Thank you!
Thank you!
I also think that the officer really was trying to be reasonable and act as a human being rather than just a robotic enforcer. I imagine he is beating himself up over all of this but also cannot be to blame because they would have reunited immediately, but probably would have had fights directly related to the stress of court appearances and etc. The problems in their relationship were clearly there before the incident.exactly, i bet had her own parents begged her not to go it wouldnt have made a difference so the police cannot be held accountable for what transpired, its sad but Gabby had a choice and she chose Brian.
Yes, I have total rain envy. I'd kill for that right now.Two quick thoughts. First, I wonder if all the boxes in the Laundries' garage are Gabby's and Brian's things that were removed from the storage unit.
Second, as a resident of the droughty western US, I'm in awe of the rain, especially having heard it rains in FL most afternoons.
And, the officer looked at the marks on her face and neck and reported to the others that 'she has marks on her, too.'I really wish people would quit saying this.
Gabby had visible marks.
She reported them to the officer. Said Brian cut her face. Photos confirm.
This doesn’t appear at all in the report and she’s never asked if this was before or after she hit him.
They ignored her claims and dismissed her as “manic”
Brian admits to leaving marks on Gappy.
On the video.
The police dropped the ball on this. IMO
It happens when there is very high traffic.Off topic sorry! Does anyone know why I’m getting “are you sure you want to like this post?” alerts since this latest thread started? Never had this before
Do we know for sure these were stickers and not magnets?Right - and then removed them apparently, as they were missing in the last video. That's odd, to say the least.
IMO Gabby was clearly showing signs of an emotional/mental crisis. Had they had the training to recognize that and gotten her evaluated, it would have been revealed that she was a suffering from emotional abuse at the hands of her boyfriend. Had that happened, I believe she would be alive today.Sorry...another IF:
If anything, this case shows how difficult it is for LE to deal with DV issues.... Brian had more marks on him from Gabby, and Gabby admitted she hit him. Neither wanted to be separated....watching the video I thought Gabby was the one out of control. BUT, I did think it would escalate. DV usually does. DV can be a two way street. LE knows this.
They did have a woman there. I understand you are upset but what else do you think you hey should have done?I think they should have had a woman police officer at the stop to interview Gabby. I am intimidated by male police officers as a petite blonde woman myself and I know for certain I would clam up and tremble just as she did.
As sad as I am to see this outcome, I can predict that any woman (or person) who has ever been abused could have predicted it. That 911 call was hard to listen to. The police failed Gabby.
I know of no second report. The original report released a few days ago has a narrative by Eric Pratt on 8/13 and it says, "I believe it was reported that the man assaulted the female." His uncertainty refers to his memory of what was said about the call, not that the caller was uncertain.

I think those were the styrofoam coolers they used to bring in LE's lunches and cold drinks. MOOI saw most of the live coverage at the laundrie house today, but not all. Did anyone see LE search of the truck camper in the driveway? I did not. Also, some of the “evidence” boxes were styrofoam boxes (empty). What do you suppose that was about?
I would agree with this and just mention that most police officers don’t really receive in-depth or extensive training on how to detect/handle a lot of issues like this. They generally aren’t trained as social workers or mental health professionals. As police officers, there is only so much they can do and actually, in this case they did a pretty decent job compared to what would have been done/not done in other cities around the country.
In hindsight, I’m sure they wish they did more, we all do. But there’s only so much they can do in their capacity and training as law enforcement.
She could have him programmed in as Granpa Stan. Between parents and step-parents, it's not unlikely that she had more than one Granpa. BL, in his haste to make the situation go away, may not have put much thought into how he referred to Granpa/Stan.But that was my point though… If she calls him some name for grandfather wouldn’t that be the name programmed for his contact information?
Why does the search warrant say signed 9/16 but they just did it today?
And they conveniently forget that the 911 caller reported that he was slapping her and chasing her down the street.I'm not sure. Here starting around 24:25 they state that both an independent witness and your own companion (Gabby) have made it clear that she was the primary aggressor
If you've watched the video you can see theDo you have a link for that info. I've just heard her referred to as an officer.
You know after reading this I'm wondering if the LE said this to prompt BL to defend GP?? He didn't.As we just heard on the 911 call. However, that is not what LE stated when they pulled them over. It was that a report of her hitting him. They even stated if they had to arrest someone, it would be Gabby since she was the agressor
How did the information from the 911 call (which obviously states he is the aggressor) not accurately get relayed to the LE
