Police bodycam footage has been released of officers speaking to Gabby Petito and her boyfriend Brian Laundrie in Utah after they responded to a 911 call of a domestic incident a month before she was reported missing.
The Moab City Police Department on Thursday released the hour-long footage of their interaction with the couple when they pulled over their white van outside Arches National Park in Moab on Aug. 12.
In the footage, obtained by ABC7, Petito sobbed as she spoke to an officer.
“I have really bad OCD. I was apologizing to him saying I’m sorry I’m so mean,” Petito told the officer.

If he’d just driven off, he’d be explaining that to the cops instead of refusing to talk to them or her parents at all.
Her parents are footing the bill. I can’t see them making that much on their little blog.
If he is the manipulative type he knows just the buttons to set her off. Then when he’s being taped, or watched by others he knows to let her go off while playing the rational BF.
He may have killed her in a fit of rage because he wanted out of the relationship but knew she wouldn’t let him go.
The creep killed her. Pray I’m wrong.
How did I know that?
They need to look at the bottom of the cliffs they hiked.
Same age as my oldest grandson. A large percentage of women in that age group these days are a little out of control. As others in this thread have alluded to... the better looking men and women are, the more likely that they have been allowed to get away with bad behavior and it gets worse over time. I know this from painful experience. People don't put up with it from ugly people so they can either improve their behavior or be alone.
She said he was telling her to calm down why didn’t they ask,what were you upset about?
Seems like a obvious question.
She gets upset at times,about what?
It’s difficult but it has been done.
I am aware of that.
I am sorry with what you went through... I am super happy that you are in a happy/fabulous relationship now. :)
Without a body, there is NO case at all. Nothing. He either has to admit he did something to her, OR, they have to find a body. Otherwise, no charges can be filed.
Most of the video has no dialogue but towards the end, you can hear Gabby speaking with sort of a sing-song little girl voice. Sort of reminds me of Laura Palmer from that old Twin Peaks TV show.
The fight broke out at the younger lesbian gal’s workplace. They had posted there had been a creeper around where they were camping and if they ended up dead, he did it. IIRC, they were at the same bar as Gabby and her bf the night before. All too much of a coincidence.
I’m thinking he is the creeper and Gabby knew. Just my opinion.
“... or they have to find a body. Otherwise, no charges can be filed..”
Wrong. There was a case in my county decades ago where a Mom went missing. No body. They had a bit of evidence from their young child... but she could only testify that she saw her mom’s legs on the ground. He was convicted and they found her body AFTER the conviction via a jail house snitch. May be a harder case to prove but you don’t need a body.
You are correct. I did. My mistake. There have been a VERY small percentage of cases prosecuted with circumstancial evidence. In the vast majority of cases, you need a body or blood evidence. Even with boatloads of all kinds of evidence, the corrupt judicial process could not convict O.J. Simpson, could it? Let it go.
Okay, correct.
“I’m thinking he is the creeper and Gabby knew. Just my opinion.”
Oh WOW! That is a great analysis. Fits some pieces together.
Cuz yer smart?
Reading both of your comments on this thread, my first thought was about the case against Thomas Capano and the murder of Anne Marie Fahy back in the 90s. Capano had been a high profile attorney in Delaware, and was convicted without a body every being found.
Wikipedia actually has a page dedicated to murder convictions without bodies. It’s certainly not common, but it’s by no means unheard of. Here’s a link to the United States convictions:

I was replying to an absolute no body no trial.
It may be hard to do but but it can happen because it has happened.
