The remains of Gabby Petito have been found but her missing boyfriend, Brian Laundrie has not. New evidence shows he shared cryptic images and messages on Pinterest – including one a few weeks ago saying: “Don’t try to find me. I have finally escaped my master’s wicked clutches.”
The 23-year-old, who has been named a person of interest in his girlfriend’s homicide, appeared to post under the account name @blaundrie1197, although this has not yet been confirmed.
“Don’t try to find me. I have finally escaped my ‘master’s’ wicked clutches,” reads the post with an image of purple and pink clouds that appears to have originated from a missing dog flier in Oregon in 2006, according to The Sun.
“To the others I say: Join me. Bite the hand that feeds you. Vive la liberté – Pierre,” it adds. It was unclear when the item was posted.
Another post in the folder titled “My Heart” contains a quote from the 1999 movie “Flight Club” that reads, “It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.”
Social-media detectives have developed a few theories and shared them online focusing their attention on the Pinterest post, where Laundrie allegedly pinned a post titled, “The Opposite of Lost.”
About five weeks ago, a post in a folder titled “Bleak” referred to the book “Burnt Out: How to Cope with Autistic Burnout,” according to the news outlet.
“Autistic burnout is when autistic people can’t do things they used to because of how little energy they have left. It takes a whole lot more energy to function whilst being autistic and do basic tasks such as remembering to eat or doing laundry,” a synopsis reportedly reads.
“Burnout leaves us feeling weak and exhausted,” it adds.
Police confirmed Petito’s death was a homicide after discovering her remains earlier this week.
