Brian Laundrie manhunt: Florida park documents confirm family camped out after Gabby Petito disappearance

NORTH PORT, Fla. – Brian Laundrie’s mom Roberta did check in to a Florida park about 75 miles north of the family’s home earlier this month, records obtained by Fox News show.

Laundrie, 23, vanished on Sept. 14 – although his parents didn’t say anything until three days later. His 22-year-old fiancée Gabby Petito was found dead in Wyoming on Sept. 19 – weeks after the couple was seen camping near the site of her remains. The coroner later ruled her death a homicide.

Duane "Dog" Chapman, also known as Dog the Bounty Hunter, announced Saturday he was entering the search for Laundrie, and tips quickly poured in. He told Fox News he received a heads-up on Monday that Laundrie’s parents spent the night in Fort De Soto Park with their son twice in early September from Sept. 1 to 3 and Sept. 6 to 8.

The documents confirm Chapman’s suspicion that the Laundries went camping at the Fort De Soto Park outside St. Petersburg between his return from out West on Sept. 1 and the day Petito’s mother reported her missing, Sept. 11. They show the family checked in on Sept. 6 and out on Sept. 8 – but there's no record on the document of them the week prior.

"I will no longer give that dog credibility or dignify his false claims with the time of my reply," Steven Bertolino, Laundrie’s attorney, told Fox News. However he admitted told local media that the family camped out on Sept. 6 and 7 and that "they all left the park."

The documents show the checkout was actually recorded on Sept. 8 – three days before Petito officially became a missing person.

“iirc the offer of a room was made only to brian since he was the nominally injured party.”

The offer was to Brian but he was given the choice on who would take the room.

Selfish (stupid southerners and republicans) Brian took the room leaving Gabby alone on the road with a van she said she was not familiar driving.

Why are you speculating?

I did not read the claim you make. I suppose it. Oils be true. However...

I am not certain that we have all the details of the inputs that went into the decisions made on that day.

As to politics I am not certain that it has much relevance to the final outcomes of the story.

Gabby survived that day and that evening apparently unharmed, so the concern about her lack of van driving ability would appear to be a red herring in The long run... imho...

Not a red herring. Part of his character.
