Found Deceased WY - Gabrielle ‘Gabby’ Petito, 22, Grand Teton National Park, 25 Aug 2021 #69

[GDawg89]

I've wondered about that too! Mainly about how B.L.'s parents can get money to him without getting it traced.

Here's an idea..it probably has holes in it, but what are the holes? That day that mom went to Orlando..she was browsing around the library. She made sure that a family friend was there ? Left an envelope between 2 books.. Family friend picked up envelope, and mailed it. Some predetermined fake name, sent to General Delivery in Murphy, North Carolina. B.L. picked up the envelope, or had someone else pick it up? Maybe $1500 in cash in there.

How could L.E. track this? Just guessing.

Great sleuthing here ..... this is plausible for sure, umm....makes you wonder if they are this smart on the fly?IMO

I thought so too, but Rose stated in her first Daily Mail interview that GP did not call her after the incident

Hmmm that's curious then. Did Gabby have older siblings?

For sure FBI pulled the call records on Gabby's phone, so they do know who Gabby called by now.

 

[Hyway]

Firstly, thanks to you and the others who all pointed out to me that Rose has more or less "X-ed" herself out of contention with regards to being Gabby's phone call.

Maybe the FBI have also requested that Nicole S. not talk about the call she had with Gabby. She'd need a lot more tact than I possess to keep from throwing it at the Laundries; but it's possible, no?

Conversely if Gabby called Roberta Laundrie that would make sense to me.

Lastly, we're also assuming that the police officers hovered around Gabby as she made this phone call, instead of tactfully standing offsides. For all we know, Gabby called the automatic Greenwich Mean Time number or similar and pretended to talk to someone.

I'm pretty sure that in the video the officer opened the car door and GP was on the phone. She put it down to talk to the LE and at the end of the conversation, the female officer (I think) stated that she was on the phone with her parents. So your point about giving her privacy is correct, unless they record inside their vehicle.

Storming the room is an indication to me that BL is considered to be dangerous and may be armed.

The FBI has been asking for tips since this case began. The Bethune van video was a tip that proved essential. The US Marshals were again responding to a tip they found credible. Why would they respond to tips if they knew BL was dead?

<modsnip> They either think he is on the loose, armed and dangerous and telling nobody (which would be insane), or they are overusing violent tactics which. <modsnip> eliminates any hope to completing this particular "mission" quietly.

Seriously, I have a growing feeling they have absolutely no idea what's going on.

Does anyone know what has happened to GP’s van? If it’s already been processed for evidence do they release it or do they keep it for a potential trial? Could this mean there is evidence in the van, if they’re keeping hold of it? If no crime was committed in it would they need to keep it? Just some questions I have tonight. JMO

As far as I'm aware this is all that's been mentioned about LE having the van.

Dr. Phil
This van is hers so not his, so you could go pick that van up. Why has that not happened?

Gabby's dad
It's in police impound and I'm not letting them.....they have the van. They're processing it. There's so much information Dr. Phil... (at this point, there appears to be and edit because JP starts talking about something else).

Isn't that the way the FBI showed up to the parent's home as well?
I remember seeing a picture of men wearing sheilds... Can't remember exactly when that was.
What date?

US Marshal Service clarifies involvement in Brian Laundrie search
The U.S. Marshals Service tells Fox News' Audrey Conklin on Monday that it "often supports investigations conducted by our federal, state, local, and tribal partners" following a claim from a man that the agency stopped him on the Appalachian Trail in North Carolina over suspicions he may have been Brian Laundrie.

"In this instance, the Graham County Sheriff’s Office (GSCO) in North Carolina had received a tip that the fugitive Brian Laundrie had been sighted in their jurisdiction," the U.S. Marshals Service said. "GCSO asked the USMS task force to support them in making contact with the subject."

That might fit. And maybe Brian's parents called him back to Florida to clean out a locker??? They knew it was not going well.

I'm starting to really think it was RL that she called during the stop. I think that the Ls knew more about the current state of their relationship since they lived there, and the Ls would have more insight into any potential issues BL may have. Add in Cassie's comment about 'this is what he does when he...'

I think GP called RL for advice and that is what got the ball rolling on BLs flight back to Florida.

That all makes sense. But I personally don't think NP isn't mentioning a Moab call she got from GP at the request of LE. While I'm sure she's been asked not to talk about some stuff (Stan text, for one) I don't think NP is capable of "putting on an act" right now. What I mean by that is I don't think she'd volunteer things like wishing GP had reached out re: the Moab incident if she'd actually talked to her. If she was being quiet for LE she'd say nothing or she might just say "I can't talk about that." (I think that's what she said re: the text) I don't think she'd offer a fake cover story.

Perhaps she called her stepmother.

I dont think Gabby's mom would have said she did not speak with Gabby on TV programs if she had. Even to keep it from Gabby's father. That hold episode is confusing for me. She would have said, "I cant talk about that". imo

 

[Which_pancake]

This raid just feels like a warning light of LE ineptness. There in no real reason they couldn't have simply waited for the guy to walk out of the room and to take him into custody without all the SWAT nonsense. They either think he is on the loose, armed and dangerous and telling nobody (which would be insane), or they are overusing violent tactics, which not only makes them look very bad from a LE behavior point of view, but eliminates any hope to completing this particular "mission" quietly.

Seriously, I have a growing feeling they have absolutely no idea what's going on.

I suspect the look-alike's account might be a little exaggerated. MOO

Here's the link to the full transcript: https://web.archive.org/web/2021092...family-speaks-sister-breaks-silence/11025914/

The quote you refer to is slightly different:

"Question: So you didn't know that he came back without the...?

Cassie Laundrie: I assumed he flew back, because that's what he did when he is - actually I don't want to say that."

I always read this as "that's what he did when he came back on the 17th of August...", but the "is" is in the way, you might be on to something here.

The "is" is peculiar because it's not grammatically correct. Shouldn't she have said either:
"That's what he did when he was..."
"That's what he does when he is...."

It begs the question: Was BL in a specific state that required him to fly home?

What's interesting is that she stopped herself and said she didn't want to say that [because] it is a police matter.

Why would the reason(s) BL flew home in August be a police matter? I thought the narrative is that he went home to clean out a storage locker and get some stuff.

Is the reason this is a police matter about the state he was in or the stuff he came home to get?

 

[lxmx]

OK....this is bugging me. Gabby's mom says she wishes Gabby had reached out to her, if Gabby did not.....WHO was Gabby talking to when she was sitting in the officers car?? Surely Gabby would have been unable to talk on phone without showing she was upset.

That has been bugging me too. Unless it was a family member who has been asked not to speak about it. Or Stan? MOO

Interview with dad

Hmmmm they didn’t give much away when asked, did they? Purely asking because I don’t see why they’d keep it unless there was some important evidence in it. I was thinking maybe for trial so the defence could also examine it, possibly. Thank you for sharing, piqued my interest a little more knowing LE are keeping hold of it. IMO

I had a similar theory a couple of weeks back (though I admit mine was more ridiculous Hollywood movie)...

I wondered if RL had placed a note or money inside a book in the library by that author that BL loves, Chuck Palahniuk.

However, it turns out that the FBI shadowed CL and RL on that trip and even followed them in, and around, the library, so I doubt they'd have been able to leave something.

[CharlestonGal]

This could be - at the very least it would explain why we haven't heard who she talked to since we haven't heard anything at all from the Ls! Maybe she had some reason to believe RL would be have better advice in this situation...MOO

I think she would have called CaL before calling RL. RL hasn't displayed any kind of concern or care for Gabby, but CaL did. There were a lot of things LE told CaL not to discuss and maybe a phone call from the Moab stop was one of those things.

I don't think it was Rose that Gabby called that day. Rose would have blabbed all about it on TikTok or to The Sun by now. imo

I think that the Ls knew more about the current state if their relationship since they lived there, and the Ls would have more insight into any potential issues BL may have.

MOO

Well, if that is the case, then they knew the second he made contact with them either by phone, or showing up in the van without Gabby.
IMO, I could see RL telling Gabby to call her if she ran into any problems with BL on the road.
IMO, they knew what BL was like and that there were ongoing issues between the two.
JMO
GB went to stay with Rose, while she and BL were living with the parents. I'm sure there were discussions as to why GB wasn't in the home-
Obviously BL could have given any excuse, but that kind of tension, you tend to "feel".
MOO

 

[TL4S]

It could have been Brian's Mother. It's not uncommon for people to call their future in-laws Mom and Dad.

This could be - at the very least it would explain why we haven't heard who she talked to since we haven't heard anything at all from the Ls! Maybe she had some reason to believe RL would be have better advice in this situation...MOO

Hmm...that is an interesting idea. Considering she had been living with or near the L family for a decent amount of time, her calling them does seem plausible. If that is who she decided to call in that moment, it makes me wonder if maybe she and RL had had previous conversations about BL's behavior and their relationship. I can actually see GP calling RL that day before BL calling his mom...

On the other hand, would GP lie to LE during that stop, about who she was calling? Unless the officer misunderstood when she was saying she was calling his parents. ???
