Major Discovery In Petito - Laundrie Case

Above, Gabrielle Petito and Brian Laundrie.

The media has been reporting over the past several hours that items belonging to fugitive Brian Laundrie have been found. Some have also reported that "partial human remains" have also been found. Maybe a gator got him? The area where the items were found were previously under water.

This does not come as a surprise to me as I blogged that Laundrie is either in hiding or dead on September 21.

The FBI is supposed to hold a news conference on the findings. 

From Newsday:

The Sarasota County, Florida, medical examiner’s office said Wednesday it was called to the massive park and reserve where authorities found articles belonging to Brian Laundrie, the "person of interest" in the strangulation death of his former fiancee and Blue Point native Gabrielle Petito.

The FBI will brief the media at 4:30 p.m. about today’s developments in the search for Laundrie, the Tampa office said in a news release.

From The Independent (U.K.):

Police found partial human remains inside the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park on Wednesday near where belongings believed to have been Brian Laundrie’s were found earlier in the day. Mr Laundrie’s parents visited the park to examine the items. The Sarasota medical examiner has been called to the scene, as have human remains detecting dogs.
