Welcome to It's A Crime, I'm Linda and today we're going to be talking about Tecia's
day in court that happened on Wednesday March the 11th I'm also going to talk a
little bit about how Alf filed for divorce and also a beautiful Gannon
tribute and a few other things but before I get started if you want to be

subscribe button and hit that notification bell so you could be
notified of my next upcoming videos there is going to be a lot of them also
like this video if you support it and share it out where you can with that
being said let's get into it so here's what went down in court the judge opened
with saying it's the digital age but if anybody is getting caught with recording
audio video or anything like that that they're going to be booted from the room
then they talked about there being over 107 search warrants and senior deputy
district attorney Michael Allen said that there is possibly more than 107 but
as of last week that's what the count was at and these are from mostly
Colorado with a little bit being from South Carolina and then the judge spoke
and he talked about the affidavit to be released to the defense and the defense
says well we would like them a mail dand then they said yeah okay that's no
problem so the next court date is going to be set for Tuesday April 14th at 3
p.m. and tisha will be attending they were talking about the discovery being
over 1,000 pages and the judge said that there needs to be some serious
redactions because there's data births on there and all kinds of data and
Michael Allen talked about how there's going to be a separate section for the
warrants the judge also went on to talk about no expanded media coverage of
pretrial hearings in criminal cases except in advisement and arraignments
and he talked about April 14th and there's no expanded media coverage
allowed due to rule he also mentioned that it would be helpful if they don't
file motions for it will be rejected and cannot be granted by rule that's the
gist of what happened in the courtroom now here are some of my observations
Teesha coward the whole time and she stayed covered the whole time with a
tiny bit of exceptions and I'll show you a little bit of the clips but for the
first time we see tisha in a little bit of a different demeanor and it's almost
and I do stress almost it's almost like oh crap I'm not going to get away with
this now let's talk about her lime outfit of the day I saw a post by Ashley
Franco who is a reporter for KK TV and she was talking to the sheriff's office
and got confirmation about this lime outfit she does note in her post that
they won't specifically talk about what classification Leticia actually is under
but gives what it means in general terms and I'm going to read this for you this
is called a transition jumpsuit and is designed to provide quick identification
so staff may provide an extra layer of observation over them when an inmate who
is in custody is cleared by mental health from suicide precautions they are
dressed into this jumpsuit for easy identification of the status the use of
the lime-green jumpsuit is a safety measure to ensure staff is aware that
this inmate has a recent self-harming history and should be monitored and
observed a little more closely inmates who are on transition transitioning from
a thick green or tan safety smock to a jumpsuit when they are placed in lime
green jumpsuit they will typically get rehoused in a specific ward pending
further review by mental health however we will also dress inmates who
are on safety precautions from their normal attire of a thick green or tan
smock into a lime green jumpsuit for their court appearance in an effort to
help protect their privacy of their current mental health status once they
return from court they are then placed back into their original safety smock
and I will link to this post below in the description now a few other things
about her behavior because she was being hidden beside her by a woman she
moving back and forth correlating to where she was moving and you can see her
look down you can even see her look to the side what looks like she's looking
at out I'm not sure but more importantly she was chatting when the judge was
chatting and also anybody else and I understand she's being talked to but I
find this incredibly rude incredibly disrespectful not that she has respect
but incredibly disrespectful you think that you need to shut your mouth while
you are in court and the judge is speaking I saw this in the lorry valide
bail case as well I just find it incredibly disrespectful now as for the
courtroom I did notice Brandon Thompson in there
he was the reporter that gave the interview tootisha way back in the
beginning on the Thursday after that Gannon left and if you're curious about
some of the interview videos that I did I will link them right here now Alan
Lemon were of course in the courtroom and they were both seen looking over at
tisha and giving her the stare down which rightly so and they held
themselves so incredibly well that you could see that Gannon was giving them
strength I'm sure of it now also in the courtroom you see a lot of people in
blue they were wearing to support Gannon in the family and one thing I did notice
too was the guard and he was on it he was staring her down like no tomorrow
and making sure there's nothing funny going on so kudos to him now after Court
was over the district attorney Michael Allen was giving media an interview and
he talked about the charges against Letitia
he said that first-degree murder was a potential of life in prison without
parole he talked about the child abuse resulting in death and he said it was
anywhere from 16 to 48 years with five years for parole and then he talked
about the affidavit being sealed and then being unsealed and I'm gonna reduce
exact quote he said we feel like we've got the person we felt was responsible
for the crime sore issues on the investigative side have
expired the reporters were also asking him about it how difficult it is to
prosecute without a body and he said really any murder is hard to prosecute
and every case has its difficulties but he says I think we have plenty of
evidence to go forward so I thought that was interesting sentence he did touch
upon the death penalty a little bit and as you may or may not know legislation
has passed a bill to repeal the death penalty and that's as of July 1st 2020
and he talked about evaluating this now one thing I do want to read out is the
document from Daniel H May who's the district attorney and it says this
Daniel H made District Attorney for the 4th Judicial District of the state of
Colorado in the name and by the authority of the people the state of
Colorado informs the court of the following offenses committed or triable

state of Colorado Daniel H May District Attorney I think we need a moment
now al has filed for divorce and that is going to be on March 17th now there was
a beautiful tribute to Ganon in the form of a memorial cruise and it is amazing
how the people of Colorado Springs and area have come together in support of
Ganon and his family I saw people of all ages people from the
military bikers you name it to come and show their
support and the biker group that was there is called bikers against child
abuse and one of the members his name is James Williams said this he said I
totally support this cause because if it was the other way around like if it was
one of my nieces or nephew I would want the same kind of respect and there were
balloons and people had fly high on their vehicles and it was amazing and
hundreds of people gathered and they started at the Dutch brothers near
Academy and Austin bluffs and headed to lorrison Ranch and they wore blue in
honor of g-man Allen Leno were also there and people wanted to show Gavin's
family that they aren't alone in this fight for justice and in another post I
saw that Landon got a tattoo and it was a heart for Gannon with blue in it let's
have a chit chat below and talk about this crazy mess don't forget to
