Anyone following the Gabby Petito story?

Not to be a jerk but judging but what’s transpired (and what hasn’t) so far, his parents are the definition of everything that’s wrong with parenting these days.

Totally agree. There has to be so much more to this story we don’t know.

I’m not going to blame parenting “these days.” I have seen some really good Gen Zers with great heads on their shoulders. I think, in general, dysfunction breeds dysfunction no matter what generation we are in.

Armchair psychiatrist time.

There have been reports of Gabby’s friends saying how he was moody, he wouldn’t sleep, and he would hear voices. Laundrie is 22. This is the age schizophrenia presents.

While she might have said she has anxiety and OCD, we do not know if it is diagnosed. I mean I think we all use OCD in our vocab about certain things and it isn’t that we are really OCD. I really do feel she was in a highly emotional state during the recorded dispute. I don’t think she was “crazy.”

This was also just a snippet of them and one cannot tell if this is how things always were.

I will say this seems to be the worst breakup in history to be documented in real time.

My thoughts: I’m not sure if he killed her. But something definitely happened and I don’t think he knew what to do. It may be an accidental murder. No one can really tell until Gabby is recovered. But that f^ck#r should leave a damn note somewhere of what happened.

I read that Gabby’s friend said he was really jealous and possessive and also would have “episodes” where he would see things. I’m trying hard not to judge but the whole walking around barefoot stuff is out there.

Still think these kids do drugs. Who knows what happened when they were high.

They also have been gone from NY for 2 years so not sure if these are friends from high school or now.

So much more to this story.

I can see that. I feel like the younger hippies I know are into psychedelics, mind-altering things to achieve another level of consciousness. It’s a strange generation where some kids want to be anti capitalism and “free” but also are bankrolled by their parents too and monetize their social media. Not against anyone making money but it’s just ironic I guess.

Omg yes yes yes!!!!

I know this age very well and your top part is exactly right. That is why I say they die drugs as they are part of this hippy group.

Seeing things and hearing voices can also be due to a manic stage if he is bipolar and not sleeping. I feel like bipolar is much more common. I also think whatever happened wasn’t planned. Not sure It was an accident but I don’t think he set out to kill her.

But the FBI clearly knows much more than they are saying. They have access to all of the cell phone records and ez pass records. I am sure there are multiple videos of him driving home if he was home. Hopefully her family knows more information than what we know.

Not sure if she was being honest but in the body cam footage she said they don’t drink or do drugs.

I don’t think his parents are necessarily bad parents. If it was my child I would be doing whatever I could to help them no matter what they did. I would like to think I would do the right thing and encourage him to turn himself in but depending on the circumstances I might not. I really feel like this is one of those situations where you truly can’t presume how you would react until you are in it, no matter how well
You think you know yourself.

Another odd thing that has nothing to do with Brian I’m sure but apparently Gabby is the third person missing and still not found this summer in that same park. The other two are young men. Sad.

And yea.... where the hell did this kid flee to? Beyond bizarre.

I think I said it earlier on this thread but I was just there the first week of September and our guide told us people go missing there all the time because inexperienced campers and hikers underestimate the risks associated with parks like this.

How is it possible he left his house without anyone noticing? This story is all over the news.

She definitely seemed to be on something when she was with the cops. Drug are definitely involved in this situation.

Anyone following the Gabby Petito story?

How could the police not be staking out that house knowing he was inside. There is no way he would have slipped out. I don't think he was there at all. That is why he is not talking because he was never there.

My Criminal Minds watching brain thinks that he did not kill her. I think she went nuts one night and he left. He went back and she was not there so he thought she ran off and then he came home. When no one could get in touch with her, he took off knowing he would be a suspect and be blamed. There will definitely be a lifetime movie made out of this.

I agree! I said before…they went separate ways. When he came back, she was either attacked by an animal, jumped/fell, or got lost and he panicked.

If that happened, I would think after the shock wore off… I think he would tell somebody. It’s just abnormal behavior.

If you care about someone, you want to help. You organize a search party. You plead to the public for help.
You don’t do what he’s doing.

I think he was too deep into it.

I think they need to investigate the parents and see if they made any withdrawals. You don’t do what he and they are doing if you are innocent. I don’t think he premeditated to hurt her, but I do think he harmed her or left her. Also, isn’t the vehicle hers?

I didn’t hear that only they asked him if he was on meds and they muted it and then said so you are not on meds.

They are bad because it surely looks like they are helping him more than finding Gabby. Now he is “missing”? They waited 3 days to tell the cops AND the cops said they knew where he was the entire time?

He was in FL the 17th-23rd and she contacted her parents on the 25th so she was still alive then.
