Re: Anyone following the Gabby Petito story?
Posted by Jacquelina
It will be very interesting to see how this all plays out.
Just to add to the conversation...my neighbors nephew actually dated Gabby a few years ago. His parents moved to NC and she actually followed and lived with them for a bit. She did not have a great home life from what I have heard. Her mother remarried and gabby didnt get along with the Step father. I mean its strange that an 18 year old would want to leave home and live with another family...
But from what I heard, she was very very emotional and unstable. had some issues...you know and things ended very badly when the broke up. I am in no way saying this is at all her fault, just some food for thought, and of course all here say. The whole thing with the boyfreind is waaaacked....but was he abusing her?? I dont know. she was a girl with some issues and maybe they werent getting along and there was an accident. I really have no idea. The whole case is mind boggling.
DH and I had a whole conversation last night about how important the roles we as parents play in setting examples of a healthy relationship. I am in no way judging her or his parents. I don't know these people and I don't know how their marriages are/were. I don't know how old Gabby was when her parents split and I don't know what she witnessed or what Brian witnessed in his parents marriage. I am just making a general statement that as parents, it is our responsibility to ensure our children learn through our example of how a healthy relationship is managed, how to appropriately argue/disagree with a mutual respect, learn to apologize, etc. Trust me, we are far from perfect role models but we need to work on that to ensure that our boys make for good partners some day and that our daughter never tolerates anything less than she deserves.

Absolutely but again, you can't always control how your children will be in life. I am sure many murderers parents were great parents also. Parenting never ends and kids will do what kids will do and we can only hope the positive things we teach them go with them in their lives.
Such a sad story and it seems his parents are enablers. Maybe they are good parents, who knows but right now they are the most hated parents out there.

Another odd thing that has nothing to do with Brian I’m sure but apparently Gabby is the third person missing and still not found this summer in that same park. The other two are young men. Sad.
And yea.... where the hell did this kid flee to? Beyond bizarre.
I think I said it earlier on this thread but I was just there the first week of September and our guide told us people go missing there all the time because inexperienced campers and hikers underestimate the risks associated with parks like this.
What kind of risks? Murderers?
Grizzly Bears. You are basically off the grid.
And just the elements in general. Dehydration, sun exposure, overestimating abilities for climbing and traversing the terrain, etc.
Yes - all of the above except murderers.

Re: Anyone following the Gabby Petito story?
For a person to react that way (hitting her), he must have displayed that type of behavior in the past. I wonder if any friend/family member ever picked up on that, in their interactions between the two of them? That kind of behavior doesn’t happen from one day to another.

I agree. Parents def are an important part of how children will be when adults. But unfortunately there are also obstacles like peer pressure from even an early age, what they’re are constantly exposed to (types of video games, movies, songs, etc), hormonal disruptions when going through puberty that can cause long term or permanent change in the chemical balance of the brain. All of these can def make a big impact on how a person will be shaped in his/her adulthood no matter how wonderful the parents might have been.

I watched her father's interview on Dr. Phil (don't think it has aired yet) and he said they always seemed fine.

Oh ok. I thought of murderers because in such big deserted area like that park, I feel that it’d be the perfect place for murderers to kill and hide their victims’ bodies without ever being found.

Yup and that is why parents should never be commended for all the great things their kids do nor punished for all the bad things they also do.
Kids are not ONLY raised by their parents and have so many outside influences, good or bad and are just their own human being that it is a combination of everything.

Abuse is a very hidden thing. The one that is abused tends to hide it. Other family members can’t really see it. You can’t see it unless you have been in it. And families of the abuser will enable. It’s common.
I can only go on anecdotal evidence, so I can’t really comment. There have been a lot of things that stuck out to me.

Agreed. It is just that no one saw it right in front of them.
I think they both have/had issues. This age group is HUGE now with issues it seems.

Exactly. I bet they thought it would be no big deal and they could just have him talk for them.
They just brought back the Mustang so I guess they got all the evidence they need from that.

I don't think they can as it is an ongoing investigation. I think once they find him dead or alive they will.
They assume strangulation though it seems.

I wonder if they ever will find him?
I am doubting he’s in that preserve they have been searching - especially since that really looked like him on that deer cam.

I agree- I think he’s long gone with his family’s help.

They took him someplace with the camper and left him. They were gone for 3 days. He is no way in that reserve.

I think he is probably in that reserve somewhere. The FBI is involved and it seems they are spending an incredible amount of money and manpower looking for him (underwater divers, dogs, etc). If they didn't have a really strong case to believe he is there I do not think they'd be searching so fervently for him.

Sometimes I think that we give government agencies more credit than they are due. Didn't someone else come forward and say that it was them on the deer cam? If the deer cam wasn't him and the family was gone with that camper, he's gone. I would think they will find him at some point but it could be a while.
