What Happened In 2021?
Brain Laundrie and his fiancee Gaby Petito (Gabrielle Venora Petito), had decided to go on a four-month trip in their Ford Transit Connect Van across the US. As per Gabby’s YouTube channel, their trip went well. But her sudden disappearance took the internet by storm. Weeks before her disappearance Utah police found them having trouble in their relationship. Though everyone shared different stories, the officials stated that Brian had slapped Gabby, and she had struck his arm. She cried during interrogation, so police sent Brian to sleep in a hotel while Gabby stayed in the van.
However, the police mentioned that she didn’t want to leave Brian, but he was pushing her away. Later on September 1, Brian returned home alone, so her family reported Gabby missing. But his parents suggested not to comment on her case. This is because he was the suspect and brought their lawyers to deal with it. Soon on September 19, 2021, police found a corpse whose description matched Gabby’s. Her body was found in Wyoming.
