♪ >>> WHEN YOU HEAR THE NAME GABBY PETITO, WHAT COMES TO MIND? >> A YOUNG ASPIRING BLOGGER WHO
LOVED LIFE AND ADVENTURES, HOW A GIRL WHO WAS ON THE CUSP OF BEGINNING A NEW LIFE AND WHOSE LIFE WAS TRAGICALLY TAKEN FROM
HER. >> THE FBI ANNOUNCING A MEDICAL EXAMINER SAYS THE BODY FOUND IN WYOMING WAS INDEED THAT OF GABBY
PETITO. >> BRIAN LAUNDRY I BELIEVE MADE THE DECISION TO KILL HIMSELF AFTER HE KILLED HER.
>> INVESTIGATORS SAY HUMAN REMAINS FOUND IN FLORIDA THIS WEEK ARE THOSE OF BRIAN LAUNDRY, THE ONLY PERSON OF INTEREST IN
THE DEATH OF HIS FIANCE. >> GABBY PETITO HAS BEEN GONE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. IS THIS CASE OVER?
>> NO, THIS CASE IS FAR FROM OVER. MY NAME IS MARY, AND I'M A FORMER FEDERAL PROSECUTOR AND
DEFENSE ATTORNEY. THERE ARE STILL A LOT OF QUESTIONS FOR GABBY'S PARENTS, THE PRIMARY BEING WOULD SHE
STILL BE ALIVE TODAY IF THE CASE HAS BEEN HANDLED DIFFERENTLY? >> HELLO AND GOOD MORNING. >> WE CAME TO KNOW THEM BECAUSE
THEY WERE PUTTING THEMSELVES OUT THERE IN SOCIAL MEDIA, DOCUMENTS THEIR TRAVELS THROUGHOUT AMERICA, THIS YOUNG COUPLE IN
LOVE, LIVING OUT OF THEIR VAN, SEEING WHAT THE WORLD HAD TO OFFER, LIVING THE DREAM. MY NAME IS DR. CHRIS MOHANDY,
AND I'M A FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGIST. BUT WHAT WE'VE COME TO LEARN IS THAT THAT WAS A VANIRE. >> IT WAS A RIVER OF CHOCOLATE.
>> AS MUCH AS I KNOW GABBY AND FEEL LIKE I KNOW BRIAN, YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHEN IT COMES TO RELATIONSHIPS.
>> WE HAVE BEEN LUCKY SO FAR IN ALL THE PLACES WE'VE STAYED, BUT I WOULD SAY THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SO FAR.
>> ANYONE THAT'S MET THE TWO OF THEM HAS BEEN LIKE, THEY SEEM LIKE SUCH A NICE COUPLE. BUT A LOT OF COUPLES LOOK NICE
ON INSTAGRAM. >> ABOUT A MONTH INTO THEIR TRIP, GABBY AND BRIAN HAVE A LOT OF ARGUMENTS.
IT GETS PHYSICAL. A WITNESS REPORTS IT TO THE MOAB POLICE. >> HEY, HOW ARE YOU?
>> GOOD. >> I'M WITH MOAB POLICE. >> THEY RESPOND, AND NOW WE SEE THAT THERE'S TROUBLE IN
PARADISE. >> HE TOLD ME TO GO TAKE A BREATHER, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE A BREATHER.
>> I'M FINE AND I LOVE GABBY. TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT ME. I'M JUST -- I FEEL BADLY IT HAD TO THE GET SO PUBLIC.
>> WHEN YOU LOOK BACK, COULD THAT MOAB POLICE STOP BEEN A GAME CHANGER? >> OH, ABSOLUTELY.
IT'S HARD NOT TO WONDER WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO GABBY IF EITHER GABBY OR BRIAN HAD BEEN ARRESTED THAT DAY.
>> TWO PEOPLE WENT ON A TRIP, ONE PERSON RETURNED, AND THAT PERSON THAT RETURNED ISN'T PROVIDING US ANY INFORMATION.
>> WHERE IS GABBY? >> WE BELIEVE THE CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE DEMONSTRATES THAT THE LAUNDRY FAMILY WAS AWARE THAT
THEIR SON HAD MURDERED GABBY AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THE LOCATION OF HER REMAINS. >> THEY REFUSED TO COMMUNICATE
TO THE PETITO FAMILY. AS HUMAN BEINGS, HOW COULD SOMEBODY NOT PICK UP THAT PHONE AND SAY, I'M SO SORRY.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, HOW CAN WE HELP, AND THE ONLY REASON YOU WOULDN'T IS IF SOMETHING WENT FOUL.
>> GABBY IS THE MOST AMAZING PERSON I'VE EVER MET. >> I'VE NEVER FELT A PAIN LIKE THIS.
I HAVE SCREAMED INTO THE AIR, WHAT HAPPENED, BECAUSE I WANT ANSWERS. WE WILL GET JUSTICE FOR HER NO
MATTER WHAT.
>>> GABBY PETITO'S ROAD TRIP IN THE SUMMER OF 2021 STARTED AS AN ADVENTURE STORY. MONTHS LATER, IT TURNED INTO THE
NATIONWIDE SEARCH FOR A MISSING WOMAN. BEFORE ENDING HERE. >> EARLIER TODAY, HUMAN REMAINS
WERE DISCOVERED. >> WITH THE DISCOVERY OF HER REMAINS AND GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK.
IT HAS NOW BECOME A CAUTIONARY TALE. >> ULTIMATELY, HER DEATH WILL HOPEFULLY LEAD TO MANY WOMEN
BEING RESCUED AND SAVED FROM THESE SITUATIONS WELL BEFORE IT GETS TOO ENGAGED FROM THESE SITUATIONS.
>> CBS CONSULTANT MARY FULGINI TIRKS I SAYS GABBY'S STORY IS ABOUT RECOGNIZING THE SIGNS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
>> THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE HER STORY DIDN'T HAVE TO END THE WAY IT DID. IF ONLY THE WARNING SCIENCE HAD
BEEN PICKED UP ON, WOULD IT HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT? >> TO MOST EYES, GABBY PETITO AND HER FIANCE BRIAN LAUNDRY
WERE COMPATIBLE IN EVERY WAY. >> GABBY PETITO NEVER GOES OUTSIDE. >> COOLEST CHICK YOU EVER MET,
MAN, BY FAR. SHE'S GOING THE MAKE YOU SMILE. >> GABBY'S DAD, JOSEPH. >> COOLEST CHICK YOU EVER MET,
SIMPLE AT THAT. >> 22 YEARS OLD, A NEW YORK GIRL FROM LONG ISLAND, AN APPETITE FOR ADVENTURE.
>> SHE KNEW SHE WANTED TO TAKE THIS TRIP. >> HER MOM, NICOLE SCHMIDT. >> SHE HAD TOLD ME ABOUT IT
PROBABLY A YEAR BEFORE IT STARTED. >> I'M STRETCHING, DOING SOME MORNING YOGA.
>> BRIAN'S VERY CCHARACTER MATT. ROSE DAVIS, THEY MET SOON AFTER GABBY MOVED TO FLORIDA. >> SHE TEXTED ME ONE OF THE
SWEETEST MESSAGING I'VE EVER GOTTEN FROM ANYONE. IT WAS LIKE, YOU SEEM SO COOL. I REALLY WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND.
I WAS JUST, ABSOLUTELY. >> THEY MADE TIKTOK VIDEOS TOGETHER FOR FUN. ROSE SAYS GABBY WAS GOOD FRIENDS
WITH BRIAN BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL IN NEW YORK. THEN AFTER BRIAN MOVED TO FLORIDA, GABBY MOVED THERE TOO
TO BE CLOSER TO HIM. >> I ALWAYS TOLD HER HER LIFE WAS KIND OF LIKE A MOVIE BECAUSE I WAS JUST LIKE, THIS HAPPENS IN
MOVIES. >> SOON, THEY WERE IN LOVE AND LIVING TOGETHER. >> SHE WOULD LET ME KNOW WHAT
THEY DID, AND HE WOULD MAKE HER BREAKFAST, AND IT WAS ALWAYS SUCH A CUTE LITTLE THING AND THEY DID CUTE LITTLE DINNERS.
>> IN JULY OF 2020, THEY GOT ENGAGED. THEY EVEN GOTTA TOOS TOGETHER. BUT ROSE SAID BRIAN COULD
SOMETIMES EXHIBIT WHAT SHE CALLS TOXIC TRAITS. WE SPOKE TO ROSE WHEN GABBY WAS FIRST REPORTED MISSING.
>> WHEN BRIAN WANTS SOMETHING, HE'S GOING TO GET IT. I DON'T MEAN IN A PHYSICAL WAY HE'S GOING TO FORCE IT.
HE'S -- I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO SAY I'M CALLING HIM A MANIPULATOR, BUT HE'LL MANIPULATE THE SITUATION TO GET
WHAT HE WANTS OUT OF IT. HE DIDN'T WANT HER TO GO OUT ONE NIGHT WITH ME, AND HE STOLE HER ID BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET IN THE
BAR WITHOUT YOUR ID. THIS WAS REALLY UPSETTING TO HER. YOU'RE ENGAGED.
IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT. >> BUT THE COUPLE SEEMED TO PUT ANY DRAMA BEHIND THEM AS THEY
GOT READY FOR THEIR ADVENTURE. GABBY WORKED HARD AT TACO BELL, AND WITH BRIAN AT PUBLIX SUPERMARKET SAVING MONEY FOR
THEIR TRIP. >> THEY BOUGHT THE VAN AND CONVERTED IT. >> THE GOAL WAS TO SPEND FOUR OR
FIVE MONTHS CHRIS CROSSING THE COUNTRY, HAVING ADVENTURES, EVEN WORKING ON ORGANIC FARMS AND CHRONICLING IT ALL IN REAL TIME
ON SOCIAL MEDIA. >> SHE'S LIKE, I WANT TO DOCUMENT THIS. THIS IS SO COOL TO BE DOING.
KIND OF LIKE A BELONGER, LET EVERYONE KNOW WHAT SHE WAS UP TO. SHE WAS EXCITED STARTING HER VAN
LIFE, DIGITAL JOURNEY WHERE SHE'S CREATING THIS WHOLE FOLLOWING OF VAN LIFERS, AND THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS REALLY INTO
T THE MOMENT. >> THEY ROLLED OUT OFFICIALLY ON JULY 2nd. GABBY POSTED CONSTANTLY.
>> HELLO, HELLO, AND GOOD MORNING. >> EVERY LITTLE DETAIL. >> YOU CAN'T KEEP CHOCOLATE IN
UTAH. NOT IN JULY. BUT BUT.
>> BUT ALL THOSE SELFIES MAY HAVE BEEN HIDING A DARKER STORY. >> THERE'S THINGS BEHIND THE SCENES YOU DON'T KNOW.
>> SIX WEEKS INTO THEIR TRIP ON THE AFTERNOON OF AUGUST 12 IN UTAH NEAR THE NATIONAL PARK, GABBY AND BRIAN'S INSTAGRAM ROAD
TRIP CAME TO A SHUTTERING STOP. >> DRIVER IS SHOWING SOME OBSCURED DRIVING, POSSIBLY INTOXICATED.
>> IT WAS AROUND 4:45 IN THE AFTERNOON ACCORDING TO THIS POLICE OFFICER'S BODY CAM. >> CURRENTLY DOING 45 MILES AN
HOUR. ZONE THROUGH HERE IS 25. OH! SUBJECT JUST HIT THE CURB.
CORRECTION, SPEED LIMIT IS 15. >> WHAT'S YOU GUYS' NAMES? >> GABBY. >> BRIAN.
>> IT WAS THE STOP THAT COULD HAVE CHANGED EVERYTHING.
♪ >>> GRAND COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE. >> THIS 911 CALL WAS MADE ON
AUGUST 122021 IN MOAB, UTAH FOUR WEEKS BEFORE GABBY PETITO WAS REPORTED MISSING. THE CALLER REPORTS SEEING WHAT
APPEARED TO BE AN ALARMING CONVERSATION BETWEEN CABBY AND -- >> WHAT WERE THEY DOING?
>> WE DROVE BY AND THE GENTLEMAN WAS SLAPPING THE GIRL. >> HE WAS SLAPPING HER? >> YES, AND WE STOPPED, THEY RAN
UP AND DOWN THE SIDEWALK, HE PROCEEDED TO HIT HER, POPPED IN THE CAR AND DROVE OFF. >> OFFICERS FROM THE MOAB POLICE
DEPARTMENT ARE DISPATCHED, AND WITHIN MINUTES, GABBY AND BRIAN'S WHITE VAN IS SPOTTED DRIVING ERRATICALLY.
THEY'RE PULLED OVER, THE OFFICERS SEPARATE THE COUPLE AND BEGIN QUESTIONING THEM. >> WHY DON'T YOU COME OVER HERE?
>> GABBY IS VISIBLY SHAKEN. >> TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON. >> YEAH. I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S JUST SOME DAYS I FEEL LIKE I WOULD -- >> OKAY. >> I WAS JUST CLEANING AND
STRAIGHTENING UP THE BACK OF THE VAN BEFORE AND APOLOGIZING TO HIM SAYING, I'M SORRY I'M SO MEAN.
AND I'M TRYING TO START A VLOG. I HAVE BEEN BUILDING MY WEBSITES. I HAVE BEEN REALLY STRESSED.
HE DIDN'T BELIEVE I COULD DO ANY OF IT, SO THAT'S KIND OF BEEN LIKE A -- I DON'T KNOW WE HAVE BEEN FIGHTING ALL MORNING, AND
HE WOULDN'T LET ME IN THE CAR BEFORE. >> WHY WOULDN'T HE LET YOU IN THE CAR?
BECAUSE YOU'RE OCD? >> HE TOLD ME I NEEDED TO CALM DOWN. >> TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON.
>> SHE GETS WORKED UP SOMETIMES, SO I TRY TO DISTANCE MYSELF FROM HER, SO I LOCKED THE CAR. >> BRIAN TELLS POLICE THAT GABBY
ATTACKED HIM, SCRATCHING HIS FACE AND ARM AS SHE TRIED TO GET BACK INTO THE VAN. >> I WAS JUST TRYING TO -- I
KNOW I SHOULDN'T PUSH, BUT I WAS TRYING TO PUSH AWAY SAYING, LET'S TAKE A MINUTE, STEP BACK AND BREATHE.
>> PEOPLE THAT CAME TO US AND TOLD US THEY SAW HIM HIT YOU. >> ANOTHER OFFICER ASKS GABBY FOR MORE DETAILS ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED. >> TO BE HONEST, I DEFINITELY HIT HIM FIRST. >> WHERE DID YOU HIT HIM?
>> I SLAPPED HIM FIRST. >> ON THE FACE? HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU SLAP HIM? >> JUST A COUPLE.
>> AND HIS REACTION WAS TO DO WHAT? HE JUST GRABBED YOU? >> YEAH.
>> DID HE HIT YOU, THOUGH? WE WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH IF HE ACTUALLY HIT YOU. >> I GUESS, YEAH, BUT I HIT HIM
FIRST. >> WHERE DID HE HIT YOU? DON'T WORRY. JUST BE HONEST.
>> HE GRABBED MY FACE LIKE I GUESS -- HE DIDN'T LIKE HIT ME IN THE FACE. HE DIDN'T LIKE PUNCH ME IN THE
FACE OR ANYTHING. >> DID HE SLAP YOUR FACE OR WHAT? >> HE GRABBED ME WITH HIS NAIL,
I WAS CUT RIGHT HERE BECAUSE I COULD FEEL IT. IF I TOUCH IT, IT BURNS. >> THE OFFICERS NEVER DIRECTLY
ASKED BRIAN IF HE SLAPPED OR HIT GABBY. THEY ALSO DIDN'T TALK TO THE 911 CALLER WHO REPORTED SEEING BRIAN
HIT GABBY. BUT ONE OF THE OFFICERS DID SPEAK WITH A SECOND EYEWITNESS THAT DAY.
>> THE WITNESS SAYS I NEVER SAW HIM HIT HER. I SAW HIM SHOVE HER, BUT I COULDN'T TELL IF IT WAS AN
AGGRESSION AGAINST HER OR A DEFENSE AGAINST HER. SO AT THIS POINT, UNLESS THE GUY IS SCREAMING THAT HE DID
SOMETHING TO THIS GIRL, IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE IS THE PRIMARY AGGRESSOR. >> YEAH.
>> IN UTAH, THE OFFICERS FIND EVIDENCE OF A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ASSAULT, THEY ARE REQUIRED TO MAKE AN ARREST OR ISSUE A
CITATION. AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION WOULD LATER CONCLUDE THAT THE OFFICERS DID NOT HAVE A CLEAR
UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW. >> GABBY, THIS IS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. HOW YOU ANSWER THIS QUESTION IS
GOING TO DETERMINE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. BUT THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN ANSWER THIS QUESTION IS YOU.
>> THEY MISTAKINGLY BELIEVE THAT GABBY HAD TO INTEND TO HARM BRIAN TO REQUIRE AN ARREST. >> WHEN YOU SLAPPED HIM THOSE
TIMES, WERE YOU ATTEMPTING TO CAUSE HIM PHYSICAL PAIN OR PHYSICAL IMPAIRMENT? IS THAT WHAT YOU WERE ATTEMPTING
TO DO TO HIM? >> NO. >> WHAT WERE YOU ATTEMPTING TO DO?
WHAT WAS THE REASON BEHIND THE SLAPPING AND STUFF? WHAT WAS IT YOU WERE ATTEMPTING TO ACCOMPLISH BY SLAPPING HIM?
>> I WAS TRYING TO GET HIM TO STOP TELLING ME TO CALM DOWN. >> DOESN'T SOUND TO ME LIKE SHE AEMTED TO INJURE HIM.
>> ULTIMATELY, OFFICERS DECIDED TO SEPARATE THE COUPLE FOR THE NIGHT. GABBY WAS TOLD TO STAY WITH THE
VAN. >> I'M GIVING HIM A RIDE OVER TO THE HOTEL. >> AS THE ASSUMED VICTIM, BRIAN
WAS SENT TO THE HOTEL. >> I REALLY APPRECIATE IT SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING. >> NO PROBLEM.
NICE TO MEET YOU. >> NO ONE WAS ARRESTED OR ISSUED A CITATION. FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGIST CHRIS
MOHANDY HAS WORKED CLOSELY WITH LAW ENFORCE OMT ON INSTANCES OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. >> THE OFFICERS WHO WORKED WITH
GABBY AND BRIAN WERE COMPASSIONATE. THEY WERE TRYING TO DO WHAT THEY MISTAKENLY BELIEVED WAS THE
RIGHT THING BY CUTTING THEM A BREAK. >> WEEKS LATER, WHEN THE BODY CAM FOOTAGE WAS RELEASED, THERE
WAS A PUBLIC UPROAR. >> NEWLY RELEASED VIDEO SHOWS WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE AFTERMATH OF AN ARGUMENT.
>> FOR ROSE, THOSE IMAGES WERE HARD FOR HER TO WATCH. >> IT TAKES A LOT FOR HER TO GET THAT HYSTERICAL.
AND SO WHEN I SAW THE BODY CAM, I KNEW IT WAS MORE THAN JUST A LITTLE ARGUMENT. SHE'S NOT GOING TO SLAP HIM FOR
NO REASON. >> THE RELEASE OF THE 911 CALL DREW OUTRAGE. >> HE WAS SLAPPING HER.
>> FOLLOWERS OF THE STORY ON SOCIAL MEDIA ERUPTED IN ANGER. MY BLOOD IS BOILING AT HOW THEY FAILED THIS POOR GIRL.
ALL I KNOW IS THIS DIDN'T HAVE TO END LIKE THIS. POLICE MISSED AN OPPORTUNITY. MOHANDY SAYS THE OFFICERS SEEMED
TO MISS SIGNS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE. AND GABBY ACCEPTING THE BLAME. >> I WAS APOLOGIZING TO HIM AND SAYING I'M SORRY THAT I'M SO
MEAN. >> IN A DOMESTICALLY VIOLENT RELATIONSHIP, IT'S NOT UNCOMMON FOR ONE PARTY TO TAKE THE BLAME
FOR WHAT REALLY IS THE BEHAVIOR OF THE OTHER PARTY. >> THE INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATOR LATER WROTE THAT IT'S VERY
LIKELY THAT GABBY WAS A LONG-TERM VICTIM OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THE
OFFICERS' ACTIONS DURING THAT STOP WOULD PLAY OUT IN THE DAYS AHEAD. AND MONTHS LATER, WOULD BE
QUESTIONED BY GABBY'S PARENTS AND THEIR LAWYERS. JUST DAYS AFTER THAT TRAFFIC STOP, GABBY AND BRIAN WERE BACK
ON THE ROAD, HEADED NORTH TO SALT LAKE CITY. >> IT RAINED ALL AFTERNOON YESTERDAY.
>> ON AUGUST 19th, GABBY POSTED AN EDITED EIGHT MINUTE VIDEO SHOWING THEIR JOURNEY TOGETHER. >> IT IS REALLY NICE AND SUNNY
TODAY. >> THE VIDEO SHOWED NO SIGNS OF ANY TENSION BETWEEN GABBY AND BRIAN.
LATER, GABBY TOLD HER MOM THEY WERE LEAVING UTAH AND DRIVING TO GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK IN WYOMING.
>> SHE WAS HAPPY. SHE WAS EXCITED TO KEEP GOING ON HER JOURNEY, AND THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I SPOKE TO HER
VERBALLY. >> ON AUGUST 25th, GABBY POSTED A SERIES OF PHOTOS ON INSTAGRAM IN FRONT OF A BUTTERFLY MURAL IN
AUGDON, UTAH. IT WOULD BE HER FINAL POST ON INSTAGRAM.
>>> GABBY PETITO NEVER GOES OUTSIDE. >> THE INSTAGRAM POST ON AUGUST 25, 2021 WAS THE LAST TIME GABBY
PETITO WOULD PUBLISH ON SOCIAL MEDIA. SHORTLY AFTER, SHE SAID SHE AND BRIAN WERE HEADED TO GRAND TETON
NATIONAL PARK, HER PARENTS QUIT HEARING FROM HER. >> SHE SEEMED TO BE IN COMMUNICATION ON A REGULAR BASIS
WITH HER PARENTS. THEY WERE CHECKING IN ON HER REGULARLY. >> THEN ON AUGUST 27, 2021, HER
MOTHER SAYS SHE RECEIVED A STRANGE TEXT MESSAGE FROM GABBY'S PHONE. IT READ, CAN YOU HELP STAN?
I JUST KEEP GETTING HIS VOICE MAILS AND MISSED CALLS. STAN IS GABBY'S GRANDFATHER. >> THE MOTHER THOUGHT IT WAS ODD
BECAUSE SHE NEVER REFERRED TO HER GRANDFATHER AS STAN. >> IT WAS OUT OF CHARACTER AND DISCONCERNING BUT AS FAR AS THE
PETITO FAMILY KNEW, GABBY AND BRIAN WERE STILL TOGETHER ON THEIR TRIP. >> MY NAME IS MIRANDA BAKER AND
ON AUGUST 29, MY BOYFRIEND AND I PICKED UP BRIAN AT GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK AT 5:30 AT NIGHT. >> 48 HOURS AFTER GABBY'S MOTHER
RECEIVED THAT CRYPTIC TEXT, MIRANDA BAKER SAYS SHE AND HER BOYFRIEND PICKED UP A MAN SHE BELIEVES WAS BRIAN LAUNDRY.
SHE SAYS HE WAS ALONE. >> HE APPROACHED US ASKING US FOR A RIDE BECAUSE HE NEEDED TO GO TO JACKSON.
BEFORE HE CAME IN THE CAR, HE OFFERED TO PAY US LIKE $200 TO GIVE HIM A RIDE LIKE TEN MILES, SO THAT WAS KIND OF WEIRD.
HE THEN TOLD US HE HAS BEEN CAMPING FOR MULTIPLE DAYS WITHOUT HIS FIANCE AND SHE WAS WORKING ON THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA
PAGE BACK AT THEIR VAN. >> SUDDENLY, THINGS TOOK A TURN. >> HE FREAKED OUT. HE WAS LIKE, NOPE, I NEED TO GET
OUT RIGHT NOW. PULL OVER. WE DROPPED HIM OFF AT 6:09 P.M. ON AUGUST 29.
>> MEANWHILE, GABBY'S MOTHER NICOLE DID RECEIVE ONE MORE TEXT FROM GABBY'S PHONE SAYING THERE WAS NO SERVICE IN I DYOSEMITI.
>> ARE YOU CONFIDENT THAT WAS FROM HER OR YOU'RE NOT SURE? >> I CAN'T COMMENT ON THAT. >> DURING GABBY'S TRAVELS, SHE
HAD BEEN STAYING IN TOUCH WITH HER FRIEND ROSE DAVIS. ROSE WAS EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM GABBY ON HER BIRTHDAY.
>> SO WE TALKED, AND MY BIRTHDAY IS AUGUST 29, SO WE DECIDED, CALL ME THEN. >> BUT NO BIRTHDAY CALL OR TEXT
CAME. >> I HONESTLY DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT WHEN SHE DIDN'T TEXT ME OR ANYTHING BECAUSE
SHE'S TRAVELING CROSS COUNTRY AND ONCE IT GOT -- IT GOT LATER INTO IT AROUND LIKE 8th AND 9th OF SEPTEMBER, THAT WAS THE POINT
WHERE I WAS LIKE, SHE WOULD HAVE CALLED ME. WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD FROM HER YET.
>> WHAT ROSE DID NOT KNOW WAS THAT ON SEPTEMBER 1st, BRIAN LAUNDRY WAS BACK IN NORTH PORT, FLORIDA.
HE HAD DRIVEN THE VAN THERE, AND HE WAS ALONE. THE PETITO FAMILY KNEW NONE OF THIS, BUT THEY HAD ALREADY
BECOME ALARMED WHEN THEY STOPPED HEARING FROM GABBY ALL TOGETHER, AND HER CELL PHONE HAD STOPPED WORKING.
DID YOU EVER REACH OUT TO HER BOYFRIEND TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED AND WHERE YOUR DAUGHTER IS?
>> WE CAN'T COMMENT ON THAT. >> WE'RE NOT COMMENTING ON THAT. >> BUT GABBY'S MOTHER DID REACH OUT TO POLICE.
>> IT WAS ACTUALLY FRIDAY THE 10th THAT I DECIDED TO CALL POLICE. BECAUSE I HAD HAD TEN DAYS --
TEN, ALMOST 11 DAYS WAS ENOUGH FOR ME TO NOT HEAR FROM MY CHILD, AND I GOT THE RUN AROUND. NOBODY WANTED TO REPORT HER
MISSING. SHE'S AN ADULT. SHE'S TRAVELING. AS A MOTHER, I SAID, IT'S NOT
LIKE HER. FINALLY, THAT SATURDAY, I WENT PERSONALLY TO THE 5th PRECINCT, AND NOW THIS IS WHERE WE ARE.
>> GABBY PETITO WAS FUSHLLY DECLARED A MISSING PERSON ON SEPTEMBER 11, JUST OVER TWO WEEKS AFTER HER LAST INSTAGRAM
POST. AS THE NATION REMEMBERED SO MANY LIVES LOST 20 YEARS EARLIER, THE PETITO FAMILY FOCUSED ON ONE
LIFE, THAT OF THEIR MISSING DAUGHTER. >> WE'RE LOOKING FOR HER AND ONLY HER, NOT THE VAN, NOT THE
TWO OF THEM, JUST HER. KEEP YOUR EYES OUT AND WE'LL FIND HER. >> A WOMAN DISAPPEARS ON A CROSS
COUNTRY TRIP WITH HER BOYFRIEND IN A VAN. >> ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2021, THE STORY OF GABBY
PETITO'S DISAPPEARANCE HIT THE NEWS. >> THE PARENTS OF A MISSING WOMAN FROM LONG ISLAND NEED HELP
FINDING HER. >> GABBY'S MOM AND STEP DAD, NICOLE AND JIM SCHMIDT HELD UP HER PHOTO FOR REPORTERS.
>> GABBY IS 22 YEARS OLD. SHE'S AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL SOUL INSIDE AND OUT. >> ROSE DAVIS WAS DEVASTATED TO
SEE HER FRIEND'S PICTURE ON TV. >> MY MOM CALLED ME INTO HER ROOM AND GABBY'S FACE WAS ALL OVER THE NEWS, AND I KIND OF
JUST WENT INTO SHOCK. >> WHAT HAPPENED TO GABBY PETITO? >>> ONCE IT BECAME CLEAR THAT
GABBY PETITO HAD GONE MISSING, HER MOM AND STEP DAD, HER FATHER, JOE PETITO AND STEP MOM TARA SET UP A FIND GABBY PAGE
WHERE PEOPLE COULD POST TIPS AND INFORMATION. SHE WAS REPORTEDLY LAST SEEN NEAR GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK
IN WYOMING AROUND AUGUST 27, 2021. >> WE WANT HER HOME. >> HOME SAFE AND SOUND.
>> I IMMEDIATELY, IMMEDIATELY MADE LIKE A COLLAGE OF ALL HER PHOTOS FOR TIKTOK AND POSTED THE INFORMATION, FACEBOOK,
INSTAGRAM, EVERYTHING. >> WITHIN DAYS, VIDEOS ABOUT GABBY'S DISAPPEARANCE EXPLODED ACROSS SOCIAL MEDIA.
EVEN PEOPLE WITH NO CONNECTION TO GABBY JOINED IN THE SEARCH TO HELP FIND HER. >> WE ARE GOING TO BE GOING TO
THE GRAND TETON TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO HELP. >> SOCIAL MEDIA HAS BEEN
AMAZING. WE NEED FOR HER TO COME BACK HOME, AND ANYTHING YOU GUYS CAN DO TO HELP US GET THERE IS
APPRECIATED, AND WE GOT TO KEEP DOING IT. >> FOR GABBY'S PARENTS, THIS SPOTLIGHT IN THE MEDIA AND
ONLINE WAS INVALUABLE. BUT AS FORMER FEDERAL PROSECUTOR MARY POINTS OUT, NOT ALL MISSING PERSONS CASES RECEIVE THIS LEVEL
OF ATTENTION. WHAT WAS IT ABOUT GABBY PETITO'S STORY THAT RESONATED WITH SO MANY PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD?
>> THERE SEEMS TO BE A TENDENCY IN THESE KINDS OF CASES TO GIVE A DISPROPORTIONATE AMOUNT OF ATTENTION TO THIS TYPE OF GIRL.
>> THIS FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGIST. >> THIS CASE, YOU KNOW, IS A BIT OF A COMMENTARY ON WHO GETS NEWS ATTENTION, TRACTION IN SOCIAL
MEDIA. THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THESE SITUATIONS EVERY SINGLE DAY THAT DON'T FIT THAT DESCRIPTION.
NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNITIES, YOU KNOW, GAY COMMUNITIES, ARE THEY BEING TREATED DIFFERENTLY? ARE THEY BEING IGNORED?
>> WHETHER IT'S NEWS WORTHY OR NOT SHOULDN'T BE TICK TATED BY THE COLOR OF SOMEBODY'S SKIN BECAUSE IF THESE STORIES RISE TO
A LEVEL OF NOTORIETY, THEY CAN HELP SOLVE THE MYSTERY BEHIND SOME OF THEM. >> BUT THERE WAS ONE PERSON WHO
WASN'T HELPING SOLVE THE MYSTERY OF WHAT HAPPENED TO GABBY, BRIAN LAUNDRY. NORTH PORT, FLORIDA POLICE SPOKE
PERSON JOSH TAYLOR SAID INVESTIGATORS WERE FRUSTRATED. NEITHER HE NOR HIS PARENTS WOULD ANSWER THEIR QUESTIONS, EVEN
THOUGH GABBY HAD LIVED WITH THEM. >> WE WERE ESSENTIALLY HANDED THE INFORMATION FOR THEIR
ATTORNEY. THAT IS THE EXTENT OF OUR CONVERSATION WITH THEM. >> THE FIRST WORD THAT POPPED IN
MY BRAIN WAS COWARD TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO LOVE HER. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO MARRY HER,
WHERE IS SHE? >> POLICE CON IFISCATED THE VAN AND THEN RELEASED IT. LAUNDRIE FAMILY ATTORNEY SPOKE
BRIEFLY TO THE PRESS. >> ON BEHALF OF THE LAUNDRIE FAMILY, I HOPE MS. PETITO IS LOCATED AND REUNITED WITH HIS
FAMILY. >> GABBY'S FAMILY RESPONDED WITH A SCATHING LETTER. >> WE BELIEVE YOU KNOW THE
LOCATION OF WHERE BRIAN LEFT GABBY. WE BEG YOU TO TELL US. AS A PARENT, HOW COULD YOU LET
US GO THROUGH THIS PAIN AND NOT HELP US? >> SIX DAYS AFTER GABBY WAS DECLARED MISSING, THE LAUNDRIE
FAMILY REPORTED THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHERE BRIAN WAS. THEY SAY HE LEFT FOR A HIKE AT THE CARLTON RESERVE DAYS
EARLIER. POLICE IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO COMB THE HUGE LOCAL PARK LOOKING FOR BRIAN.
>> A MASSIVE SEARCH, MORE THAN 50 OFFICERS AND FBI AGENTS COMBING A 20,000 ACRE PARK LOOKING FOR BRIAN LAUNDRIE.
>> ANGER AT THE FAMILY'S SILENCE PROMPTED PROTESTORS TO GATHER OUTSIDE THE LAUNDRIE HOME DEMANDING ANSWERS.
>> WHERE'S GABBY? >> WHILE AUTHORITIES WERE SEARCHING FOR BRIAN IN FLORIDA, THE SEARCH FOR GABBY IN AND
AROUND WYOMING INTENSIFIED. >> IT WAS A NATIONWIDE HUNT TOO BETWEEN SOCIAL MEDIA AND ALL THE OTHER AVENUES.
PEOPLE WERE LOOKING FOR THE VAN, WHERE IT WENT, WHEN IT WENT, THEY WERE LOOKING FOR GABBY PETITO.
>> AND IN THIS CASE, ALL OF THAT SOCIAL MEDIA ATTENTION ULTIMATELY HELPED INVESTIGATORS LOCATE GABBY.
WHEN KYLE AND JEN BETHUNE CAME FORWARD WITH INFORMATION, THEY HAD SPOTTED GABBY AND BRIAN'S VAN.
THEY HAD BEEN IN WYOMING'S GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK AROUND THE TIME GABBY'S FAMILY LAST HEARD FROM HER.
THEY HAD THEIR GO PROS ROLLING FOR THEIR YOUTUBE CHANNEL WHEN THEY WENT LOOKING FOR A CAMPGROUND.
>> WE'RE DRIVING DOWN THIS ROAD, PASSED THIS VAN, AND IT HAD FLORIDA PLATES. THE VAN WAS COMPLETELY DARK.
WE ASSUMED THEY WERE OUT HIKING OR DOING SOMETHING ELSE. >> WAS THE BETHUNES LEFT THE PARK, THEY DIDN'T THINK ABOUT
THE VAN AGAIN UNTIL LATE ON SATURDAY THE 18th WHEN JEN CHECKED HER PHONE AND WAS STUNNED TO LEARN AUTHORITIES NOW
BELIEVED GABBY HAD BEEN IN THE TETONS THE SAME NIGHT. >> AND I IMMEDIATELY GOT GOOSE BUMPS ALL OVER MY BODY.
I RUSHED BACK TO THE COMPUTER AND SAW THAT WHITE SPECK OF VAN, AND I WAS LIKE, PLEASE KEEP GOING, PLEASE KEEP GOING, AND IT
DID, AND IT GOT BIGGER AND BIGGER. >> WE JUST SOME REASON INSTANTLY KNEW THAT IT WAS HERS.
>> WHEN I CALLED THE FBI, I WAS LIKE I HAVE FOUND GABBY'S FOOTAGE, PATCH ME ACROSS TO SOMEBODY.
I KNEW HOW IMPORTANT THIS FOOTAGE WOULD BE TO FINDING GABBY. >> AS INSTRUCTED, THE BETHUNES
UPLOADED THEIR FOOTAGE TO THE FBI'S WEBSITE. THEY ALSO PUT IT ON YOUTUBE AND FACEBOOK.
JUST HOURS LATER CAME THE DEVASTATING ANNOUNCEMENT. >> EARLIER TODAY, HUMAN REMAINS WERE DISCOVERED CONSISTENT WITH
THE DESCRIPTION OF GABBY PETITO. >> THE FBI SAYS GABBY'S REMAINS WERE FOUND AT THE SPREAD CREEK CAMPING AREA INSIDE
BRIDGER-TETON NATIONAL FOREST IN WYOMING. AN AUTOPSY CONFIRMED THE REMAINS WERE GABBIES, AND THE CORONER
CONFIRMED HER DEATH WAS A HOMICIDE BY MANUAL STRANGE EWE LAGS. >> WE HAVE NO COMMENTS.
>> GABBY'S FAMILY ASKED FOR PRIVACY, BUT HER FATHER JOE SENT OUT A TWEET THAT SUMMED UP THE MOMENT.
IT READ SIMPLY, SHE TOUCHED THE WORLD. HOURS AFTER IT WAS ANNOUNCED, GABBY HAD BEEN FOUND OVER A
DOZEN FBI AGENTS AND POLICE OFFICERS SWARMED THE HOME OF POLICE ARRIVED, THE FBI ARRIVES, THEY WERE CARRYING A BATTERING
RAM. THEY ALSO ANNOUNCED THAT THEY HAD A WARRANT. I THINK SEEING THESE FBI AGENTS
AND POLICE HERE, YOU WONDER, DO THEY NOW KNOW WHERE HE IS? THE NEXT DAY, NORTH PORT POLICE, THE FBI, AND OTHER AGENCIES
RAMPED UP THE SEARCH OF THE NATURE PRESERVE NEAR BRIAN'S HOME. >> TERRAIN IS VERY DIFFICULT.
75% OF IT IS UNDER WATER. >> 49 DAYS AFTER BRIAN HAD RETURNED HOME WITHOUT GABBY ON OCTOBER 20, 2021, THE FBI MADE
ANNOUNCEMENT. >> EARLIER TODAY, INVESTIGATORS FOUND WHAT APPEARS TO BE HUMAN REMAINS.
>> AN AUTOPSY REVEALED BRIAN LAUNDRIE HAD DIED FROM A SELF INFLICTED GUNSHOT WOUND TO THE HEAD.
AND THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE. >> ALONG WITH PERSONAL ITEMS SUCH AS A BACKPACK, A NOTEBOOK BELONGING TO BRIAN LAUNDRIE.
>> THAT NOTEBOOK CONTAINED WRITINGS FROM BRIAN EXPLAINING WHAT HE SAYS REALLY HAPPENED TO GABBY PETITO, WRITING, I ENDED
HER LIFE. I THOUGHT IT WAS MERCIFUL. >>> BEFORE BRIAN LAUNDRIE PUT A BULLET THROUGH HIS HEAD, HE
WROTE A STORY DESCRIBING HOW GABBY PETITO DIED. >> IT WAS DARK, THEY WERE RUNNING ACROSS THE STREAM.
SHE MUST HAVE FELL AND HURT HERSELF, AND HE WENT TO HELP HER, BUT SHE SEEMED TO BE IN EXTREME PAIN.
>> IN THAT SMALL NOTEBOOK FOUND IN A DRY BAG NEAR BRIAN'S REMAINS, HE WROTE, I ENDED HER LIFE.
I THOUGHT IT WAS MERCIFUL. THAT IS WHAT SHE WANTED. BUT I SEE NOW ALL THE MISTAKES I MADE.
>> IT WAS A SELF SERVING NARRATIVE THAT PORTRAYED THAT THERE HAD BEEN AN ACCIDENT AND THAT THERE HAD BEEN A MERCY
KILLING BY HIM OF HER BECAUSE SHE WAS SUFFERING. IT SPEAKS TO SELFISHNESS AND A DEGREE OF NARCISSISM THAT IT WAS
IMPORTANT HOW OTHER PEOPLE LOOKED AT HIM, HIS IMAGE. HE HAD THE LAST WORD. >> WHILE GABBY'S PARENTS WILL
NEVER SEE BRIAN LAUNDRIE FACE A JURY, THEY ARE SEEKING THEIR OWN VERSION OF JUSTICE. THEY ARE SUING BRIAN'S ESTATE
FOR WRONGFUL DEATH AND HIS PARENTS FOR INTENTIONAL INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS.
ATTORNEY PATRICK RILEY. >> IT'S OUR BELIEF THAT THE LAUNDRIE FAMILY WAS AWARE THAT BRIAN HAD MURDERED GABBY AND WAS
AWARE WHERE HER BODY WAS LOCATED. >> RILEY SAYS THAT BELIEF IS BASED ON INFORMATION FROM THE
FBI. HE SAYS THE FBI BELIEVES THAT GABBY WAS MURDERED ON AUGUST 27, 2021 AND THAT BRIAN MADE A
LENGTHY PHONE CALL TO HIS PARENTS ON THE 28th. HE SAYS ACCORDING TO THE FBI, BRIAN'S PARENTS THEN CONTACTED
AN ATTORNEY THAT SAME DAY. >> HOW DAMNING IS THAT? WHY WOULD THEY GET AN ATTORNEY SO FAST?
>> IT'S VERY DAMNING. IT DOESN'T PASS THE SMELL TEST. >> THE LAUNDRIE'S ATTORNEY ISSUED A STATEMENT DENYING THE
ALLEGATIONS IN THE LAWSUIT AND SAYS THE LAWSUIT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT THAT THE LAUNDRIES HAD NO OBLIGATION TO SPEAK TO LAW
ENFORCEMENT OR ANY THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING THE PETITO FAMILY. BUT THERE'S MORE, SAYS RILEY, A LETTER ALLEGEDLY WRITTEN TO
BRIAN BY HIS MOTHER. HE AND GABBY'S MOM READ IT WHILE REVIEWING EVIDENCE AT THE FBI'S TAMPA OFFICE.
>> THERE WAS ONE PART WHICH STICKS OUT, WHICH IS, IF YOU GO TO PRISON, I'LL BAKE A CAKE WITH A SHIF IN IT.
THE ENVELOPE THE LETTER CAME WRITTEN IN HAD WRITTEN ON IT, BURN AFTER READING. >> IF IT CAN BE PROVEN WHEN AND
IF BRIAN'S MOTHER DID INDEED WRITE THAT LETTER, IT COULD BE VERY DAMAGED SAYS MARY. >> BECAUSE IT SHOWS THE MINDSET
OF THE MOTHER, THAT SHE'LL DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT HER CHILD. >> IN ADDITION TO THE PENDING CASES IN FLORIDA, GABBY'S
PARENTS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF FILING A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE MOAB POLICE DEPARTMENT. RELATING TO HOW THEY HANDLED
THAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE STOP WITH GABBY AND BRIAN. ATTORNEY TO BRIAN STEWART. >> THE FAMILY BELIEVES THAT
GABBY WOULD STILL BE ALIVE TODAY IF THE POLICE OFFICERS HAD HAD THE PROPER TRAINING AND HAD FOLLOWED THE LAW IN HOW THEY
RESPONDED TO GABBY'S SITUATION. >> HEY. HOW ARE YOU? >> ACCORDING TO STEWART, THE
BODY CAM FOOTAGE SHOWS THERE WAS A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM. >> THE VERY BEST THING I CAN DO IS CALL MY SUPERVISOR AND SEE IF
I'M MISSING SOMETHING HERE. >> IT'S CLEAR THE OFFICERS DID NOT HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW THAT THEY WERE
SUPPOSED TO ENFORCE THAT DAY. >> THE MOAB POLICE DEPARTMENT COMMISSIONED THE CAPTAIN OF ANOTHER UTAH POLICE DEPARTMENT
TO CONDUCT THAT INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE OFFICERS' ACTIONS THAT DAY. AMONG THE REPORT'S CONCLUSIONS,
THERE WAS PROBABLE FOR AN ARREST. >> BY CHOOSING NOT TO FOLLOW THE STATUTE AND MAKE AN ARREST, THE
OFFICERS LEFT GABBY AND BRIAN IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. >> THE REPORT CITED OTHER UNINTENTIONAL MISTAKES.
>> THEY DIDN'T FOLLOW UP WITH A KEY WITNESS, WHICH WAS THE 911 CALLER. THEY DID NOT FOLLOW UP WITH
QUESTIONS TO BRIAN LAUNDRIE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE GRABBED HER FACE OR ARM. THEY DIDN'T DOCUMENT GABBY'S
WOUNDS PHOTOGRAPHICALLY OR IN THE REPORT. >> SHE SAYS THEY ALSO MISSED SOME CLASSIC TELLTALE SIGNS OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. >> HERE'S A GIRL WHO'S HYSTERICALLY CRYING WHO'S IMMEDIATELY TAKING THE BLAME AND
TRYING TO MINIMIZE HER BOYFRIEND'S ACTIONS, ALL OF THIS WHILE HE REMAINED CALM, COOL, AND COLLECTED.
IF YOU LOOK AT THAT IN THE TOTALITY, WE MIGHT HAVE HAD A DIFFERENT OUTCOME HERE HAD ALL THOSE THINGS BEEN ADDRESSED.
>> THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A GAME CHANGER. WE'LL NEVER KNOW. BUT CERTAINLY, INTERVENTION
WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE POSSIBLE UNDER THAT SCENARIO. >> ONE OF THE OFFICERS INVOLVED TOLD THE INDEPENDENT
INVESTIGATOR AFTER GABBY'S DEATH, QUOTE, I WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING TO STOP IT IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT WAS COMING.
>> WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT'S GOING ON? >> IN A STATEMENT, THE CITY OF MOAB SAID IT BELIEVED THE
OFFICERS SHOWED KINDNESS, RESPECT, AND EMPATHY IN THEIR HANDLING OF THIS INCIDENT. THE CITY INTENDS TO IMPLEMENT
THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE INDEPENDENT REVIEW, WHICH INCLUDE MORE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE INVESTIGATION TRAINING AND LEGAL
TRAINING TO MAKE SURE OFFICERS UNDERSTAND UTAH STATE LAWS. THE ATTORNEYS FOR GABBY'S PARENTS INSIST THEIR LAWSUITS
ARE NOT ABOUT MONEY. THEY'RE ABOUT RAISING AWARENESS. GABBY'S MOTHER NICOLE RECENTLY TOLD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, I GET
PEOPLE MESSAGING ME ALL THE TIME THAT THEY WERE INSPIRED BY HER TO GET OUT OF A RELATIONSHIP. >> AND I THINK THAT IN AND OF
ITSELF IS A HUGE, HUGE VICTORY FOR A FAMILY THAT HAS SADLY ENCOUNTERED SUCH TRAGEDY. BUT THERE CAN BE THESE BRIGHT
LIGHTS THAT COME OUT OF THESE BAD CIRCUMSTANCES. IF THERE IS ONE TO BE SHINED HERE, IT WILL BE HOPEFULLY THERE
WILL BE YOUNG GIRLS OUT THERE WHO SAY, I'M GOING TO WALK AWAY, I'M NOT GOING TO STAY, OR I'M GOING TO GET THE HELP I NEED TO
GET THE STRENGTH TO WALK AWAY. >> GABBY PETITO, DOING IN DEATH WHAT SHE DID IN LIFE. >> MOST DESCRIBED HER AS THIS
LIGHT. SHE'LL DO EVERYTHING TO BRING THE LIGHT OUT IN YOU. IF SHE CAN'T, SHE'LL GIVE YOU
SOME OF HERS.
