Back in court this morning for the 11th day of Letecia Stauch's trial, starting the morning off by playing the remainder of the phone call between Al and Letecia Stauch that was started yesterday. I'll tweet updates as the day gets going.
The phone call was similar to the several others that have been played in court where Letecia Stauch continues to deny any involvement in Gannon's disappearance, and Al Stauch continues to press Letecia for the truth.
Prosecution just finished playing the recording of a second phone call between Al and Letecia Stauch. The call is an hour of Al Stauch accusing Letecia of lying, and Letecia yelling in response to deny that she is lying.
The call ends when Al adds FBI agent Amber Cronan to the call and Letecia says she will call her right back. The FBI recorded all phone conversations between Al and Letecia Stauch, and FBI agents were present with Al Stauch during the phone calls.
Third phone call played by the prosecution was between just Letecia Stauch and Amber Cronan. In the call Stauch walks Cronan through the story that there was an intruder in her home who took Gannon and assaulted her. Should be just one more recorded phone call left.
Fourth phone call was more of the same between Al and Letecia Stauch, the call ends when Al tells Letecia "This is the worst f*cking story yet, I’m done with this s*it." Breaking for lunch now, Cronan will retake the witness stand after lunch.
Second witness today is former FBI special agent Jonathan Grusing, who is testifying that he was brought in to listen to one of the phone conversations between Al and Letecia Stauch, and give advice on how best to interact with Letecia moving forward.
Grusing stated he believed by not accusing Letecia of killing Gannon that she would continue to speak with Al and law enforcement, and give additional information.
"Our best source to figure out what happened to Gannon was to keep speaking with Letecia," Grusing stated.
The prosecution has a played a few more recorded phone calls over the past couple of hours. In the calls, Al Stauch continues to accuse Letecia of lying to him, and Letecia continues to deny lying, and deny involvement in Gannon's death.
In the calls Letecia continues to change her story over and over again while yelling about how she's upset that Al isn't supporting her and how people don't believe her, among many other things. Letecia mentions Gannon few times, if ever, during these calls.
Recess break until 3:25 pm MT
