The case of Gabby Petito has captured the attention of the entire nation over the course of the last several weeks, as her fiancé Brian Laundrie remains on the lam.
Laundrie was named a person of interest in Petito’s disappearance, and rightly so. The Florida resident returned home without Gabby, in her van, after a cross-country road trip before promptly refusing to cooperate with authorities investigating the incident.
Then, days before Gabby’s body was discovered in Bridger-Teton National Forest, Brain took off again, this time allegedly going “hiking” in Florida’s Carlton Reserve.
But now, a new revelation has emerged in the case.
A couple who live across the street from Brian Laundrie and his family told Fox News on Wednesday that they saw the 23-year-old and his parents leave their home in a truck with an attached camper about a week after Laundrie returned home alone from a cross-country road trip with his fiancée, Gabby Petito.
Authorities are still searching for Laundrie, who has been missing since last Tuesday and is a person of interest in Petito’s death, which has been ruled a homicide.
Charlene and William Guthrie, who moved to North Port, Florida, this summer, said they told authorities they’d seen Christopher and Roberta Laundrie attach what appeared to be a new camper to their truck and drive off for what the Guthries assumed was a weekend camping trip with their son.
“I saw them doing some work. And then when they prepared for their trip, I saw them loading the camper,” William Guthrie told Fox.
Laundrie has been described as a rather capable outdoorsman, leading many to believe that he may simply be hiding out in some vast swath of wilderness in an attempt to evade justice.
