Gabby Petito, Brian Laundrie Evidence Developments |

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 มิ.ย. 2022
- One of the lawyers representing the parents of Gabby Petito told WFLA.com on Friday that there is more evidence they would like to see released from the Laundrie family.
The Laundrie family’s attorney, Steve Bertolino, released eight pages of Brian Laundrie’s notebook on Friday that included what appeared to be a confession that he killed his fiancée.
REPORT: bit.ly/3NkZaJV
I think Brian was following his family's directions and guidance from the lawyer.
I agree. Just by following this case I've always felt that he grew up with his parents cleaning up after him. I believe he was very immature yet arrogant. I think he believed that people believed his BS. Gabby had figured him out. For someone to question his BS pissed him off.
To be honest I think Gabby might have been a hitter. Slapping him maybe? His response would be to beat her up. It probably became more frequent.
I digress & believe his parents "fixed" his "mistakes" all the time.
Totally agree the 2 more letters have to b revewled!!
@@traciemcdaniel3660 she wasn't a hitter she was a victim !!! And scared if him
He also used her bank card on the way back.. so took her van, used her bank card, knowing he had killed her and left her there. Tried to fool her parents by sending text messages pretending to be her-Abhorrent behaviour at every step of the way.
Yes that’s always bothered me about using her card because someone like the family or someone trustworthy said that Brian had plenty of money himself. I think they also mentioned he had her pay for most, something like that, of the trip. And remember it was her van I have a horrible memory lol. But I do remember thinking wow. He’s worse then we thought. To her mostly I mean
Correct. He was a worthless piece of ish and I’m sure he’s rotting in 🔥 .Yes I fully believe he told his parents what he had done when he got back. And they knew he was going to that reserve. Yeah Brian heard a scream alright and a splash, because he hit her with a rock and bashed her head in the creek. Then had second thoughts about it. And then finally finished her off by choking the life out of her. And this probably was not the first time he had done something like this. It just was the first time that he went all the way through with it.
And the dirty Landrieu ran to the bank asap to clear out his account and never even offered to pay back Gabby's money!
I find it amazing that on the 12th Brian couldn't afford a motel room and the Moab police footed the bill, but on the 17th he had enough money to fly to Florida and back and pay for Gabby a motel room while he was gone! I wish Gabby had called her family and had someone fly to her and help her get home while Brian was gone.
quite the liar.
If someone offers to pay for MY motel room, despite my income or how much money I have, I'm not gonna use my own money if it's offered.
Facts
I like your comment I’ve always wondered about there money situation also,, they seemed to always watch every penny they spend,,and I can understand that,, I’m with you I wish her parents said if you’re running out of money time to come home ,, I’m sure Gabbys family have beat themselves up thousands of times but they didn’t know how Evil Brian and his family was ,, I’m also hoping this goes to court and they get justice and answers from Brian’s parents it’s not going to bring poor Gabby back but it would show the world,, How heartless his parents are !!!!
@@HIKATHYable I agree.
If his story was true, why would he leave his beloved's body in the desert? He didn't want it to be found. He didn't care if she was eaten by animals. He took her car and went home to his family to spend the time he had left with them. If you think that makes the story believable, there is nothing I can say.. He should have at least called her parents and explained what happened. But no, his story is all lies.
completely unbelievable. nobody would kill anyone they loved to put them out of their misery. she wasn't a raccoon he accidentally hit with his car .
IT IS CALLED PULLING THE PLUG ---- OR FREEDOM OF CHOICE ------ '" ASSISTED SUICIDE" .
Well said
Right he spoke of her like she was a beloved pet he had to put down it makes no sence and i dont buy it at all
To him & those like him that is exactly what other ppl are. Both he & the individuals who taught him to have absolutely NO character or integrity are deeply dishonest, furtive & lacking in common decency
That’s what people are for narcissists. They think they love pple but have so much self hatred that they actually confuse Love with attachment and control/dominance. I hope more pple would be educated about such.
Matter of fact narcissistic abuse preventing should be TAUGHT in schools.
I don't understand how Brian can be smiling and acting "normal" with his family while just killing the girl he "loved" just completely sickening. Such a disgusting individual... along with his parents. I'm so sorry for beautiful Abby and family.
he wrote that as a clear cover up and nothing more.he killed her then he hitched 2 rides .He's a liar a sneak a criminal killer!!
Struggling to understand these replies 😅
Right I’d feel gutted at the very least
It’s Gabby (not Abby) but I feel the same as you wrote!
@@charliedallachie3539 it's terrible. It's terrible to even joke about any of this.
News Dad, and JB, don’t let this story go! Laundries parents must be held accountable and held as an example.
As Stephen Bertelino said, Brian was extremely distraught when he left the house and Christopher said he couldn’t stop him. If he was so distraught, why wouldn’t Christopher call the police and say that Brian left and is mentally unstable. They would have went and got him and put him in some protected custody. I feel the parents knew what he did and knew what he was going to do and let him go to save him from going to jail. Most parents would rather have there son alive and in jail then dead. They could have gone and seen him in jail, now they have nothing. He also should have done what’s right and talked to Gabby’s parents.
SO MUCH THIS
They obvious gave him horrible advice. They still aint doin the right thing for themselves! They should do the time for Brian shame on them
I’ll go a bit further. In my opinion the Dirty Laundries couldn’t stand the thought of a son in prison for murder and rather him be dead and may have told him so. Perhaps that’s the main reason BL was so distraught when leaving the house.
Inhibit
Thank you, JB Biunno and the team, for the support of Gabby's family. I also hope Brian's family were listening to you. They really should be listening.
JB, you’re truly one of a kind. I appreciate you. As well as Brian, you’re both great reporters.
Also I’d love for an observatory at the top of my house.
I couldn’t agree more. I was sooo excited when I saw this video lol.
@@lkelley5708 You were so excited, because you were playing with yourself, in the bathtub
The Very Best God Bless ❤
JB and Brian Entin. the best!!!❤
By all accounts Gabby took her phone everywhere to take pictures or video so it makes me curious about the "falling in the creek being soaking wet" story. Wouldn't her phone have been inoperable? How was he able to use it later to send bogus texts to her family? And in this horrific tragic moment he claimed to have had, why would he even think to take her phone? It's all BS
Good catch! I haven't seen someone bring this up yet. :) totally, more holes in his story
She may have had a protective case for the phone that was also water proof or something. And don’t forget many phones nowadays are already quite water proof for the first hour or so that they spend under water.
I think the reason he left Gabby's body was because he thought if he could keep it a secret long enough, animals would "take care of" her body so there wouldn't be any evidence. I don't believe what he wrote. Not for a minute. There isn't one bit of empathy.It's all about him.
He was a horrible narcissist.
I think he was furious that she went back into the restaurant & apologized for him after he'd gone back in several times & made a scene. And that fury escalated into murdering her.
Hello Pat how are you doing?
My husband even said that Brian's suicide note was literally just a story. He knows very little about the case but when I read it to him, my husband was like no he's making shit up
yep!! lol my hubby said i was gullible af for believing he put her out of her misery after falling and laughed his ass off !!!
I still wonder might sound crazy but wonder if he's even deadand maybe left the country completely dequise.
My hubby said the same
@@elizabethbennet4791 😄 your hubby is right, my husband straight away said he is all kinds of shady too. I like your name there btw, one of my all time fave films.
The NY Post has an article saying that Brian Laundrie was well versed in surviving in the wild. If that is true, why would they be out in a pitch black National Park at night? Why would be in a creek at night? Why wouldn't he have thought to light the fire first? Why wouldn't he have known he had to get back to the van? If he couldn't see, how did he see to light the fire? If he was well versed in survival, why didn't he have a flashlight or flare? Why wouldn't he have had a back pack with a first aid kit? I have a thousand more questions. He murdered her, knew he was going to get busted, and lied trying to cover it up. His parents knew Gabby was dead. I have a thousand questions about that too. This is all BS!
None if this makes sense...according to him, they were crossing the creek to get to the van when he heard her fall. Instead of him carrying her to the van, he carried her away from the van. I did a diagram somewhere on here. That statement of his is BS!!
I would die if dropped in the woods but I would prepare as much as possible! I carry solar blankets, duct tape, safety glasses, wipes in case you get maced, all kinds of crap in my purse. You'd think he would at least have somewhat of a clue.
I am from Wyoming and very familiar with that area. They were camping in a dispersed camping area outside the national parks in that area. The temperature was not freezing. It was hot and got chilly at night at that altitude, but not freezing in August. Her body was very close to the van. The creek was near the van. The story is a lie written by his mother. It was written by someone who was never there.
The location of her body was like 1000 feet from the van. It’s all a lie.
yep
Gabby hated people who litter,,, such as someone leaving body parts scattered in two states.
Its also bs that it mentions her body being torn apart because that was the exact alibi north point police claimed when his body was not found.
Why would the FBI let the Laundrie lawyer take the original letter?
This is my question too. I’m not sure if it could be done but any type of time dating. Seems really weird they released ANY of this to them.
@@moonprincess3830 Your idea of a date, is a 5-minute hand job,,,LOL
Case wasn’t being tried so they can’t keep items from it is my understanding. I heard something along those lines on this show.
I recall that when the case ended, they released his belongings to the Laundries.
But Entin said the authorities have copies of it.
I don’t understand the “Letter to Gabby,” with an explanation to the reader(s)what happened.
It is my belief that Brian and his parents made up this story while on vacation.
(1) Even if it is Brian's handwriting, Robertha or Chris could have dictated it for Brian to write down. (2) Brian's trip to Florida (Aug 17-24), and what he did during that time, has always intrigued me, and is that connected to Brian murdering Gabby (as that was after the Utah police stop), and what was Gabby doing all those days by herself, and did her parents know Brian had flown to Florida?
P.S. The Laundrie’s family attorney used the word “Irregardless,” which should not ne used in a formal setting.
It’s a lie. He killed her when his anger went too far. NO ONE PUTS SOMEONE YOU LOVE DOWN WHEN THEY COULD HAVE CALLED FOR HELP
Problem is, that you weren't there, and you don't know for sure. Life throws peculiar curve balls at us. Anything could of happened, and the only 2 people who know the truth are dead.
A more plausible scenario is that they had a fight and he throttled her before hitting her with a rock to make it fit his narrative. It takes time to strangle someone and he had plenty of opportunity to stop what he was doing. We will never know if Gabby decided to end their relationship and he got angry. Not once did he say anything to anybody except perhaps his mother, he just cleared Gabby's bank account and drove himself home in her van.
Why did his parents lawyer up immediately? Why didnt they ring the police anonymously to report a murder? Now we are left with more questions than answers.
I do believe that if Red White & Bethune had not seen Gabby's van then she her body would never have been found and Brian would still be living his life.
JB, you and Brian Entin have reported on this case sensitively and you were both the best sources of news on this case. I want to thank you both for that.
,
He didn't clear her bank account. He just used her credit card to get home ( for gas, etc ).
She probably wanted to break the engagement off and he went ballistic.
@@MultiPetercool She broke Brian Laundromats, penile implant, you mean
@@MultiPetercool agreed.
@@MultiPetercool I agree.
You're a great communicator JB. I think you made the right choice :). You really know how to break a story down and make it interesting and with compassion.
Hello Kathleen how are you
My guess: I think it’s most likely that they were fighting and he pushed her.. she fell and badly hit her head. He didn’t mean for THAT to happen. The stuff after the traumatic head injury is all true, both her poor condition and the fact that he panicked! But he didn’t panic because she was suffering. He panicked because this was super serious, and he couldn’t get her help because she’d tell the truth.
Yes yes my thoughts exactly she would tell the truth so he killed her ,, it’s logical thinking on our part
Oh yeh right so just leave her there in the elements?????I don't but it
He killed her and his parents and Berttolino know it!
I only pray that Pat Rilley and judge Hunter Carill looks at all the WFLA news clips from the very beginning when Gabbys Father and all her family and the World was looking for her !!!!@
And those 4 maybe even Cassie KNEW!!!!!
@A_peary_legal OMG THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU A PEARY LEGAL I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS INFO!! Coroner's report would be even better
@A_peary_legal He wrote the FRONT of her head was a bump, not the back. he want even paying attention when lying...
Yeah i think you might be right
I don't believe what he wrote in that letter. It seems a forced story
Yes. It was.
That’s what we used to call them in New York shirt and tie guys! I like that you’re dressed up it suits you. And I like that Brian is casual because it suits him. And what I like best is that you both do your jobs so well and that’s what’s important. Thank you for helping me get through this case and helping me get through Covid it will always be grateful for that. It’s a pleasure to watch two young men with so much integrity and moral values. Blessings and much love to you both.. 🌱🪴💚🍏😵💫
I can not ever imagine my daughter or one of my 2 sons being killed or dieing before me. I could not handle the grief. My abusive husband died 31/2 years ago from a heart attack. That was terrible!; It was terrible for our children. He was over 70 and he had over 40 years to be a good husband and a really good father. He was a sociopath.
So terrible for Gabby's Parent's, TERRIBLE!!
He should have put Her in the van call 911 and meet them with her NO MATTER WHAT.
Love your shows, been watching you since the beginning of this story.. your top notch and do a wonderful job reporting all the facts! keep up the great job that you do!
❤❤❤❤
been watching since 1985
If my son said he killed somebody and was considering suicide or escape, I would say anything I had to to get him safely in custody at my lawyers side. I would promise everything will be fine (it will, in jail). I would promise to help. I would agree to anything that gets him to meet me, and my lawyer will be there to get him in custody once I’m there.
I don’t care what’s in the letter as far as help, until the help is real.
She should be sympathetic to her son, it’s built into humans. I can love my children, help my children, and still tell the authorities the truth. If he was just hinting he killed her, I would do the same until I found out she was okay.
I truly did some soul searching and there's not a doubt in my mind I would never help him to escape justice , ill put money in his commissary and if I can afford an attorney drive the 200 miles to visit him in prison but I can garrentee you he would not be another Urine Vandersluth! I'm not lieing when I say this even my daughter in law laughed and said I know you would.
I agree, BL's actions were that of a narcissist. Completely self centered and just wants to come across as a Hero after murdering Gabby.
He is in ITALY WORKING FOR VINEYARD
The scenario and injuries described in the letter, are not life threatening, in no way. This letter sounds like a rough draft. He was trying to create a situation in which he wasn't the bad guy we all know he is. He couldn't face the consequences of his actions
All fabricated and orchestrated by his parents
If this was a "mercy" killing....why did he keep waking her up? It takes a LONG time to strangle someone. Letting her go to sleep would have been merciful.
In my eyes, he left this note to save his reputation for his parents expense. He didn’t want his parents to think he was raised as a monster and he didn’t want his parents to have to deal with the BS that he created. Unfortunately, his actions show that this letter is completely Bull. The fight in Moab, the fact he left her body, used her card, pretended to be her in a text message. Anyone that loves someone, would do anything to help them survive. She wasn’t a cancer patient on her death bed asking for someone to pull the plug, she was a healthy young woman with an “injury” as he says - that would of been able to get help at the hospital if he drove her there. Her legs weren’t broken? So why not help her walk to the car. Unbelievable how selfish he is to even try to sound like a hero in his death. Narcissist.
Yup
Release his mom's letter that said "BURN AFTER READING"!
It's starts 2:59
This JB Bruno man is terrific and Brian Entin a Plus Guy too. This break was phenomenal, nice question answer time out. I truly enjoyed getting to personally know my two best news men better by this segment. Cool choices.
I keep going back to the parents being on the scene of finding his body...did they plant the notebook to help Brian's confession?
I think the parents had something to do with his death, I don't believe he killed himself!!! I'm a survivor of DV & a narcissist does not kill themselves!!! I think once the parents realized they couldn't get him out of his mess & couldn't get him out of the country, they went out there with him under the guise they were gonna help him hide & his dad shot him...I think they were scared they would be facing some criminal charges along with him & did it to keep from going down with him!! I think this because of a that along with the fact they led police straight to his remains the day they were found!!! I also think the mother wrote the things in that notebook or most of it after that first page maybe...also I think this because they have NEVER seemed all that upset over his death, it's as if they had already dealt with it because they had a hand in it...I just don't believe he killed himself & NEVER will!!!!
watch the video of them identifying his belongings... it's such a joke. They knew what was discovered. His parents said nothing and did nothing...but out of no where his dad joins the search..lol
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if Brian’s parents wrote this letter with or without the attorney and placed it at the scene when Brian’s parents “magically” pulled a bag with a very intact notebook out of it. I know it was a dry bag but supposedly the bag was submerged completely. Dry bags are not necessarily air tight. They could just dribble some water on it, which is what it looks like, and tada, theres a suicide note. I would like to see handwriting comparisons from Brian and his parents. Also, the “suicide note” made several statements that I feel would not be in a suicide note, trying to make the parents look better. It was worded very strangely. It looks like multiple people came up with the letter. Which I find extremely compelling now that we have some indication there are multiple potential versions of this “suicide note”. They are all shady as hell and nothing that involves them can be trusted, EVER. We are in the twilight zone at this point. It is insane. The laundries are very disturbed individuals and they raised a very disturbed and narcissistic monster that went on to take an innocent life. He murdered her with his bare hands. We need to see justice in this case. I hope you never stop reporting this case. There is so much more we do not know yet. But we are in the times of the internet and social media. Secrets only stay buried for so long.
Well said!! Thank you
Didn’t the neighbors report “a lot of yelling” coming from the Laundrie home?
my sentiments exactly!!!!
Right, my thoughts exactly this entire time. The truth will eventually be find out, or more of it, if they did shady shit and covered things up. Too many holes in their story to keep it all straight for much longer...
I thought the notebook was found In house of laundries because it came from her van they cleaned out?
Poor little Gaby Petito. So sorry of her parents tragic loss.
JB is the ONLY place I will get my current Gabby Petito news!!!!
His actions alone after her death tell me he killed her in anger on purpose. I think Brian knew gabby was going to leave him because she realized how much of a loser he was and he couldn't have that.
I think she was trying to break up with him. Everybody says he was jealous. Gabby and he had two public arguments and I think she finally realized Brian was not the nice boy she thought he was.
Gabby may have been thinking bout what the park ranger woman was telling her. And desided to call it off.
You two are a great team!
Didn't Roberta schedule the camping spot for the Ft. DeSoto trip? Maybe she knew before Brian came home or just after and scheduled the trip so she could plan what they would do to help Brian. Right after the trip Cassie said she threw her under the bus. The laundries had to know exactly what happened. Bertalino said Chris tried to stop Brian from leaving but couldn't.
JB&BE I am so amazed with you two young men. Congratulations on your success as fantastic, accurate, emotional, and truthful reporters/broadcasters. I don't know either of you but I'm as proud of you as if I was your mother. I wish for health, happiness, and contentment in the coming new year for both of you and your families, et al..
I’ll bet anything they got into a final argument and Gabby told him she’s finished, she wants out of the engagement and maybe even called him a loser. He snapped and killed her.
I also believe she called it off. But she called it off before Brian's first trip home by himself. Momma wanted to help him in the murder of Gabby. I always believed from the start his murdering Gabby was premed. Momma's now letter to be burnt after reading only clarifies my thoughts.
I think he told her that he killed the gay couple at the camping grounds. Maybe Gabby said she couldn’t handle living with him knowing this and perhaps encouraged him to turn himself into the police. Perhaps she threatened to go to the police if he didn’t

I read recently they found the killer of the mobab girls he was found dead you probably can find the story somewhere just trying to help
@@HIKATHYable
I almost don’t believe they have the right guy.
@@Fritzi2253
Honestly I’ve got known idea
Who to believe about the mobab girls maybe I’ll do some more research on google you should to ,, hopefully we will find the answer some where
It’s just a very sad story about the poor girls 💔💔
I really wonder if he really is Dead with that weird letter is like it was all planned to have his body found in that state. Too weird.
JB, your very active and kind person with great personality, very proud of you.🙏🤲
You’re such a kind and likable person. I woke up in middle of night hearing your voice and listening to you thinking…. What an awesome guy! I’m a cat mom too 🐾💕❤️
Your very much APPRECIATED ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
It's been reported that these 8 pages are the "final 8 pages" - does that mean there's more pages in that particular notebook? What about the "journal" that was alleged to also be in that dry bag? And the two alleged other confessions. And now this letter from mommy?
What other documentation might there be? How much of all this stuff have the Petito family seen? Hopefully the civil suit will go ahead, if only so the Petito's get more "secret" info out of the Laundries. Finally, I wonder what Cassie thinks of her brother and her parents by now, and if she would be willing to bear witness against them - she probably knows more than she might think.
wow - how did I miss the release of the notebook??? glad I sat here after the LIVE today 1/12/2023
I still say his mom wrote these pages!! Also I can't believe that all of the officer's K-9's and every FBI agents looking, for all of those hours and could not find anything. But, then Brian's parent's walk in and "find everything" in short time???? I don't believe they should have been even able to cross the yellow tape. And JB... instead of 95% for us not believing the story I don't believe it either so you can make that 96% because, I wasn't available to watch this live.
I agree 💯 with you on the mother writing those pages of notebook...but I'm gonna even go further & say I believe that his parents or just his father maybe shot him & left him there with his backpack(s)...I think this because they were able to take police straight to his remains the day they were discovered so quickly...also I think this because it got to a point they weren't going to be able to get him out of his mess or get him out of the country & also maybe realized that they would also be implicated criminally on some charges as well...I just don't believe he killed himself because I'm a survivor of DV & most abusers & killers are narcissistic & DO NOT kill themselves!!!!! I also follow true crime stories & a majority of the time, the people that have killed someone or multiple people, they don't kill themselves!!!! They keep running until they are finally caught...I can't believe the FBI is not considering this scenario at all!!!! Especially when his mother went to the park & got the Mustang & brought it back home & they mistook her for Brian...they've completely screwed this entire case up OR they've gotten some kind of deal worked out for themselves through their attorney imo....
Also the parents NEVER seemed all that upset over his death as if they had already known & dealt with it...so that's another reason for my thinking on them having something to do with his death...
the reason the K9s didn't find Brian's body in reserve is because authorities weren't looking in that area due to the flooding that was happening. Once the flood waters went down, THEN that area was searched and the body was found immediately.
@@RedSox4JC how many days would you say it took between informing the authorities of that area (since parents knew where it was) and the waters receding?
@@DrSimpleBeauty I think the authorities found Brian because his parents showed them where he could have been and where he frequently went, so I believe the same day.
Love ya JB and Brian..u guys rock!

Good show jb, I will always love your tech sounds, they make for a unique show!
Were Moms and when it comes to our children it's very hard to hide our emotions, especially what she's been through, and still going through. I can only imagine.
I think bl wrote the letter but I think his mother dictated it when bl was still at her house! Then he took it to the reserve. I don’t even think he planned to suicide. I think Roberta instructed him to write this, leave it in the reserve .. I think none of the dirtylaundries expected the water to be overwhelming high when he went for a “ hike”. But after he didn’t return home or wherever his parents were suppose to meet him ie at the mustang his parents went into manage control.
Brian shot himself in the head. Allegedly.
Having personally escaped an abusive relationship, I know for a fact that the parents of the abuser will stand by their child and help in cover-ups. It does not surprise me that Brian’s parents acted this way. They raised the monster and enabled his shoddy morality and actions. They will hurt other people to protect him. They will hurt the victim and the victims family to protect their pathetic little crotch goblin. I have no sympathy for Brian’s parents and I hope they pay, and pay hard.
Hey JB I’m from Texas, lake SAM Rayburn. Thank you for you service sir!
Hello Rehonda how are you doing today?
His "story" reads like a movie script - with the camera focused 99% on him - just ONE brief sentence obliquely says that he murders Gabby, as if it took 2 seconds - no mention of how he did it - as the coroner described, looking into her eyes while he tightened his hands around her neck, for minutes, until she stopped breathing, died, and then he stands up and leaves her there on that beach. Who does NOT call 911, NOT yell for help, in an actual accidental situation???
NOT CREDIBLE that this is what actually happened.
Great comment 👏👏
I think that note was written to protect his face and family..he wrote that w guidance with his mother
It definitely seems like it. The only problem I have with this is that I can’t really imagine any mother helping her son write his suicide note. I’m a mom of two boys late teens and really can’t imagine in any circumstances, doing this. Could be wrong
Unless, he got some help on his little trip away with his mom & family, her thinking that he was going to escape, and then he altered it to make it a suicide note later, when he decided to commit S.
But then the “burn after you read this” thing comes into play and I can’t figure out how that fits into what happened yet. Maybe she sent him Something she wrote to use, not thinking that he was actually going to kill himself. He used her words like I said before, altered it and then burned it as she told him to.
His mom wrote it, & he added to it asking to pick up his things, b/c he didn't like when people litter!!
I completely agree with you!! Bl mother dictated this as bl wrote it! I think!
Thanks for the chill chit chat! I think it's a great idea 💡 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My daughter was a psych major undergrad and went on to get her Masters Degree this past December. I’m proud of her for wanting to help a population that suffers from discrimination.
I think he should be called on the carpet with the lawyers ethics board! Bertolino knows everything!
IMO BL described how he killed Gabby.
She ran from him with no shoes on. They fought. She fell in the water when the blunt force happened. She was screaming for him to stop. He probably left her laying in the water for a while. Then might have tried to carry her to the van, but he was weak. He left her there. The "spooning" is bologna. He might have made a fire so he could see to put the rocks there. He might have done it to make it appear his story made sense.
Sorry, Brian, we know you now. You are not that smart. You cared about no one, but yourself. You think people believed your insanity. I think you were mad that Gabby had more followers & she was so much better than you at everything. Look what jealousy does.
Coward.
I think the exact same thing!
I agree with you on all of that as well!!! But I also don't believe that BL killed himself...I believe that his parents are behind his death...IMO once they realized they couldn't get him out of his mess he made & couldn't get him out of the country, they went out there under the guise to help him hide & shot him...I think this for a few reasons...1) I think they were worried they would face some criminal charges as well once he was taken into custody..2) They took police straight to his remains the day they were found..3) I believe his mother wrote a majority of the notebook if not all of it..4) They have NEVER seemed all that upset over his death so it seems to me they had already made peace with it & dealt with it..5) I'm a survivor of DV & an abuser or killer is a narcissist & they DO NOT kill themselves!!!! It breaks my heart for Gabby's parents & loved ones that the Florida police & FBI screwed this up soooo badly from the get go because had they done their job correctly, there could have been TRUE JUSTICE for Gabby with him sitting behind bars & maybe getting more TRUTHFUL answers to what REALLY happened!!!!
jB and Brian are an awesome team
Never take anyone’s word for anything
Also to let their son who was “just right “to leave her a “hiking trip “and leave his cell phone and personal belongings that was weird
In your list of wrongs you forgot to include him using her credit card
1) The moon was 75% full when she died. It wasn’t pitch black out.
2) The low was 39° on the 27th.
The low was 33° on the 28th.
The description of the weather in his letter makes me lean toward 28th as the night she was killed.
Then he flees to distance himself, taking the 5.8 mile trek to Colter Bay. Maybe he initially planned to use it as an alibi, “find” her dead when he returned, and then call the police? He hitchhikes back in the morning (which would be the 29th, when Norma Jean Jalovec gave him a ride).
Maybe once he got back he realized there was no way he could get away with her murder, so he decided then he was going to go home to say goodbye to his family and then kill himself. Or, he talked to his mom during his return to Spread Creek and they advised him his plan to pretend to be surprised was bad, and to just return home and they’d help him sort it out.
That is exaclty what I think, I think he planned to "find her dead" as an alibi, maybe half eaten my some animal, but when he came back she was intact and no one around he decided to make a run for it.
There is something else, he said they were coming back to the car around sundown when it all happened, but Gabby was seen alive on the 27th at the Merry Piglets around 2pm and the Batoons saw the van and someone closing the door (book, flash light and sandals next to it) around 6/6:30pm that same day... Nicole got the " Stan" text at 4:18pm...
So if there was someone at the van at 6-6:30 How were Gabby and Brian crossing the creek towards the car just a couple of hours later (do you know at what time the sun went down that day?) with Brian not knowing the car was right in front of them? I think they were setting the camp fact he lied about to make it sound like he was disoriented about where they were.
If Brian sent the Stan text that would mean Gabby was dead by 4:18pm and he was at the van when the Batoons passed.
If Gabby sent the text maybe it was because Stan kept calling in the middle of the fight back from the Merry Piglets, she wrote her mom in an upset state similar to the Mohab police stop hence calling the grandfather "Stan", they were setting up the camp while they had light left around the time the Batoons passed and she was killed later that night at the camp site.....
I don't understand how camping works, would someone leave their camp and go have lunch to the Merry Piglets or does a camper never leave their camp unattended? Because I have the feeling the camp was set where they found her or they were setting it after the Merry Piglets, that is the only explanation why Gabby would be found on the other side of the creek and why the spot was perfect to set camp...no way he found that spot in the dark night with an injured freezing person on tow.
Also the Petitos say Bertolino was contacted by the Laundries on the 28th. What is odd is they also changed the camping reservation in Florida for 3 people and if memory serves me they they took a day off the reservation. I mean if he called them, told them something bad enough that prompted them to call their Lawyer, why would go ahead with camping plans?
It is all very confusing. I hope the trial happens and we get to see all the evidence and timeline of events.
Gabby’s family needs justice
I started following you both of course at the Gabby Petitio story disappearance and fell like family and attached to you both listening to the story the updates etc I even turned to y’all on the Robb elementary school shooter updates to Hey JB so I’m here just to say thank you both 🙂😘🙂
I like that you’re going through all of these steps and I love that your morality is coming through full force. I think again we have a situation of moral people dealing with Immoral people. The bottom line for me is the longer it took them to find her body the less chance of them proving how she was killed.
Your so smart and sincere!
@marley great question!
One thing from this story I could see being true is that she didn't want him to leave when she was hurt...not necessarily because the fire might go out but because she thought he wouldn't come back for her. If I was hurt in the middle of nowhere in the dark I'd be scared they'd leave and not be able to find me again. And didn't Brian threaten to take her van and leave her all alone earlier in their trip? She was terrified of him leaving.
Hello Melissa how are you doing today?
He was threatening to do that in the Moab argument.He jumped in the van whilst they were arguing and she had to climb through the side window because he'd locked her out. They argued all the way till the Police pulled them over!!!
There is nothing more terrifying than being left with no money,no clothes,no belongings and nowhere to stay...all on your own with no friends or family to fall back on and no vehicle.He knew that that terrified her...b..t.rd !!!
I want to find out where this “ memo book” was purchased . And I still don’t know why bl flew home during his trip??
Yes yes I wanna know to why he flew back home in August
I think that’s when his mother Roberta wrote the letter for Brian to read on the plane and maybe gabby found it and he didn’t burn it and fbi found it later just my opinion!!
I thought it was because he killed them moab girls that were married and maybe it had something to do with that. I’ve heard a theory that maybe gabby was already dead but idk…. The dates don’t really match with that possibility; do they?
Why didn’t his parents go get Abby’s body and bring it home? The reaction of his parents after Brian came home shows that the parents knew how to cover up abuse.
Watched you of course late but you are so funny! Love your insight and humor!
And if he loved her soooo much???? Why didn't he end his life asking side Gabby???????
I think they released the letter after court on Wednesday knowing that the contents of that letter can’t be used to sway the judges decision if this goes to trial or not. It’s just more bertilino sneakiness
Brilliant reporting
Hello Jen how are you doing today?
And didn't the medical examiner say she was strangled???
Watching from Italy ☺️
Like mother and father
This is exactly what a Narcissist does he hurts her .. this time he went to far n killed her . so now he’s the victim he wants everybody to feel sorry for him… nope never again…
We love you jb! Been amazing since day 1
Letter:
Brian comes home in August.
Roberta and he talk ...he tells her how bad the relationship is
She writes the letter and gives it to him before he leaves.
It says...let me help you break up with her. I can call her or you two come home and I will tell her.
He gets to Gabby....Gabby finds it and reads it.
That's what prompts their fights...
I don’t think so.
Remember how they said how did he aim the gun the way he did because he was right handed
I do t think he mercifully killed her that was to torment her parents, I’d like to hear the coroners take on the injuries he was referring to. He was being vengeful.
That notebook reminds me of the Ramsey's Ransom "notebook". Both too long, too much explanation, none of it true, story sounds like a survival movie. Nope. Don't believe it.
Thanks for the mental health break it definitely was relief ❤
I don’t believe anything in this notebook. It asks more questions then answers like Gabby’s body was found 700/1000 meters from the van, the creek only had ankle deep water in it, they had camped on the area, Gabby was so thin her body didn’t weigh much and he could if having trouble carried her on his back, the phone’s were working because he used them after, there we’re people camping close by and he could have gotten help, he could have gone to the van for clothes and blankets, but worse then anything he didn’t get help as so as daylight came but just drove off and made text messages from her to family and why didn’t he just let her fall asleep because strangling someone take’s a long time and a lot of energy that could have been used to get to the car. Nothing adds up.
Hello Lee how are you doing today?
Pray tell me why the mother and father didn't take him to the police, or church minster, l believe the mother wrote this note, it says it in her words, they both should admit to their wrong doing, a heater in the van would have warmed her up, unbelievable l have watched from New Zealand🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
Do petitos have a investigator, how are they getting all this info, I also want to know what was in the storage unit
Hello Brandy how are you doing today?
It going good 👍
first page looks like it was written leaning on a knee the way it curves
Great getting to know more about you.. humanist...good deal
Bertolini lawyer is not necessarily to be trusted. He admitted he knew and was a long time friend of the family. To me that would be a conflict of interest for him to be the Laundry's lawyer, especially in this case. He knows it all! Of course,he was protecting Brian and his parents, but do I trust all of his actions or words? No. He was always trying to protect himself as well.
