Found Deceased WY - Gabrielle ‘Gabby’ Petito, 22, Grand Teton National Park, 25 Aug 2021 #35

YEs, but whatever convinced the other 11 is more like to convince 12 on another jury.

True. But the defense often benefits from a 2nd trial in a different way from the prosecution. So what looks like a slam dunk statistically, sometimes isn't.

yeah. Point being in a decent size backpack it would be surely possible to pack enough food for a relatively long time... longer if one's metabolism allows. And, for the record, I'm not sponsored by Mountain House, I simply chose one brand as an example. How big was/is the backpack?

I have (among other things) a 1lb bag of rice and a propane camping stove in my bug out bag. Those two things alone (along with collecting rainwater or being by a stream) can keep me alive for up to a month. And they would both easily fit in a child’s school bag, much less a large camping pack. So I agree, it’s definitely possible to stay alive for a while on minimal food.

Up against the wildlife, however, that’s a different story.

Mountain House is very bulky. You can pop the seal, roll the air out and reseal to save some space as long as you are using them within 30 days or so. Mre's are bulkier and heavier, even field stripped.

Mountain House is very salty and creates an even bigger need for water to drink as well as water to boil and reconstitute. Eating mre's only by now he would be plugged up tighter than a cork in a bottle.

A life straw is only good for getting a drink unless you pull mouthful after mouthful and spit it into your container. They are also really geared for moving water or debris free springs....they plug with debris easily and that swamp water is nasty. he would need clean water to clean/rinse it with. A pump filter or gravity filter would be best when cooking/camping but take up even more space.

In the time he has been gone, he would have expended any food supplies that fit in a single backpack.

All my humble opinion.

Yep. I was simply pointing out that the thought that food was the problem might not be accurate. The guy is said to be an REI shopper... who has one of the largest selections of that type of stuff. And, though I asked the question previously, I have no idea if he is/was a so-called "prepper".

BBM. This contradicts that he went to the home.

MOO: I didn't claimed that her dad went to the house-I was careful to NOT say that- I only stated that the incident involved him. And it did. And I think it gives credence to a theory as to why the family never responded and immediately retained an attorney, of course we don't know what it was exactly and depending on what is buried in the redactions, I am fine being completely wrong. But it has not ever been debunked, "something" happened on the 10th and twice on the 11th AND on the 11th the missing person's report came out.

I think they handled it well actually.
It is being investigated.
There were some links posted earlier today with discussions by alleged experts stating there may have been confusion regarding which message they received first.
I think we have to await the outcome of that investigation.
They will have all the facts, they will make recommendations based upon their factual acquisition, hopefully and if things need to change they may well.

Well the top of the police report the officer created is the same as the 911 call stating a male was hitting the female. I would hate to see dispatch getting blamed for any of this.

 

[LorMitt]

I've wondered if he has Life Straws. I have friends that keep them in their backpacks when they go hiking. One Life Straw can filter something like 700 gallons of water.

Edit: Clearly I read more than I post. I was responding to Trooper's post that commented on how he would have to have water.

Since it has been cleared up (see the links and quote I provided upthread) that Joe Petito did in fact NOT go to the Laundrie house or even their neighborhood, and since there was an early report where GP's mother was saying they got blown off by the NP police, I'm guessing that JP was forced to settle for a request for a wellness check instead when he called LE on the 10th. It wasn't until they filed a missing person's report in NY (6:55pm on the 11th) that the NPP decided to act on it and went later that the evening to ask to speak to Brian.

I believe the last text message on the 30th will be BL's undoing. He had to be on the road on the 30th in order to make it back to Florida by September 1st. So where ever he was will be located at the tower it pinged off of.

FBI probably know this already since they established his timeline and how he was using her debit card after her death. If BL ever see's the inside of a courtroom, I think we will all be shocked by what the FBI has known that we don't.

Agreed. They are pretty slick. They have a lot of tricks up their sleeves, and a lot of smart people. BL, your name is Mud.
Where are you?

 

[sun16]

We could update the poll to have an option for ‘no longer alive’. If the poll is asking where BL’d BODY is, then I think it’s in the reserve, and he’s dead. There is an awful lot of money, energy and time being spent trying to find someone who some people say is a big outdoorsman who is cunningly eluding the authorities. I beg to differ. I don’t think he’s very bright, he doesn’t have any money or assistance, and he’s a coward who likely offed himself the Tuesday he walked into the reserve.

Looking at the trees in this crime scene photos, it appears there may be bullet holes. I'm not certain, but with the markings diffused over the area and always seeming to be aligned towards the person taking the photo, in the way bullets would be aligned to a shooter, I'm wondering if that is what these photos are portraying? I looked up some various photos of bullet holes in trees and found similarities to what is seen in the crime scene photos.

And, you know, actively evading law enforcement (and everyone else who's looking for you).

 

[Vegasgrl]

I think her not telling LE that Brian slapped her and hit her repeatedly is evidence that she covered for him.

And not telling her parents.

 

[passionflower]

HLN doing another Gabbys story tomorrow at 8 pm

 

[borndem]

It wasn't for my nephew. He was found almost a week after he died. Physically the ME couldn't narrow down the date. The date of death was determined by the date of the newspaper he was reading when he died. The fact he went to work that day. And the fact he didn't go to work in the days after.

So sorry to hear, SuziQ, that you lost your nephew. SMH.
Blessings on both of you.

 

[YohanApple]

Does anybody think that BL planned this (killing Gabby on the road trip) all along with the weird books and films, etc... he was into?

Mountain House is very bulky. You can pop the seal, roll the air out and reseal to save some space as long as you are using them within 30 days or so. Mre's are bulkier and heavier, even field stripped.

Mountain House is very salty and creates an even bigger need for water to drink as well as water to boil and reconstitute. Eating mre's only by now he would be plugged up tighter than a cork in a bottle.

A life straw is only good for getting a drink unless you pull mouthful after mouthful and spit it into your container. They are also really geared for moving water or debris free springs....they plug with debris easily and that swamp water is nasty. he would need clean water to clean/rinse it with. A pump filter or gravity filter would be best when cooking/camping but take up even more space.

In the time he has been gone, he would have expended any food supplies that fit in a single backpack.

All my humble opinion.

Mountain House, as I stated, was simply an example. There are many variations. These *types* of things are created for days/weeks worth of backpacking. No, it's not forever.
