Florida fugitive Brian Laundrie’s attorney said Wednesday that Christopher Laundrie would begin assisting authorities in the search for his son – who was last seen on Sept. 13, just days after his fiancée Gabby Petito officially became a missing person.
The FBI later uncovered Petito’s remains at a remote Wyoming campsite on Sept. 19.
"Chris Laundrie was asked to assist law enforcement in their search for Brian at the preserve today," Steve Bertolino, the family's attorney, told Fox News Wednesday night. "Since the preserve has been closed to the public, Chris has not been able to look for Brian in the only place Chris and Roberta believe Brian may be."
He added that North Port police "had to postpone" the elder's Laundrie's participation and that he did not take part in the search Wednesday, which saw an increased police presence after resources appeared to have been drawn down over the weekend.
"Chris and Roberta are hopeful there will be another opportunity to assist," he added, referring to both of Brian Laundrie's parents.
Josh Taylor, the North Port Police Department's chief spokesman, told Fox News that his department did not ask for Chris Laundrie's involvement – nor did police "postpone" it.
"In no world would we be the agency asking the family to help search in an FBI led investigation," he said, deferring further questions to the FBI, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
And Pat Diaz, a former Miami-Dade homicide detective who also served on FBI task forces, said he doubted federal investigators would bring in a suspect's father to help their search.
"They may have found stuff in the reserve for the father to identify," he said. "Not a body, but belongings."

As for Daddy Laundrie being "excited" to search in the swamp, this should prompt intensified efforts to search for BL outside the swamp.
Paying round trip airfare from SLC to Florida would pay for how many months of a storage unit? This tale doesn’t pass the sniff test.
Your least favorite bounty hunter searched areas in and around Ft. DeSoto State Park. Different county.
Agree. He's back peddling at high speed without a rear view mirror. Perhaps his non-client Cassie has signaled she is ready to spill some more beans.
Funny
Havent heard from BowWow lately, wheres he at these days ?
Perhaps LE wants an opportunity to talk with Papa Laundrie alone, without Roberta. Hmmmmm...
This is purely an effort on two levels:
First, it attempts to deflect the criticism of Brian’s parents for their seeming indifference to his disappearance.
Second, it puts the scent back into the preserve for the authorities to waste time and come to the conclusion that Brian was eaten by alligators and will likely never be found.
Both of these premises are fallacies, though, and concocted by the parents and their shady attorney to deflect from the probability that they took him to the DeSoto park, had a little farewell party, and put him on a boat to likely Belize or another such country.
So many angles can be possible here………
Daddy knows son is t there but wants to keep up the impression he is.
Daddy is worried son killed himself and now wants to know.
Daddy plans of misleading the search teams as clues pop up.
The Only possibility that isn’t true is Daddy trying to be honorable.
Yeah, but they can only feed on a living fugitive.
about a decade ago, i paid over 400/month for storage(in LA area) which was greater than the cost of RT coast to coast airfare at that time . So to me the cost savings is likely real.
Maybe they need dad to identify him.
North Port, FL is not LA. Not even close. Climate controlled for ~$145/month. Try again.
His estranged daughter held a press conf and told everyone he was a fraud and a fake. He got turned down by two stations for new show “laundry hunt”. Next the “stage-three maggots” will want a raise. The poor guy just can’t catch a break.
1. Dad is being interviewed, hopefully spilling beans;
2. Brian has been located alive in the swamp. Dad is trying to talk him out.
“ Papa Lanudrie has been in the swamp for several hours. A couple of theories:
1. Dad is being interviewed, hopefully spilling beans;
2. Brian has been located alive in the swamp. Dad is trying to talk him out.”

Wow. Very interesting.
Either of those are good.
Actually, the girl is Beths daughter, not his.
3.5 hours spent in the swamp. Appears it was an opportunity for Papa Laundrie to bond with LE. Nothing recovered from the swamp adventure.
I read that Papa Laundrie just showed LE where he and Sonny boy hike.
3.5 hours hiking in the swamp allows for bonding, whether father and son, or fugitive’s father and fbi. 😉
