Found Deceased WY - Gabrielle ‘Gabby’ Petito, 22, Grand Teton National Park, 25 Aug 2021 #70

[customCF]

Over a month since Brian Laundrie went missing, is he alive?

Personally doubt it. My guess is that he offed himself not long after he ran away. MOO Speculation

According to the link above:
CAT SCAN

As part of Gabby's autopsy, Dr. Blue had conducted a full-body CAT scan on Gabby's remains rather than a typical X-Ray. CAT scans offer a 3D view of a subject's organs, whereas an X-Ray provides only a 2D image.

Another unusual step Dr. Brent took in his examination of Gabby's remains was to consult an entomologist, which is a bug doctor, and a forensic anthropologist, who examines bones, to review the remains.

I would have thought if he was dead or even alive where LE have been looking, something would have turned up. LE, drones, helicopters, dogs have all found zero that we know about. If he was there, at least the dogs would have sniffed him out. MOO

plus let’s not forget the people with sage experience who have said in the media, ‘dead bodies equal the appearance of circling carrion birds, and we’ve seen none of them in the FL areas where we’re searching for him.’

I thought the FBI has the phone?

Would love to see that verified - but have not. Would appreciate it if anyone knows whether the FBI has any or all of BL's phones.

There are a lot of banks around here, but I'm not sure anyone actually goes in them. Maybe there all there because we have a superannuated population here, and people are dying en masse, so their executors are lining up to settle accounts. Oh, and then there are the hundreds of thousands of COVID deaths. Presumably, that would account for a corresponding hundreds of thousands of executors having to show up at banks for paperwork.
I seem not to know people who use banks, and my executor hasn't assumed his/her duties just yet. So, this is just my perspective.
But now I feel I've gone off topic, but not exactly. It may say something about the Ls that they visit a physical bank to do business (whatever it is). And juxtaposed against the mission to Fedex, it does give pause for thought.

Still talking about condo or is this something else now?

I don't think the FBI is verifying anything in this case. And I love the "all of BL's phones". I'm sure there's more than 1.

DNA EVIDENCE

Dr. Blue, who conducted Gabby's autopsy, said that coroners had recovered DNA from Gabby's body.

DNA can be critically important in investigations such as these, especially where defensive strikes are wounds are concerned. Often, DNA will be recovered from beneath the fingertips of a murder victim if they attempted to fight their attacker off.

GABBY’S FAMILY INSISTED ON PAYING IT FORWARD

The Sun was able to speak to two of the three men who organized the foundation event.

Steve Campo, Bill Nevin and Christian Cabrera know Jim Schmidt, Gabby’s stepfather.

Bill spoke about Gabby’s family, and emphasized that they made sure to get her parents’ blessing for the fundraising events.

“We went to the family to make sure they were okay with it, and they’ve been updated every time we did something,” Bill said.

The trio started reaching out to their friends for food, entertainment and a venue.

Would love to see that verified - but have not. Would appreciate it if anyone knows whether the FBI has any or all of BL's phones.

NORTH PORT, Fla. (WFLA) — Ten days before he vanished, Brian Laundrie bought a new cell phone, according to the Laundrie family’s attorney Steve Bertolino.

Bertolino tells 8 On Your Side the FBI now has that phone.

Would the birds still be circling if a gator got a hold of BL and drug him under water?

My thoughts too. I would. if I killed someone I loved or anyone else. The realization alone would shock me to death. But not all people have those feelings.

OT My mother used her Ipad up until her death at 94. She texted too. Used her Alexa devices for music, lights, tv etc...when she could remember the name instead of one of her great grandchild's name of Lexie. Mother of 6. She was hip.

My MIL never wanted to ever touch a computer. Doesn't text either. Wish she did. Lot's of pictures she's missing from family.

Not liking what the L's did to GB's family, a part of me feels for them. Not a large part though, a part though. I'm human. jmo

 

[YohanApple]

I'm dying over here at being over 50 and perceived as dinosaurs, lol! C'mon now, really?

I think the point is. There are plenty of reasons why they could have went to the bank. It's all their personal preferences.

I know when I just refinanced I did the majority of it online but when it came time to sign the closing documents. I had to physically go into the bank to sign. It was a requirement. Just my experience.

 

[Arkay]

Listen, both my parents are in their 60s & they can kinda do basic things on a computer & and basic operations of an iPhone. Lol if they need anything off Amazon, 9/10 times I order it for them, & don’t even talk about food ordering. Lol my mom can do basic online banking stuff, but my dad prob wouldn’t touch it. So I get that. I just don’t think that’s the Laundries. Mainly bc if the food ordering. They feel a little comfortable with a small amount of tech. IMO.

You're a good child!

But I'm 64. The Internet has been around at least since I was 40, because I recall doing the dial-up AOL back then. I've had a quarter of a century to learn how to use the Internet, and that's true for my entire generation. I have Amazon Prime, I have an IPhone, an IPad etc. and I can work it all, although I am not the natural that my 17-granddaughter is because she grew up with it.

I have 3 banks just on my block (NYC) and although I use the ATM, I don't want to do online banking because hacking is too easy and I've got my life savings in the bank.

I don't particularly care if the Laundries left the house for errands. I can't speculate on why. I only want from them what they won't give---an explanation and information on where Brian is now. I can't imagine them doing something so overt that will leave a trail to find him, so I'm not getting worked up about where they went, what they bought and why.

As a P.S. I want to give a shoutout to our lovely NYC water. When I visit family in South Florida, their water makes me gag. Sorry, Floridians, but it's true. IMO.

ALL MOO/Speculation

The parents met LE at the well-check visit or van seizure (they happened to occur right after each other) with retained counsel. If the parents knew nothing, SB could have successfully counseled BL to the best of his abilities, leaving the parents out of it, as he made sure he did with Cassie. MOO The fact that the parents could not be left out of this at that EARLY date speaks volumes "to me." Still, if SB had negotiated for a surrender after GP was found, he still could have had a very good chance at keeping the parents out of it. Instead he did not. BL was already gone, but not necessarily to a place where his parents could not find him. MOO Now, nearly a month and a half later all of his clients face significant exposure bc of these decisions IMOO. The window of opportunity that SB had to fashion a plausible defense that would insulate them has closed. This is JMO.

suppose BL calls into the lawyer- is he under an obligation to allow a phone tap since BL is a fugitive? the atty would not need to know where BL is and the Ls would not need to know either.

 

[Mishmish]

IMO Gabby was so upset when LE stopped them for a couple reasons. In her own words they had been arguing and who knows what was said to her verbally and then the physical altercation ensued. Now they are dealing with the Police. I can see her fearing the wrath of BL. "Now look what YOU have done"

I agree. There were multiple good reasons for Gabby to be visibly upset. The hardest for me to witness in that footage was toward the end of the stop.

IMO, the reality—and injustice—of Gabby’s situation came fully crashing down on her the moment LE said she would not be arrested. She had been so strong and held herself together (think about everything she had just been through—an altercation with her SO that involved violence, threats of abandonment/isolation, speeding/reckless driving, and a police chase! In the midst of everything that had thus far transpired [none of it resolved—other than that she had made it into her van, and that van had safely come to a stop], she was now at the center of yet another highly stressful situation: the involvement of LE. Was Brian in trouble? Would he get a ticket for speeding? Arrested for not pulling over? How much did they know about what had happened earlier? There are very serious legal consequences for that. And it would no longer be a secret. What about when this police interaction is over? How will Brian react to the outcome (whatever it is)? Will he be contrite — or even more enraged? (Or one, then the other?) Sitting quietly, alone in the back of the cruiser, must have given her a lot of time to agonize over these things. In spite of it all, I saw a very young adult put on a brave face, be genuinely polite and respectful with LE, and try her best to protect her SO (from the consequences of his actions…).


In spite of her verbal assurances that she was to blame for everything, on some level she must have known this wasn’t entirely true. (Hopefully, she recognized it wasn’t true AT ALL—but being so young—and probably still very loyal and still very much in love, it’s possible she didn’t have that clarity.) I crumbled and wept with her when the officer said she would not be cited or charged “for domestic violence battery”. What horrible words to hear directed at you, describing you. How did it come to this? SHE was almost arrested? And if what SHE had done could be considered “domestic violence battery”….. (I doubt she would know this or even be thinking in these terms, but it is, unfortunately, not unheard of for the victim to be charged in a domestic situation. How that must amplify the pain and despair, the feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness…!)


We watch a part of her break in this moment. A part that hadn’t been broken before (though we got a glimpse of the emerging cracks when LE questioned her about her “intent” while hitting Brian).


And the officer has absolutely no clue. He really thinks they’ve done her a favor here! He can’t understand why her tears are falling harder now, why her mouth has locked into an anguished downward curve—now, the moment she’s just found out she’s off the hook and she gets to go free! So he tells her to “relax” and that “there’s no reason to be crying now.” He says, “you’re coming out as the golden flower on top of it all.”



Well, she is the golden flower on top of it all now.



***

This outcome of this stop—by being accused of DV battery, nearly being arrested, and being forced to spend the night completely alone (miles from family and friends)—was kicking a poor soul who was already down—and then some.


As for being separated for the night… Her face had fallen well before he’d gotten to that part. (I imagine forced separation wasn’t something she wanted, but it almost seemed as if her her face brightened when he said it. At the very least, she was regaining her composure. Perhaps it was simply because this part of the ordeal was coming to an end, and without any scary legal repercussions…?)


***

As I am neither a psychic nor an empath, all of the above is quite obviously just MOO!

 

[PhoneJockey]

No. He is saying that some people are very deceptive and they enjoy that deceitfulness. When they are being disingenuous they have a certain smirk/smile at inappropriate times. They take pleasure in being duplicitous.
Jmo

Duper's Delight is the term!

 

[AtlantaBourne]

Has there been any discussion re 911 calls to the L's home before the van trip started, say going back a year prior to that? Just wondering if there is any evidence of a history of DV of BL to GP. Or if there is any history that BL was abusive to anyone.

 

[RickshawFan]

I'm dying over here at being over 50 and perceived as dinosaurs, lol! C'mon now, really?

Yes, believe it or not, some folks were there at the dawn of personal computers, and some posters think they're too old to use them! Let me see, ummmm.... Bill Gates? Steve Jobs (RIP)?

 

[PhoneJockey]

Would they answer honestly when asked what is in the box? IMO.

In my experience, they don't ask you what's in your shipment, you just sign off that you aren't shipping anything from the restricted list. You can even print FedEx labels at home, pack up your box, seal it and arrange for a driver to pick it up from your doorstep.

"Brian Laundrie's parents go on lengthy errand run in Florida, longest since saga began

Chris and Roberta Laundrie spent about an hour at their local Walmart store just after it opened Tuesday morning, exiting with a shopping cart full of bottled water and other items.

They drove by an AT&T store – but it had not yet opened. Then went to a bank, standing outside the door until its business day began at 9 a.m.

After about 25 minutes inside, they hit the road again, dropping off a box at a nearby FedEx Office storefront.

Then they hopped on Interstate 75 and drove north before reaching another AT&T store in Sarasota."

We must all be wondering what was in the FedEx box and to whom it was addressed. And why did they go to AT&T? So many questions with no answers.
