>> brian laundrie's home in north port, florida. it's not just the last place he was allegedly seen and a key part of the investigation, but it's now a circus, and part of the mystery that's captivated the nation. >> i found something really interesting. >> i can't sleep until he's found. >> the disappearances of brian and gabby have motivated posts on social media. the mystery has online detectives hooked. remember one of the last text messages gabby's mother received from her daughter's phone? according to authorities, that text read "can you help stan? i just keep getting his voicemails and missed calls." the warrant says stan is gabby's grandfather's name but her mother says she never called him stan. it didn't take long for some on social media to claim gabby may have been trying to tell her mother she was in danger, suggesting the word "stan" is an acro anymore for "send the authorities now." adding to the intrigue, brian laundrie's instagram post in which he shares he's been reading the book "lullaby" about a serial killer on

did brian laundrie kill gabby petito? but he was the last person to be with gabby petito before she died. >> do you think he killed gabby? >> i don't know. >> there's so much negativity and you turn to this beautiful soul and she just sees the beauty in it. you don't see people like that a lot. it's probably one of the reason she got so much attention because people know she sees the beauty in everyone and everything and that's awesome. >> i'm very confident that there will be justice in this case. we'll find out what happened. >> we all need to know what happened. we all are looking for justice especially the petito family. but justice for everybody. >> we're just hoping through our tragedy with losing gabby that in the future that some good can come out of it, that we can help other people that may be in a similar situation. >> the petito family says every family of a missing person deserves the same attention and support they had in the search for gabby. there are more than 91,000 active missing person records in the u

brian laundrie to be. what do you make of that? >> i think that's what investigators have to go on right now. there's been no credible sources anywhere else. >> i think it's a logical place, and they would be negligent if they didn't go search that place thoroughly because there's information whether it's credible or not that that's where he was going. but, you know, again, i'm very skeptical of the parents because of their behavior from day one. >> there's no word from authorities that brian laundrie's parents, chris and roberta laundrie, are under investigation, although they have been questioned by investigators. they have not taken a polygraph test, and their lawyer had no comment when asked if they would take one in the future. chris laundrie has gone to the carlton reserve to help investigators with their search. for days there are two searches under way -- for gabby and for brian. then on september 19th, human remains are found in a camping area in teton county, wyoming. it's devastating news for th

and that person of interest is brian laundrie. >> the fbi has been looking for brian laundrie all over the country. >> we are going to turn next to that search for the person of interest, brian laundrie. >> there have been spottings of him throughout florida. >> where is brian laundrie? >> as far north as north carolina. >> possible brian laundrie sightings along the appalachian trail. calls coming into 911. >> we've gotten almost as many tips for -- on the appalachian trail as we have for mexico. i am betting my money on mexico. >> brian's smile on his various social media sites photos provide some insight into his comfort level in natural surroundings, no matter where he may be. >> the fact that brian laundrie has spent -- the fact that brian has spent so much time in the outdoors living with minimal supplies makes the search for him a lot more complicated. is this person in the middle of a swamp? is he on the appalachian trail? is he out somewhere where no people are located? he has the possibility of lasting out there on his own without any outside help. >> we know that brian laund

again, this is assuming that this is brian laundrie. what role do you think the parents are going to play in terms of the investigative process from here on out? >> well, the investigation is going to continue, charles. the parents are going to be a focus of that continued investigation. as we know that on september 1, brian laundrie alleged to return home there without gabby petito. we know that between september 6 and the 8th, the family went hiking in the fort desoto park there and brian was alleged to have been with them. we know that on september 11, the parents -- it wasn't september 11th. it was september 13. they reported brian having been missing. on september 19, gabby petito's remains were found out there in the grand teton park. so the question that begs for an answer and they'll tell this, how long is that body been in the area in which it was found. >> there's speculation, we had again, a guest that suggested perhaps there could have been communication between the parents and perhaps a later with brian using burner phones.

the same thing as brian laundrie. so i think there is a lot of investigation to go here, some recovery of -- forensic recovery of relevant evidence. if they don't find brian or his remains, it will certainly put the search for him into overdrive as it will allow them to really focus on a particular area. >> everyone stay with me. we have randi kaye who just arrived on scene where this search continues, where these articles were found. randi, what are you seeing and what more are you learning there? >> reporter: ana, we're just at the entrance to the makayachi creek. this is where the family mustang had been found and tagged as an abandoned car and the laundrie family drove that car back home. here at the entrance there is a police vehicle and some police officers here. we understand there is law enforcement on the scene inside this area. this was an area they had just reopened and were allowing the public back in, and then we understand from the family attorney for the laundrie family that chris and roberta laundrie h

a possible break in the manhunt for brian laundrie. the coroner has been called out to the park where laundrie may have gone the day he was last seen. you are looking at life images there, north port, florida. i am sandra smith in new york. hi, john. >> john: this is all very intriguing. the development, and after laundrie's parents visited the park earlier today to help search the area after a brief research according to attorney. items belonging to their son were fou

investigators found articles belonging to brian laundrie. no confirmation they've found him or his body or any remains. what do you make of all of this? >> well, they are going with what they know right now, which is that they have items which i have no doubt the parents said, yes, that's brian's probably camping gear, backpack, a tarp, a tent, something like that. but the fact they have cadaver dogs there is really telling. it means they must have found something to indicate there are human remains. the fact they brought a coroner. but those two things contradict one another. if you have a body, you don't need cadaver dogs. you just need a coroner. so it really raises the question, are they still looking for human remains, and if they've found them, do they actually belong to brian laundrie? the greater question, jake, is how the parents knew exactly where to look for their son's belongings that they found very quickly once they came off the path. it makes you wonder if they knew all along where brian was, if, indeed, they've found some tra

authorities on the ground there as brian laundrie's parents, brian laundrie a person of interest in the murder of gabby petitio. his parents were told that law enforcement may have found something. fox news digital was able to confirm to the attorney for the laundrie family that they were told that some articles belonging to brian were found. john, as we have been reporting in a corner has been to the park there. dr. michael barden says that means they have a body. whether that body is brian laundrie, we have no information. very interesting to see not only the authorities on foot there in that part, but also the cadaver and her dog. we just saw the canine truck a short while ago. >> john: if this is puzzling, why are they searching the park with a dog? unless of course his body has been there for a long time and an animal carried away part of it. i don't know. rather puzzling. >> sandra: we will have more on this coming up. >> john: looking forward to that. if you were concerned with the rising prices and empty store shelves "the washington post" has some words of advice. stop demandin

brian laundrie showed up september 1 in florida. if you do the millage, if you're driving 20 hours a day, it takes a couple days there. problem to august 28, 29, that kind of is the timeline there. if you're brian laundrie's attorney, mercedes and then a final question for dr. baden, if you're brian laundrie's attorney, do you want the precise cause of death released or do you not? >> probably don't want the precise cause of death. at this point -- look, wouldn't it be great to know what the theory mind be behind her death? that would be great for defense attorneys. but also, they're already amassing their defense. they're going to say i'm sure that brian left her in the woods, had a big fight. she didn't want to get back in the van. had to leave. didn't have money. used her credit card. they had this big fight. he's going to create this obviously smoke screen as any defense attorney would do to try to save a client. >> dr. michael baden, lastly to you what is the thing if you were doing this autopsy what is the key thing you look f

any sign of brian laundrie. now, tonight, when the fbi spoke to journalists, they did not take questions. so at this point, we don't know what was written in that notebook. we don't know what was found inside that backpack or what else may have been found in the nearby area. but investigators insisting that this is still very much an active and ongoing investigation. >> investigators found what appears to be human remains, along with personal items, such as a backpack and notebook belonging to brian laundrie. >> reporter: tonight, a major development in the search for brian laundrie at the nature reserve where teams have spent weeks searching. the potential remains not confirmed to belong to laundrie were found nearly five weeks after laundrie was reported missing following the disappearance of his fiancee gabby petito. >> these items were found in an area that, up until recently, have been underwater. >> reporter: the items were found just a day after the park re-opened to the public after the initial search fo

family of brian laundrie against the family of gabby petito. we talked with gabby's family. they said they wanted him alive to ask questions and if he's responsible, held accountable. martha? >> martha: thank you, laura. we'll go back as news merits this afternoon. let's bring in mark eiglarsh watching this with us, former prosecutor and mercedes colwin, fox news contributor. mark, let's start with what happened this morning, which is that brian laundrie's parents either decided on their own or were asked to go to this section of the park. this is the same area that is adjacent to the same area where they had told law enforcement that that's probably where their son went. what do you make of what happened earlier this morning? >> well, either they were told directly to go there because they knew that there was something going on -- look, this is the beginning of the end. i knew this day was coming. he knew what he had done. he knew that it would not lead to an acquittal. we learned recently what was done to sweet gabby and how he took her life

they were strictly relying on brian laundrie's parents. sure enough, this area opened up behind me yesterday after being closed for more than a month, and the parents called authorities and said they wanted to search this morning so they did that, and apparently they found these items. the coroner is also on the scene working the scene here, processing what was found as well as a human remains detection dog. that is on the scene as well with ka couple of spotters also working the scene here. that dog can only detect a decomposing body. that is not a dog looking for somebody that's missing or on the run. >> important to find out that the video we have been showing was from earlier today. now, there is that faa no fly zone over the park. we're not going to be getting much more of that until at least until tomorrow as this has been called by the faa, randi kaye. thank you so much. we'll bring you the statement from the fbi as soon as it happens. >> meanwhile, president biden just took off from joint base andrews and is headed to his hometown

do you have any doubts it's brian laundrie? >> i can't make any comment about any suspects because we are not involved in that part o the investigation. we are only involved in the investigation of the body of th deceased. so who committed the homicide i really to be determined by law enforcement. >> i thank you for your hard work, and i always say in so many cases i've been involved in , let the pathologist and the coroner do their work no matter how long it takes so i think yo probably don't of really good job on this case. thank you for your time. >> doctor, this is rochelle wit abc action news in tampa. can you kind of walk us through the process to how you arrived at this specific manner of death ? >> in this state of wyoming there are four possibilities fo a manner of death, they are homicide, suicide, accident, an natural. those are the four choices. what we do an investigation as we look at the crime scene or o the scene of death, the scene o the body, the condition of the body, and finding findings at autopsy and toxic

they found no physical evidence we're told that brian laundrie was ever in that reserve. and considering the amount of controversy surrounding his parents do you think police should be taking tips from them? >> unfortunately, jim, i think that's the only source they have. so they have to rely on something. the fact that they're searching and they haven't found anything yet, it doesn't bode well for him being found or found alive anyway, in that location. however i think he had plenty of time to get away to other locations, as i said before. i think he could have made it to the appalachian trail and hidden somewhere along there in a cave, ravine or in a tent off the trail. but i think they need to keep looking where they have a report of him last being located. and that is the game preserve. >> right. do you think -- i mean, what's your sense at this point? do we even know if he's still alive? we don't know that, do we? >> no, we don't know that. i don't think he went there to take his life. i think he is a scrappy guy. i think he is used to being out in the wilderness and

for weeks, brian laundrie was the most wanted man in america. the 23-year-old who was wanted for questioning in the death of his 22-year-old fiancee vanished without a trace after telling his parents he was going for a hike in this nature reserve. but that manhunt may have come to an abrupt end with the discovery of partial human remains in a part of the park that was previously under water. a dark turn in the search for brian laundrie. >> investigators found what appears to be human remains, along with personal items such as a backpack and notebook belonging to brian laundrie. >> reporter: investigators making the grim discovery at a florida nature reserve, saying it could take some time to confirm the identity of the remains. >> these items were found in an area that, up until recently, had been under water. it's likely the team will be on scene for several days. >> reporter: it's not certain the remains are those of laundrie, but the family's attorney told cnn wednesday it's likely they are. >> the probability is strong that it is brian's rem

this is an area that apparently brian laundrie would frequent. he would come here and hike and camp at the environmental park. his father was here with law enforcement not long ago searching for him and i should note the park here just opened yesterday to the public once again and then all of a sudden, the parents where are here searching and found these items. law enforcement has been searching here since september 17th looking for brian laundrie. his parents were the only source of information sending law enforcement here to search for him and they were not able to find any articles of any evidence that he was here except for the laundrie family mustang had been parked in this area and tagged as an abandoned car on september 14th. we also know there's a cadaver dog that was brought here. that is a human remains detection dog which only detects human remains. not a living human being. and we also know that the coroner was called in here. now the dog has been here before, but the coroner has not and we can tell you that the fbi evidence response

brian laundrie was for weeks the most wanted man in america. last seen in mid-september when he allegedly told his parents he was coming to this nature preserve to go on a hike. that manhunt may have come to an abrupt end yesterday. we're waiting on forensic analysis and the cause of death. >> nick valencia, appreciate the reporting, thank you. >>> let's dig deeper now, discuss with former fbi assistant director for the criminal investigative division chris swecker and jean casarez who has been covering this story from the beginning. as i'm listening to nick's reporting, to where we're at this morning in this case, and how the laundrie parents have or have not been cooperating with law enforcement at different times during the investigation, if you were speaking with them this morning, what are the questions that you have for brian laundrie's parents? >> yeah, i think this is the first step towards closure here. the finding of the remains, which are high likelihood will be brian laundrie. question you ask the parents would be -- the approach to

we did reach out to brian laundrie's family attorney and he confirmed that earlier this morning, brian laundrie's parents did stop by the environmental park where we are right now. now, we did see a massive law enforcement presence here today and they have confirmed to us that they are going to be looking at these new findings that they found for the next several days and they did say this area, including the carlton reserve, are going to remain closed to the public during the investigation. megan meyers, back to you. >> megan, thanksso much. e we hoped to go to her colleague, live at the laundrie home, but we're having some technical issues at the moment we can tell you his parents were involved in the finding of the items recovered. remember last night, brian laundrie's family notified the cops that they were going to go out and search on their own, and the cops said we'll go along with you as the story goes, they showed up and found that backpack and other belongings, and a short time later authorities report they found the remains, a positive identity on those remains could take so

and anderson, we have also been able to confirm that the laundrie parents -- brian laundrie's parents were also here at the reserve when these remains were discovered earlier today, anderson. >> sorry, just two quick questions. sorry. how -- how far from where these items were found to the place where the car was left? >> reporter: about two or three miles is how it was described to me by the spokesman for north port police. in the carlton reserve, this park where we are, this entrance serves as an entrance, one of several entrances into the carlton reserve but the remains were found in the carlton reserve about a 45-minute walk from this spot. >> and you said brian laundrie's parents, are they cooperating? >> reporter: they are now, apparently. they haven't always been cooperating, though. they didn't really want to answer questions. they pointed police to their lawyer, early on. but just about a week or so ago brian laundrie's dad did come out with authorities and search this area. tried to show them where his son's favorite hiking trails are, where he liked to camp. and then just l

we know september 13th laundrie, brian, goes missing himself. last seen allegedly in the carlton reserve. they started and searched the reserve. we know september 19 gabby's body was found in the grand teton park there in wyoming. we know september 23, brian was charged with the use of her credit card. those are some of the facts that are faced. now that we have found that the cause of death is strangulation, i think they're beginning to close in, meaning the fbi, on a suspect. as you know, neil, brian has been all along treated as a person of interest. i have a feeling that sooner than later those -- that will change and i to believe that there is enough perhaps maybe from all indications to charge brian with the strangulation here of this young lady. >> neil: i'm just going through the timeline with you, ted. doing the math backwards. if her body was found the 19th and it was in the park for upwards of three to four weeks, that would put roughly the time of her death around august 19 to august 26, which follows the prior videos we've seen abou

we're hearing about possible sightings of brian laundrie in north carolina. the sheriff in that area says he doesn't know how valid the sightings are, but all of that information taken to the fbi because they're trying to use every resource possible. >> nadya romero, thank you so much, in florida. >>> let's talk more on this and zero in on the images we saw in the body cam video which i think everybody knows is so disturbing. i want to bring in dr. green, she is an expert on violence against women and children and executive producer of "ending domestic abuse" podcast. so good to see you. >> thank you so much for having me. >> i think it's been so troubling for everyone to see that video and to see different angles of it and different portions of it and try to piece together what was happening and just to see, you know, gabby petito, you know, just crumbled in tears and clearly in a lot of pain. when you look at this footage with the expertise that you have, you see something different perhaps or something a lot more magnified. is this a window into what domes

brian laundrie is the one and only person of interest in this case. he is also a wanted fugitive for allegedly using somebody else's atm card in august. >> sandra: the search continues. >> mike: phil holloway is a former assistant district attorney and former police officers and legal advisor to the georgia sheriff's department. welcome. what do you make of this request to brian laundrie's dad to help with the search? >> well, if you ever want to know, mike, what police are thinking, just look at what they are doing. in this case, now they are back in force in the swampy area in south central florida, that suggests they believe their intelligence is solid. as phil mentioned alive or dad brian laundrie is somewhere out there in that swamp. i think that probably is going to turnout to be the case. i always felt some of the other leads might be red herrings because the police paused that search at the swamp but never abandoned it. the fact that the father is now showing his son's favorite places suggests to me that everybody is on the same page. the inte
