Brian Laundrie appeared to have acted nonchalant after he killed Gabby Petito. In a copy of a text exchange reviewed by The Messenger, Laundrie told one of his friends that his road trip with Petito was one for the books. “Trip was good,” he wrote to Ben a few days after his return home. “Gab and I had fun. Tired now, gonna sleep for a week.” Laundrie also claimed they had filmed a lot of trip footage for their YouTube channel. “We made a lot of content,” he added. “It was once in a lifetime.” Whether Ben responded to the messages remains unknown, but what’s clear is that Laundrie acted as if nothing happened.
In Laundrie’s reported written confession, he insinuated that Petito’s death was an “unexpected tragedy.” He wrote: “I ended her life. I thought it was merciful, that it is what she wanted, but I see now all the mistakes I made. I panicked. I was in shock. But from the moment I decided, took away her pain, I knew I couldn’t go on without her.”
In November 2022, Petito’s family was awarded $3 million in the wrongful death lawsuit they filed against Laundrie’s estate. According to their attorney, the money will go to the Gabby Petito Foundation – a non-profit organization that aims to help locate missing persons and provide assistance to victims of domestic violence.
