Top News Today
Brian Laundrie and Gabby Petito, who were engaged, decided to take a road trip across America for recreation. Police were alerted to a domestic dispute between the couple during their travels. Laundrie cut the trip short and returned alone to his parent’s home in Florida, while Petito went missing. As authorities initiated a search for Gabby Petito, Brian Laundrie also went missing and was considered a “person of interest” in her disappearance. Gabby Petito was later found dead. Her cause of death was due to human strangulation. Now, it appears Brian Laundrie has also been found dead — and police are perplexed.
Last week, human remains were found inside a Florida reserve under 3 feet of water. Although dental records validated that the dismembered remains are those of Brian Laundrie, the death has been ruled inconclusive. It has also created more questions than answers.
“Brian Laundrie’s autopsy has not provided a manner or cause of death and his remains are now being transferred to an anthropologist,” attorney Steven Bertolino said on behalf of the Laundrie family. He added that the family plans to cremate Laundrie’s remains and will not hold a funeral service.

Authorities are digging deep into this case and want to know if the Laundrie family knows about what happened to Gabby Petito or any information about the disappearance of Brian Laundrie.
“Did they help him escape? Did they help destroy evidence?” Palm Beach County, Florida, State Attorney Dave Aronberg said during a CNN appearance on Friday. “What did they know?”
“I mean the closure is really, did he do it or did he not do it. That is going to be the overarching feeling based on my experience,” Aronberg said.
However, not everyone believes that Laundrie is really dead.
Did Brian Laundrie kill Gabby Petito? Did he commit suicide after committing murder? If he killed himself, how did he become dismembered? How did his remains end up underwater? Have authorities made a mistake in ruling that the human remains are actually those of Laundrie? Could this all be a setup to end the search for Laundrie? Is it possible that Laundrie might still be alive?
Will we ever really know the truth?

That is certainly true of his parents. Their behavior has been “very odd” to say the least. But DJ sums it all up in a nutshell:
