Police in Florida were seen dropping off a pink envelope at the home of
missing Long Island woman Gabby Petito‘s boyfriend — as authorities say they’re preparing for the possibility that
something “sinister” has happened to her.

North Port police said they attempted to talk to Laundrie, but were
rebuffed by his parents, who put them in touch with his attorney.
“We talked with his parents, who did not make him available,” North Port police spokesman Josh Taylor told The Post.
Taylor
denied a report that authorities had made contact with Laundrie directly.
“We would love to [talk to him]. He certainly has whatever rights he has available. We will see how it goes, we are roughly 72 hours into this,” he said.

Meanwhile, police have seized the converted van the couple had been traveling in from his home.
“It’s here at the police department. It will be processed with the FBI,” Taylor said.
In a text message to The Post on Tuesday, Petito’s father, Joe, said that authorities were combing through data as part of their search for his daughter.
“I was told a lot of great work was done yesterday by the FBI, but they’re still going through a lot of data,” he said. “Everyone has been amazing in helping to try to find Gabby.”
