So perhaps the community isn't as angry as has been suggested. JMO.
Not my experience at all. Murdaugh I can see that, but not Gabby. Jme

On the docket, what does "THIRD REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION" mean? I'm curious.

It's a discovery request for documents, where one party asks another party for certain documents. Third means It was the third set of different requests from a party.

The discovery request deadline was 1/30/24, which means there will be no more requests. And it looks like that one was the last request needing a response.

I posted what I would have done. Seems pretty simple, alert police as to what was happening and then let them in. I am not giving them powers.

You said, "and I imagine take him away" as though LE couldn't do so unless they had the Laundries permission.

Moo .Mr Petito called Brian....Briana a female name, to me that says alot about his personality. I would never of communicated with those parents ever for any reason. My son would be in a relationship with the daughter, not the parents. I see absolutely no reason to communicate with them about anything. But that is me and my personality......moo

To be fair, he said he called all of Gabby's boyfriends by girl names. So he was just hostile to all of them.


Joseph Petito revealed that he’d refer to Brian as “Brianne,” according an episode of “Dr. Phil” that aired Monday.

“I’ve never actually liked any of Gabby’s boyfriends. I’ve never actually called any of them by their real name, ever,” said the dad, who is originally from Long Island.

“I always tried to use the female versions of the boyfriends’ names, just to intimidate them a little bit,” he said.

Joseph's depo was interesting. I believe he said he had never met Brian, never spoken to him, never was on a zoom with him etc. I found that interesting. I never did understand why using a girl's name has been turned into such a big deal. Or how Brian even could have possibly known.

A thought that something terrible might have happened to GP does not mean that he had any thought that his son was the cause of whatever happened. He didn't know, and of course any parent's thoughts would have gone all over the place in the midst of this crisis.
Including their son might have done something.

Even when something drastic has gone wrong.
They knew their son had issues.

Was his behavior at the Merry Piglets new?

Hi Boxer. Did you read Bertolino's depo? Must read imo. Incl believing Brian needed a crim lawyer and thinking gone might mean dead and he killed her, and speaking with the Laundries about about it. They all knew. So sickening, the poor Petitos.

My neighbor was a police officer and he used to keep his uniform on when boys came to pick up his daughter.

It's a thing.

Cf. Rodney Akins song "Cleaning this Gun (Come on in Boy)"

Great posts today. I would like to request not only the Chef's Kiss emoji but a standing ovation emoji.

It sounds like Dad had issues too. Didn’t know his own daughter’s last name, called Gabby’s boyfriend’s girls names. Just so weird.

Brian refused to take his prescription, as he said at the Moab Stop:
"My doctor told me I had anxiety, he prescribed me medication [inaudible 01:08:53] I believed that if I took the medication I might put myself off balance and be more anxious. That’s probably just a part of my anxiety."

Brian also displayed controlling behavior when he stole Gabby's ID so she could not enjoy a night out with her (female) friend.

Weird, but not as weird as ignoring a murder.

That's just the thing--we really don't know what either set of parents thought of the other set--little things like calling your child names might not have set well with them. Maybe the Laundries also felt put-upon by being the parents who gave the kids a roof over their heads. Maybe fed them--I don't remember hearing about that.

I just don't see the Laundries doing anything other than what most parents would initially do when faced with their child having done something very, very wrong. At first, they were likely in denial, and then, when they started having horrible niggling suspicions, they were still BL's parents. What parent is going to run to the parents of someone they may have suspected their son harmed and turn on their own son? Especially because their son was suicidal and they knew that.

That time was a nightmare for both families and I just hope they can both sit down on Wednesday and work it out for both of their sakes.
Mediation between the two families is set to begin on February 21.

If they can't resolve the case in mediation, it is scheduled to go to trial on May 13.
