 😳 please dear God Bless this family!!! They don't deserve THIS!!! I want to send hugs to mom and dad and the whole family!¡! I'm so sorry for your loss. He's definitely an Angel in heaven now!!!! 😭 🙏❤️🥺
Parents need to be extremely careful about who they're bringing into their kids' lives. The time to chase drama and prioritize... the physical aspects... should end once you become a mother/father.
Omg poor child literally suffered from the day he was born. And survived so much only to have his beautiful innocent little life taken away. Oh my god I hope she gets hers when she goes to prison. She’s not insane. People that are genuinely insane don’t kill someone’s and then hide the body and lie about it. Their brains are meant to process that way
May this dear little boy RIP. What a shame he came to this cruel end. 😢 ❤ l lb 6 oz fought to survive only to die at the hands of a cruel jealous woman. Abominable.

He would be the exact age of my son. My son was born in January 2009. If he was born is Sept but he was 4 months early in sounds like he was due in Jan. Knowing how amazing my son is at 14, almost man like in stature but still so young and in need of his mama. The thought of someone hurting him just breaks my heart. I cannot fathom why anyone would hurt anyone much less their child!! When you marry someone you vow to love and respect their flesh and blood since in marriage you become one flesh!!!! This case makes me cry so hard!
Isn't this where people say he should've chosen his partner right and she should take blame too because he brought her in his children's life the way they do mothers with children who were murdered by their step fathers.
It breaks me when I think about how terrified little Gannon was when that beast killed him. She probably terrorized him verbally for hours before stabbing, shooting and choking him. Did she stab and let him suffer, then stab again? Choke him then revive him to do it again?
My gawdddd. My heart breaks. I can NOT imagine. I’m actually crying writing this. Sending b so much love to this young man’s father and family. RIParidise Gannon💙☀️🌱🙏🏻
Preys this beautiful boy gets justice he fought hard to be here when he was born only for a stepmother who should've loved him to end his life so young RIP GANNON
Does anyone else believe that Al is partially responsible for leaving his children in her care? This lady is clearly a manipulative compulsive liar. . If I were Gavin’s mother I do not know if I could forgive him.
When i hear this dad say that Gannon was just over a lb could probably fit in the palm of his hand and fought the great fight a miracle that he survived only for this monster to take this beautiful boy makes me sick to my stomach bless you sweet Gannon
it's just unbelievable what this woman put Alfred through. not only killing his son, but hours and hours and weeks and weeks of frustrating phone calls in which she circles EVERYTHING back to herself, doesn't answer a single question, shouts the entire time in a grating awful voice, shows zero empathy or compassion for him, and just vomits lies after lies, endlessly. how he managed to hold it together for almost all of those calls to try and get information out of her- he should get a medal for patience and self-control. these calls are just unbearable to listen to. Leticia is the worst woman ever.
i also find it very hard to understand what he ever saw in her. he obviously didn't know her at all and just fell for her physical attributes (which don't seem to exist any longer, she looks hideous)
It's heartbreaking listening to this dad 😢 I do not cry easily, but this made me so sad. Imagine leaving your child with your partner you trust to have this happen?!
@@j4kgang921 the dad was certainly no saint, and maybe he's not too bright, but still... I doubt he knew how evil she was. He never expected her to abuse and kill an innocent child. That b*tch most likely manipulated him just enough so she could seek her revenge.
My grandson is the same age Gannon would be. They resemble each other a lot, especially their smiles and voices. I think it's hard for parents to not think of their own kids and personalize what happened to this poor child at the hands of someone who was trusted to love and care for him. It's beyond heartbreaking.
@@witchofthewildwoods3496 this is so sad. It was heartbreaking when the bridge worker who found the suitcase testified, he said he saw little feet with little football socks on.
She’s all the way to our RIGHT looking at the screen. She’s a coward and would rather hide. She should have been forced to sit in between her attorneys. She’s an evil evil witch
This story destroyed my heart in 2020. We all prayed he would be found safe. Thank God Gannon is with Jesus and his family will see him again. If you don’t believe in hell, look into the eyes of the stepmom.
it's extremely difficult to get thru this trial I have almost 13 years old son and I couldn't stop crying for this precious child how why what is wrong with her please God forgive me for what I'm able to say I hope and pray that she get exactly what she did to this baby every single day she spent in prison he should be here he's supposed to be here I can't believe this is happening ours babies are ours future
I don't know if it was said in the States opening or later in the testimony. They didn't hear or missed what Gannon said when Leticia recorded herself telling Gannon how she'll have to sell the couch or other items to replace the burnt carpet. Gannon was crying & replied I'm worried about my burns! However Leticia cut him off hoping what Gannon said about his burns weren't heard. I could clearly hear it watching & listening this on my cell phone with an ear piece. I believe they mis- quoted what Gannon truly said & I hope someone rectifies the mistake! 😢💔 🇨🇦
As the mom of a little boy. This whole situation just breaks my heart. I don't understand how any woman who's experienced motherhood could ever hurt a child especially a child of someone you supposedly loved. This woman may she rott in hell. I hope she is Beat to death in jail by the inmates that are in there longing to be with their kids. It hurts to imagine the pain he experienced. He is in a better place now may he rest in peace and may he get justice

@@katiechiatovich8821 you may be right! I never thought of that. 😢
This was heartbreaking. I had to turn off the part with the last recording of Gannon. How could she do this?? I don’t believe for a second that she didn’t know what she was doing.
I couldn't listen to it either and I can't stop crying. I don't know how anyone could do this, least of all a mother.
She is competent to stand trail and her flimsy defense of “insanity” won’t stand. I can’t wait to see her get the death penalty
She knew what she was doing! She shot Gannon, stabbed him and than bludgeoned him in the head. She had the celerity to make sure he was dead. She had the forethought to hide his body in a suitcase, clean the blood (tried) and drove Gannon all the way to Florida. Yep, she knew exactly what she was doing. She is evil and the things nightmares are made up. She’s the real life wicked stepmother times 100.
When I heard the candle video a few years ago, I swear it traumatized me for months. This lady is so evil and sick
@@rachelwyatt6030 oh man, I had no idea it existed. I heard it the other day and it destroyed me. I wanted to save him so bad!! Ugh I wish I could unhear it!!
I can’t believe she’s actually pleading not guilty … by reason of insanity. This woman has no shame. Lock her up for the rest of her life.
Awe having him be born so tiny, what a fighter and he fought for his life when she attacked him, he had many defense wounds, the fact that she could look a small child in the face & do this, admittedly I hope & feel confident the jury will get this one right😔💔 rest in peace sweet baby Gannon ✝️🕊️
I'm so tired of the "I was abused as a child so that's why I killed, burned, raped or whatever to another" But I know it was bad so I'll hide it cuz I will go to jail or get the death penalty. She chose to harm and kill this child because she's a narcissist who was mad and jealous of whatever with her husband. She knew to hide her face from public when doing a interview saying the public would have to apologize to her because they where blaming her for something she didn't do. She made up more stories. I hope she finds karma and the sooner the better and I hope it is a slow long payment for what she did to that little boy and his family.
There is no excuse for this and this case deserves a capital punishment sentence if I've seen one !!
She knew what she did. She went on TV and talked about how every one was blaming her and she wanted an apology. She will have to explain how her DID comes and goes when she wants it to!!! Sure lady! You are going to hell. He was a sweet little boy. You were doing research on your computer. FACTUAL EVIDENCE DOESN’T LIE, you devil 👿
I think she blamed Gannon for Al being gone so much. She felt resentful about taking care of his kids. Crazy lady. Make sure you know what your signing up for before you marry someone and don’t take it out on the poor innocent kids
This one really breaks me up. Did anyone else fall in love with this obviously darling child - a light snuffed out by the dark shadow that entered his life as his “care” taker. She has to be one of the worst examples of humanity on Earth.
I love little Gannon. ♥️
Agree! This sweet boy reminded me so much of my own son, and of course, I feel my son is a super sweet boy as well, and from what I can see, so was Gannon. I hope he can look down and know that so many of us love and support him.
so hard for me to listen Gannon's dad testifying
about the killer as WE and calling her Letsy and the fact that THEY moved out because of what happened with Gannon in January , like an event, not like the time Evil killed her son, ...
its beyond my comprehension.
🙏❣️🙏
after listening his testimony, the only explanation of trusting this Evil is the fact that he was not around his son on regular basis.
🙏❣️🙏
Yea... I think about poor Gannon all the time
Three years ago. Unbelievable to me because it feels like within a year.
Learning of what she did is horrific enough, but now knowing exactly what Gannon endured is debilitating.
Rest in peace and love, Gannon and so much love and prayers to his Mother, Dad, Sister and all of the loved ones, and Gannon 💙💌🙏🙏🙏💌💝
💔 His parents hugged right before he walked up to testify 💔
I listened to everything today. She is truly a narcissist. She never, ever claims to even miss Gannon... Only talks about herself! That long phonecall was so telling. 😡
The camera issue SUCKS! Especially, after watching Alec M case and Gwennie case
Absolutely. Might as well just listen
TOTALLY agree! We've been spoiled.
The cameras layout and sound all rubbish. Can't barely hear counsel
there is a special place in hell for somebody that harms a child 😡
JUDGE: "I can't see it". Don't worry judge, neither can anyone else trying to watch this, but great view of the back wall
Gannon is 3 months older than my first born, a son. I cannot imagine. From the very beginning of this all I could think about is that that poor baby was the exact same age as my baby. I hope she never leaves prison
CO really needs to step up their audio video in their court rooms. 🙄😵💫
It made me so sad to see the little video he made about his favourite game. God bless him and keep him safe x
He died. God didn’t keep him safe, unfortunately.

i don’t get why the real Mother was not caring for her child
I think if I remember rightly that due to a health issue, the biological mother was practically bed bound, so the kids went to live with the dad whilst she was recovering. Something like that
@@sm-qd2bd no dear mom had a drug problem
@Paula Jay where are you getting that from. I cant find that anywhere
@@paulajay473 👀
I think dad testified that her and her current boyfriend at the time had drug problems I may have misunderstood but I think he said that I just did a little research it wasn't easy they don't want to say Landen had a drug problem but I dug deep and there was an article on Google that said Gannons mom had a drug problem and an abusive boyfriend and a high risk pregnancy so the children were with dad
These camera angles are unwatchable. WTF?
I can't imagine the pain this poor man deals with. How he had strength & courage to testify for his son is super human! Mr. Staunch, I'll keep you in my thoughts & prayers. I'm sure there are 1000's of people doing the same. I hope you're able to carry on living a happy & blessed life. That will honor Gannon more than any monument.
Leticia should be made to sit where everyone can see her. She shouldn't have any privileges. Just gives her control., which she should not have any.
He may have requested she sit there. All the other people, she sat there. Notice he isn't addressing her by her name, she's called the defendant.
Why can't that witch just confess and get a plee deal. Life no parole plus 15 years for desecration of that poor innocent boy. She is making this poor man cry in public and forcing him to think of the horrific 18 stab wounds plus his boy was shot - she did such terrible things that I hope they lock her up and throw away the key!
Just give Gannon's mama Landon 5 minutes in a room with Leticia 💪
Yes this!!! Especially the 5 mins for the momma
Dang... 18 stab wounds?? Like whyyy?? Dam
I honestly believe she is loving this, seeing the family hurt because of her is her ultimate goal in her jealousy filled, never wrong mindset.
I wouldn't be able to sit in any room with someone who murdered my kid. I'd have to get hands involved with their face!
Hard to hear the prosecutor keeps cutting out
She just looks evil in the eyes. I can't comprehend killing a kid, much less a person. I hope they throw the book at her. Her trying to escape when she was arrested and all her crazy BS. I feel so much empathy for the family of Gannon. He seemed like such a sweet boy who had a rough start in life only to be taken in such a horrific way. 💙💙💙
Yep the eyes say it all!!
Men and women meet their respective partners, leave their children with them and no questions asked, they need to realise just because that's their partner they chose, they shouldn't be forced upon their children. Too many "step parents" "boyfriends" " girlfriends" have too much say in the lives of these children that are not theirs and would never love and care for them like a biological parent would. Just because you "love" someone doesn't mean your children do or should!!
Of the millions and millions of good step parents all over the world we sadly only hear about the bad/evil step parents as that's what makes headlines. These people don't make up the majority. Yes parents needs to be cautious and vigilant but sadly even biological parents murder or harm their kids.
This is sad you even say this, all kids should be protected protect the innocent whoever doesn't should be put to death
Completely agree!
I told my kids they were worth everything to me.
Men come and go but they are my children.
I chose my new partner after falling in love, they didn't.
Everything went thru me.
I was physically, morally and financially responsible for them.
I understand what you are saying and it definitely happens quite a bit. BUT that wasn’t the situation here. Leticia was actually the biological mothers friend for years prior to getting with Gannons dad.

That makes it even worst

@@carolmiller3585I think it's sweet when it's worded that way.😊
My God this woman looks scary 😨 as in I can't imagine the horror he went through.
These divorced or separated people have a lot of responsibility for who they allow into their children's lives. Read the statistics for the murder and abuse of these innocent children..they are the real sufferers in all of this trauma. Marriage is a serious business with serious consequences when it breaks down!!.
I was raised in a very volatile alcoholic family.. I can’t and never have spanked my daughter, I couldn’t hurt a child.
This woman took her revenge on an innocent child because his Father was having an affair like he did with Leticia, I do agree nothing mitigate’s what this woman has done, be very wary who you let into your family.
🕯🕊RIP GANNON
Healing light Landon and Al
Gives you an idea why he left to have an affair with someone else unfortunately maybe he should have taken the little one with him
This woman Leticia* took her revenge on an innocent child because his father was having an affair like he did with *Landen (Gannon’s BIOLOGICAL MOTHER).
@@ladybugelle6065 Exactly! If she knew her husband was having an affair she should have confronted him and told him to come get his kids so she could leave.
why have kids when your not there for them and you leave them for long periods of time...why leave the kids with someone who isnt family...why
Because both of his parents were a POS
This is why marriage used to be 'til death do us part'. Few stepmothers/stepfathers kill their stepchildren, but they certainly, in general, have less feeling for and interest in them as their parents do.
WHERE is she?? Why is she allowed to dodge the witnesses????????? She has to sit and listen to what she has done!!!
That’s what I’m wondering!! How in the he🏒🏒 is allowed to NOT sit her arse right there!?! Smh
She's on the far right later in the video it pans over and you can see the top of her gross head behind a monitor. They need to zoom at her face.
I don't see her?!
My thoughts too, like oh I don’t want to go and they say that ok!!! She is such a coward that she got out of having to sit there today!!
She was in the court room. She was in the right hand corner of the screen in blue and her greasy black hair. She is actually sitting against the wall to the left (our right) of her attys.
I feel so sorry for that father!!
I can’t imagine his pain, remorse and oh my 😢
Poor guy!!
Don't. Watch all the stuff on this. He was selfish and cared more about his job.

@@MilaB1111 plenty times i wanted to schedule a visit, to put it to her, but she's not worth the time. I did help looking for that lil boy in Garden of The Gods. Authorities believed she hid Gannon there first. Terrible
How can she claim insanity? She knew right from wrong to rent a Kia, come up with lie after lie to her husband and Police. She knew right from wrong to try and clean up the evidence. She was in her right mind to know right from wrong in hiding Gannon's body. She knew to get rid of his gaming system. You cannot possibly believe she was insane. She is a professional master manipulator pathological liar. She also worked with children. She is Not insane.
Nailed it.

Exactly what I was thinking, Marti Reed!
Omg 😳 please dear God Bless this family!!! They don't deserve THIS!!! I want to send hugs to mom and dad and the whole family!¡! I'm so sorry for your loss. He's definitely an Angel in heaven now!!!! 😭 🙏❤️🥺
I couldn’t even make thru the first two minutes hearing Al talk. Absolutely heartbreaking 💔
Parents need to be extremely careful about who they're bringing into their kids' lives. The time to chase drama and prioritize... the physical aspects... should end once you become a mother/father.
Gannon suffered so bad at somebody he trusted I’m not saying she’s a step mom because she isn’t :( rip Gannon 💙
My heart breaks for this man
What is the problem with the audio????
Omg poor child literally suffered from the day he was born. And survived so much only to have his beautiful innocent little life taken away. Oh my god I hope she gets hers when she goes to prison. She’s not insane. People that are genuinely insane don’t kill someone’s and then hide the body and lie about it. Their brains are meant to process that way
She didn't meet the father six months before killing Gannon!!
You can't claim insanity yet have clarity enough to cover your involvement.
Why is the defendant being allowed to hide in corner. She belongs front and center
My God Gannon fought to survive his premature birth only to have this monster take it from him in such a gruesome way....RIP sweet boy.
May this dear little boy RIP. What a shame he came to this cruel end. 😢 ❤ l lb 6 oz fought to survive only to die at the hands of a cruel jealous woman. Abominable.
"That's my boy" 😭😭😭😭 heartbreaking
I’ve always loved Court TV , always up to date with the newest events , and very trustworthy!

God Bless all off you who work TOGEATHER to gather up all the truth also for being reliable to be there and on the newest stories, ❤️🙏🇨🇦
My heart breaks for him. He trusted her to care for Gannon. So evil & so sad
I can't imagine his pain.
He would be the exact age of my son. My son was born in January 2009. If he was born is Sept but he was 4 months early in sounds like he was due in Jan. Knowing how amazing my son is at 14, almost man like in stature but still so young and in need of his mama. The thought of someone hurting him just breaks my heart. I cannot fathom why anyone would hurt anyone much less their child!! When you marry someone you vow to love and respect their flesh and blood since in marriage you become one flesh!!!! This case makes me cry so hard!
Same. My first born, my son, was born in Jan 2009. He’s 14 and such an incredible young man. I can’t imagine..
This is so terrible! How could anyone kill a child?!! Also, how do they get a recording of the phone calls for this or any other trials?
My wee heart is breaking for Gannon's dad right now. 💔
I can not hear the Attorney that is asking questions!
Isn't this where people say he should've chosen his partner right and she should take blame too because he brought her in his children's life the way they do mothers with children who were murdered by their step fathers.
It breaks me when I think about how terrified little Gannon was when that beast killed him. She probably terrorized him verbally for hours before stabbing, shooting and choking him. Did she stab and let him suffer, then stab again? Choke him then revive him to do it again?
I think maybe she did all the stabbing, expecting that to kill him... then as he fought so hard to survive, she shot him.
That is EXACTLY what I wonder.
RIP Gannon. His father is the epitome of strength… I’m certain the jury will do what is right on behalf of this child and the family.
My gawdddd. My heart breaks. I can NOT imagine. I’m actually crying writing this. Sending b so much love to this young man’s father and family. RIParidise Gannon💙☀️🌱🙏🏻
Is Letecia in the court room during Gannon's father's testimony? Were other children in the home when Gannon was murdered?
Preys this beautiful boy gets justice he fought hard to be here when he was born only for a stepmother who should've loved him to end his life so young RIP GANNON
Does anyone else believe that Al is partially responsible for leaving his children in her care?
This lady is clearly a manipulative compulsive liar. . If I were Gavin’s mother I do not know if I could forgive him.
This hurts so bad! My son is ten and also loves the same video games, Pokémon, the switch etc. just an innocent, sweet boy. Praying for justice.
Wow this sweet baby went through so much from day one! This women is a monster.
I love the judges voice
Al is partly responsible for this. If I heard even a fraction of this, I wouldn’t allow that monster anywhere near my children.
The audio in this courtroom are very bad. You can here the witness and the judge but not the attorneys
It's being streamed, that's why the audio and quality socks...
When i hear this dad say that Gannon was just over a lb could probably fit in the palm of his hand and fought the great fight a miracle that he survived only for this monster to take this beautiful boy makes me sick to my stomach bless you sweet Gannon
Only an evil person could ever hurt a child and doesn't deserve to live.
Why can't we hear the lawyer?? Arggggg.....
Gannon’s father served honorably in our military. I hope that once Letecia is convicted that he will find peace.
Gannon sounds so much like my son. They would've been good friends. Rest in Peace Gannon, sweet angel......you did not deserve this.
it's just unbelievable what this woman put Alfred through. not only killing his son, but hours and hours and weeks and weeks of frustrating phone calls in which she circles EVERYTHING back to herself, doesn't answer a single question, shouts the entire time in a grating awful voice, shows zero empathy or compassion for him, and just vomits lies after lies, endlessly. how he managed to hold it together for almost all of those calls to try and get information out of her- he should get a medal for patience and self-control. these calls are just unbearable to listen to. Leticia is the worst woman ever.
i also find it very hard to understand what he ever saw in her. he obviously didn't know her at all and just fell for her physical attributes (which don't seem to exist any longer, she looks hideous)
It's heartbreaking listening to this dad 😢
I do not cry easily, but this made me so sad. Imagine leaving your child with your partner you trust to have this happen?!
His dad was a cheater and left his son alone with a Demon lady
@@j4kgang921 the dad was certainly no saint, and maybe he's not too bright, but still... I doubt he knew how evil she was. He never expected her to abuse and kill an innocent child. That b*tch most likely manipulated him just enough so she could seek her revenge.
@@j4kgang921damn you're a jerk.
Him and my son are exactly 2 weeks apart.
My son was 3 months early. 3 lbs 4 oz.
His son was 4 months early. 1 lb 6 oz.
So sad. I’m so sorry 😞
My grandson is the same age Gannon would be. They resemble each other a lot, especially their smiles and voices. I think it's hard for parents to not think of their own kids and personalize what happened to this poor child at the hands of someone who was trusted to love and care for him. It's beyond heartbreaking.
@@witchofthewildwoods3496 this is so sad.
It was heartbreaking when the bridge worker who found the suitcase testified, he said he saw little feet with little football socks on.
The boy caught her f . Another man.
I am sure it was something
Why don't they show the murderer?
She’s all the way to our RIGHT looking at the screen. She’s a coward and would rather hide. She should have been forced to sit in between her attorneys. She’s an evil evil witch
They found blood under Gannons bed cuz he probably tried to hide under there from the Witch 🙏 ND his blood leaked there
This is heart breaking I can’t watch this trial it’s so bad for me mentally RIP to this sweet boy he didn’t deserve this🙏🙏💔
They were only to together for 6 month before she killed his child I didn’t realise that I hate her even more now that’s so fucked up
No? They got married in 2015. Gannon was murdered in 2020.
He said they were married 5 years.
Yes 5 yrs I believe they were married but I think they were together 6 1/2
Where in the F---- is Letecia? OK to keep her head down? WOW....I'd say that would be contempt of court and a bad defense attorney
This story destroyed my heart in 2020. We all prayed he would be found safe. Thank God Gannon is with Jesus and his family will see him again. If you don’t believe in hell, look into the eyes of the stepmom.
it's extremely difficult to get thru this trial I have almost 13 years old son and I couldn't stop crying for this precious child how why what is wrong with her please God forgive me for what I'm able to say I hope and pray that she get exactly what she did to this baby every single day she spent in prison he should be here he's supposed to be here I can't believe this is happening ours babies are ours future
I don't know if it was said in the States opening or later in the testimony. They didn't hear or missed what Gannon said when Leticia recorded herself telling Gannon how she'll have to sell the couch or other items to replace the burnt carpet. Gannon was crying & replied I'm worried about my burns! However Leticia cut him off hoping what Gannon said about his burns weren't heard. I could clearly hear it watching & listening this on my cell phone with an ear piece. I believe they mis- quoted what Gannon truly said & I hope someone rectifies the mistake! 😢💔 🇨🇦
As the mom of a little boy. This whole situation just breaks my heart. I don't understand how any woman who's experienced motherhood could ever hurt a child especially a child of someone you supposedly loved. This woman may she rott in hell. I hope she is Beat to death in jail by the inmates that are in there longing to be with their kids. It hurts to imagine the pain he experienced. He is in a better place now may he rest in peace and may he get justice
He hooked up with this piece not knowing the danger of bringing someone into your life and your family’s life
Not blaming him, but he would've been better off if he waited until his divorce was finalized from his first wife and waited bit to heal.
“That’s my boy” all I needed to hear
R.I.P beautiful boy. 😢💙🕊
