Deposition Bombshell Rocks Gabby Petito Case – Laundries Reportedly Told to Stay Silent Just Days After the Killing

New details have emerged about phone calls Brian Laundrie made to his parents after murdering his fiancee, Gabby Petito, during the couple’s cross-country road trip in late August 2021.

According to court depositions filed in the ongoing civil ⚖️Lawsuit brought by Petito’s parents, Laundrie placed up to 20 calls to his mom and dad over the course of two days — Aug. 29 and 30, 2021.

The sudden flurry of calls showed a marked difference in his behavior on the trip, as he had only called them six times total over the previous two months of the road trip, the New York Post reported.

The first call occurred on Aug. 29 and lasted 55 minutes. In it, Laundrie frantically told his father, “Gabby’s gone, I need a lawyer,”  the Petito family lawyer Pat Reilly told The Daily Mail.

Reilly asserted that Laundrie was clearly admitting Gabby was dead, while Laundrie’s father, Christopher Laundrie, claimed he thought it could mean Gabby had just temporarily gone off on her own, as she had done previously.

“They refused to acknowledge that that meant Gabby was dead, which flies in the face of logic. If your son calls and he’s frantic and he says she’s gone, I need a lawyer. What other explanation of ‘gone’ could there be?” Reilly told the Daily Mail.
