BREAKING...Coroner confirms body found where Gabby Petito search is underway in Wyoming, identity un

[mystery-ak]

Any thoughts on whether perhaps he committed suicide.

I never thought he would commit suicide....

I never thought he would commit suicide....

Fair enough; however, if they're searching with a cadaver dog, that implies that there may now be a basis for the view that perhaps he committed suicide.

[mystery-ak]

Why would the parents be there unless to identify personal belongings....they sure wouldn't be able to identify the body.

Fox also said there are two areas with body parts...first thought that an animal dragged the body..

Why would the parents be there unless to identify personal belongings....they sure wouldn't be able to identify the body.

True enough; but depending on the type of personal possessions, that might indicate that they were discarded in prelude to a suicide.  I recall reading once that, with surprising uniformity, people who commit suicide by jumping off of tall structures frequently take off their shoes and place other objects from their pockets in their shoes.

Maybe he killed someone else and hopes the decomposed body will be identified as him and he can assume another identity.

Possible, but IMHO, far-fetched and unlikely.  Particularly since DNA can be extracted even from decade's old bones, and could be easily compared with his parents' DNA to determine provenance.

After Laundrie's Florida park search, attorney confirms 'articles belonging to Brian were found'



Steven Bertolino, who represents the Laundrie family, confirmed to Fox News Digital that the Laundries informed law enforcement last night of their intentions to search the park and met officers there. Bertolino confirmed that while searching areas that Brian frequented, "some articles belonging to Brian were found."

Officers are now conducting a more thorough search of the area, Bertolino said.

His full statement reads: "Chris and Roberta Laundrie went to the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park this morning to search for Brian.  The FBI and NPPD were informed last night of Brian’s parents’ intentions and they met Chris and Roberta there this morning.  After a brief search off a trail that Brian frequented some articles belonging to Brian were found.   As of now law enforcement is conducting a more thorough investigation of that area."

The park is now closed to the public, having reopened only Tuesday following a weeks-long search for the fugitive.

I wonder what kind of possessions they found.

That crossed my mind, too.

DNA and or Dental records would prove otherwise

"Earlier today, investigators found what appear to be human remains and personal items... belonging to Brian Laundrie," says FBI SAIC Michael McPherson. "This is an active and ongoing investigation."

Parents under new suspicion after FBI confirms human remains, Brian Laundrie’s backpack, notebook found

excerpt:

In an interview later that evening with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Laundrie family attorney Steven Bertolino admitted that “the probability is strong that it is Brian’s remains.”

“It’s quite sad, you can imagine as a parent, finding your son’s belonging alongside from the remains. That’s got to be heartbreaking. And I can tell you that they are heartbroken,” he said.

Bertolino also revealed how Laundrie’s father — Chris Laundrie — had coincidentally been the one to find some of the items.

“As they went further in, Chris ventured off the trail into the woods. He was zigzagging in different areas. … At some point, Chris locates what’s called a dry bag. … Chris didn’t want to pick the bag up, because he wanted the law enforcement to see it. This was caught on camera. Chris couldn’t find the law enforcement, because they were then out of sight, because Chris had been in the woods,” he said.

“So, he didn’t want to leave the bag there, with a news reporter standing nearby. So, he picked it up. He did meet up shortly with law enforcement. They looked at the contents of the bag. At that time, law enforcement officers showed him a picture on the phone, of a backpack that law enforcement had located, also nearby, and also some distance off the trail. At that point, the Laundries were notified that there’s also remains near the backpack. And they were asked to leave the preserve,” the attorney added.

And so Laundrie’s father apparently found his son’s belongings. Bertolino claimed this was just an odd example of “happenstance.”

The Bizpacreview article is now saying that the remains found are likely to be those of Brian Laundrie:

The “something” that Florida authorities found at the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park on Wednesday has been confirmed to be remains that most likely belong to Brian Laundrie, the boyfriend of deceased 22-year-old Gabby Petito.

"Now, the posse went in and they came back out
They said he'll die and there ain't no doubt
It's an eye for an eye so the debt is paid
He won't last long in the Everglades
A man can't live in the Everglades"

Brian Laundrie search: Family lawyer addresses rumors parents planted evidence in Florida swamp
Chris and Roberta Laundrie decided to search reopened park after water levels receded
By Michael Ruiz | Fox News

   With the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park briefly reopened to the public, and water levels significantly lower than in mid-September, when Brian Laundrie vanished, the missing man's parents wanted to go in and search some of his favorite haunts Wednesday, according to their New York-based attorney.

As it happened, Chris and Roberta Laundrie led authorities to several items believed to have belonged to their son — and human remains that were not immediately identifiable.

But the proximity of the finds so close to the park entrance raised suspicions from critics as to their authenticity, said Steven Bertolino, the Laundries’ lawyer, who dismissed those concerns as unfounded.

Ultimately, what matters is whether the body they found is that of Brian.  If it is, then the question becomes a sad one of trying to figure out how everything went so horribly wrong.  If not, then the game is still afoot.

Brian Laundrie remains confirmed by FBI
A comparison of dental records confirmed Laundrie's identity
By Audrey Conklin , Michael Ruiz | Fox News

The FBI on Thursday confirmed remains recovered from the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park in North Port, Florida, on Wednesday were Florida fugitive Brian Laundrie's.

A comparison of dental records confirmed the 23-year-old's identity, according to the FBI.

Laundrie's former fiancée Gabby Petito, 22, turned up dead near a Wyoming campsite the couple shared in late August. The FBI discovered her remains on Sept. 19.

"On October 21, 2021, a comparison of dental records confirmed that the human remains found at the T. Mabry Carlton, Jr. Memorial Reserve and Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park are those of Brian Laundrie," the agency tweeted Thursday.

The remains were discovered in the park Wednesday near items belonging to Laundrie.

Steven Bertolino, the attorney representing the Laundrie family, confirmed the findings to Fox News.

"Chris and Roberta Laundrie have been informed that the remains found yesterday in the reserve are indeed Brian's. We have no further comment at this time and we ask that you respect the Laundrie's privacy at this time," Bertolino said.

Law enforcement officers visited the Laundrie's home for about two minutes on Thursday afternoon just before the news was announced.

The Laundries themselves helped lead police to the remains, visiting the park Wednesday with a pair of officers and searching an area where they have for weeks insisted their son liked to hike. With water levels significantly lower this week than on Chris Laundrie’s Oct. 7 visit to the same area with investigators, more ground was visible.
