so the parents "stumbled" across the (at least one of) personal items that were found; the father found the backpack. They are denying that he planted it. but how odd that he found it and not law enforcement. I'm sure forensics will tell the story eventually.

FBI: Laundrie admitted killing Gabby Petito in notebook
By MEAD GRUVER
Yesterday
FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — The boyfriend of slain cross-country traveler Gabby Petito admitted killing her in a notebook discovered near his body in a Florida swamp, the FBI announced Friday.
It was the first time authorities squarely pinned the blame for Petito’s death on Brian Laundrie, though he was the prime suspect all along.
Investigators meanwhile announced that Laundrie, 23, had sent text messages to intentionally deceive people that Petito, 22, was still alive after he beat and strangled her in late August, according to a statement released by the FBI in Denver.
“All logical investigative steps have been concluded in this case,” FBI Denver Division Special Agent in Charge Michael Schneider said in the statement. “The investigation did not identify any other individuals other than Brian Laundrie directly involved in the tragic death of Gabby Petito."
Petito's body was found Sept. 19 at a campground near Grand Teton National Park in northwestern Wyoming. A coroner determined she'd died about three weeks earlier of "blunt-force injuries to the head and neck, with manual strangulation.”

I wonder if he gave much detail as to what happened. Very sad.
I'm always fascinated that people like him can lead a relatively uneventful life, commit a serious crime, then keep living like nothing happened.
There are people like that. I knew of a guy in a former job...around 70 and some health problems. I didn't know him well but I had one phone conversation with him and he seemed like a nice enough guy. Later on he gets picked up for having (allegedly; he died before the courts played out) murdered his wife over ten years prior. To my knowledge, both before and after the murder he was pretty normal and no more of a threat than you or I. I just can't imagine going through life knowing I'd done something like that. Hell, I still feel guilty about the time I stole a hockey puck at the local rink when I was like 10.

I had a client whose father killed his mother and had absolutely no memory of it. It was some sort of prescription error related to his Parkinson's treatment. He was like 75 or 80 when it happened.
Father served time in prison and died there. He was devastated by it due to having no memory.

Petito family awarded 3 million from Police department. I don't agree with that one.
They are now suing the parents of Brian Laundrie for a wrongful death suit. Not sure how that works? You're going to sue the parents of the murderer? Anyone that dies can go after the parents of a killer/murderer? Geeze that's just stupid.

I don't remember police of being accused of any wrong doing, so I'm not sure what they were awarded that either. I could see the parents though, because didn't they help with some of the coverup and withheld information? They weren't very cooperative. I get it, who wants to help with the murder case against their son. Maybe not a wrongful death suit, because they weren't responsible for her death, but some other lawsuit for their actions that lead to this being drug out longer and all the unnecessary pain created.

The suit stated that the police should have identified a problem and provided safety to Gabby instead of turning her loose with Brian when they were pulled over.
It's a tough one. If you have two adults telling you everything is fine what do you do?

I just googled, and only see them getting $3m from Laundrie's estate.
I see another where they filed a suit 2 weeks ago against an officer from the Moab PD for $50M, but don't see anything about a $3M settlement from law enforcement.

AACK! I heard the news wrong. They were awarded 3million Wrongful death suit from the Laundries which I think is absolutely stupid.
Yes they filed for 50M against UTAH police for "wrongful death" also.
Either way I don't agree with either one of these and the parents getting sued held up? They wouldn't have wanted me on that jury.

EDIT: I went back to read this again and make sure I got everything now. It says there is ANOTHER suit filed against the family that says Laundrie’s parents wrongly concealed that he confessed to killing Petito before he returned home in September 2021 to Florida from their trip out West in a converted van.

I look at it the other way around... if the Laundries agreed to this, there's probably a lot more to it than we know.
Apparently since they have another lawsuit or the Laundries lawyer agreed to do it because they hide or file their money away or maybe they have no kids left and will donate their money to the lawsuit?
So yeah, I do have questions even more now. It is just like I said though, absurd.

Is it absurd if they indeed prevented Petito's parents from facing their daughter's killer & seeing him brought to justice?
Here's a thought: maybe don't help your son evade authorities when he's wanted in connection w/ the murder of his girlfriend.

It's your own kid. That's one way of looking at it. You do what you can to keep them safe but I don't know if it's like that considering they let him go off on a death march into the forest.

Its not surprising that they agreed. I'm sure there was a lot of thought and financial advice put into it. A high profile case like this that would probably go on for months would cost lots in defending (probably a lot less than 3 million though) But also the toll of a case like this going public, the news coverage, going through all the details publicly, etc. Probably would wind up losing their house anyway. So why not agree to 3 million, pay what portion you can and declare bankruptcy or whatever they need to do? I mean, OJ has paid almost nothing to the Goldmans, so they may not have any intention of paying.

They aren't suing the parents because he killed himself. They're suing the parents for allegedly concealing that he confessed to the murder.
It's in the AP article I linked:
"The lawsuit involving the estates of Petito and Laundrie, filed in May, claimed Laundrie was liable for damages because he caused her death. A separate lawsuit, still pending in Sarasota, claims Laundrie’s parents wrongly concealed that he confessed to killing Petito before he returned home in September 2021 to Florida from their trip out West in a converted van."
If they indeed concealed his confession, then they helped their son avoid facing the consequences of his actions. The reasons for the lawsuit seem pretty cut & dry to me. Whether there's any truth to the allegations, well.... we'll have to stay tuned I guess.

Here's a thought: maybe don't help your son evade authorities when he's wanted in connection w/ the murder of his girlfriend.
It's your own kid. That's one way of looking at it. You do what you can to keep them safe but I don't know if it's like that considering they let him go off on a death march into the forest.
I still don't see how Laundrie offing himself instead of facing a jury is worth money?
Is there any crime too heinous where the "it's your own kid" excuse gets thrown out the window?
& regarding your last point.... the two parties involved saw how it was worth money, and they agreed it was worth $3M. The Laundries chose that option over this lawsuit going to trial.
They let their own kid go out to die in the woods so they didn't protect him too well.
Yes they agreed to a sum, I don't get why. The second lawsuit doesn't make sense to me is where this is going. They want to sue the parents for him killing himself and not facing a trial? Yeah, I don't get why you want to keep on revisiting this wound?
They aren't suing the parents because he killed himself. They're suing the parents for allegedly concealing that he confessed to the murder.
It's in the AP article I linked:
"The lawsuit involving the estates of Petito and Laundrie, filed in May, claimed Laundrie was liable for damages because he caused her death. A separate lawsuit, still pending in Sarasota, claims Laundrie’s parents wrongly concealed that he confessed to killing Petito before he returned home in September 2021 to Florida from their trip out West in a converted van."
If they indeed concealed his confession, then they helped their son avoid facing the consequences of his actions. The reasons for the lawsuit seem pretty cut & dry to me. Whether there's any truth to the allegations, well.... we'll have to stay tuned I guess.
I'm wording it different. The family, if they concealed they knew, did let their son go out on his own terms and the Petito family is upset that they didn't get their justice. So, yes, they are suing because he killed himself pretty much.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — The boyfriend of slain cross-country traveler Gabby Petito admitted killing her in a notebook discovered near his body in a Florida swamp, the FBI announced Friday.
It was the first time authorities squarely pinned the blame for Petito’s death on Brian Laundrie, though he was the prime suspect all along.
Investigators meanwhile announced that Laundrie, 23, had sent text messages to intentionally deceive people that Petito, 22, was still alive after he beat and strangled her in late August, according to a statement released by the FBI in Denver.
“All logical investigative steps have been concluded in this case,” FBI Denver Division Special Agent in Charge Michael Schneider said in the statement. “The investigation did not identify any other individuals other than Brian Laundrie directly involved in the tragic death of Gabby Petito."
Petito's body was found Sept. 19 at a campground near Grand Teton National Park in northwestern Wyoming. A coroner determined she'd died about three weeks earlier of "blunt-force injuries to the head and neck, with manual strangulation.”

I had a client whose father killed his mother and had absolutely no memory of it. It was some sort of prescription error related to his Parkinson's treatment. He was like 75 or 80 when it happened.
Father served time in prison and died there. He was devastated by it due to having no memory.

They are now suing the parents of Brian Laundrie for a wrongful death suit. Not sure how that works? You're going to sue the parents of the murderer? Anyone that dies can go after the parents of a killer/murderer? Geeze that's just stupid.
I could see the parents though, because didn't they help with some of the coverup and withheld information? They weren't very cooperative. I get it, who wants to help with the murder case against their son. Maybe not a wrongful death suit, because they weren't responsible for her death, but some other lawsuit for their actions that lead to this being drug out longer and all the unnecessary pain created.
It's a tough one. If you have two adults telling you everything is fine what do you do?

I just googled, and only see them getting $3m from Laundrie's estate.
I see another where they filed a suit 2 weeks ago against an officer from the Moab PD for $50M, but don't see anything about a $3M settlement from law enforcement.
Yes they filed for 50M against UTAH police for "wrongful death" also.
Either way I don't agree with either one of these and the parents getting sued held up? They wouldn't have wanted me on that jury.
There wasn't a jury. The two families came to a settlement.

EDIT: I went back to read this again and make sure I got everything now. It says there is ANOTHER suit filed against the family that says Laundrie’s parents wrongly concealed that he confessed to killing Petito before he returned home in September 2021 to Florida from their trip out West in a converted van.

But also the toll of a case like this going public, the news coverage, going through all the details publicly, etc. Probably would wind up losing their house anyway. So why not agree to 3 million, pay what portion you can and declare bankruptcy or whatever they need to do? I mean, OJ has paid almost nothing to the Goldmans, so they may not have any intention of paying.
They aren't suing the parents because he killed himself. They're suing the parents for allegedly concealing that he confessed to the murder.
