If you do a side-by-side comparison of the van in this photo and the one on her Instagram, that bumper was fresh, and now it’s super scratched up. The Ford sign is twisted, which it wasn’t in the last photo they posted. The lights may look different from before due to the lighting in the garage. But something definitely happened to the front of that car. That’s not normal wear & tear, even on a cross country road trip.

Gabby Petito's mother, Nichole Schmidt, speaks on the ongoing search for her missing daughter.

"I don't understand why you would leave the love of your life somewhere and not tell anyone where she is." nws.mx/tv

...unless you did something really bad and feel guilty.

Even if he didn’t kill her himself what kind of weirdo just leaves their girlfriend/fiancé while 3000 miles from home.

SALT LAKE CITY — FOX 13 News has confirmed the hotel where missing woman, 22-year-old Gabby Petito, was last seen in public on August 24 as a Fairfield Inn and Suites near the Salt Lake City International Airport.
We went there Wednesday night. Staff wouldn't speak to us on camera, but they did say the FBI and police officers had visited the hotel recently.
They also told us that Gabby stayed there for more than a day. This morning the search for Petito is focused on Wyoming. That's where she and her boyfriend Brian Laundrie reportedly were when she last spoke to her mother. Utah investigators 'not ruling anything out' in double homicide near missing Gabby Petito incident
Her stepfather is there now and spoke to FOX News about the efforts to find Gabby.
"The police are doing everything they can. That's all we can rely on right now. That all these law enforcement agencies are working together collectively. And they are doing their best to find out what happened, where she is," said James Schmidt. Richard Stafford, a spokesman for Petito’s family, also released a statement Wednesday calling on Laundrie to cooperate with police, calling his silence "reprehensible."
"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," he said. "Brian left Gabby in the wilderness with grizzly bears and wolves while he sits in the comfort of his home. In his home!"
Laundrie has been named a person of interest but not a suspect in connection with Petito’s disappearance.
Gabby's family has grown impatient with Laundrie since he arrived home in early September without Gabby. He has refused to cooperate with police and has hired a lawyer. Gabby Petito was reported missing on September 11 shortly after she ceased regular communication with her friends and family. The couple were traveling the country to visit national parks in a white Ford Transit van, which Laundrie drove home to Florida.
Petito was reportedly last seen in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. Officials are urging anyone with information regarding the case to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI. Copyright 2021

Yeah, they just announced here that they are ruling out the connection to the double homicide.


And this just came out. Someone spotted him at Colter Bay on August 29th and he asked if he could get a ride to "Jackson". His small chit-chat did not make sense--his GF was "in town working on her website in their van." He then said that he said that they had been camping on the Snake River and that he had been out camping with a tarp alone "for days" yet he had no food or supplies on him. When she said that she was going to Jackson Hole he freaked out and demanded that they drop him off at Jackson Lake Dam where he crossed the road to "continue hitchhiking." This is freaking weird.

NYT is reporting that police have just left the Laundrie home where the parents reported that they have not seen Brian “for several days.”

The North Port Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigations are currently searching for 23-yr-old Brian Laundrie of North Port. The attorney for the Laundrie family called FBI investigators Friday night indicating the family would like to talk about the disappearance of their son. The family now claims that they have not seen Brian since Tuesday of this week.

Brian is described as:
-White Male
-5’8 160lbs
-Brown eyes
-Short brown hair
-trimmed facial hair
-Last seen wearing a hiking bag with a waist strap.

We understand the community’s frustration, we are frustrated too. For six days, the North Port Police Department and the FBI have been pleading with the family to contact investigators regarding Brian’s Fiancé Gabby Petito. Friday is the first time they have spoken with investigators in detail. It is important to note that while Brian is a person of interest in Gabby’s disappearance, he is not wanted for a crime. We are not currently working a crime investigation. We are now working a multiple missing person investigations.

The North Port Police Department is actively looking for Gabby, Brian, and any information surrounding this case. Please continue to utilize 1-800-CALL-FBI.
