Gabby Petito’s Attack Continued After She Lost Consciousness

[@turdferguson1548]

Man I hope this story helps others leave their toxic relationships it’s sad

[@taylorfrink1182]

oh it will. even in my case, i had already left but still struggled with wanting to go back. Gabby's case really struck me, bc watching the bodycam footage is like watching myself- i was just blessed and fortunate enough that my local PD is very educated in and devoted to stopping domestic violence. that was the only real difference between Gabby and me- the police actually saved my life. he even had strangled me (that's what he originally was arrested for), textbook narcissistic abuser. and seeing that now, i'm done ever thinking that abusive man could change because he won't. & at the very least..Gabby won't die in vain, she opened up the conversation around domestic violence and police response to abusive relationships that we've been needing to have for so long now.

You can't protect every person, especially when you don't know them and their situation. It's easy to say that the police or her parents should have done this or that after the fact. But the truth is that she was an adult and the only one that could have let people help her before her death and reach out to others. You can't help someone that wasn't willing to help themselves by getting out of a dangerous situation.

Those blows came after the baby. Previous to that there was a lot of arguing, he would drive me around on dirt roads with no street lights and snap out of nowhere. He's even but me in the trunk of his car and drove around, grill me on other men, setting traps, tickling for long periods of time. I can go on and on.

No one pushes someone to this level of anger. It was there already. If it wasn’t happening to Gabby, it would have been someone else. Gabby didn’t do this. He did. He needed to first recognise his behaviour, and want to change it before he would ever seek help. If he cared for Gabby he would have left her and got help but he didn’t. Even when she was dead he didn’t have the decency to help her family find Gabby. He show zero consideration for others around him, including his own family.

Merry piglets?

[@pretzeltime3900]

OK, I guess I gotta break it down…so maybe Brian was sooooooo angry about the entire MOAB police issue and having to be put up in a hotel room for the night so that he and Gabby were separated that their future arguments escalated and he killed her. Yes, the Merry Piglets incident was after the MOAB police intervention, but it’s MY opinion. Brian may have had others reasons to be that angry, or maybe something else no of us know about happened. Just a thought. May Gabby RIP and her family find peace one day.

That lady is totally wrong! When my husband choked me, I was so shocked and stunned, that I just stood there until he stopped. You do not know how you will react until you have been through it.

[@edyrose8458]

Yes but if you go through training hopefull you react with what you have learned

[@saraj2499]

But your husband stopped. Brian didn’t stop, so Gabby likely realized after a while that he’s not stopping like he usually does - that she was going to die if she didn’t stop him. That’s why she fought back. She was fighting for her life.

[@raincheck01]

@@saraj2499 my boyfriend didn’t stop and I was strangled unconscious. I didn’t fight back because I knew he would punch me if I did and that might kill me as well and break my facial bones. The only reason I’m alive is because he roommate came home and stopped him from actually killing me. I woke up to my boyfriend dragging me by my hair through the house holding a hammer saying he was going to beat my face in. His room mate was right there trying to get him to calm down and eventually the roommate called 911. I was trying to leave him and had walked outside headed to my car when he dragged me back inside to kill me for trying to leave.

[@raincheck01]

@@saraj2499 they aren’t saying Gabby fought back there’s no evidence of that. He may have punched her out before he strangled her. She suffered blunt force trauma to her head in addition to being strangled.

[@tsmastermind]

@@raincheck01 there’s no evidence of her trying to defend herself and with what we know now she probably didn’t because he beat her up before strangling her most likely with a rock but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen some people will be in shock sure others though will struggle and try and get their abusers hands from around their neck not everyone is the same

Gabby you forever changed policing, DV charges, seriousness and the love worldwide for you and your family and friends is such a blessing. I know Mrs. And Mr. P it doesn’t take away the pain but I hope that you feel the love. In my thoughts and my prayers

My ex boyfriend choked me after coming home drunk. Little did he know My mom was on the phone call while he did it and my phone was on the floor. She called the cops. Yes it was difficult to get out that relationship but I’m glad I did finally

[@samanthaalise5804]

I wish she left him when they were separated for an day. I wish she had someone who knew about her pain to help her walk or run away. If she knew she could leave someone who supposed to love her but didn't. RIP Gabby

During the traffic stop in Utah when Brian first got out and walked up to cops he looked guilty as f#%k. His hands always creeped me out in this video too, now I know why

[@kristinerwalsh]

Yes me too. When he got out of that van and walked over to the police his whole posture was saying , I am a baby I didn’t do anything. Before the police started talking to him. But that idiot with red beard says you have scratches oh get a picture of that . Then Brian starts showing all these itty bitty marks . But the whole time his hands we’re moving. A creep and a coward .

[@thegrumpygecko2390]

It took me so many times of leaving my abusive ex before I finally got away for good. He sat on top of me choking me one time and i could see in his eyes that he could kill me. I hope anyone out there in a abusive relationship can find the courage to leave. Rest In Peace Gabby.

I couldn't even listen to it anymore when she started explaining how she was fighting for her life kicking and scratching. I woukd love to find him before the law

[@froopty1854]

Getting to him and killing him yourself before the law would not be the right thing to do, for one you would have to be absolutely sure it was him and since Brian has such a generic look you might kill a completely innocent man. 2. If he is going to be put to death he should have a trail first, innocent until proven guilty is the way we do things. if found guilty then he would most likely be made an example of on national tv. 3. you would have to live with being that one person who killed someone before justice was properly served and alot of people would be mad at you.

[@sherri1027]

When I was in my 20's I had an abusive Boyfriend and once he got so mad at me for the dumbest reason. He was an alcoholic, I didn't know what that was back then but he choked me on the bed and I just thought this is it, I'm a goner and everything went black and a few minutes later I came to and got away from him for good!! I was so scared! All.I could think about was my family.
