Yeah, bummer about the young woman. I understand she was trying to be Instagrammable or whatever e-celebs do to make money. I dunno. A couple of young adults, probably short on cash, trying to live the van life, not understanding as the days go by it’s a churn and not as fun or easy as they might’ve thought. I saw the clip where they were detained in Utah, so it seems like they were definitely in a downward spiral.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

It's big out here, because as I understand it, Gabby Petito's family and Brian laundrie's family both are from blue point, long island, a tiny area, called a hamlet out here, pop. around 5,000 or so. The two grew up together. Laundrie's family now lives in Florida.

And that's probably one reason why this is considered a high profile case. The expanse of it's reach is astounding.

So coroner's report will come out soon. Hopefully identifying cause and manner of death. Tox report usually takes 6 weeks or more.

I don't disagree with your assessment. Couple of years ago my niece and her SO headed out on the same type of trip. Similar ages to this case. By the time they got here the converted short bus broke down south of us and they spent over a week here getting it resolved. Something something the altitude/freezing temps. The big guy here (genius mechanic) got it back on the road and then had to finally ditch the bus in a different state because some other problem, flew home. Then went back out again in a sedan with their gear. Enjoyed the rest of the trip. They were experienced primitive campers at the time and even when the bus broke down here, they were united in purpose so I think that made all the difference.

Dead or fled for sure. It looks like his parents gave him a running start.

Autopsy scheduled for Tuesday. Hopefully coroner will be able to determine cause and manner of death. Then toxicology report. People are popping off on youtube and elsewhere wondering why the fiancee' hasn't been charged.

1. Currently there is no evidence that a crime has been committed.

2. No one knows where he is.

So the family went to look for him in the reserve and found his car with a note, but left the car for him. Then they went back the next day and retrieved the car. Suicide note?

I don't know about the contents of the note. But yes, that's what the parents did. The FBI are executing a search warrant on the parent's home right now.
