A few hours after
#LeteciaStauch
was found guilty in first degree murder, a rainbow appeared outside of the courthouse. Today, the Stauch family got justice for their 11-year-old boy after waiting more than 3 years. Perhaps, this is a sign from
#GannonStauch
to his loved ones 💙

A new mural in Colorado Springs is honoring the memory of Gannon Stauch, an 11-year-old whose stepmother was convicted in May of his murder. The message behind the mural is "love," and will also feature Gannon's favorite color, which was blue.

Landen Bullard, Gannon Stauch's mom: "I slept a little later and slept great. I felt relief. I felt peace. I walked outside and thought, what am I going to do now? I'm very thankful for the first time in more than three years to have that feeling."

What I learned as a reporter, reporting on a big snowstorm:
- bring snacks and don’t forget to eat
- you’ll forget what time it is, or how many live shots you’ve done
- always bring your handy dandy measuring stick

Ashley’s reporting of the court case was impeccable. The amount of hours she put in to make sure every fact was shared from the case is unbelievable, just look at the notes she posted on her Twitter for proof. She worked tirelessly to make sure her reporting was good quality.
