Witnesses Report Brian Laundrie's Erratic Behavior Before Gabby Petito's Murder

In the months leading up to her tragic death, Gabby Petito was seen in distress during an incident in Moab, Utah, where a witness reported Brian Laundrie acting erratically and appearing to assault her. The witness described Laundrie as 'acting like a lunatic,' trying to hug Petito, who resisted, and ultimately pushing her into their van. Following Petito's disappearance and subsequent murder, Laundrie took his own life, leaving a notebook in which he confessed to the crime. The investigation revealed that Laundrie's parents were contacted by him shortly after Petito went missing, yet they declined to cooperate with authorities. Gabby's family, shocked by the revelation of Laundrie's behavior before the murder, expressed interest in speaking with the witness once they learned of his account. The case has drawn renewed attention following the release of a Netflix documentary detailing the events surrounding Petito's death.
