Officers say Brian Laundrie has also disappeared after Petito went missing during couple’s US road trip

Mystery surrounding the whereabouts of 22-year-old Gabrielle “Gabby” Petito deepened late on Friday, after police in Florida said they were working with the FBI to locate 23-year-old Brian Laundrie, Petito’s fiance who is described as “a person of interest” in her disappearance.

Garrison, the police chief, told ABC: “I can’t speculate as to why he’s not talking, but he has the pieces to the puzzle that we need to find Gabby.”

Nope. It cannot and POI has zero legal definition according to the courts and DOJ. None, zip, nada.

The minute a reasonable person would form the idea that this person had something to do with it, the term is “suspect”. That allows the police to further investigate. That investigation can find nothing, exonerate, or find evidence that elevates things to charges being filed.

And it is not universally used except by PIOs, the media, FBI twits, hit TV shows, and housewives. No professional uses it because there is no status where you can be a person of interest without being a suspect.

The fact that they are interested in you MEANS you are a suspect. Otherwise they would seek him as a witness or possible witness.

That Rudolph had his mind right.

Full urban survival.

If I was police or FBI, I’d notify libraries to BOL……they usually have free computers to use for the internet.

Monitor his parents email too. He’s gonna need money.

Missing pretty white girl syndrome.

People get killed everyday, but the Murdoch media and the old biddies with their “true crime” programming choose to focus on this case.

You don’t have a clue what you are talking about. I’ve practiced criminal law for for 30 years and have 100 jury trials under my belt. Neither POI or suspect have a “legal definition” as neither is defined by statute. They are just words or terms which have their general meaning. Neither has any bearing on how police can conduct their investigation. I still read hundreds of affidavits and police reports every year and POI is routinely used. Using the term suspect too early allows a defense attorney to use the “jumped to conclusions” argument at trial which has been quite successful at trial in the past. That’s the reason police began using the POI terminology.

If he has nothing to hide, why is he acting as if he’s guilty?

Still can’t bring themselves to use the word suspect.


Right now there is no proof that a crime has occurred. There, of course is a lot of suspicion, but until Gabby turns up, there is nothing to charge him with.

Many years ago, a friend of mine bought a house where a murder occurred. Woman living alone went missing. There was blood in her house and a juvenile was found with her car maybe 50 miles away. There was some blood in the trunk. They couldn’t charge the kid with anything, even though they knew he probably killed her. There was no body, just blood, but no way to show the blood was hers. There was no complaint of a stolen car even.

They locked the kid up for other reasons they had proof of and hoped he’d confess to a cellmate. A few months later her body was found and he was charged and convicted of her murder. He killed her in the house (my friend who had bought the house ended up cleaning up the last of the blood), put her body in the trunk, dumped in a ditch along a highway and then drove to a lake to unwind where he was arrested.

“He probably killed himself.”

Yeah. Watched the police bodycam video of the couple’s domestic abuse stop in Utah. That guy will NOT do well in prison.

There’s been plenty of searching from the air. You just can’t really see anything in most of that area.
