El Paso County, Colorado.

Eleven-year-old Gannon Stauch was reported missing by his stepmother, Letecia. She claimed he had gone to a friend’s house. But no one saw him leave, and no camera captured him on the street.

The search began with deputies, helicopters, and hundreds of volunteers combing fields and trails. Flyers with Gannon’s face were posted across the state. His father returned from National Guard duty and begged for answers.

But while the community searched, investigators uncovered blood evidence inside the home. Letecia’s story shifted again and again. And then, two months later, the horrifying truth emerged in Florida...a suitcase pulled from the water, with Gannon’s remains inside.

This is the story of betrayal, brutality, and justice.
The case that left a community shattered.
