She got "News Attention " bc she was on RU-vid & had a following already. That makes sense and this story is making me cry. The News stations choose to ignore missing and abducted people therefore the public isn't away of most cases. It's not like they don't care about people who are missing.. The MSM hides how many children go missing & ignore Child Trafficking and the question is why? Currently the Biden Administration is engaged in child trafficking.
Doctor Chris is a very intelligent man FairPlay to him He explained what he knew and no lies whatsoever!! Rest in peace gabby you were a good looking as any high up model because you were just a very good looking young lady Sad that you parted so young but not your fault gabby !! For ever young girl,,
After learning about Gabby's death, I got myself and my pup into a domestic violence shelter. I left an abusive relationship that left me with brain damage. Leaving was the best thing I ever did. Rest in peace Gabby.
@@emira5009 thank you. It was the best choice I ever made for us. And a lil over a year later, I am now married to a wonderful man and I'm pregnant with our baby boy. My pup is with us and very loved. Thank you. God bless
Yup, Gabby's death helped countless women find the courage to get away from abusive partners or see all the patterns & red flags, warning signs of a toxic manipulative abusive man, god bless.
@@ko7577 Shouldn't be so sure. Life after death is far from disproven, though we've no idea what form it would take other than what we hear from those who have died temporarily.
I got a domestic when I was younger. My ex boyfriend threw me around and hit me and I sucker punched him and got him right on the bone beneath his eye so he had an instant bump. I was Told there’s a mark on him I have to go!! It is the law!!! I never had any issues with any other man. He was abusive and the one time I stuck up for myself I went to jail. He even tried to drop the case bc he knew I didn’t deserve all this stuff but the state picked it up bc it’s a domestic. Most victims don’t report their abuse that’s what I was told. State will take over even if y’all want to drop it. That’s Florida. I’m actually in the same county as Brian’s parents. I wish it would have happened here and NOt in Utah. Florida doesn’t mess around.
It's unfortunate that the hero's efforts to save her were squashed when the cops bromanced Brian with - Yeah, my wife's crazy too. Let me get you the hotel room so you still know where you're little woman is (back in the van instead of protecting Abby by putting her in a safe place overnight, except there would have been a bigger risk of him stealing her van and abandoning her - better than killing her! Those cops failed!!!)
@@supportvawa2213 you can’t pin this in the police. Sooner or later even if he was arrested or her , they would get back together and he would attempt to harm her
@@Karamelaki very true - the police can't control other people's choices. However, in this specific situation, the cops validated Brian which gave him a boost in getting away with abusing her. In general, in domestic violence cases where a woman files for a restraining order on her abuser but then drops the charges, that gives the abuser the message - I'm getting away with abusing her! And then the abuse amplifies. The cops failure in this situation, compounded with their brotherhood of all men vs those crazy females energy gave Brian the same message. So you are correct. I'm not pinning the blame on them for her death. I'm just pointing out how extremely wrong they were to subliminally encourage the abuse.
The most charitable thing I can think of about Laundrie is that he had all the insecurities of an adolescent, and at age 23 he was still far too immature to be in this sort of a relationship. In his suicide note he still couldn't bring himself to take the responsibility for it. That's spoilt child syndrome
He probably got tired of her coming back. And because she kept coming back, he didn't want to cross contaminate "dna" from another man. Girls night out aint nothin nice
except that if she goes out drinking that likely makes her erradic behavior worse and he didn't want to have to deal with her coming home like that "she was the aggressor" "she hit him first" 'he may have been trying to defend himself' they're asking HER if she intended to hit him and hurt him, and if she said 'yes' she is under arrest for domestic violence they put HIM in a hotel next to an abuse shelter
What her friend said at the end was so touching …. “Gabby will do everything to bring the light out in you, and if she can’t, she’ll give you some of hers.”
Unless you are "bummer boy". Why was she with him if she didn't like his personality and had to trash him and go find a friend online to have fun with?
@@mr.mclibtard5015 That is a huge lie. Stop telling lies about a person you don’t know.She was in a controlling situation with an abusive controlling abuser who killed!!! She was not the controller. If you knew anything about abusive situations you’d know that!!
The amount of people in these comments saying that Gabby Petito's story could have been their own... is frightening. We live in a really scary world. But for what it's worth I'm happy you all are still with us. RIP Gabby.
In my opinion that’s why Gabby’s case gained so much attention. As someone who was in an abusive relationship in the past I felt that could have been me.
I was in an abuse relationship. Kept making all the excuses in the world. We need to teach people what relationships look like. Love doesn't hurt. It's the opposite. I'm glad he was arrested for bank fraud, I may have never gotten out of that relationship. Glad we didn't have kids together. 20yrs later I wish I wasn't so dumb in my 20s.
The victim of domestic abuse ALWAYS tries to protect her abuser. The abuser ALWAYS blames the victim. And she comes to believe it. It’s called GASLIGHTING.
I dated a guy like him. He was so nice but sometimes he would get mad and when he did, he changed in a way that was hard to describe. It gave me chills and my gut said I had to get him out of my house. I kept saying “no, he’s ok he’s just upset, don’t overthink it”. But Vibes don’t lie. If someone scares you, get away from them even if they’re the “nicest person”.
Yep. You must be glad that you didn't stay with him. If the hair stands up on the back of your neck, RUN. Also sometimes little red flags. My sister's boyfriend got mad at her because she walked out of the room he was in, talking to someone on the phone. That romance didn't last much longer. The way Gabby's boyfriend took her ID to prevent her from going to a bar was really possessive and controlling.
@@Tangga1boy01 Love story of a lifetime does not normally contain anger and a gut feeling to get out of it. Even a marital contract and love or children should not neglect that. Way too much domestic violence and kids growing up in dysfunctional families to keep ignoring things.
If only we searched for all missing the way we did for her. They found 9 bodies of other missing people while looking for her. Makes you wonder if we searched that hard for everyone how many less missing people there'd be. Glad they found her and she didn't remain missing. 9 other families finally got answers too so 10 families got answers in that search.
Yes, even dog the bounty hunter got involved. I'm sorry for what happened to gabby. All missing people/children deserve that kind of attention. I can only imagine what families of the missing that have not been found feel about the media attention that was given to gabby?
Well if they had over 2 million followers " that actually WATCHED THEM DISAPPEAR" ,and reported them missing. AFTER A POLICE STOP" they would be found too. Let's not act like " they only looked for Gabby and NOONE else. Her people went hard for her. That's why she was found
@@kaydubya6347 out of all the people saying that you shouldn't be talking at all.... yeah her family went hard for her but there are other factors that played into it to why her case blew up besides her being influencer btw...
@@joannemarquez2085 Dog got involved with finding the perpetrator of a local Moab couple that was murdered and missing, Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner.
I married a narcissist. The crazy-making they do to you is almost indescribable. You know something is wrong, but at the same time they have manipulated you to think it’s your fault. Any time you speak to them calmly, collected, to address a problem, they escalate the discussion until you snap-and then they blame you for being the one to lash out, therefore “proving” their, abuser’s, point that you in fact are the problem.
I know they will never see this but I want to say thank you to the man who reported the dispute, I'm sure they were heart broken when they learned of her death but they honestly did the best thing
I always think of the cops that interviewed the couple when this case comes up. They broke the regulations on DV encounters. How do they feel about their lack of action?
@@I_AM_TEMPLE Gabby and Brian didn't live there, so the police couldn't have held either of them for more than 24 hours. They were separated for the night, there wasn't much else the police could so. There was however a female Park Ranger there on the scene who had given Gabby her card and told her that if she wanted to talk in private, to just give her a call. Gabby never called the Park Ranger. ---It's just Really hard to save people sometimes when they're given a golden opportunity, and they don't respond.
Her story actually saved my life. My ex strangled me and abused me for years and then I saw her story on the news and someone said women who stay with men that strangle them are 8x more likely to die at the hands of their partner. I was on the other side of the world with my ex at the time and I realized if I didn't leave and fly back home to my family I would be another Gabby . I packed my stuff and ran away. 1 year later I met the man I married and we have a beautiful family and he treats me like a princess. Comparing my treatment from my ex to my now husband I realized how brainwashed I was and how much hatred my ex had for me and how that wasn't love at all but a life of slavery and abuse. My ex always tried to get me back and begged me to stay and promised to change and I fell for it every single time. But he loved the control he had over me , he didn't actually love me. I realized when I met my husband now my self worth and how I deserved better and happy life. Running away was the best decision I ever made and it's because of Gabby's story. I felt I saw myself in her eyes. I knew I would never had a happy life if I stayed and he would never change. I was ashamed of being abused but found it impossible to leave because I was so dependent on him living abroad away from my family. I wanted to prove to my family that I could make it anywhere and was ashamed to tell them I was dependent on a man that was abusive. When I finally asked for help to fly back home my family with open arms and unconditional love were there every step and I couldn't be more grateful. Her story will always haunt me because it's sooo close to home for me.
Thank God you got out of that situation that many don’t. You should be very proud of yourself. I’m happy that you are safe and with someone who treats you well. God Bless
Gabby looks so sweet and kind, hearing her speak in the videos reflect that. This case just sticks with me… my heart breaks for the loss of her. She did not deserve any of this. I can’t stand Brian’s parents.
For all of you brave Ladies who walked away from your abusive partners, after watching Gabby videos. Wow! She would have been so proud of you all. God bless you and keep yourself safe
@@LoveMyKidsAndGod Please don’t wait for God to come to your rescue? He’s not coming. God wants us to get out of our bad situations on our own! Most abusers use all kinds of manipulating tactics, to keep women prisoners, in there own life. You have the keys to your freedom in your pocket. You just have to get the strength to get them out and use them, to free yourself. Women stuck in abuse relationships remind me of criminals that sneak up on women in parking lots and threaten them with violence if they don’t do as there told. The weak women obey and usually are murdered. The strong women scream, and the attacker flees! Why? Because they don’t want a strong women that wants to defend herself, they want the weak minded ones. So don’t be weak!! Speak up and get out of there!! The odds are, he will eventually stop contacting you, especially if he’s found another weak women to manipulate! Right now YOU ARE THAT WEAK WOMEN!!!
I freed myself of my ex husband. For years I lived an abusive life for the simple fact I was so terrified of him. I was so afraid of him, that I was afraid to leave. He controlled my every thought and movement. One day he choked me out unconscious THREE times in front of my daughter. Three times. Because I did not have the laundry done on time for him to have fresh clothes for the gym…he left for the gym eventually and I left him for good. My daughter and I are free 😭😭😭😭 we are free 😭😭😭😭
OJ was called on multiple times for abusing Nicole, the police were familiar with it. She'd come running out screaming, from behind the bushes. One time for not having his dinner ready as soon as he walked in the door, another time for leaving her shoes out, and for gaining over 7 pounds when pregnant, yes seven.
When Brian was talking with the Moab police, he offhandedly described Gabby, the woman he supposedly loves, as "crazy." Any time a man nonchalantly or laughingly describes his highly upset wife or girlfriend as crazy, that is a clear sign that he has so traumatized and abused her for so long that she is reacting in ways that show that trauma and abuse. Abby was a victim of narcissistic abuse and all the signs were there in both of them. Narcissists are charming, engaging, disarming, and tremendously manipulative. They know how to frame any situation to their advantage and bring others into assuring their desired results. I've lived this and barely made it past him alive. When a narcissist makes accusations, they're actually confessions. May we all learn from this as we live longer than Gabby did.
This is what Brian said when the first officer walked to the driver's side window."I I I (just) don't want to defend myself here by saying anything but I pushed her away. She gets really worked up and when she does she swings and she had her cell phone in her hand so I was trying to push her away."
They will rile you up on purpose just so they can say you're crazy or to show to others how unstable you are. And people not knowing what's been done to you often believe them.
considering they broke off the engagment before this trip, I'm going to guess that whole "in love" thing didn't work out. try again. these videos really bring out the dumb and crazy,
Exactly what happened to me on the road home to Florida from New England with my boyfriend but he left me in Virginia & now I am safe… same week in August 2021
Gabby's case helped me get away from my abuser. Rest in peace sweet girl you are forever loved 🙏 ****EDIT: TO THE PEOPLE COMMENTING THAT GABBY WAS THE ABUSER, PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE WITH THAT IDIOTIC BS*********
@@thegreatone11 that's an interesting source of inspiration. Would you mind chatting about the details of your testimony, if you are comfortable? What changes did you make in your behavior?
1 time out of 10, a hysterical tearful woman standing next to an extremely calm and pleasant male partner is simply a dramatic/hysterical woman. 9 times out of 10, a hysterical tearful woman standing next to an extremely calm and pleasant male partner is a victim of narcissistic abuse. Period. The “calm” partner is usually the abuser.
Gabby's story helped me finally leave my abuser. I'm so sorry this happened to you I know you helped me and countless people not share the same fate. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@jenniferb2763 nope they didn't. They saw him hit/push her. But according to gabby she started the physical altercation & eyewitnesses saw him hit her AFTER she started assaulting him.
Well, she was murdered, which gives us extra information. It is very predictable that domestic violence victims will lie to protect their abusers. That being known, professionals need to be able to ignore the words in these cases and look at the actions critically. You can look at different signs to get a full picture. And sometimes you can’t tell, but there are certain indications. If you look at different trainings online for professionals,, you can see that scratches at the face are typically defensive wounds. And grabbing someone’s face like that is a warning sign. If someone is trying to hurt someone, a natural reaction isn’t to scratch the face. But, let’s say they are being held down or strangled, they are going to try to get that person off of them. Scratching the face or hands is how they can get them off. So, those types of wounds are suspicious. EVEN if the person is saying they started it, you ignore them, because you already know they’ll lie and size up the situation. Now, you can’t assume things 100%c but if you see certain signs, it can direct your actions to accurately determine the question. With how common domestic violence is, the training should be provided. Body language is important, reading between the lines is important and that kind of toxicity shouldn’t be minimized. Two people called the police because they were concerned. They were swerving the car. I mean…. That’s dangerous. These police seemed really nice to me, just not trained. The police were VERY helpful when I was in a domestic violence situation. I was already at the point, where I was getting help. But they came multiple times to allow me to get myself and my kids out of the house safely. They didn’t write reports, he didn’t get in trouble, but I don’t know that I could have gotten out without them. I mean. I couldn’t have. I guess I’m just saying is that if you know someone saying it’s their fault can actually be an indication that they are the victim, you’ll take that information differently.
Even if they had arrested Brian or Gabby, they would have still gone back to each other. Remember, Gabby told the officers that she and Brian were a team. They were consenting adults. It’s horrible what happened to Gabby-do know that getting out of abusive relationships are extremely difficult.
@@admiralkrankandhismightyba158 Totally agree. The police were obviously trying to give the kids a break. DV charges affect future employment and can cause a variety of other lifelong problems. Shoulda coulda woulda. Hindsight 20/20 and all that.
She was stating she was hitting him. Ohhh right she was taking the blame for him. She had more than ample opportunity to zip back to her parents when they put him a hotel. Did she? No!! She was right back with him posting on the internet in the next fews laughing it up.
Twist things? She gave her statement to police FIRST. Was Brian supposed to lie and say she didn't smack him after she already admitted to it? She was acting a fool while he was driving to the point he was running over the curb and he's the narcissist? Yeah okay 👍
@@adriannavarro2536 she hit him first because he told her to "calm down". She's an insane person. Brian might be too....but she admitted to domestic abuse.
I really hope that Gabby’s parents win their civil case against the Laundries and their lawyer. I escaped an abusive relationship years ago, and it is heartbreaking that Gabby wasn’t able to do the same. Rest in peace Gabby. 💗
No good can come from suing the police or his family. Neither are responsible for Brian Laundries actions. I know her parents are hurting and want some kind of justice, but unfortunately that isn't possible and I hope they lose their lawsuit. All these frivolous lawsuits ultimately harm this nation, and slowly and gradually serve to eviscerate liberty and freedom (in concert with a lot of other horrible corrupt acts/ actions/ laws/ tyranny/ treason).
The police has nothing to do with it. Accountability is what’s missing in today’s society. Brian killed her. That’s it. Stop trying to blame every other person who did nothing.
Having been in a abusive relationship, this whole thing just makes my guts churn. I hope young ladies learn from this, her family, the police, and his parents.
Why do the young ladies have to learn? Why can’t men be held accountable? Both her abusive boyfriend and the policemen who could have saved her - but didn’t.
@@stairwaygoddess what did you want her to do? She gave the hand signal for DV as well. And she confided in 1 close friend. She did enough. She should be here.
@@deltabourke1005 That's complete bull. 15 seconds before the stop she was punching Brian as he drove, she's suddenly "afraid" to talk? Why would she have to give a "signal"? They were completely separated and she begged, almost demanded, that they not be separated. She behaved as a typical female abuser with her tears, baby talk and anything else to control law enforcement. Gabby wasn't afraid of Brian, she was afraid of being alone. That's why she lost her marbles when he suggested a "breather". They should have arrested her.
If her family missed the signs, and her friends missed the signs, and Gabby wasn't saying anything--you can't blame the police. The people closest to her who knew her best didn't do anything (or weren't aware of what was going on); how can you expect the police to evaluate the history in a 5 min stop on the road? Tragic ending; the abusers and their victims are often the only ones who really know what is happening.
The police stopped them for domestic abuse and tried to play cool. "Oh, it was just a kid that hit his girl, he just lost his temper." Wrong! He was an abuser that became a killer short after the police stopped them. And don't forget the horrible job that the police did AFTER he came home alone. He escaped from his house under surveillance and the police missed it!
@@MartineH1 being under surveillance doesn't mean you can't leave the house. He was a free man at that point. He could have legally left the country and police couldn't have stopped him.
What kind of man hits a woman? He was so much bigger and stronger than her. An abuser is typically a Narscissist. He groomed Gabby through gaslighting her that she was the problem. His parents would have seen it, she didn't live with her family with him but his family are possibly Narscissist also. My parents would have turned us in to try police if we killed someone or broke the law.

If the cops had actually listened to the 911 call they would have known she was in danger. What good is the call if they don't hear it??? Lousy police work. They have blame.

I was trapped in an abusive marriage for almost a decade. I never once cheated, I never physically harmed him, and I never even screamed at him. And yet, like Gabby, I always found myself taking the blame. I always took the fall. People just don't understand the phycological impact that abuse has and how it can trap and change a person.
yes because they begin to systenatically run off any one who loves you, parents, siblings, friends, then they isolate you furthr like by getting you to move awayfrom your family or go on a tip where no one knowswhere you are at half the time. They will hack your phone, intercept mesages, email, real mail to stop people from staying in your life until they give up, thinking you are ignoring their efforts intentionally. They at the same time begin being crueler & crueler to you, lil bit by lil bit but always usingexcuses like I dranktoo much, or it's mydad's fault he beat me that's wy I'm a nut when drink too much or they'll just deny what happened , happened. They'll be lying, hitting on your griends, family even to run them off, they'll steal from your family, their family, work if they work, while charging thousands to credit cards they stole or that belonged to their last victim, or even new credit cards that they've used your info (they copied down from your wallet while you took a bath, or slept or...) to take out cards in your name & charge on them. You won't suspect such a level of 2 faced, rottenness that these kind of people operate in all their lives, in pursuit of their addictions & their hedonistic selfishness. TThey have no conscience, they never regret the misery inflicted on their victims because hey aretoo busy feeling sorry for themselves, for no reason. But they hook you good then slowly keep pushing more and more boundaries, to get you to put up with the inexcusable, forgive the unforgiveable and do for them, alays not caring what they do to you. The more you take, the harder they will work to destroy you.
I followed this case very closely as it was unfolding & I was absolutely devastated when they found her. I've endured alot of abuse in my personal life & I felt so much pain for Gabby. I was her age when I was involved in my first abusive relationship & I finally walked away from the guy after he almost shot me one night; He was tweaking on meth & he thought someone was breaking into our home. The bullet flew over my head & went into the wall behind me. While that was a wake up call at that time, I ended up in another abusive relationship when I was 29 & that relationship/marriage went on for 12 years. It destroyed my life & I'm now a 42 y.o. widow fighting to take my life back. To all of you young men & women who've experienced abuse (in any form), please understand that you deserve so much better. Unfortunately, most people don't change for the better & no matter how much you love them, no amount of love is worth losing your life over ❤️.
I’m single and have been through abusive relationships with men who are not emotionally there now I’ve been spending time with God…(lots of time with him) and it’s been refreshing.
I was with my abusive ex the same exact time as this case was going on. I finally left him November 2022. Everything is even harder when you have zero support system, nobody who cares about you, not even family. I have tons and tons of trauma to be healing from.💔😖

It feels like couples/people who are always posting happy moments on social media outlets are the ones that have hidden toxic lives and noone knows about the darkness until it is too late. Such a young joyful spirited young woman gone too soon.
Her best friend put it perfectly at 2:30 "A lot of couples look nice on instagram." Social media is the perfect place for someone to pass themselves off as normal/innocuous at the surface.
He was jealous of her because she was so beautiful, vibrant and talented! she will always be remembered while he will be completely forgotten!! That’s Justice for our GABBY ❤️
No, it's because women these days believe there are no guard rails in relationships and believe they can do whatever they want when they want and then wonder why their SO gets upset about it.
You can’t live like you are in a movie 😢. I wish kids would understand this more. Keep a tight community of safety and protection. Friendship is a product of that community. Documenting things excessively makes even the author forget reality when looking back. Your life is way more precious than looking like you have a perfect life. Stay safe everyone. 🙏🏾
@Jane Smith. I totally agree with your statement. I think that Gabby was receiving subscriber funds to help support her adventure. She had to post the Van Life so that they could gain more subscribers and support.
"You can’t live like you are in a movie" Tweets, facebook posts, and youtube videos are the "movies" of our modern time, and the Internet is the modern day "Hollywood". In a way, Gabbi is the Marilyn Monroe of our time. In the end, Brian and Gabbi got exactly what they wanted. They became internet superstars, though perhaps not exactly in the way they wished. Fame always comes at a price.
Gabby’s story helped so many other women and men get away from abusive and toxic relationships. I remember being upset about it and I immediately knew it was the fiancé. He looked suspicious and his family was protecting him, I bet they bad mouthed her. Brian is an abusive, toxic, and a narcissist. His family is no better and deserved to be charged as well.
@Drey Anastasio Because Gabby was swinging and hitting him to the point of injury while he was driving and she admitted to hitting him first. She said she was trying to get him to stop telling her to calm down. The police were behind them with their lights flashing. These were Brians Injuries according to the Moab Report. Gabby left scratches and bruises on Brian. The bruising and bleeding was from her hitting him with her phone _while he was driving_ From Investigative Review of Aug. 12, 2021 Petito-Laundrie Incident in Moab Park Ranger Ryan Kral, points out scratches on the left side of Brian’s neck, left side of his nose, scratch near the center of his face, and bruise and bleeding on the right side of his head. Officer Robbins finds an additional injury on Brian’s right bicep/tricep area. Brian said he was not in any pain, and that he "wasn’t complaining.”
Yes, I'm sure you'd punish him very much for not chasing you headfirst off an emotional cliff. I'm sure he's very happy and not at all aging like milk.
The smile he has when getting out of the police car at the hotel is sickening. Knowing his narcissistic charm worked once again. The whole situation was so sad all the way around.
@@sr2291 He could have flown back home the next day and gotten away from her if he really wanted to.. except he had nothing and no life without her, and was living off of Gabby.. the guy was a narcissistic loser and killed himself because he knew he murdered the only person who really loved him. His whole ‘mercy killing’ story was such bullsh!t! But just proof of the narcissist he was and that he couldn’t take responsibility or blame for murdering her.. but tried to play the hero 🙄 It wasn’t the first time he strangled her, Gabby said that he did it that day to the police, which is why she hit him.. but she was trying to cover for him.. it’s what victims do to lessen their abuse
The police officers must feel so bad. The fact that she's trivializing what he did and making herself look like the bad person is a classic sign of someone who has gone through the abusive cycle.
They need to be retrained, and PRONTO! Condolences to the family; It's peculiar to me, that knowing a woman's slap can't ever be as FORCEFUL AS a return slap by a MALE...wasn't even addressed.Somebody needs to send a few "compassionate " police officers back to grade school, to learn how to make appropriate DECISIONS; if they didn't understand the concept of domestic violence! And OUNCE of prevention could have prevented POUNDS of their decisions! SHE gets the keys to the VAN, whoopie do, a single female is to continue driving ALL ALONE, while HE gets a ride to his hotel room, compliments of the police department ? SEND HER AND THE VAN TO THE HOTEL providing HIM shelter, and pay for TWO rooms and a SECURITY GUARD. WAS MONEY an element in their stupid decisions? You protected the WRONG person, and blood is on YOUR hands now! "Man on the Run"
And to know that they found so many other dead bodies in searching for Gabby, although her story ends sad, it sure helped a lot of people. Especially the ones who got out of abusive relationships! Rest in Paradise Gabby ❤️
Who goes to paradise? There's this collective socially accepted RIP philosophy that if you die a certain way you go to heaven. I'm not saying she didn't, but you can't say she did. Jesus said unless you are born again you can't enter into the kingdom of God. Without looking that up, ask yourself, how do you become born again.
My point is exactly, I can't say she went to heaven or not. I said rest in Paradise which means rest peacefully! Regardless where she went, please don't comment under my comment talking about stuff that will start sh*t! Move past my comment and read along. I'll never get it understand why people like you do this stuff!
I don't think I'll ever forget her or her story. I lived in a DV for 13+ years with my ex-husband and I know the pain of loving a man with all your being, seeing in him the 'Good' and thinking if just this, that he'll change or he truly was sorry this time. In the end, I had to take both our children and run leaving everything and everyone behind. I was blessed though because it was his parents that ultimately helped us disappear and through an amazing Judge who helped us change our names, SS's and sealed our records. He is dead now and we're finally free after living in fear for 20+ years. I pray that Gabbie's story will encourage others living in a DV situation to see it as it is and find the courage to choose life over being imprisoned by a one-way love.
Wow! Glad you and your family are safe and okay. It was really _his_ parents that helped you guys? I didn't know that the courts/legal system go as far as changing name/locations except in major cases requiring witness protection. can you explain more about that? I am truly just curious. Thank you very much.
I think about Gabby often. I lived walking distance from her Mom in a nice town on Long Island and have a child born only a few months away from Gabby’s birthdate. I grew up in an abusive household and saw daily what happens. We all lived day to day hoping that our worst fears would not be a reality but, at a certain point, everyone just knew the worst thing possible had happened to this beautiful, young woman. I feel especially sad that when my child has a birthday, I think how yet another year is passing that Gabby’s family would not be celebrating. 💜🙏🏻
What scares the crap out of me is that this was my first marriage. The abuse, the cries for help and no one saw it. After 22 years I was able to get out. Thank God.... but this brings out so much fear in me of what could have been!
I was also in an abusive marriage. I remember ringing my Nan and asking for help, she had a spare room and I hoped to move in with her. She said "it's a shame he doesn't hit you as then you could go to a woman's refuge".... 1 year later I left him and rang her and said "I'm coming to yours, I've left him. I have nowhere else to go.". She was lovely and helped me for a few months. Now, I'm in a wonderful relationship and moved almost 1500 miles away to North Europe and am back in university. My ex tried so hard to destroy me, he failed. I'm flourishing thanks to my amazing current partner of 5 years.
@@craigime Don't know about her, but yeah I did, plenty of times. Every time the police arrived, my ex was calm and collected while I was tearful and emotional. My mental instability and my part in the altercation was used by my ex to convince the police that he was the patient long-suffering husband of a neurotic hysterical woman, and that me to going to jail would only further exacerbate my mental illness. Each time they left, he was no longer percieved as my abuser, but rather my protector, and I would end up apologizing and thanking him for saving me from being arrested. So many people have no idea how domestic abuse batters the victim's psyche, or what a cry for help sounds like.
I was in an abusive marriage in my early twenties. When I saw the video of Gabby (in this video at 19:21) when I first heard she was missing, I knew she was being abused. Her face is smiling, but her eyes are full of pain and sorrow. I lived this way, too. Everyone thought I had the perfect marriage. I never told anyone while it was happening. My heart breaks for her and her loved ones.
I know I'm not the only one to feel this way: I took one look at Gabby, crying and cringing and making excuses for Brian, shifting the blame onto herself and trying to absolve him, and I knew _right then and there_ he was abusing her. Because that's what people who are abused do, they try to defuse the situation so that they won't be punished later, in private. Brian's mother is absolutely vile.
A female police officer spoke to her and gave Gabby her phone number in case she wanted to talk in private. Apparently, she never called the officer and got back together with Brian the next morning.
Condolences to the family; It's peculiar to me, that knowing a woman's slap can't ever be as FORCEFUL AS a return slap by a MALE...wasn't even addressed.Somebody needs to send a few "compassionate " police officers back to grade school, to learn how to make appropriate DECISIONS; if they didn't understand the concept of domestic violence! And OUNCE of prevention could have prevented POUNDS of their decisions! SHE gets the keys to the VAN, whoopie do, a single female is to continue driving ALL ALONE, while HE gets a ride to his hotel room, compliments of the police department ? SEND HER AND THE VAN TO THE HOTEL providing HIM shelter, and pay for TWO rooms and a SECURITY GUARD. WAS MONEY an element in their stupid decisions? You protected the WRONG person, and blood is on YOUR hands now! "Man on the Run"
I don't know how Brian's family could have kept silent. My God, your son just killed someone that you had living with you. I understand you love your son, but he took an innocent life. Why would you want to protect someone like that? They should have a lot of guilt and I hope they get punished.
My thoughts exactly. I know my parents love me, but if I told them I had killed someone I am pretty sure they would call the cops on me right then and there. Which is what they SHOULD do!
@@amina-pr8xtthere was a letter in Brian’s mom’s possession that eluded to his crime. It said to burn the letter after reading, but it wasn’t burnt. Talked about in the end.
I agree and his parents should have told him to turn himself In. I expect that he told the same story to his mom as he wrote down. That it was an accident - she hurt herself and was in agony and he put her out of her misery. I hope his mom will contemplate every night on her son with a bullet through his brain - because she did not turn him in when she had the chance.
Her situation reminded me so much of mine. Abusive marriage for over a decade. Broken bones. Being raped. times where I was convinced... this is it... I'm going to die. I had nothing. Too scared to leave. It wasnt until my childhood grade school sweetheart literally helped me escape. Got us a place. I was still stalked but it thankfully stopped after a few years. I'm 33 now I've been free for almost 4 years But I'll forever broken, nasty teeth. An ugly smile. from abuse and never will I be able to afford to fix it. So it's a constant reminder. It sucks. But I'm free.
You are so sweet. I JUST started establishing my credit shortly after leaving. It's been a few years I escaped. So I will hopefully have good enough credit soon to get care credit. Thank you for caring and giving advice. It means a lot. Truly.
Thank you for sharing. Many young girls and women read these stories and choose to stay single instead of being with narcissistic men brought up by a patriarchal society. People need to look up narcissism. And people need to support people choosing to stay single. Too many narcissists and psychos out there.
It’s nice to hear from the people who knew her best. I have a daughter about the same age, and Gabby´s story hit me so hard. I’m heartbroken for her parents.
I live locally to the laundrie house, didn't know them - but it's spooky to think I use the same infrastructure / stores, beaches, trails, etc. as gabby & brian : (
No matter how well or often I hear Gabby’s story, it always brings tears to my eyes. So senseless is this heartbreaking loss. All prayers for her family and loved ones. Always.
@@brendanbloomberg3283 F’ em. The least they could’ve done no matter who’s side your on is answer Gabby’s parents calls when they didn’t know where their daughter is, & they didn’t. They don’t deserve any sympathy whatsoever
Law enforcement separated them and he went to a hotel. She has the van, the keys, and the van is in her name. If she decides to reunite the next morning, what more could the officers have done? If they had “issued a citation”…that wouldn’t have done anything to stop this tragedy. If they had arrested either one of them, they would have bonded out the next morning and same result. There’s not always someone to blame for our own bad choices, as unfortunate and unfair as that may be.
Any time for her to get to think about this, determine whether Brian was the right guy for her, to talk to her mom on the phone, to do anything may have changed the course of this. An arrest should have absolutely been made - the thing they didn't show was the body cam footage where the officers were talking about "crazy girlfriends" with Brian. Their own misogyny was a factor, too (which isn't really surprising when you find out the rate of domestic violence in police households). Regardless, no one will ever truly know. But I'd like to think they could have set things on a different track had they just arrested one or both of them.
@@alteredcatscyprus they were over 18. I don't think legally they could call their parents. Maybe they could have offered resources to both of them for domestic violence. Maybe she would of called ..
The police officer who sent Laundrie to the motel and gave Gabby the vehicle was, I believe, hoping she would leave and go home. He could not force her to do this. She would be alive today had she made that choice.
I agree, but its not always shown in Violence. A toxic person is always a Narcistic Person, we should learn those signs and not have a realtionship with those who re toxic cause they never love, those toxic people only control, blame, shame outhers, and need the outher person so much that they manipulate them to stick with them.
Schools? That's tough at home. If a man is abusing me and I let it happen, what kind of message will I be giving my daughter and my son? That's ok for a man to hit a woman and a woman to hit a man? I try really hard to understand why will anybody allow a partner to hit them, specifically when your kids are witnessing it all. It is unacceptable. I offered help to a friend that was being abused and she refused all my help. She loved that man more than herself.
No person should be high fiving police during a domestic violence call. No person should be completely comfortable and confident during a situation like that. Any person with a conscience would feel a lot of shame and nervousness. It makes me really worried that the police men had to get "additional training" to be able to see this
That would be my ex! He told me how the sheriffs who arrested him told him that he’s a great guy and out of place being arrested. (I’m sure this was all lies.) But definitely a narcissist will be showing everyone else what a “great guy” he is. This is why it’s infuriating to the victims, because he fools everyone else.
One of the police officers in that traffic stop was accused of DV by his wife so not shocked that they all felt comfy with each other, just a couple of abusers hanging out atp.
Everyone’s blaming that cop but I think the cop did the best he could with the information he had. He seems like a cop that’s not just trying to ruin people’s lives. He did separate them for the night. And it still happened. People are like “well he should’ve arrested one of them” ok you really don’t think it would’ve happened later? This was gonna happen. Their relationship was too toxic
You fail to understand that rates of domestic violence are highest among law enforcement. Far higher than the population at large. There are clear red flags & warning signs that cops should be aware of. And while yes, there can be women abusers- literally 95% of the time it is the males. For anyone who has any experience with this- the red flags were BLARING that Brian was full of 💩. The cop, as nice as he sounds- clearly IDENTIFIED WITH BRIAN & made it personal.
Yeah everyone playing Monday quarterback like they know best is troubling in society also Gabby would’ve be the one that went to jail in the footage and experience I’ve had and would of just hooked back up about the same time if not earlier. Sad story though for sure
@@liligh not taking it seriously? He tried his best to not ruin either of their lives. He believed it was just a normal young couple fight where both weren't able to control their emotions, which resulted in slapping, etc. He would have definitely considered the fact that they were young, engaged, with a huge future ahead of them. Making an arrest would obviously ruin everything and he didn't want that. That's why he thought: maybe separate them for a day, let them cool down and hopefully they will work things out. It's a perfectly reasonable response. Unless you make it a hard and fast rule to immediately arrest anyone who laid a hand on their partner, you will always expect such response from the cops. Cuz it's human tendency to not want to ruin relationships
I saw the traffic stop video back when she and abuser were announced missing Sister and I just looked at each other. She dead, and he killed her. Seen all that behavior a thousand times as a bartender.
@@rebeccawoolfolk5377yes because she was crazy 😂 it takes some kind of crazy girl from Long Island to think they can just get up and go on a cross country road trip with zero experience.
@@gophukyurselvs3621Then why didn’t he leave? In all footage, why is she the one constantly apologising? Why is she the one who has clearly been tormented? Take the hint within your own username.
Unfortunately even with an arrest or citation it wouldn’t have changed a thing. The two would’ve got right back together as soon as he got out a few days later. That’s how those relationships work
The worst part of this is that this issue is only being addressed as a “woman’s problem”, that we need to teach our daughters how to avoid being a victim, and how to get out of the situation. When are we going to address teaching our sons to never do this at all??? It takes two, people!
I don't think verbally telling your son not to do this would prevent it, there are much deeper implications such as childhood trauma that form abusers.
@@trevthegamedev As I said, “teach.”. We as a society need to teach children that it’s okay to ask for help and then provide it. It is not okay that the police at the roadside thought that this young woman was just a bit overwhelmed and that it was okay for the young man to say “she’s crazy”. But I understand your point as well. Thanks for your input.
@@msk4795 I appreciate your input too, but I do have to disagree on blaming the police here. These are standard officers who handle all sorts of calls. I think only a high-level detective would have been able to know she wasn't telling them the truth. If I were them with the same knowledge they had, I highly doubt I would have known either.
@@trevthegamedev And again, I said to teach our children (nor did I blame the police here), so then the police will have learned before they become adults. Plus it is a sad thing that you would not have known, while just about every woman watching cringed (trained or not) when he called her crazy. I think this just makes my point, don’t you?
@@msk4795 I'm afraid not. If a person with their level of training and the knowledge they had hears the man say the woman is crazy, and the woman apologize for "being so mean" and admits she "hit him first", then I think the logical conclusion is that they're telling the truth. But I'm not sure what that even has to do with your initial point, you said we need to "address teaching our sons to never do this at all". My point is that our society already makes that clear with the laws and the general sense of morality. Abusers are formed from bad upbringings that cause issues deep in their subconscious mind, not a lack of teaching against this sort of behavior.
I don't think she just got attention merely because of her color skin and hair and eyes, I think her being a van lifer played a HUGE role. Van lifers seem to have a knit online community, so of course something like a van life blogger who is also female going missing is going to go viral just from them alone freaking out and sharing this information. And then once it hit mainstream it skyrocketed probably due to the things they say about her appearance, but to say that it's THAT alone is insulting. She seemed like a vivacious spirit, just someone who wanted to have adventure and fun in life. Most people lose that when they're not children anymore, so these people stand out a lot, and she really worked hard and made herself.
Holy crap, THIS!!! She also had a large internet presence and following, if she was Black and had the same internet following it’d be treated the same way
Hate to say it but Gabby’s family blaming police is ridiculous. They knew the couple MUCH longer, they had FAR MORE opportunities to intervene, to realize this was a dangerously toxic relationship. But they want to blame the police for not realizing this after just meeting them? Sorry but there is clearly a sense of guilt that they are projecting onto others.
I completely agree with you. One hour spent with this couple by the police is supposed to solve an abusive relationship that had been going on for quite some time. Didn’t the parents see any of this? If they didn’t see it how were the police supposed to see it? Everyone always wants to blame everybody else.
I was abused by a girl for about a year, as a man its very hard to admit a girl half your size was abusing you. She was always lovely in public but at home she was pure evil. People I tried to talk to never really believed me including family until I left her and the abuse escalated. This is very sad I can understand how it escalated. If my ex was twice the size as me I would be in much worse shape now
@@coccinelle8888Thanks, Im married now to a lovely lady and we have a beautiful family. The psychology involved in an abusive relationship for anyone who has never been in one is hard to understand especially if you actually love the person which is even harder to understand. Im lucky now my wife and I don't fight and hardly argue life is much easier when you get along and let each other have fun.
You know it takes a special kind of stupid to come to the conclusion that Gabby was a domestic abuse survivor! There was zero evidence that he was abusing her that day, and her own words saying exactly the opposite that she abused him. He had signs of being hit on his face and arm she did not. She said "I was being mean to him because I have ocd and was upset". Everyone sees a crying emotional pretty young girl and immediately looks for a man to vilify for it, and it is absolute bs. Notice how they never asked any of his friends about his character or family telling stories about what kind of person he was before all of this. It's possible he was the one being abused by a girl with unrealistic expectations, and a compulsive personality disorder. One day he snapped and did something awful. I'm not saying that is what happened, but there is more evidence to support that than her being a chronicle battered woman.
Ugh it's heart wrenching to hear what happened to Gabby. Rest in peace. I do appreciate the commentary on how her case was recognized over other cases. It should make us more aware of all of the cases of individuals who go missing and don't receive media attention.
This story is so haunting, not only because Gabby’s spirit touched so many, but also because there are so little answers. I pray that the family finally gets the answers they deserve.
A months long camping trip is actually a good way to find yourself. It really gives you time to think about who you are as a person. It forces you to be present with yourself. If you do this with another person you better be prepared to see them in a different light (whether good or bad) because it will also force you to see them, and they see you more accurately. If you are with a psycopath it can spell complete disaster, as it did here.
You're right. There is a saying that you don't truly know a person until you live with them, and that is definitely the truth, in my experience. I bet camping within a small space is even clearer quickly.
100%! I think it’s something every one should experience once. I went on a 2 week solo camping expedition and honestly, it was one of the best time I’ve had in life... I learned so much about myself.
@@admiralkrankandhismightyba158 Oh yes.. I love love being with nature! Its such a different feeling when you experience nature solo than with people though. I haven’t been to Grand Teton but I think that’s going to be my next adventure.
Shame on Gabby’s parents for blaming the 2 officers and trying to destroy their careers. The officers separated them, provided a hotel room, and begged gabby several times to tell them if she is ok. They were extremely professional and sympathetic. She admitted to assaulting the boyfriend, had no marks on her, and the boyfriend’s story matched up. Blaming the 2 good officers for their daughter’s deletion is disgraceful. Here’s a tip: how about not allowing your daughter to run off with a bald creep in a windowless fan across the country? I hope the officers still have careers and are keeping the public safe, despite gabby’s parents doing their best to destroy their lives. RIP Gabby
Even if the police arrested Gabby that day, the two of them would have united again. They were together, miles and miles away from home and they only had each other as support. Whether or not this would have prevented an ultimate date with fate, that being the demise of Gabby, no one knows. This guys parents need to be thrown in jail for harboring a criminal, why this hasn't happened yet is beyond me.
i agree with that viewpoint of yours . you go back to the abuser way too often. 15 years for me then i left, even my children were begging me. three times in an abuse shelter. now my life is amazing. thank you Lord!
A big thank you to Gabby's mom for fighting to get police better trained in understanding the hidden dynamics and the obvious involving domestic abuse. Poor girl was traumatized and overwhelmed. His mask fell off and he got her isolated, she saw behavior there wasn't enough time to put into words..She suddenly felt her world turning upside down and he probably kept oscillating between nice then cruel, gaslighting and manipulating. He was wearing her down while she was trying to grow.. Perhaps the scenes of them being pulled over can be used to promote education to officers across the nation.. RIP! Gabby Petito
The question is really why did mom not pick up her daughter's distress, but asks the police to do so, who are complete strangers. I talk to my daughter on regular bases and I know when there is stress is her relationship.
LE isn’t in the social work business. If there’s no crime involved, why should cops get involved unless the abused person requests their help? I abhor what happened, but Gabby was an adult and had options. If she wanted help, all she had to do was ask. Not even LE: Anyone would have intervened in her defense. Blaming the troopers for not being clairvoyant is irrational. There wasn’t admission or evidence of a history of abuse. If she had even posted a complaint online, it would have constituted proof of the problem. If it was one fight of only a few in their relationship, is there grounds to charge someone with domestic violence? When troopers separated them in Moab, she had the opportunity to drive away and leave Brian in the motel. She clearly didn’t feel threatened. The Laundries are all at fault, but Gabby’s mother is pointing fingers.
@@jimbrown9817 The Laundries aren't responsible for what transpired between two consenting adults. The question isn't if Gabby was the aggressor, the question is, why wasn't she arrested after the cops determined she was the aggressor?
@@emersonmanning6523 The Laundrie parents could, in a certain light, be considered accessories after the fact for conspiring to deliberately conceal a capital crime. Personally, I don’t want cops busting people on he said, she said grounds. That’s why red flag laws are such a slippery slope. Gabby should have told them that she felt threatened and had reacted accordingly, and then left with the van.
They could have recognized the signs of abuse. When you know the telltale signs they’re painfully obvious in that video. Gaslighting is called crazy making. The issues are also bigger here. We need to reevaluate the very definition of abuse. Emotional abuse is often Mini Ed and carries no consequences for abusers. It needs to be part of the conversation. It is where it starts.
This is ridiculous that they want to blame anybody but the person that did this. It’s not the responsible of the police to make people stay away from each other. Even if they would’ve held held him for one day, she would’ve been right back with him.
They need a scapegoat. The family are the ones who should have seen the signs, not the police. The family were the ones who should have known, and kept Gabby from Bryan, not the cops.
It’s easiest to blame others & think if “someone” just did something! ( like in the case of the police & they not arresting either Gab or Brian) when I watch Gabby, I see me. I was in my teens & met a 30 something man who promised me the world & even though I was abused by him, I married him anyway. To make a long story short, when he was good he was wonderful but when bad you never knew what would happen. I covered up for him all the time, saying that I ran in a door, I fell down, etc, etc. I would leave him but always return because he made me feel that I needed him, we were soul mates & this is what happens in relationships & I believed him. I finally realized that he may end my life & I got out for good but not until I was in my mid twenties (I suffered many years & still do from the aftermath) there is no doubt in my mind, that if we lead the life as Gab did on the road, I would not be here today! For all who are in an abusive relationship, this is not normal. Get help, get out before it’s too late!
So you say "For all who are in an abusive relationship, this is not normal. Get help, get out before it’s too late!", but yet you admit, "met a 30 something man who promised me the world & even though I was abused by him, I married him anyway"? So you don't follow your own advice?
I agree 110%, I left my abusive relationship two years ago, it was really hard for me because I was so "in love" with him. And I was in that relationship for almost 5 years. I was abused, controlled, lied to, cheated on and I was only fooling myself thinking he would change, thinking he'd stop being mean. And I found myself lying to myself and everyone around me, just seeing what was good and staying so blind to all what was bad and I started hating myself and finally I just woke up one morning and starting planning to leave him. Because I knew if I didn't I would die by his hands or worse. But I did it.
@@unmalo2768 She eventually left her abuser. She's trying to give advice to other women based on her life experience. No need to be so cold and callous.
I left, and now I look back at all of that and look at it as I wonder why I stayed as long as I did. I was only being tortured. It was pure agony and now I live a peaceful and free life and I wish all those that are in a situation like that to get out and never look back.
My husband's abuse was carefully and cunningly curated to look, feel and appear to everyone around us like love and safety. It started when I was 15 and he was 21. Fast forward to April 2023, my last straw was his confession to sleeping with prostitutes that were likely human trafficking victims for over a year. I still had to build up the courage to leave and get my babies to safety. In the process, my husband became violent and I had no choice but to defend myself. Days later, he told police I assaulted him. It took months for the leading prosecutor to finally see that I have been his victim for 27 years. He's still blaming me for his choices because he lost the person he loved to hurt the most, but I am officially "No Contact" and raising our youngest son alone without any support from him. I'd rather die a thousand violent deaths than ever spend another moment in my husband's presence. I'm only holding off on the divorce proceedings until I find out if they're going to charge my husband with perjury and falsifying a police report.
This is a lesson to any young people. If a man this much older than you is pursuing you as a teen, this is NOT NORMAL and is not okay. They are not a good person and are after you because you are easy to manipulate, they do not want a partner on equal footing. Run far away
I felt so sad hearing what Gabby went through. She was a lovely human being & sadly a victim of domestic violence. May she rest in peace and never be forgotten. 🙏💕
What a beautiful statement about Gabby from her friend to end the show with..."She'll do everything to bring your light out and if she can't she'll give you some of hers" ❤🙏❤
I saw his manipulative trait at the ‘traffic stop.’ Being a former abused victim, I learned abuse, separation, isolation, manipulation, body language, & many other signs. The officers should have noticed some of those things. Brian ‘pulled’ the officers right into ‘his’ side. One officer ‘high 5’d’ him. And Brian smiled the majority of the time with being in the presence of the officers.
Brian made a deal with the cops that if he went to a motel room paid for the women's shelter they would not arrest her and give her the van keys to drive away.
You're projecting. It's impossible to see the facts while projecting. The red flags were coming from Gabby, particularly her continued attempts to control Brian. Victims don't do that, abusers do. He looked thankful for the separation.
@@alisonchaplin8641 Men usually cover their anger and hurt behind a false veneer because it's not manly to act like a female and cry. You can see that Brian was having a hard time admitting that she was swinging and hitting him.
