An area in Bridger-Teton National Forest where authorities found remains believed to be 22-year-old Gabby Petito now has a makeshift memorial made of white stones arranged in a cross.

The memorial was spotted Monday evening at the Spread Creek Dispersed Campsite. Law enforcement awaits an autopsy scheduled for Tuesday to confirm whether the body belongs to the missing 'van-life' woman...

DailyMail.com exclusively found the location where Gabby’s transit van was filmed by a Youtuber on August 27th at the Spread Creek campsite. The remains were found not far from where the van was photographed.

The location was found Monday just minutes after law enforcement left the campground around 5:40 p.m...

...Forensic experts have been going over Petito’s computer hard drive for crucial clues after police in North Port, Florida, got a court warrant to search the device.

The computer was with her boyfriend Brian Laundrie when he returned to Florida ...

...The warrant reads: ‘On August 27th, 2021, the subject’s mother, Nichole Schmidt, received an “odd text” from the subject. The text message read, “Can you help Stan, I just keep getting his voicemails and missed calls”.'...

more evidence and a sort of closure. the DM took a poignant sunset picture of the suspected site where Gabby's remains were found. Other photos inside if you wish.

Wife and I were travelling a few months back and we met a beautiful French girl who was travelling Australia after landing here just after covid started. She was so trusting and had met a guy she was jsnging with. I told her, in front of him, to text her mother the registration number of any car she travelled in andcthe name of the driver. I pray that she is ok

Because there was only 1 person missing in the entire US of A and no murders during the entire period the press was fixated on her. They have to keep up the circuses because everyone is running out of bread.

Try multitasking.

Hard to believe, but it is possible to focus on more than one issue at a time.;-)

What’s exceptional about this case is, within 4 days of the bodycam going public, the deceased was allegedly found. And it happened in large part because the camping/van-travel community has a sense of connection via youtube, and people tend to video where they go and what they do at a rate not even imagined 30 years ago. It was a camping-community person who filmed Petito’s van that noone else noticed, and was able to review their footage during a narrow timeframe which gave the police a solid starting gps - with landmarks.

The Petito case may encourage police to be a bit more accepting in some cases of asking for help earlier in the process, so the window of opportunity for the guilty to cover their tracks narrows to days instead of months.

Could you please tell us why "dropping off some Teddy Bears" would EASE anything in this situation???

The ONLY thing that would help is PRAYERS....NOT Teddy Bears. I hope you are an 18 yr. old girl.

Interesting to hear of her talking about “Stan”. The grandfather although she never used that name. No doubt a code word. (Growing up we had our own nickname for our grandfather and grandmother that no stranger would guess! Mom, dad, everyone in the family used them.) I was pretty old by the time I knew their real names!

My family has a code word to try to drop into “normal” conversation in case something is wrong. (Started off being the code word if they ever were to be picked up from school by a friend or neighbor).

Although my wife knows that if I call her by a cute nickname (Honey bun, Snookums or some such) she will dial 911!

What if he didn’t kill her but left her and Gabby died from exposure or animals?

To the FReepers who defend Laundrie and call Gabby "psychotic", from the posted article:

911 audio captured a caller in Utah reporting a domestic abuse incident that claimed Laundrie slapped Petito.

They just drove off. They're going towards Main Street. They made a right onto Main Street from Moonflower. We drove by him, a gentleman was slapping the girl,' the man continues.

'He was slapping her?' the sheriff asks.

'Yes.

Probably placed there by the author of the story.

Yes, there are other disasters on-going but this action by the press/MSM is typical! Remember the OJ Simpson car chase? Even worse was the Manson Gang, the Childcare Scandals or the Lindberg Kidnapping!

The MSM reacts to ‘true crime’ like sharks to blood-in-water because they know this involves people’s psyche, wondering how and why innocence falls to evil!

This story was not generated by MSM. Quite the contrary. The details emerged via social media. Critical clues were identified and released via social media. The MSM has struggled to keep up with events.

If the MSM is talking about this missing young Petito woman then they're not talking about Pedo Joe Biden and his many many failures and scandals. Nothing more nothing less. The Petito woman case is sucking all the oxygen out of the daily news cycle thus saving Pedo Joe from his many failed press conferences that are getting worse by the day. The WH is so desperate for anything that takes them out of the news spotlight.

Assuming that the pathologist rules “homicide” I hope they find that filthy punk hanging from a rope somewhere or...better still...they find his partially eaten body in a spot where gators hang out.

Maybe we'll find out today perhaps as the local coroner is supposed to do the autopsy today I've been hearing. Maybe he can hopefully provide us all with some answers.
