Latest / Beyond The Horizon / Mega Edition: Brian Laundrie And His Gabby Petito Confession (9/29/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Greetings everyone and welcome back to Beyond the Horizon. Back
- 0:05Speaker 1: in September, we were covering the Gabby Petito case and
- 0:09Speaker 1: all of the twists and turns that came along with it.
- 0:13Speaker 1: We know that Brian and Gabby embarked on an adventure
- 0:17Speaker 1: across country in their van and during that trip, we
- 0:21Speaker 1: know that bitch-ass Brian Laundrie killed Gabby Petito. We also
- 0:26Speaker 1: know that Brian Laundrie took his own life in that
- 0:30Speaker 1: swamp that he was hiding in. Well, now new results
- 0:34Speaker 1: are out with the autopsy report, and they have a
- 0:38Speaker 1: few things to say about what occurred in that swamp
- 0:41Speaker 1: and how Brian Laundrie took his life. So we're going
- 0:45Speaker 1: to jump into a relatively short article over here from
- 0:49Speaker 1: the Daily Beast and wrap up the coverage on the
- 0:53Speaker 1: Gabby Petito case. When this was happening, obviously, the hope
- 0:57Speaker 1: was that she was still alive and that, you know,
- 1:01Speaker 1: she would be brought home. Obviously, everybody who follows this
- 1:05Speaker 1: sort of thing knows that in all likelihood, the result
- 1:09Speaker 1: that we ended up with was the most likeliest result.
- 1:13Speaker 1: But you always hope beyond hope, right? That this will
- 1:15Speaker 1: be a different end result, that this will be a
- 1:18Speaker 1: different outcome, that Gabby would have been found safe. But unfortunately,
- 1:23Speaker 1: that didn't occur. And then when Brian Laundrie goes on
- 1:27Speaker 1: the run afterwards, leaving her body there, heading back to Florida,
- 1:33Speaker 1: spending some time with his family, and then eventually going
- 1:36Speaker 1: to this swamp to kill himself, it was quite the
- 1:42Speaker 1: ride for people following this case. And there was a
- 1:46Speaker 1: lot of speculation at the time about how Brian Laundrie,
- 1:49Speaker 1: you know, could have killed himself or how he died.
- 1:52Speaker 1: And then we got the preliminary reports about the gunshot
- 1:55Speaker 1: wound to the head. Well, the report today goes in
- 1:58Speaker 1: a little bit more detail about some of the other
- 2:01Speaker 1: things that they found after they did this autopsy. So
- 2:06Speaker 1: let's jump into this article from the Daily Beast and
- 2:11Speaker 1: let's see what authors Pilar Melendez and Justin Rorlick have
- 2:16Speaker 1: to say. Headline. autopsy report reveals disturbing new details on
- 2:21Speaker 1: Brian Laundrie's death. Look, the most disturbing detail out of
- 2:25Speaker 1: all of this is the fact that this dude killed
- 2:27Speaker 1: Gabby Petito. That's the thing that disturbs me the most. Honestly,
- 2:31Speaker 1: however he died in that swamp, while I don't ever
- 2:35Speaker 1: want to celebrate someone losing their life, it's just karma, right?
- 2:40Speaker 1: Universal karma, in my opinion. Some people can't escape it.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And no matter what Brian Laundrie did, His life was
- 2:48Speaker 1: effectively over. Everybody knew he killed her. He knew that
- 2:51Speaker 1: he couldn't go to prison for the rest of his life.
- 2:53Speaker 1: So it was either A, go on the run or
- 2:55Speaker 1: hide in that swamp. And during this whole thing, when
- 2:59Speaker 1: it was happening, there was no way, like I said
- 3:02Speaker 1: during the show, that he was going to be hiding
- 3:03Speaker 1: in that swamp. And if he was, he was either
- 3:06Speaker 1: going to be eaten by something or he'd end up
- 3:08Speaker 1: killing himself. So it ended up being he was in
- 3:12Speaker 1: that swamp and he killed himself. Because short of that,
- 3:17Speaker 1: there's no way to exist in a terrain like that.
- 3:21Speaker 1: He's not a survivalist. This isn't Bear Grylls. This is
- 3:24Speaker 1: a little barefooted bitch ass, right? This dude ain't serious
- 3:27Speaker 1: about his survival ability. Now, I thought that he'd be
- 3:30Speaker 1: able to survive if he went towards the AT. If
- 3:34Speaker 1: you want to try and do the outdoor survivalist thing,
- 3:36Speaker 1: it's definitely possible, right? Is it likely? No. But it's
- 3:40Speaker 1: a lot more possible than living in a freaking swamp.
- 3:45Speaker 1: The Sarasota Medical Examiner's Office has released the official autopsy
- 3:48Speaker 1: report for doomed van lifer Brian Laundrie, revealing new details
- 3:53Speaker 1: about his death. The report, conducted by District 12 Deputy
- 3:58Speaker 1: Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Wilson Broussard, states that Laundrie died
- 4:03Speaker 1: from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Now, we
- 4:06Speaker 1: already knew that. We knew that he shot himself in
- 4:08Speaker 1: his big-ass head. And I figured that you need a
- 4:11Speaker 1: gigantic caliber of bullet for that. But I guess not,
- 4:15Speaker 1: considering it was a. 38, I guess. I don't know.
- 4:19Speaker 1: But either way, we knew it was a gunshot wound
- 4:21Speaker 1: to the head. When the FBI finally found him, days
- 4:25Speaker 1: into his disappearance, days into his disappearance, what? Longer than days.
- 4:29Speaker 1: He was discovered near a European-American arms revolver. which was
- 4:33Speaker 1: marked as a. 38 Special on one side of the
- 4:35Speaker 1: barrel and as a. 357 Magnum on the other, the
- 4:39Speaker 1: report states. So that's kind of confusing one way or
- 4:42Speaker 1: the other. It was a handgun, and that's what he
- 4:45Speaker 1: used to take his life after he ran. That's because
- 4:49Speaker 1: that's what he did. Let's make no mistake about it. Oh,
- 4:51Speaker 1: I'm going on a hike. Well, it was either run
- 4:54Speaker 1: or kill yourself, and he chose to kill himself, but
- 4:57Speaker 1: He wasn't sticking around and waiting for the authorities to come,
- 5:00Speaker 1: you know, barreling in the door with a warrant. He
- 5:03Speaker 1: knew that the writing was on the wall, and he
- 5:05Speaker 1: knew that it was time to either beat feet or
- 5:08Speaker 1: make the fateful decision to kill himself. The cylinder contained
- 5:13Speaker 1: two live rounds and one spent round of ammunition, the
- 5:16Speaker 1: report states, noting that Laundrie had been partly eaten by
- 5:20Speaker 1: animals by the time his remains were discovered in Florida,
- 5:24Speaker 1: in the Florida swamp. Yeah, hey, look. I know it's
- 5:28Speaker 1: kind of crude, right, and gross that the dude was
- 5:30Speaker 1: eaten by animals after the fact. But guess what? If
- 5:34Speaker 1: you're going to go to the swamp and you're going
- 5:36Speaker 1: to kill yourself, what do you think is going to happen?
- 5:39Speaker 1: You're not going to have a nice little burial underneath
- 5:43Speaker 1: the hill with a lemon tree planted on top of you.
- 5:45Speaker 1: You're going to end up in the belly of a
- 5:47Speaker 1: scavenger of some sort. or in the belly of a crocodile,
- 5:51Speaker 1: excuse me, an alligator, or a boar, or whatever it
- 5:54Speaker 1: might be. But your body is not going to lay
- 5:56Speaker 1: there unmolested, even in the water. So everybody was speculating
- 6:02Speaker 1: if you'd been eaten by animals, what, what. There you
- 6:05Speaker 1: have it, folks. At the very least, they had a
- 6:07Speaker 1: bit of a munch session, right? I'm guessing there was
- 6:10Speaker 1: a buffet of sorts of ball-headed, barefooted bitch asses going
- 6:15Speaker 1: on in that swamp. All of the swamp creatures gathered around,
- 6:18Speaker 1: had their forks and knives, and they were going to work.
- 6:24Speaker 1: Confirming an account made by an attorney representing Laundrie's family
- 6:28Speaker 1: after his remains were discovered in October, the report provides
- 6:32Speaker 1: new details into how authorities found the 23-year-old at the
- 6:36Speaker 1: environmental park. At the time, Laundrie was charged in the
- 6:39Speaker 1: disappearance and death of his fiancée, girlfriend, Gabby Petito in
- 6:44Speaker 1: a case that garnered national attention. Yeah, it certainly did
- 6:48Speaker 1: garner national attention. Everybody was talking about it and they
- 6:51Speaker 1: should have been. Remember, we were thinking that Gabby could
- 6:55Speaker 1: still be alive, right? And if that's the case, the
- 6:58Speaker 1: more publicity around it, the more hype around it, the
- 7:01Speaker 1: better off Gabby and her family would be. And again,
- 7:04Speaker 1: that is what you're looking to do in a case
- 7:07Speaker 1: like this. Drum up as much public awareness as possible,
- 7:11Speaker 1: and then hopefully somebody out there sees something or can
- 7:15Speaker 1: help law enforcement find the person that's being looked for.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Shortly after Petito was reported missing on September 11th, Laundrie
- 7:24Speaker 1: returned home to Florida before he himself vanished just seven
- 7:28Speaker 1: days later. Petito's remains were eventually found in a Wyoming
- 7:32Speaker 1: national park on September 19th, after authorities say she died
- 7:37Speaker 1: by strangulation. So the whole vanishing thing, let's not sugarcoat
- 7:42Speaker 1: what happened here. The cops were supposed to have an
- 7:44Speaker 1: eye on this dude, and he was able to slip
- 7:47Speaker 1: their tight dragnet that the great cops had going on
- 7:51Speaker 1: down there in Florida. Honestly, it was Keystone Cops kind
- 7:54Speaker 1: of shit. You mean to tell me you can't keep
- 7:57Speaker 1: your eye on this knucklehead, this ball-headed moron? You dudes
- 8:00Speaker 1: are going to let him slip. Your surveillance. That gives
- 8:03Speaker 1: all kinds of folks hope for the serious criminals out
- 8:07Speaker 1: there who are career criminals out there doing all sorts
- 8:09Speaker 1: of screwed up shit that you might have under surveillance
- 8:13Speaker 1: that you're going to be able to stop them from
- 8:15Speaker 1: doing whatever it is they're up to. I mean, we
- 8:17Speaker 1: shouldn't be shocked considering the way the surveillance worked out
- 8:20Speaker 1: when Jeffrey Epstein was under it in Florida. The FBI
- 8:25Speaker 1: previously revealed that Laundrie claimed responsibility for Petito's death in
- 8:29Speaker 1: a notebook found near the body. Last month, Wyoming federal
- 8:33Speaker 1: prosecutors dismissed charges against Laundrie, and that it's obviously because
- 8:38Speaker 1: he's dead. There's no point having a case against somebody
- 8:41Speaker 1: who's dead. Doesn't do anything for anybody, so might as
- 8:45Speaker 1: well not clog up the docket and get rid of it. Now,
- 8:48Speaker 1: we talked about the FBI revealing previously that Laundrie did
- 8:52Speaker 1: claim responsibility. Getting rid of all doubt, erasing all doubt. And...
- 8:58Speaker 1: He documented that in the notebook that was found next
- 9:01Speaker 1: to him that the FBI was able to put back
- 9:04Speaker 1: together and, you know, make heads and tails of it.
- 9:10Speaker 1: The full autopsy report for Laundrie notes that when authorities
- 9:14Speaker 1: found him on October 21st, 2021, they discovered his remains
- 9:19Speaker 1: in plain sight along a trail in the Carlton Reserve.
- 9:22Speaker 1: there was evidence that approximately three feet of water had
- 9:26Speaker 1: kept Laundrie's remains hidden from investigators for weeks. And when
- 9:30Speaker 1: you look at the area, super swampy area, right? Large
- 9:33Speaker 1: area to cover. But let's not act like the cops
- 9:36Speaker 1: weren't just, you know, buffooning around in their big mud trucks,
- 9:39Speaker 1: you know, having a training session. And it was literally
- 9:42Speaker 1: a training session in some cases. So they were all
- 9:45Speaker 1: over this place, but they just happened to not stumble
- 9:48Speaker 1: across Brian Laundrie until after the fact. Much of Laundrie's
- 9:51Speaker 1: corpse had moderately extensive carnivore activity evidence by multiple gouging
- 10:01Speaker 1: and gnawing marks, according to the medical examiner. These areas
- 10:05Speaker 1: are consistent with carnivores and or omnivores, including canines, such
- 10:10Speaker 1: as feral dogs, and coyotes along with rodents and raccoons.
- 10:14Speaker 1: I mean, don't get me wrong, I feel for anyone
- 10:17Speaker 1: who dies, right? Look, death is pretty much the end
- 10:20Speaker 1: of it. So certainly not something to take lightly. But
- 10:23Speaker 1: when you do what he did and you admit to it,
- 10:26Speaker 1: I have zero empathy for you. And I'm glad that
- 10:30Speaker 1: your remains ended up in some rat's stomach, some raccoon's stomach.
- 10:35Speaker 1: This dude, like I said earlier, did not deserve a
- 10:37Speaker 1: dignified burial for what he did to Gabby Petito. I
- 10:43Speaker 1: would have fed him alive to these animals, tell you
- 10:45Speaker 1: the truth, and I would be okay with that. Because again,
- 10:48Speaker 1: there's no fixing what this dude did. And then to
- 10:51Speaker 1: be a chump about it, be such a coward about
- 10:53Speaker 1: it afterwards, it just, it's beyond the pale. So everybody
- 10:58Speaker 1: was speculating about the animal stuff. And here you go, folks,
- 11:02Speaker 1: here you have it. They had the buffet city going
- 11:05Speaker 1: on with Brian Laundrie. And it looks like every single
- 11:11Speaker 1: animal in the ecosystem had a bite. The remains included
- 11:15Speaker 1: a right and left scapula, right humerus, right femur, two tibia,
- 11:20Speaker 1: two fibula, two clavicles, two pelvic bones, the sacrum, one
- 11:25Speaker 1: right ulna, one right radius, and multiple ribs, the report continues. Also,
- 11:32Speaker 1: multiple fragments of cranium and skull. Yeah, well, that doesn't
- 11:35Speaker 1: shock me with as big as that head was. How
- 11:38Speaker 1: the hell are you not going to find remains of
- 11:40Speaker 1: the skull littered all over the place? That goddamn thing.
- 11:43Speaker 1: along with generally intact mandible with attached teeth, and the
- 11:47Speaker 1: lower aspect of the maxilla with attached teeth are noted. Cervical, thoracic,
- 11:53Speaker 1: and lumbar vertebrae are also located nearby. That's pretty gruesome
- 11:58Speaker 1: and grim, but again, if anybody deserved to go out
- 12:02Speaker 1: like this and have this sort of burial in a swamp,
- 12:06Speaker 1: let's be real, he's trash and he's back where he belongs.
- 12:09Speaker 1: He's in his natural element, right? Investigators had to confirm
- 12:14Speaker 1: Laundrie's identity using dental records and DNA analysis. Among Laundrie's
- 12:20Speaker 1: personal effects were a pair of green shorts, two slip-on shoes,
- 12:24Speaker 1: a white metal ring, and the rusted handgun. A few
- 12:26Speaker 1: feet away, searchers discovered a green backpack, a tent and flares,
- 12:31Speaker 1: as well as a piece of paper and a gun.
- 12:32Speaker 1: And a red hat with the logo, Moab Coffee Roasters.
- 12:36Speaker 1: So that's pretty interesting, right? The tent and the flares
- 12:40Speaker 1: could be that he planned on trying to head out
- 12:42Speaker 1: for a while. And then when he was there, re-evaluated everything.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Knew that this was going south. Had an idea that
- 12:49Speaker 1: things were going to tumble out of control very quickly.
- 12:52Speaker 1: And knew he had no way to wiggle off of
- 12:53Speaker 1: the hook. So he probably made the assessment that the
- 12:57Speaker 1: best move for me is just to end it all
- 12:59Speaker 1: right here and right now. And that's exactly what he
- 13:03Speaker 1: ended up doing, isn't it? About 150 feet southwest of
- 13:08Speaker 1: the area, cops found a journal along with a wooden
- 13:11Speaker 1: box that contained a small notebook and photographs. Some of
- 13:14Speaker 1: the photos include Brian Laundrie. Laundrie was in one of
- 13:18Speaker 1: the photos the report states. So you're going to bring
- 13:22Speaker 1: photos of yourself on this adventure? Kind of weird behavior.
- 13:25Speaker 1: But I don't... You know, I'm not surprised by it, honestly.
- 13:28Speaker 1: The dude was certainly... wired wrong, was certainly a defective unit,
- 13:35Speaker 1: if you will, and none of his behavior surprises me.
- 13:39Speaker 1: But there you have it, folks. I mean, we followed
- 13:42Speaker 1: this case every day as it was happening, and it
- 13:44Speaker 1: was heartbreaking watching Gabby's parents get out there, you know,
- 13:48Speaker 1: beg for their daughter to be returned home, and this
- 13:51Speaker 1: piece of shit Brian Laundrie ignoring their phone calls, no texts,
- 13:54Speaker 1: and I get it, right? From a legal standpoint, that's
- 13:57Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do. But at what point do
- 14:00Speaker 1: you just... I mean, at what point are you a monster, right?
- 14:05Speaker 1: At what point? And obviously, with hindsight, he didn't talk
- 14:09Speaker 1: because he was guilty of this. And you see it
- 14:11Speaker 1: all the time, in my opinion, with people like this.
- 14:14Speaker 1: This is the kind of guy that was obviously guilty
- 14:16Speaker 1: from the very beginning. And it's unfortunate that he was
- 14:20Speaker 1: able to escape the justice of going to prison and
- 14:24Speaker 1: having Gabby's family get that kind of closure. But at
- 14:27Speaker 1: the end of the day... This dude certainly got hit
- 14:31Speaker 1: by the karma train when he was hanging out in
- 14:34Speaker 1: that swamp and decided to take his own life because
- 14:37Speaker 1: he ended up as feed for the raccoons, the coyotes,
- 14:41Speaker 1: and all sorts of other creepy crawlies. All right, folks,
- 14:47Speaker 1: if you'd like to contact me, you can do that

- 14:57Speaker 1: also find me on Twitter at B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I. The
- 15:04Speaker 1: article that we discussed can be found in the description box.
- 15:08Speaker 1: All right, everybody, I'll be back later on. Hope all
- 15:10Speaker 1: of you have a great day. What's up, everyone, and
- 15:14Speaker 1: welcome to Beyond the Horizon. Well, folks, it's been quite
- 15:17Speaker 1: some time since we've had a real update on Gabby
- 15:20Speaker 1: Petito and her death. Now, we discussed this at length
- 15:26Speaker 1: while it was going on, covered it every single day,
- 15:30Speaker 1: and we all knew what the end result was going
- 15:32Speaker 1: to be here. We all knew that this melon-munching, ball-headed,
- 15:37Speaker 1: bare-footed son-of-a-bitch killed Gabby Petito. And now it's coming out,
- 15:44Speaker 1: after the entries in the journal were able to be recovered,
- 15:48Speaker 1: that Brian Laundrie admitted to killing Gabby Petito. There was
- 15:53Speaker 1: some talk from some people, you know, it wasn't him
- 15:57Speaker 1: or it's a serial killer. Come on. We all knew
- 16:00Speaker 1: that that wasn't reality. We all knew that Gabby Petito
- 16:04Speaker 1: was murdered by the person she was seen with last,
- 16:07Speaker 1: by the person that we saw on that police body
- 16:11Speaker 1: cam footage. We all knew the kind of person Brian
- 16:14Speaker 1: Laundrie was. Did we forget the incident at the Tex-Mex joint?
- 16:19Speaker 1: Or all of the other incidents that led up to this?
- 16:23Speaker 1: So we were kind of on the fence about the book, right?
- 16:28Speaker 1: Wondering if it was going to be retrievable or recoverable.
- 16:32Speaker 1: And the FBI and their crack team, they were able to,
- 16:36Speaker 1: you know, dig in and figure it out. So we're
- 16:39Speaker 1: going to talk a little bit about that this morning
- 16:42Speaker 1: and get an update there because I want to see
- 16:45Speaker 1: this through till the very end, right? We talked about
- 16:48Speaker 1: it for a while. And now that there's new information out,
- 16:51Speaker 1: I want to make sure that we're on top of
- 16:53Speaker 1: that as well and that we, you know, finish this
- 16:56Speaker 1: story out. Not the conclusion we all wanted. We were
- 17:00Speaker 1: all hoping that, you know, Gabby would be found alive.
- 17:03Speaker 1: And then after that, when we found out that wasn't
- 17:05Speaker 1: going to be the case, we all wanted Brian Laundrie
- 17:09Speaker 1: to be brought in to face justice. But this coward-ass
- 17:13Speaker 1: scumbag killed himself instead and left a gigantic hole, not
- 17:18Speaker 1: only in the world... But especially in the hearts of
- 17:22Speaker 1: those who knew Gabby the best and loved her the most. Now,
- 17:27Speaker 1: I guess you could look at it several different ways here.
- 17:30Speaker 1: You know, one of those ways being her family gets
- 17:33Speaker 1: some closure. They know exactly what happened. But I don't
- 17:37Speaker 1: think that would give me any kind of closure, to
- 17:41Speaker 1: be honest with you. In fact, I probably wouldn't want
- 17:43Speaker 1: to know all of the details or anything like that
- 17:47Speaker 1: if it was my daughter. It's such a horrendous, horrible situation.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Such a gross way to go about things that I
- 18:00Speaker 1: don't even understand how parents who have suffered through this
- 18:05Speaker 1: can carry on. But they do. And you look at
- 18:11Speaker 1: Gabby's parents and the way that they have harnessed their
- 18:15Speaker 1: pain and their suffering to do good in the world.
- 18:18Speaker 1: And I don't know how anyone can not look at
- 18:21Speaker 1: that and not give a serious, serious knot of respect
- 18:25Speaker 1: to Gabby's parents. Because you could easily go the other
- 18:29Speaker 1: way and be depressed and, you know, withdraw from the world.
- 18:33Speaker 1: But they didn't do that. They've taken a very aggressive
- 18:37Speaker 1: approach trying to help find other missing people. And it's very...
- 18:46Speaker 1: It's a very, I don't know, honorable thing to do.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Brave thing to do. Insert word here. But watching them
- 18:55Speaker 1: set up the foundation and continue to try and help
- 18:58Speaker 1: other people, it's very inspiring. So let's take a look
- 19:03Speaker 1: at this article from the New York Post real quick.
- 19:06Speaker 1: And let's see what author Mark Longarello found out. Headline.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Brian Laundrie admitted to killing Gabby Petito in notebook entry,
- 19:16Speaker 1: FBI reveals. Brian Laundrie admitted he killed girlfriend Gabby Petito
- 19:22Speaker 1: in a notebook entry he wrote shortly before he took
- 19:25Speaker 1: his own life, the FBI revealed Friday in its final
- 19:28Speaker 1: report on the case. Now, we all thought that this
- 19:31Speaker 1: was a likelihood, right? And I said from the beginning
- 19:35Speaker 1: when we were covering the whole case that if he
- 19:39Speaker 1: is not out of that swamp, then he is dead.
- 19:42Speaker 1: He's not living in that swamp. He's not Les Stroud.
- 19:45Speaker 1: He's not, you know, Bear Grylls. He's not going to
- 19:48Speaker 1: hang out living in a swamp that's not a place
- 19:49Speaker 1: to live. that's livable. So I always thought that if
- 19:53Speaker 1: he hadn't hit the bricks and was already on the run,
- 19:56Speaker 1: then he was dead in that swamp. And eventually that's
- 20:00Speaker 1: what it turned out to be. Because there's not too
- 20:02Speaker 1: many options for a guy like that, right? You're on
- 20:04Speaker 1: the run. You just killed your girlfriend. You don't have
- 20:07Speaker 1: a vehicle. You really don't have access to a bunch
- 20:10Speaker 1: of money. So what are you going to do? You
- 20:12Speaker 1: only have a few options. Laundrie also sent text messages
- 20:17Speaker 1: between his and Petito's cell phones in the days after
- 20:20Speaker 1: Petito was strangled to death last summer... In an attempt
- 20:23Speaker 1: to deceive law enforcement by giving the impression Ms. Petito
- 20:26Speaker 1: was still alive, the FBI Denver said in its final
- 20:30Speaker 1: investigative update on the case. And this was something that
- 20:33Speaker 1: we were guessing as well. And when I say we,
- 20:37Speaker 1: I don't just mean us here on the podcast, but
- 20:39Speaker 1: a lot of people were speculating that Brian Laundrie was
- 20:44Speaker 1: the one sending those messages and that Gabby was already dead.
- 20:49Speaker 1: I'm thinking that it was right after the incident at
- 20:52Speaker 1: the Tex-Mex restaurant when they got to the campsite. I
- 20:56Speaker 1: think that everything finally exploded for Brian Laundrie at that point.
- 21:01Speaker 1: The argument, the being embarrassed at the Tex-Mex place when
- 21:04Speaker 1: Gabby apologized to him. All of it just blew up.
- 21:08Speaker 1: And this sick fuck lost his shit and killed Gabby.
- 21:15Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, there's not a hell hot
- 21:17Speaker 1: enough For somebody like this. Let me be very clear.
- 21:21Speaker 1: If you raise your hands to a woman. You're a bitch.
- 21:25Speaker 1: And if that's somebody out there. Listening who does that.
- 21:28Speaker 1: You're a straight bitch. That's what you are. Any dude
- 21:31Speaker 1: who's putting their hands on a woman. What's wrong with you?
- 21:34Speaker 1: Especially a woman that you love. Unless it's some kind
- 21:38Speaker 1: of crazy circumstance. Where your life is in danger. Coming
- 21:41Speaker 1: at you with a knife or a bat. Or something
- 21:43Speaker 1: like that. I don't want to hear anything about, oh, well,
- 21:47Speaker 1: here's what happened and why. There is no why. If
- 21:49Speaker 1: you hit a woman, there is no why. There's no explanations,
- 21:53Speaker 1: none of it. At least not in my opinion. All
- 22:02Speaker 1: logical investigative steps have been concluded in the case. FBI
- 22:06Speaker 1: Denver Division Special Agent in Charge Michael Schneider said in
- 22:09Speaker 1: a statement, the investigation did not identify any other individuals
- 22:14Speaker 1: Other than Brian Laundrie, directly involved in the tragic death
- 22:18Speaker 1: of Gabby Petito. And that was something we guessed as well.
- 22:21Speaker 1: Now again, there were some people out there that were
- 22:24Speaker 1: living in fantasy land. Just like in every other case
- 22:26Speaker 1: that gets some notoriety. It brings out the whack jobs, right?
- 22:31Speaker 1: But we knew that it was Brian Laundrie. And we
- 22:36Speaker 1: also knew that Brian Laundrie, by the way, wasn't involved...
- 22:40Speaker 1: In any other murders in the vicinity. Some people were
- 22:42Speaker 1: trying to set it up like he was some kind
- 22:44Speaker 1: of serial killer or something like that. This dude was
- 22:46Speaker 1: not that. This dude was a coward at heart. And
- 22:50Speaker 1: his coward's heart finally snapped. And that's why he ended
- 22:54Speaker 1: up killing Gabby. But it wasn't the first time he
- 22:56Speaker 1: hit her. It wasn't the first time he abused her.
- 22:58Speaker 1: This doesn't just happen overnight, right? The FBI's primary focus
- 23:04Speaker 1: throughout the investigation was to bring justice to Gabby and
- 23:07Speaker 1: her family, Schneider said. The public's role in helping us
- 23:10Speaker 1: in this endeavor was invaluable as the investigation was covered
- 23:14Speaker 1: in the media around the world. So again, to the
- 23:17Speaker 1: people out there that had something to say about the
- 23:21Speaker 1: coverage that the case caught, look, that coverage helped find Gabby.
- 23:27Speaker 1: So stuff all your nonsense, all of your Oh, well,
- 23:30Speaker 1: if this was that and this would stop it. Okay.
- 23:35Speaker 1: The fact of the matter is there are a lot,
- 23:36Speaker 1: there's a lot of people in the public who are
- 23:39Speaker 1: good people who want to help, who aren't going to
- 23:42Speaker 1: spin bullshit lies. And especially when these people have footage
- 23:45Speaker 1: backing up what they're saying they saw. And if it
- 23:48Speaker 1: wasn't for people at the park, the FBI probably would
- 23:53Speaker 1: have never found this body, at least not for quite
- 23:55Speaker 1: some time. But the people that were there, people had footage,
- 24:00Speaker 1: and the community rallied around what was going on to
- 24:03Speaker 1: try and bring justice to Brian Laundrie here. And for me,
- 24:06Speaker 1: as somebody who was part of this community, the outdoor community,
- 24:09Speaker 1: somebody who camps a lot, the whole nine, I felt
- 24:14Speaker 1: like my community as a whole was being attacked. And
- 24:18Speaker 1: that's what initiated my interest in this case in the
- 24:20Speaker 1: first place. Because... People who go out camping and live
- 24:25Speaker 1: this kind of lifestyle, van life, I would say the vast,
- 24:28Speaker 1: vast majority of them are very good people. And Brian
- 24:33Speaker 1: Laundrie doing this, well, it cast a light over the
- 24:36Speaker 1: whole community. Articles were published, oh, van life is not
- 24:41Speaker 1: what you expect. And come on, shut up. So many
- 24:44Speaker 1: people have no idea what it's like on the trail.
- 24:47Speaker 1: And so many people exposed that fact when they were
- 24:50Speaker 1: talking about this case. On behalf of the FBI, I
- 24:55Speaker 1: want to express my deepest appreciation for the public, for
- 24:59Speaker 1: the public, for the thousands of tips that were provided
- 25:02Speaker 1: during the investigation and to our local state and federal
- 25:05Speaker 1: law enforcement partners for their work throughout the investigation. Well,
- 25:10Speaker 1: I don't know about all that. We know that the, uh,
- 25:13Speaker 1: the police department down there in, uh, Florida did a
- 25:17Speaker 1: terrible job. We know that up in Moab, it wasn't
- 25:20Speaker 1: a good situation either. So I don't know about giving
- 25:23Speaker 1: props to all of these local police officers and police forces.
- 25:26Speaker 1: Let's not get carried away here, folks. You know, it
- 25:29Speaker 1: was a bad job all around, in my opinion. Obviously,
- 25:32Speaker 1: tough circumstances, but come on. Richard Stafford, an attorney for
- 25:37Speaker 1: the Petito family, thanked the FBI and its victim services.
- 25:41Speaker 1: We truly appreciate the FBI's diligent and painstaking efforts in
- 25:45Speaker 1: this extremely complicated case, Stafford said in a statement. The
- 25:49Speaker 1: quality and quantity of the facts and information collected by
- 25:52Speaker 1: the FBI leave no doubt that Brian Laundrie murdered Gabby.
- 25:58Speaker 1: And look, I am very critical of the FBI, but
- 26:00Speaker 1: they excel at stuff like this. This is what they're
- 26:03Speaker 1: good at, right? And the agents that work these cases
- 26:06Speaker 1: are the best in the world, folks. There's no doubt
- 26:08Speaker 1: about that. It's when they start with their political bullshit
- 26:12Speaker 1: up top with the bosses that I have a big issue.
- 26:15Speaker 1: But when we're talking about stuff like this, when it's
- 26:18Speaker 1: just good old-fashioned police work hitting the ground and finding
- 26:21Speaker 1: clues and figuring things out, the FBI is top-notch and
- 26:25Speaker 1: still the top of the food chain when it comes
- 26:28Speaker 1: to investigators. Stephen Bertolino, the lawyer for the Laundrie family,
- 26:33Speaker 1: issued a statement after the release of the FBI report.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Gabby and Brian are no longer with their families, and
- 26:39Speaker 1: this tragedy has caused enormous emotional pain and suffering to
- 26:43Speaker 1: all who loved either or both of them, Bertolino wrote. Look,
- 26:48Speaker 1: I get it, Brian Laundrie's parents are going to miss him,
- 26:51Speaker 1: his family's probably going to miss him, but I doubt
- 26:53Speaker 1: anybody else's. If this was my friend who did this
- 26:56Speaker 1: to their girlfriend, I wouldn't spare one single thought for
- 27:00Speaker 1: them afterwards. If you have this kind of hatred in
- 27:03Speaker 1: your heart... This sort of evil... Running through your veins...
- 27:07Speaker 1: I certainly am not going to spend one single minute...
- 27:10Speaker 1: Feeling sympathy for you... When there are a ton of
- 27:13Speaker 1: people out there folks... Who deserve our sympathy... May Gabby
- 27:18Speaker 1: and Brian both rest in peace... Well, I'm sure Gabby is...
- 27:22Speaker 1: Now Brian on the other hand... If there is a hell...
- 27:25Speaker 1: I'm sure that he is burning... In the very bottom
- 27:28Speaker 1: pits of it... Any person... who does this to another person,
- 27:34Speaker 1: especially someone that they say that they love, deserves to
- 27:37Speaker 1: burn in the hottest part of hell. Long Island native Petito, 22,
- 27:43Speaker 1: vanished last summer during an ill-fated cross-country trip with laundry.
- 27:47Speaker 1: She was reported missing September 11th, and her body was
- 27:50Speaker 1: found September 19th at a Wyoming campground, with an autopsy
- 27:54Speaker 1: later determining she died of blunt force injuries to the
- 27:57Speaker 1: head and neck with manual strangulation. So we all know
- 28:01Speaker 1: what happened. They got into a fight. He cracked her.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Then he choked her to death. Did he hit her
- 28:06Speaker 1: with something? I don't know. But we know that it
- 28:08Speaker 1: was blunt force first and then strangulation. So he probably
- 28:13Speaker 1: hit her to daze her, right? Get her a little
- 28:16Speaker 1: disoriented and then went in for his disgusting moves. It
- 28:23Speaker 1: makes me ill even talking about that. I'm sitting here
- 28:26Speaker 1: reading this article, looking at a picture of Gabby standing
- 28:29Speaker 1: between two trees with this big beautiful smile on her face,
- 28:33Speaker 1: and we're talking about the evil that this piece of
- 28:35Speaker 1: shit did to her. Really makes me agitated, folks. When Laundrie, 23,
- 28:41Speaker 1: returned to his parents' Northport, Florida home without her, he
- 28:44Speaker 1: quickly became the sole person of interest in the case
- 28:47Speaker 1: before he disappeared too. A massive manhunt for him followed
- 28:52Speaker 1: until his remains were found in a nearby nature preserve
- 28:55Speaker 1: October 20th. A revolver, backpack, and the notebook were found
- 29:00Speaker 1: near his body, the FBI stated. Authorities determined he'd shot himself.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Police had determined that between August 30th and September 1st,
- 29:09Speaker 1: Laundrie had used Petito's debit card on his drive from
- 29:12Speaker 1: Wyoming to Florida, the report said. So still, I'm thinking
- 29:16Speaker 1: that it was August 28th. when this happened, when Gabby
- 29:21Speaker 1: was killed by this piece of shit. And him trying
- 29:23Speaker 1: to set up the digital footprint of himself using the card,
- 29:27Speaker 1: the phone. I mean, come on, man. What kind of
- 29:31Speaker 1: animal does this? So I'm really bummed that he ended
- 29:35Speaker 1: up killing himself because I really would have loved to
- 29:38Speaker 1: see this guy go to prison and get the full
- 29:41Speaker 1: treatment from the other inmates because he certainly would have
- 29:44Speaker 1: gotten it. There's no way in hell a guy like
- 29:47Speaker 1: this would show up in prison and, you know, he's
- 29:50Speaker 1: going to have a good time or he's not going
- 29:52Speaker 1: to suffer some consequences. So him killing himself sucks, right?
- 29:57Speaker 1: Because now Gabby's family, they don't get that closure. They
- 30:00Speaker 1: don't get to see this dude, you know, go to prison.
- 30:04Speaker 1: But one thing I will say is this. At least,
- 30:08Speaker 1: at the very least, unlike a lot of other missing
- 30:11Speaker 1: persons cases, a lot of murdered people who were never found,
- 30:15Speaker 1: at least the family has the closure of knowing what
- 30:18Speaker 1: happened here. At least they have that closure. Now, I
- 30:21Speaker 1: don't know if it's going to bring them any peace.
- 30:23Speaker 1: And I don't think it would bring me any peace,
- 30:25Speaker 1: to be honest with you. And it might just be
- 30:28Speaker 1: grasping at straws, right? But there's a lot of people
- 30:31Speaker 1: out there who are never going to know the fate
- 30:34Speaker 1: of their loved one, of their child. And for me,
- 30:38Speaker 1: it's just heartbreaking to think about. I hope that Gabby's family,
- 30:44Speaker 1: the people who loved her, I hope that they find
- 30:46Speaker 1: whatever kind of closure that they can in this. And
- 30:49Speaker 1: I hope that moving forward, they continue to To put
- 30:53Speaker 1: forth the incredible effort... That we see from her mom...
- 30:57Speaker 1: Her dad... Her stepdad... Her stepmom... With helping other people...
- 31:01Speaker 1: Because that is the kind of legacy... That should be
- 31:04Speaker 1: left in Gabby's name... From everything we know about her...
- 31:07Speaker 1: She was a great bubbly happy girl... Someone who just
- 31:10Speaker 1: wanted to chase down her dreams... And she thought she
- 31:13Speaker 1: had the right person... She thought that she had the wingman...
- 31:16Speaker 1: Her rider... The person that was going to be with her...
- 31:19Speaker 1: No matter what... And in reality... She was with a monster.
- 31:25Speaker 1: Somebody who didn't have her best interest at heart. And somebody, ultimately,
- 31:30Speaker 1: that stole her dreams and her life. So, Brian Laundrie,
- 31:40Speaker 1: I hope that you are burning in hell. And Gabby, well,
- 31:44Speaker 1: I hope that you are resting in peace. All right, folks. Well,
- 31:49Speaker 1: that's going to do it for this update. There's a
- 31:51Speaker 1: couple of other episodes I'm going to get to as well,
- 31:54Speaker 1: touching on a few more issues surrounding the Gabby Petito
- 31:59Speaker 1: case and some of the other things that we talked about.
- 32:03Speaker 1: I'll probably get to that article tomorrow morning, same as
- 32:07Speaker 1: this one, and we'll continue following it until the couple
- 32:11Speaker 1: of articles I want to talk about are finished. And
- 32:14Speaker 1: then we'll be right back at it, folks. I know
- 32:17Speaker 1: there's been a lot of Jeffrey Epstein, Glenn Maxwell, Prince
- 32:20Speaker 1: Andrew talk around these parts lately. And I've been doing
- 32:24Speaker 1: that so you folks didn't have to go to the other...
- 32:27Speaker 1: podcast and subscribe and all of that. But I got
- 32:30Speaker 1: some things planned over here at Beyond the Horizon for
- 32:34Speaker 1: this week coming up and in the future. So we're
- 32:38Speaker 1: going to get rocking and rolling, folks. And now that,
- 32:40Speaker 1: you know, things are starting to slow down a bit
- 32:42Speaker 1: over in Maxwell World, I'll be able to really lock
- 32:45Speaker 1: in on some of the other projects that I'm working
- 32:47Speaker 1: on over here. So stay tuned and get ready because
- 32:52Speaker 1: there's a lot coming in the future. All right, everybody,
- 32:55Speaker 1: if you'd like to contact me, you can do that
- 32:57Speaker 1: at BobbyCapucci at ProtonMail.com. That's B-O-B-B-Y-C-A-P-U-C-C-I at ProtonMail.com. You can
- 33:06Speaker 1: also find me on Twitter at B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I. The
- 33:13Speaker 1: link that we discussed can be found in the description box.
- 33:17Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the program. If
- 33:20Speaker 1: anybody had any doubts previously... about Brian Laundrie's melon-munching ass,
- 33:26Speaker 1: and about how demented and sick he was, this new
- 33:29Speaker 1: information in his FBI file should put all of that
- 33:32Speaker 1: to bed once and for all. There's no doubt that
- 33:35Speaker 1: Brian Laundrie was a sick, demented son of a bitch.
- 33:39Speaker 1: And there's certainly no doubt that Gabby was literally cohabitating
- 33:43Speaker 1: with a monster. So today we have an article from
- 33:46Speaker 1: the New York Post and the headlines. Brian Laundrie's FBI
- 33:50Speaker 1: file reveals his mania before killing Gabby Petito, diary of
- 33:54Speaker 1: twisted drawings, and weaponry. What's a grown-ass man doing drawing
- 33:58Speaker 1: a bunch of weapons in a diary? Unless you're a sick,
- 34:01Speaker 1: demented dude or an artist of some sort, I don't
- 34:05Speaker 1: understand why a grown man would be sitting around in
- 34:07Speaker 1: a notebook and drawing a bunch of weapons. Unless, of course,
- 34:11Speaker 1: you're one sadistic son of a bitch who is probably
- 34:14Speaker 1: going to snap someday and kill people. And it's just
- 34:18Speaker 1: like anyone with a manifesto. If you have a manifesto,
- 34:21Speaker 1: chances are you're some sort of deranged lunatic that's up
- 34:24Speaker 1: to no good. This article was authored by Jack Morfitt
- 34:28Speaker 1: and Ronnie Reyes. Murderer Brian Laundrie poured his sick mind
- 34:33Speaker 1: onto paper, scrawling notes about his mania and doodling skull
- 34:37Speaker 1: graphics with the words, trust no one and kill. New
- 34:41Speaker 1: FBI files exclusively obtained by the Post Review. The writings
- 34:45Speaker 1: and other evidence were photographed by the agency during a
- 34:48Speaker 1: raid of the Laundrie's family home after the body of
- 34:51Speaker 1: Gabby Petito, the girlfriend he murdered, was found dumped in
- 34:55Speaker 1: a remote Wyoming camping area in September of 2021. Brian Stewart,
- 35:01Speaker 1: the Petito family's lawyer, said he was shocked by the
- 35:04Speaker 1: 23-year-old Brian Scrawlings and other chilling evidence recovered by officials
- 35:08Speaker 1: from the Laundrie's Florida residence before Brian was found dead
- 35:12Speaker 1: by suicide in a nearby national park. So you mean
- 35:15Speaker 1: to tell me there were no warning signs that this
- 35:18Speaker 1: dude was a deranged lunatic prior to all of this
- 35:21Speaker 1: going down? Somebody knew what was up. Somebody knew that
- 35:24Speaker 1: he was a little bit touched, if you will. Whether
- 35:27Speaker 1: it's friends or family, whoever it might be, there's no
- 35:30Speaker 1: doubt that this dude was a demented psychopath. And then
- 35:34Speaker 1: when you delve a little bit deeper here, and you
- 35:36Speaker 1: start looking at his drawings and his most intimate thoughts,
- 35:39Speaker 1: that's when you really get down to it, cut away
- 35:41Speaker 1: the fat, and get to know somebody. And what we
- 35:43Speaker 1: know of Brian Laundrie... is that he was a degenerate
- 35:46Speaker 1: murderer and obviously a psychopath. In retrospect, it tells us
- 35:50Speaker 1: that Brian dealt with mental health issues and was clearly
- 35:53Speaker 1: a narcissist and manipulator capable of violence, Stewart told the Post. Well,
- 35:58Speaker 1: Gabby's body being left at Grand Teton told us that story.
- 36:04Speaker 1: Was anybody under any illusion that Brian Laundrie was not
- 36:08Speaker 1: a bitch-ass motherfucker, a coward-ass chump who killed Gabby? We
- 36:13Speaker 1: all knew right from the jump. I don't think there's
- 36:15Speaker 1: anybody out here that thought that Brian Laundrie wasn't guilty
- 36:19Speaker 1: of killing Gabby Petito. Innocent people don't do the things
- 36:22Speaker 1: that Brian Laundrie did, so there was never any doubt
- 36:25Speaker 1: that this scumbag was responsible for what happened. Along with
- 36:29Speaker 1: the drawing, the FBI search also turned up notebooks belonging
- 36:32Speaker 1: to Petito, as well as hundreds of bullets, several magazines,
- 36:36Speaker 1: and a bill of sale and handbooks for a Ruger.
- 36:38Speaker 1: 380 and a Glock 49mm pistol. Officials also recovered a
- 36:43Speaker 1: compound bow, fitted with a rifle scope, bolt-action rifle magazines,
- 36:48Speaker 1: brass knuckles, a thick wad of cash, and copies of
- 36:51Speaker 1: The Watchtower, an illustrated religious magazine published by New York-based
- 36:56Speaker 1: Jehovah's Witnesses. Well, isn't that nice? Jehovah's Witnesses? Now look,
- 37:01Speaker 1: I'm not exactly what you would call a theological expert,
- 37:04Speaker 1: but bro, you guys have like no happiness in your life.
- 37:08Speaker 1: Celebrate no birthdays, no Christmas, nothing. No wonder they go crazy.
- 37:13Speaker 1: Laundrie was also in the possession of the novel Choke
- 37:16Speaker 1: about a scam artist who pretends to choke on food
- 37:18Speaker 1: to earn sympathy checks from others. Other books in Laundrie's
- 37:22Speaker 1: possession were pictured hollowed out, apparently to allow him to
- 37:26Speaker 1: secretly store items or electronics. Bro's been watching way too
- 37:29Speaker 1: many shows about jail. Let me go ahead and hollow
- 37:33Speaker 1: out this Bible real quick and put my contraband in there.
- 37:37Speaker 1: I mean, for real, what a ball-headed, barefooted, Melon-munching, bitch-ass
- 37:43Speaker 1: Brian Laundrie is, or was, I should say. And the
- 37:46Speaker 1: only thing that sucks, like I've said previously, is that
- 37:49Speaker 1: he ended up killing himself and he wasn't brought to justice. Although,
- 37:53Speaker 1: getting eaten by an alligator in the swamp down there
- 37:55Speaker 1: in Florida, I think that would have been good justice, right?
- 37:58Speaker 1: That would have been justice served. Among the most disturbing
- 38:01Speaker 1: pieces of evidence were Laundrie's own private writings, which expressed
- 38:05Speaker 1: his desires to kill and immolate himself months before he
- 38:08Speaker 1: began dating Petito. So this dude was harboring all kinds
- 38:13Speaker 1: of wild shit. And obviously, he was good enough at
- 38:17Speaker 1: suppressing it that Gabby was none the wiser. And it
- 38:20Speaker 1: doesn't look like anybody else was. We didn't hear from
- 38:23Speaker 1: anybody about Laundrie being a homicidal maniac. We heard he
- 38:26Speaker 1: was a little weird, you know, this, that, the other thing.
- 38:29Speaker 1: But as far as him being a homicidal maniac, we
- 38:32Speaker 1: didn't hear much of that. So he was able to
- 38:34Speaker 1: keep his psychopathy under control, right? he was able to
- 38:38Speaker 1: keep his second face hidden. About a year ago, I
- 38:42Speaker 1: went into a type of mania where I was smashing
- 38:44Speaker 1: holes in the wall with my head, kicking through paintings,
- 38:47Speaker 1: tearing whatever I was working on, pouring gasoline on myself
- 38:50Speaker 1: to burn alive, but getting the lighter wet, parking out
- 38:54Speaker 1: in the murder land listening to Mac, unclear but maybe DeMarco,
- 38:58Speaker 1: with a gun to my head, wrestling alligators. Laundrie wrote
- 39:02Speaker 1: in his diary, on October 26, 2018, You know, the
- 39:06Speaker 1: only unfortunate thing about all of that is that he
- 39:08Speaker 1: didn't go through with it. If he would have killed himself,
- 39:10Speaker 1: then Gabby would have never been murdered. So if you're
- 39:14Speaker 1: some kind of murderous psychopath, the best option for everybody
- 39:17Speaker 1: involved is for you to just get rid of yourself.
- 39:19Speaker 1: No need to take other people with you. And that's
- 39:22Speaker 1: basically what this was, right? A murder-suicide. That's what he did.
- 39:25Speaker 1: He murdered her, ran home to mommy and daddy, hid
- 39:28Speaker 1: with mommy and daddy for a few days, and and
- 39:30Speaker 1: then decided to go and kill himself like the bitch
- 39:33Speaker 1: ass chumpy is i wanted to die and the weird
- 39:36Speaker 1: thing is nothing's changed but the timer is running down
- 39:39Speaker 1: he continued under the mattress i'm on is a loaded
- 39:42Speaker 1: 357 magnum revolver a pull of the trigger and all
- 39:46Speaker 1: my problems will be over The chilling diary entries were
- 39:49Speaker 1: written about four months before Laundrie and Petito started dating,
- 39:53Speaker 1: according to their Instagram accounts. Two years later, Laundrie and
- 39:56Speaker 1: Petito went on a cross-country van tour, detailing their escapades
- 40:00Speaker 1: on social media. And you know the saying, not everything
- 40:03Speaker 1: that glitters is gold, right? We heard that several times
- 40:06Speaker 1: during the Chad Daybell trial, and it's true. Gabby thought
- 40:10Speaker 1: that she was going on the trip of her life,
- 40:12Speaker 1: thought that she was going to create a bunch of content,
- 40:15Speaker 1: For her new channel, she was going to become a
- 40:17Speaker 1: travel influencer and, you know, begin her life. But instead, bitch-ass, melon-munching, barefooted,
- 40:24Speaker 1: ball-headed Brian Laundrie had other plans. However, things took a
- 40:29Speaker 1: gruesome turn when Laundrie suddenly reappeared at his parents' home
- 40:33Speaker 1: and Petito was reported missing after a nationwide search. The
- 40:36Speaker 1: 22-year-old strangled corpse was found in Wyoming's Grand Teton National Park.
- 40:42Speaker 1: Authorities confirmed she was killed sometime around August 28th. And
- 40:46Speaker 1: if you remember, this came basically directly after their argument
- 40:51Speaker 1: at the Tex-Mex joint. The Piggly Wiggly or whatever the
- 40:55Speaker 1: hell it was called. I forget the name right now.
- 40:57Speaker 1: But they had that argument in there where Brian Laundrie
- 41:00Speaker 1: was berating the staff. And then Gabby went in and
- 41:04Speaker 1: she apologized to the staff on behalf of Brian Laundrie.
- 41:07Speaker 1: And of course, that launched them into orbit. When you
- 41:09Speaker 1: have a narcissist like this, Somebody who's dangerous, somebody who's
- 41:13Speaker 1: a killer, somebody with a fragile-ass ego, well, they're dangerous people.
- 41:18Speaker 1: And if you step on that ego, and you check them,
- 41:20Speaker 1: or you're somebody like Gabby, who he thought he had
- 41:23Speaker 1: control over, who steps out of line, in his view,
- 41:26Speaker 1: and goes and talks to the staff after they were berated, well,
- 41:30Speaker 1: he couldn't abide by that. And that's what led him
- 41:33Speaker 1: to snapping completely and killing Gabby Petito. An undated post
- 41:37Speaker 1: in Laundrie's diary also describes the nightmare he had which
- 41:40Speaker 1: appeared to be about Petito leaving him. The ocean pours
- 41:44Speaker 1: out of her blue eyes, and the fire is out.
- 41:46Speaker 1: With one word, the pain is gone. Brian? Laundrie wrote. Oh,
- 41:51Speaker 1: how sweet she is to say we would get together.
- 41:53Speaker 1: But you know, when you walk out that door, she'll
- 41:55Speaker 1: be gone forever again, he added. You're back in the car,
- 41:58Speaker 1: haunted by the eyes you'll never look into again. Yo,
- 42:02Speaker 1: that's some pretty chilling shit, honestly. And talk about being
- 42:05Speaker 1: a prophet. Chad Daybell obviously has nothing on Brian Laundrie.
- 42:10Speaker 1: Because all of that stuff right there, that all occurred.
- 42:14Speaker 1: Nobody's ever looking into Gabby's eyes again, are they? And
- 42:17Speaker 1: the truth of it is this. If Brian Laundrie didn't
- 42:20Speaker 1: kill her on this trip, it was only a matter
- 42:22Speaker 1: of time before he snapped and killed Gabby Petito. So
- 42:27Speaker 1: this was a long time coming, as far as Brian
- 42:30Speaker 1: Laundrie's concerned, and there was no way that this was
- 42:32Speaker 1: ever going to have any other outcomes. The pain burns
- 42:35Speaker 1: fresh because you know it's just tonight. You wake up
- 42:38Speaker 1: and you're both free. The entry concluded, Stewart said the
- 42:42Speaker 1: Petito family was unaware of these diary entries, but if
- 42:46Speaker 1: Laundrie harbored desires to hurt himself and Gabby back when
- 42:49Speaker 1: the notes were written, he did a good job of
- 42:51Speaker 1: hiding it. And look, there's some people that can hide it.
- 42:54Speaker 1: They show you their outside face, and then their inside
- 42:56Speaker 1: face is something completely different. And obviously Brian Laundrie was
- 43:01Speaker 1: good at doing that. And the truth is, you never
- 43:03Speaker 1: really know Who you're dealing with, right? You never know
- 43:06Speaker 1: if somebody's a monster. You never know what sort of
- 43:09Speaker 1: thoughts they're harboring behind the scenes. And unfortunately for Gabby Petito,
- 43:14Speaker 1: these weren't just thoughts. These were desires and fantasies that
- 43:19Speaker 1: Brian Laundrie was harboring for quite some time. And I
- 43:22Speaker 1: think all of this new information confirms that. This wasn't
- 43:26Speaker 1: the case of Brian Laundrie just snapping. This was a
- 43:29Speaker 1: buildup over time, and the progression of his sick thoughts
- 43:33Speaker 1: continued to grow while he was with Gabby until that
- 43:36Speaker 1: fateful day when those fantasies became reality. So we'll continue
- 43:41Speaker 1: to follow along if there's new information that pops up
- 43:44Speaker 1: as far as Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie, but that's
- 43:48Speaker 1: going to do it for this one. All of the
- 43:50Speaker 1: information that goes with this episode can be found in
- 43:54Speaker 1: the description box.
