Saw this snippet - once again I am not sure if it's true - they would be an accessory to his fleeing a crime I guess. Should have left his car there.
Twitter: So Brian drove himself to the Carlton reserve on Tuesday...His parents retrieve his car from there on Thursday...clearly expecting their son not to need it/return...then report him missing Friday

Brian Laundrie’s Parents Picked Up His Car From Reserve After He Disappeared
North Point police say Brian Laundrie’s parents went to the Carlton Reserve this week after their son went there and brought the Mustang convertible he drove back to their home. The Laundries called police to their home on Friday to tell them Brian was missing, that he had gone to the...
The truth is, there are dozens of cases even of pretty white women that don't have any significant exposure. I know about them because I cruise true crime boards, but they've gotten near zero national attention. There is definitely an element of serendipity and unpredictability on what makes an individual case "catch".
For the most part, being white, female and middle class is almost necessary, but it's certainly not sufficient.
Yeah...this case isn't necessarily a super great example of the bias. This case is nutso for a lot of reasons and would get coverage regardless.
Also not a lawyer, but unless there is digital evidence that Brian admitted to them that he had committed a crime, wouldn't the parents have plausible deniability for all those crimes?
She wasn't reported missing until the 11th, neighbor says he was acting like nothing happened when he returned home and then he slipped away when the police started closing in, but still not charged with any crime. So in theory the parents might actually or just say they didn't know anything.
While I agree that it helps she's a good looking white girl, I think the thing that started the attention was that he just drove back by himself and didn't report anything to anyone. Maybe that wouldn't have vaulted the story to what it is now if it were someone else, it was just an odd thing.
With no warrant out for his arrest I’m not sure the family can be legally compelled to not do those things.
Yup. For all we know the son just said in August, "We broke up, I already dropped her off, and I promised I'd clean the van before giving it back." As a parent I'd have helped with cleaning and making sure everything was still functional with the vehicle, understanding that if anything is perceived as wrong with it, the ex-gf will likely put the kid on public blast. Been there, done that.
At some point his parents should have suspected if they use any social media, or are at all close to the Petito's. But that may not have been for a week or more. I'm confident all websites, messages, etc are already being pieced together and the FBI already knows when the parents knew.
I did 23andMe and my relatives were teasing me that they couldn’t get away with anything now. I think they’re right. 😏
There are rumors and suspected “sightings” of him in several places around Florida now. I wouldn’t be shocked to learn these were planted by LE to make him think he was successfully evading capture so he’d stay in place and make a mistake.
I hope he does. Soon.
I hope he does. Soon.
It's either him or bigfoot.
Cops probe pic of Florida man & say it looks like missing Brian Laundrie

It started at the message board level, then Brian Entin went to the parents house on Tuesday. There was just enough gradual updates on the case, either through internet sleuths or the cops, that it kept enough attention, and growing attention on the case. The weird behavior by the family, caused most of this. Had Brian filed a missing persons case, this never gets to this level in my opinion. Had Brian shown some type of interest this case doesn't get to this level. There doesn't appear to be any sympathy, and remorse in the actions up to this point, it is to either minimize the information to either get off in a court case, or 2 to run away and either hide or commit suicide. Yes I am postulating here, but from the beginning you could tell he wasn't a mastermind. Actually he was pretty stupid. He preserved the body by burying it. Great for the family getting some closure not for him. If the body had been left out in the elements, you could have gone the route that Finance was suggesting of due to the elements she passed away plausible doubt, plus then the body would have been picked clean after nearly 30 days by scavengers and insects. I am starting to slow down on this case, a because they found her and b. I don't feel he is worth my time. He appears to be absolute scum. I could care less what his outcome is. Once he is found that will be interesting, but at this point his fate is sealed one way or another.
It's either him, or Moby.It's either him or bigfoot.

The guy in the purple shirt on the left has a sleeve tattoo on his arm. The potential defendant has tattoos but no sleeve tattoo on his arm.
This story blew up because she was a vlogger that people followed and she suddenly disappeared and that triggered internet sleuths to go into overdrive. Yes, it helped a lot that she was a pretty young blonde, but if she wasn't streaming her life for consumption 24/7 it probably would have taken longer for people to be aware of the story.
Yes, if she was a brown girl from a rough neighborhood we'd never have heard of her.

Yep.
It's the "more affluent" people who have online presence for mass-following after any tragedy. That's really the common element here.
Yeah, as others have mentioned, it's pretty tough to get away with murder today. But if you WERE going to get away with it, you pretty much couldn't be more set up for success than this guy. He's already traveling through the most remote wilderness in the country. Her whereabouts were only vaguely known...he's basically got hundreds and hundreds of square miles to make this happen.
Basically, get her to a remote precipice, throw the body off and call 911 and say she jumped. Or dispose of the body remotely, then say you had a fight and she stormed off at a remote pull off somewhere.
And I get that the proper legal strategy might be to not say a word, but the behavior to simply show up at home, not report her missing, not tell her family what happened...I'd say it's actually poor strategy, because it guarantees that everyone knows you did it. They way that should work is that you tell her family whatever story...she ran away or whatever, then you refuse to speak to the cops.
Flat out refusal to say to anyone the last time you saw her is poor strategy unless you're absolutely certain that you've committed the 100% perfect crime. It's basically saying "Yes, I'm guilty but I'd like to see you prove it."
If you have a story, there's at least some chance the cops waste time and resources chasing other leads. If the case is tough enough, there's a chance the authorities just say "Yep suicide" or whatever to wash their hands of a tough prosecution.
The way he's handled this ensures the pressure will be so high there will be a prosecution.
I was right there with you. Never been arrested (knock on wood) and never sent my samples to Ancestry or 123Me. I always thought those were a front to populate the Federal DNA database.
Plus whether he knew it or not, the previous cops had already sided with him. He had enough to prove doubt. Now I think the cops got it wrong on the first stop, but that doesn't matter. He could have stated she had a mental breakdown. There is a reason why Mandy Patinkin quit criminal minds after a couple seasons, stating the material was just to emotionally challenging. This case pisses me off. Yeah I can see where he screwed up as a criminal but I just don't understand his thought process and I don't want to. I am glad he buried her, at the very least it showed some respect for her body - the absolute minimalist amount. But if he did it in a fit of rage during a fight, he should have just owned up to it.
No I don’t believe so. There’s still a lot of information being held closely and so speculation takes over.
its my understanding that their raw footage shows a body. However, they never aired this.
Was Gabby Buried? Helicopter Footage Captures Discovery of Body
Search crews found the body of Gabby Petito Sunday in the remote Spread Creek Dispersed Camping area of Bridger-Teton National Forest, adjacent to Grand Teton National Park, where the 22-year-old last spoke with her family. A helicopter crew from KSL in Salt Lake City was overhead when crews...www.crimeonline.com
In another twitter post, she narrates part of the footage and suggests that after setting up the canopy is attention is focused on a small grove a trees approx 20 yards away. At that time, it is beleived that they, news heli, see the body. Naturally they cut the footage....
If Gabby was buried, that would shoot down the speculation, a couple of weeks ago by one of the local news organizations, that she died of exposure. It would definitely be the most damning bit of evidence so far, until the actual cause of death is released.
I posted this video yesterday. She wasn't buried and her body was visible to the news helicopter. The reporter states that the body is visible but that they won't be showing it.
Thanks, appears I missed that, I did delete my other posts as they were in error.
Gabby was still alive on Aug 27th at 1 pm. They were at a restaurant named Merry Piglets. Apparently the potential defendant was arguing with the hostess and Gabby was crying. This was confirmed by the restaurant.

Regarding the person seen in Baker FL on a deer cam. Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office has identified him. He is someone familiar to several of their deputies.
More on the potential defendant acting like an ass at Merry Piglets at 1 pm on Aug 27th
"Nina Celie Angelo told Fox News she saw Mr Laundrie arguing with several female staff at Tex-Mex restaurant Merry Piglets between 1pm and 2pm on 27 August.
Mr Laundrie reportedly left and returned the restaurant approximately four times during the row, and Ms Angelo described his body language as “aggressive”. Ms Petito apologised to staff about his behaviour, the witness said."

I just checked the Go Pro video from the Red White and Bethune bus. They drove past the van on the 27th around 6 to 6:30 pm.

I was about to add the skinny white dude with the beard and shaved head might possibly be one of the most common 'looks' these days in the male over 20 crowd. These guys are dime a dozen and the fact they found a guy resembling him is not a surprise at all.
I haven't bothered to read this entire thread but isn't it possible that he abused her mentally/physically and she eventually had a breakdown or decided to leave him abruptly, for her safety, and actually died of exposure being unprepared for it? Obviously a COD determination will answer this question but it isn't yet available to the public.
Notice in the picture of her on the road side in LE's interaction. She is holding two bottles of water. Who does this realistically? Unless you were about to leave and walk off and wanted to be sure you had enough water for a bit.
If you had you would have known that the coroner has ruled the death homicide.
