Moab City Police Department in Utah have released body cam footage of their interaction with Brian Laundrie and Gabrielle Petito, two weeks before Gabby's last sighting.
"We just had a little disagreement, she got a little worked up," he said."Just little things... there's a lot of little things." The witness said they did not see the Laundrie hit Petito; he saw him lock her out of the van, and her trying to get back in, eventually"clawing" her way in through the driver's door. He also said he saw Laundrie shove her, but couldn't tell if it was aggressive or defensive."It sounds like she is the primary aggressor," the officer tells his colleagues.
"I definitely don't want to pursue anything, I love her and it was just a squabble," Laundrie tells them, even volunteering to go to jail in her place. The officers all discuss how to resolve the situation, clearly keen on letting the pair go, despite the law insisting Petito be detained and charged, and the couple separated.
"If he doesn't have enough sense to stay separated, it's on him," one officer tells his colleagues out of earshot. "On behalf of the Laundrie family, it is our hope that the search for Miss Petito is successful and that Miss Petito is reunited with her family," it said."On the advice of counsel, the Laundrie family is remaining in the background at this juncture and will have no further comment."
"Brian claims he wants to sit in the background while we search for Gabby in the wilderness of the Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks. Brian left Gabby in the wilderness with grizzly bears and wolves while he sits in the comfort of his home. In his home! Brian, how could you do this to Gabby? You selfishly remain silent while Gabby is all alone in the wilderness.
On Tuesday, it also emerged that Utah police had been called to an"incident" involving the couple, two weeks before she disappeared, but nothing came of it.
According to police, Laundrie returned home to Florida, alone, on September 1 - ten days before Gabrielle's family reported her missing. While he was initially described as her boyfriend, several outlets report the couple are engaged.Brian Laundrie's parents are reportedly refusing to let police speak to him.
He’s not missing, you mean he’s on the run. How disgusting of his family to wait & give him a head start before saying anything instead of making him accountable.
They are gonna find him dead I'm guessing she fell or was pushed in Wyoming
He killed her, and has likely done the same to himself. When he came back and she didn't, and he wasn't concerned about her whereabouts, it was a wrap. But he got and many others like him get a pass for some unknown reason that I can't seem to put a finger on
Hmm
This is giving modern day Casey Anthony
These parents need to end up in jail…
Where the van at?
Or they gave him 72 hours of lead time to flee the country.
Its the same article
Wild goose chase.
Update: Brian found dead
They need to find the both of them! 🙏🏾
Seems like they gave him 4 days to get away then trying to save themselves called the police.
... as soon as he was announced as a person of interest. seems his parents are trying to avoid an Accessory charge.
Why would they wait until Friday to tell the FBI instead of telling them right away🤔
