The death of Gabby Petito was a highly publicized and tragic event that occurred in 2021. Gabby Petito, a 22-year-old woman from Blue Point, New York, embarked on a cross-country road trip with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie. They documented their journey on social media platforms, capturing the attention of many.

On September 11, 2021, Gabby's mother reported her missing to the police, expressing concern as she had not heard from Gabby in several days. The search for Gabby intensified, and her story gained widespread media coverage. The public became invested in the case, with social media campaigns and appeals for information.

On September 19, 2021, human remains were discovered in a remote area of the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Wyoming, consistent with the description of Gabby Petito. Later, the Teton County Coroner's Office officially confirmed the remains belonged to Gabby, ruling her death a homicide. The cause of death was determined to be strangulation.Gabby's fiancé, Brian Laundrie, returned to Florida on September 1 without Gabby.

He became a person of interest in the case but disappeared shortly after Gabby was reported missing. A massive search was launched for Brian, but he remained elusive, leading to speculation and intense media scrutiny.Tragically, the investigation took a significant turn when Brian's remains were found in October 2021 in the Carlton Reserve, a nature reserve in Sarasota County, Florida. The cause of his death was determined to be suicide.


In the aftermath of Gabby's murder, her family filed several lawsuits against not only the Laundrie family, but also the the two officers in MOAB who responded to the call. The lawyer for those officers is now labeling the lawsuit as a "publicity stunt" and says that it's ludicrious that the Petito's should ask for a 50 million dollar payout.
