A 22-year-old New York woman who documented her cross-country van road trip on social media was reported missing by her mother on Saturday after her fiancé returned to their home in Florida without her, reports said.

Gabby Petito and her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, embarked on their road trip on July 2 from Blue Point, New York, Newsday reported.
The two were living in a 2012 Ford Transit van and documenting their travels on Instagram and YouTube, often using the hashtag #vanlife.
Petito was last seen checking out of a hotel with Laundrie on August 24. She last spoke to her family on the phone the next day, telling them she had arrived at Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming, her mother, Nicole Schmidt, said.

Her mother told reporters on Monday that she FaceTimed with Petito around August 23 or 24.
Petito's most recent Instagram post was shared on August 25.

Schmidt told Fox News on Sunday that she was unsure whether her daughter had left Grand Teton. She said she exchanged texts with Petito's number twice after August 25.
"I did receive a text from her on the 27th and the 30th, but I don't know if it was technically her or not, because it was just a text," Schmidt said. "I didn't verbally speak to her."
Laundrie eventually returned to the couple's home in North Port, Florida, without Petito, though it was not clear when he arrived, the Daily Mail reported.
The police in New York's Suffolk County said Schmidt filed a missing-person report on Saturday.

"Petito, 22, of Blue Point, is described as a white female, approximately 5 feet 5 inches tall and 110 pounds," the press release said. "She has blonde hair and blue eyes, and several tattoos, including one on her finger and one on her forearm that reads 'let it be.'"

The press release said authorities had recovered the couple's van during their investigation.
Petito and Laundrie had been living in North Port together for two years before they set out on their road trip, the Daily Mail said. Petito announced their engagement on Instagram in July 2020.

She could be anywhere as they were traveling cross-country. I put the location as the last place her family could verify that she was still in communication.

hopefully they are looking into communication between him and his parents prior to him leaving out west...as in they aided/advised him from the beginning.

In order for them to retain an attorney, they must have been told 'something' by Brian that would warrant legal representation.

Steven P Bertolino, the attorney for the Laundrie family, said he will hold the press conference Tuesday at 1 p.m.. ABC7 will carry the feed on Facebook.

or he has a history of doing things they need to cover him for.

[Cousin Dupree]

Am I the only one who doesn't think Brian Laundrie is alive? We've seen so many of these cases where the perp goes missing and ends up harming himself.

No, I think the same thing. I think he committed suicide somewhere.

Her dad is on Sr Phil right now.
He said Brian was always respectful.
They always seemed happy.
He’s never seen them fight.
They had taken a cross country trip together before, just not in a van



It appears this was prerecorded so I’m assuming it was from last week prior to finding Gabby.

 

[Guess Who]

No, I think the same thing. I think he committed suicide somewhere.

that or that is what they want us to believe

I just find it hard to believe they would go pick up the car on Thursday and not alert LE immediately.

I think he may have left the country

Haven't seen you in awhile, hope you are doing well! Yeah, they remind me of the Anthony's. Gabby fricking lived with them at their house!!

I don't know if he has left the country, we don't even know if he has a passport. Though they live on the West Coast of FL and could probably get someone to take him on a boat to anywhere, if he had the means to do so. It's a small community, so IMO not very likely, but who knows. I am more inclined to think he is hiding out somewhere in a park or other area. Or, he has already committed suicide.

IMO

i saw a glimpse of a news cast where a neighbor is stating that the Mustang has not moved all week, that it was there Tuesday and Wednesday, putting a hole in the story that they picked it up, but the family is saying that a note from police was found on it at the park

Wasn't there a neighbor who took a pic of Brian leaving from the back of the property Friday night a few hours before LE arrived?

If the family found a "note" from the police, it seems the officer that left said "note" could verify this. Eh?

The only "note" I've ever seen a cop leave on a car that was illegally parked was called a ticket and very verifiable

I've seen cars broken down on the side of the highway with a red or pink sticker on the drivers side window. Guessing it says move your before a certain date or it will be towed.

this thought crossed my mind also.... but than again.... it also could be that he went into hiding..... why would the parents pick his car up from a place he allegedly went missing and not calling it in right away...? that just doesn't make sense.... my guess would be that Brian and the parents claim that he went there but I am certain that he would not take off in a car known to be connected to him or the parents,, I wonder if there is any movement on any social media, also I wonder if the bank accounts are being monitored, and not only his but the parents one's also... the question would be were there bigger withdrawals prior him going "missing"..
