I can not be that generous and give him any one of these passes. If he had a healthy human mind/heart he would have called 911.A similar scenario has crossed my mind.
I've watched the video filmed by Red, White and Bethune, of them passing in their van, and for whatever reason, each time I watch it I get the chills, and I've watched it a good few times now. This is even before it was revealed that GP's body was found not far away.
It's the setting and location that gives me the heebie-jeebies, and here's why:
As we know, Gabby's van was parked in a place that was very visible to passing vehicles (the van of Red, White and Bethune being a prime example), yet at the same time it was away from the main camp ground and parked in an undesignated spot, if I understand correctly.
It did strike me that - as a woman - if I was camping alone or sleeping in the van alone in that spot, I'd feel very, very vulnerable.
The van is far enough away from other campers who could come to your aid if need be, but somewhere where a passing vehicle - driven by an opportunist with unsavoury intentions - could quite easily spot that there was a female there alone.
And the darkness - it would be absolutely pitch black there. There were trees that someone could've hidden behind and watched her, not to mention the fact that the van was positioned close to the little footbridge that was an 'escape route' for a perpetrator in terms of quickly getting her body out of sight of any other vehicles driving past.
When Red, White and Bethune approached the van door was pulled shut from the inside - was this GP in there alone feeling a little unsafe and afraid?
These thoughts are obviously based on the presumption that at some point, BL took off on foot, leaving GP in the van alone.
Maybe they'd had another argument and he took off for some head space in his beloved wilderness, and she stayed behind to work on her beloved blog (the two things that were seemingly pulling them in opposite directions).
- Did he then return and find her gone?
- Did he drive off without looking for her as he was still sulking from their earlier fall-out?
- Did he look for her and find her body then fly into a blind panic thinking he didn't stand a chance of this not being pinned on him, especially after the Moab traffic stop by police.
Although BL's actions indicate otherwise, we can't rule out that something along those lines actually happened.
MOO, JMO etc
He nor his parents are off the hook. And the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
As MassGuy said earlier, there is a pattern here.
Brian's parents never report Gabby missing, despite her van being parked outside their house for days and days.
They know Brian and Gabby left together, and should be returning together.
A desperate family reaches out to them, and they callously ignore those messages.
Brian disappears, and they delay reporting his disappearance for a couple days.
They refuse to speak to law enforcement, while a frantic search is taking place across the country.
Gabby's family continues to make gut wrenching pleas for the Laundrie family to do the right thing, and they are met with tone deaf remarks from the Laundrie's attorney, and silence from the Laundrie family.
I see no innocent explanation here....
