The Red Flags Missed in Gabby Petito's Tragic Case

[@catnawang1190]

How are the Laundrie parents even allowed to be anywhere near locations Brian might be at? They shouldn’t have been involved with the search at all. The entire Laundrie family don’t even sound like they cared about Petito, and she’s supposed to be a future family member, absolutely insane.

Small correction, Gabby doesn't say "I was trying to get him to stop talking and calm down." She says "I was trying to get him to stop *telling me* to calm down." He was taking her keys and threatening to drive off in her van, all while telling her "calm down, shut up, you're making a scene" over and over. He was driving her crazy on purpose so he'd have an excuse to punish her. He knew what he was doing.

You couldn’t have explained it better. I’ve been in Gabby’s shoes. My ex husband always was cool, calm & collected around certain people/the cops when neighbors would call on us. He drove me crazy & then would blame me for what HE was doing to me/how he was treating me. A real abusive narcissist will have the true victim looking like they’re crazy & make themselves look like they are the one in the right. He pushed my buttons so much, physically abused me, spit on me, pointed a gun (that accidentally went off 5 mins later into the wall) at my face. I started having thought of really hurting that man.

This is definitely a case of domestic abuse. The fact Brian acted so calm and that Gabby was basically having a breakdown is definitely a red flag.

[@DinoTaken]

Psychological manipulation is a type of social influence that aims to change the behavior or perception of others through abusive, deceptive, or underhanded tactics. By advancing the interests of the manipulator, often at another's expense, such methods could be considered exploitative, abusive, devious, and deceptive. Social influence is not necessarily negative. For example, people such as friends, family and doctors, can try to persuade to change clearly unhelpful habits and behaviors. Social influence is generally perceived to be harmless when it respects the right of the influenced to accept or reject it, and is not unduly coercive. Depending on the context and motivations, social influence may constitute underhanded manipulation.

I'd say background check the parents or their lawyer for connections. Aside from suspicious behaviors of the parents, finding a part of the skull that can be "verified" through dental records is too much of a coincidence. They might be just buying time for Brian so by the time the DNA extraction results with the remains unfold to be not him he's already away somewhere where he's not about to be seen. Personally, I don't believe he's dead. The parents also knew exactly what to do, they're certainly getting good legal advice to be able to get to join that searching party just because they're the ones who reported him "missing" first.

The person being battered will try to minimize the abuse and even take fault for it so they don't have to be separated but from their abuser. I've been in the situation before and I've seen it happen many times and it never ends pretty. You would think an experienced police officer would know this simple psychology. I'm not trying to bring him down or say anything bad about his judgment; I'm just trying to point out failures that other officers could take notice of and apply them to different situations so that maybe we can stop this abuse and save some lives.

Its such a common thing in domestic abuse situations. Law enforcement needs to recognize the realities of these situations, because current procedures are dangerous for most victims of abuse.

[@teru_9921]

I definitely see my past self in Gabby in the police's body cam footage. I'd blame myself for his actions, he showed jealousy of my own success instead of supporting and encouraging me, he'd use my insecurities, naivety and anxiety to keep himself in control over the relationship to make me stay, gaslighted me, and destroyed me mentally so he could tell everyone that I'm the problem. I see all of those in just a few seconds of conversation between officer Pratt and Gabby. The only difference is that I have friends and family who supported me, and for that, I was able to handle the situation well and ended the relationship before the situation could get out of control. Now I'm in a healthier relationship and couldn't be more happier and grateful. It's a shame that this case was not met with a happy ending, but I hope everyone who sees this could learn from our experiences 🙏

Brian was also putting her down when he said that she wouldn't be noticed on social media. I do believe that she was secretly calling out for help.

I was screaming at the screen as they reported Gabby had been the aggressor. I knew immediately he was the abuser & she was the victim. Please understand, when your in an abusive & controlling relationship they TELL YOU to take the blame. It's all your fault, you made me do it, what's wrong with you, you'll have to say it was you because your getting me in trouble & I cant take anymore or cover for you, I'll have to walk away from you etc etc. Your that confused you believe it is you even though you cant work out what you've meant to of done. Gabby was questioning what she'd done, she didnt have a clue. Then she blamed herself, the confusion was disturbing to watch. This poor young woman never got to the point of clarity because he took her life before she could. RIP Gabby

The call they were responding to said Gabby was the abuser. She admitted hitting Brian and said that was why he swerved. Didn't you watch the body cam footage? Due to the evidence showing Brian with scratches, which the officers documented, they were going to charge Gabby with DV. It was the second officer who did the wrong thing by being sexist and trying to convince the first officer to let her off, which would not have happened if she was male.

They cannot arrest someone based on what they think may have happened and there was not enough evidence to do anything else especially after what she told them had happened. The evidence given would not hold up in a court of law and lawsuits could ensue.
