Police ask public for help in search for missing 22-year-old Gabby Petito
CBS ^ | September 16, 2021 | Zoe Christen Jones

Posted on 09/16/2021 10:57:08 AM PDT by DJ MacWoW

Todd Garrison, the police chief in North Port, said no criminality is suspected at this time. No physical search teams are currently on the ground as investigators are working to narrow down areas to investigate, he said. "We have resources and law enforcement partners that are out in the field following up tips and leads but as far as a grid search right now, we're still trying to narrow down geographic areas," he said in a news conference Thursday.

Police have said her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, has refused to speak with law enforcement but Garrison said investigators are solely focused on finding Petito. "We share the frustration with the world right now. Two people went on a trip, one person returned and that person that returned isn't providing us with any information," Garrison said. "My focus isn't to bring Brian in right now. My focus is to find Gabby."

Her father, Joe Petito, asked the public to come forward with any information that could help investigators. "I'm asking for help from the parents of Brian and I'm asking for the help of the family members and friends of the Laundrie family as well," Petito said. "Whatever you can do to make sure my daughter comes home, I'm asking for that help. There is nothing else that matters to me now."

“Gabby has/had serious psychological/emotional issues including intense anxiety, perhaps psychosis, etc..”

OR, she was having intense anxiety and emotional issues because she was terrified, especially after she saw, knew or was involved in the shooting of the two women. IMO, this guy was way too calm, cool and controlled, under the circumstances and way too willing to let her take sole responsibility.

There's a pic of Gabby at this link, posted on FR, that looks like she was smacked in the eye.

And there’s this...

Utah investigators ‘not ruling anything out’ in double homicide near missing Gabby Petito incident

https://www.foxnews.com/us/utah-gabby-petito-crystal-turner-kylen-schulte-brian-laundrie

From the article-

“Schulte worked nearby at a co-op grocery store called Moonflower – the organic, herb-scented bodega where Gabby Petito, 22, and Brian Laundrie, 23, got into an emotional argument that prompted a police response on Aug. 12.”

” records from both phones”

If he killed her, which he probably did, he must likely has both phones, or disposed of hers. Not a lot of help.

The car GPS would be good.

“Crystal Turner, 38, and Kylen Schulte, 24, were last seen on Aug. 13 at Woody’s Tavern on Main Street in Moab. They were found shot to death in the South Mesa area of the La Sal Loop Road five days later.”

Considering many of the responses here, I’ll never cooperate with police.

“Free Republic” except for vaccines and due process apparently.

Laundries problem is that he refuses to say anything. It makes him look guilty as all heck. He shows up, alone, with her van and won’t speak.

I admit it doesn’t look good at all.
On this and other threads, FReepers are calling for him to be kidnapped, tortured and killed. This without any clue about his guilt or innocence.
It’s insane.

records are kept on the carrier end.

heck my android phone has (had. I keep location off now) a list of all the places I have been on google servers.

you don’t need the phone. you need the cooperation of the carrier or manufacturer.

they will know the last location of the phone and have a really good bread crumb trail to follow.

that smart phone is to smart to let you get away with murder if you bring it along and powered on.

Did the boyfriend do it? Probably. However, bodycam video from the police stop last month shows Petito crying because they were arguing and she was OCD. God only knows what finally happened, but it doesn’t look good for the guy.

Video of police cam. Over an hour of footage.

I’m starting to get Gabby Fatigue.
She seems dippy at least and could have left the Scooby Doo Mobile herself.

“Give Brian the rubber hose treatment and he will reveal where her body is.”


So after his beating he leads cops to her body. I am not a lawyer, but this tactic would almost guarantee that Brian would walk away a free man. Poison fruit of the poison tree.

Right now, there is no evidence that a crime has been committed. I’m sure there has been, but without a body or witnesses, there is nothing to hold the boyfriend on.

My son in laws sister used to beat herself in the face and blame her baby daddy.
It happens.
I am not 100% sold that Brian did anything to Gabby.
He may have abandoned her in the desert, but maybe he did not kill her by his own hand.

It is all unsubstantiated speculation. Really nasty things are being said about her too.

Oddly enough, yes. Six county trials, one state, and two Federal.

Except the van belonged to her. Why would she leave it? And : Laundrie told police he and Petito both suffered from a mental condition and that neither take medication,

I just learned about the camp site murder connection.. I agree with your assessment. She couldn't handle his killing of those two women and was in a constant state of remorse/anxiety/fear..

I'm thinking now that he offed those two women, then offed her later. At the time of the body cam incident he had already committed double murder and she knew it and was terrified about it.

SHE SHOULD'VE FESSED UP, but she was in a total state of fear.

Wow, and you're not even on the scene. That was good.
