Did he kill her?

You're right. It's not personal for me. But I have known 2 people, who are good friends, who were unjustly accused of crimes. Both times the charges were dropped, but only after a lot of legal expenses, anguish, and damage to their reputations.

IF we just look at this thread, there are so many people who automatically think Laundrie is guilty of murder, even without knowing if she's dead, I'm not surprised he isn't talking.
I don't know if he is guilty or not, but if he knows something he should give that information, even just the route they went on and where he last saw her.

He and his family definitely need to talk. If she is/was his fiancée and she's missing, he'd be all over the news trying to find out what happened. So @Finance85 , I get people are wrongfully accused, but with the Police, FBI, and her family all asking questions, and this being a national news story, his silence and unwillingness to talk is damning to him. He's guilty of something. What that is, we don't know yet.

The silence certainly won't help him with a jury, but if that is all the jury has, then I am not sure how a guilty verdict can possibly stand. He's looking out for Number 1. I'm not saying it's the right thing to do morally, but if his goal is to avoid prison (whether he's responsible or not), he's playing his cards correctly. Even if he wasn't involved, it is the "legally smart" thing to stay quiet. That said, obviously, the relationship was not good if he wasn't involved and he still won't help.

Right now it appears he is hoping she is never found, dead or alive. I am sure the vehicle is being combed through inch by inch to see if there are any blood droplets, and his phone, see when and if he called anyone. I am sure they are also checking what towers his phone was bouncing off of. I wonder if the vehicle had gps coordinates. He doesn't appear to be a genius criminal, if he did this I am sure he left more than enough of a trail for the investigators to follow. It all comes down to can they find her. The next is was he connected to the other 2 murders in Moab or was it all coincidence they were in the same area, when 2 other women were killed.

Yeah, you are right. The body is necessary, or some ultra-suspicious physical evidence. But a simple discovery of a drop of blood here or there or hair is a tough hill for the prosecution. They were living in the thing. There is going to be hair, blood, sweat, etc. As sick as it is to say, as an outsider, this is a fascinating story to watch.

Also, the text sent on the 30th about no cell service at the park. Then he rolls into Florida two days later.

If he sent the text from her phone, can they tell where that phone was when the text was sent? Obviously, they don’t have the physical phone,
 
Finding the body isn't necessarily a requirement. I've mentioned this on here & told the story in more detail on our old board, but 5 or 6 years ago I had a client who was arrested & charged with murder in the disappearance of his first wife (who'd vanished 10 or 12 years prior to that). His family owned a big piece of property in Tennessee; his wife disappeared one day & has never been found. She didn't show up to pick up their kid after school; he claimed that he'd left for work in the morning, got the call from school to pick up the kid, and found that his bank account had been emptied. A couple of months later, he moved to FL with his new girlfriend, who'd been their babysitter.
He was arrested on murder charges, in jail without bond until the trial. Right before the trial started, he plead guilty to manslaughter, sentenced to time served plus another year or something like that. Still claimed innocence but "just wanted it all behind him." They've still never found her body.
 
More updates today, questionable on whether they are credible or not, leading towards credible. Couple possibly picked up Brian hitchhiking near Jackson on August 28th. Said he had been camping on his own for several day from his fiance. Gabby had also texted a friend on the 27th, to meet up with them on the 29th. She never showed up. The timeline appears to be tightening up a bit.
 
I watched way too much of that police body camera footage and it kinda changed my opinion. He seemed like the calm and rational one and even offered to go to jail for her at one point. His silence looks terrible and I don’t understand why an innocent person wouldn’t talk, but now I’m more skeptical that something strange is going on.
 
Lots of people think they have the perfect plan, until they don't. Sometimes the body is found, but not always.

Yes, they can tell.

BTW, the vehicle they were living in was hers, and he drove it back to Florida without her. Very strange.
 
Or maybe she just told him to stop, he did, and she got out and he drove off. Maybe it was because of an argument, or maybe she needed to pee, or maybe she wanted to see a sight and he didn't.

Doesn't matter. We can all speculate. We can all tend to believe he's guilty outside the courtroom. There's no evidence the guy did anything criminal. There's not even evidence of a crime.
And if that’s the case there’d be no reason not to talk to the police.
