Somehow this does not feel satisfying. I hope his notebook reveals the how and why. Even if it’s not released to the public, maybe it can help ease some of the parents’ confusion.
We may never know why or how, but what we do know is that this case has given increased attention to domestic violence and violence against women, and that energy everyone put into finding BL needs to be kept up to honor Gabby's memory by helping solve other DV related cases.

IMO we won't hear much else. This is it folks.
I could be wrong, but I don't think so.
MOO

Gabby Petito, Brian Laundrie seen in last known candid photos taken before Petito went missing

Not the big news now that Brian is confirmed dead, but I hadn't seen these pictures until now. Makes me extra heartbroken for what could/should have been.

ETA: Brian goofily wearing the hat that was later spotted in the Bethune video of the van—-it’s just hitting me so hard, this tragedy. Here two months ago we’d never heard of them and now my heart is so broken.

Oh! Surely the FBI informed the Petito/Schmidt families before releasing this statement.

I am sure that while one agent was speaking to the Laundries, another agent was speaking to the Petitos/Schmidts.

Any word on an upcoming news conference?

Thank goodness it was dental records so there aren’t ongoing theories that it was an arm hacked off and staged.

As much as I dislike the way the Laundries handled everything from the get go, as a parent I feel for them that their son is gone, likely by his own hand. I can’t imagine how that feels and I never want to have to know.
My heart breaks for the Petitos/Schmidts as well. They will never get the answers they so deserve. They will never get true justice for Gabby.
What an awful chain of events, so many lives forever changed.

Partial human skull, badly decomposed is part of the report from LE regarding the remains found yesterday.

We now know the remains are indeed those of Brian Laundrie. He most likely died there the night he disappeared.

I came on to post what everyone else has posted. The FBI has confirmed it was Brian.

In the end, it really was that simple.

MOO.
No, I still want to know if he committed suicide, or if he wasn't the great outdoorsman he claimed to be. IMO he got away with murder-suicide.

Finally.

It implies he probably died when he first went to preserve and we can stop thinking his parents had him in a bunker, flowerbed, condo or safe house, or that they were leaving supplies hidden in the woods.
Lol!

So, perhaps they found a skull. Is it possible he hung himself? Wasn't he found near a bridge? Or maybe from a tree.

In any case, I think cause of death will be difficult to determine if he's been in the swamp for a month. Unless he wrote a suicide note. IMO

At this point, if any protestors remain outside the Laundrie home, I hope they're arrested.
I feel like there’s nothing left to protest. They wanted BL found… he has been found. They wanted the parents to be involved… they helped find him. Anything further is just harassment, IMO.

Agree. Maybe another news conference by LE but I think that’s it.

It usually is....abuser/beater who kills the partner and then goes on to kill himself. It happens every day with ridiculous frequency sad to say.

Where did the skull get confirmed? Or just assumption based on dental remains?

That was quick! Bones are BL
