Alive or dead? I fear the worst. If she is alive why wouldn’t the boyfriend be doing everything in his power to help locate her? Find a that matter, what kind of boyfriend travels cross country with his girlfriend then leaves her stranded and then drives her vehicle back home? What a nightmare!

I hope she will be found safe. I fear she won't.

Sure hope her dad isn't the only one that goes to jail. Not sure I could control myself. Hope he can. But a good ass whipping is what that punk needs.

Never heard of her until now so had to google the name. Does sound a bit fishy indeed.

I do hope she is found safe, but I doubt it from what I've read. I find it interesting analyzing what makes one of the ~600,000 missing people reported every year in this country stand out and grab the national attention. Granted, most of those 600,000 are runaways, or short term. But a large number of them aren't. Not detracting from the importance of any one of them! Just interesting analyzing why this one has our attention and all the others, sadly don't... https://www.fox13now.com/2019/06/25/more-than-600000-of-americans-go-missing-every-year-most-are-runaways

Gabby is of interest because she is a You-tuber who was documenting this trip with her fiance.

Good point.... Now I'm hoping the whole thing turns out to be a publicity stunt to get more views to their vlog.... Probably isn't, but hoping...

If that's the case, both should get spanked! But it would be a happy spanking, for her parents at least. I also fear they won't get that opportunity.

My attention is peaked because after 67 years, I have a granddaughter, never had a daughter. I try to imagine my emotions in the circumstances, especially with so little to go on. I know my grandsons could find themselves in harms way too and I would feel no less frantic but it’s hard to discount the emotions of protecting our girls.

There's a reason the top suspect is always the spouse, boyfriend, family member (at least to start).
Actually several:
Most murders are by family and friends. (not random criminals)
And they simply have more contact with and knowledge of the victims.
A category of common law murder was created just for enraged spouses.... long ago.
Officer, my husband fell on his knife.
27 times?
He always was a persistent son of a bitch.

When answers are needed quickly and in entirety, a good dragging would yield best results. Stop & go until enlightened satisfactorily. That's just for my girls, but then it would get ugly after that. The older I get, the less life in prison is a deterrent.

Sounds like her bf Brian Laundrie is on the lam now too. He better hope the law catches him before Gabby's dad does.

Unless he has skipped the country, he is just trying to buy time. If he ever had feelings for this girl his conscience will make any future miserable. The whole time the media has been camped out at his parents home, I never believed he was there. His legal advisers are doing their job but they must feel pretty dirty. If she was alive when he left her, her existence has surely been terrible since.

She's dead.  (Full forensic proof not done yet, but everything lines up to look like her. Cause of death not yet known.)

So sad. As was mentioned, there are too many of these cases and this one took the media spotlight because of Gabby's YouTube celebrity. But she seemed like such a good, sweet girl. Her dad described her as, "the coolest chick you'll ever meet". I guess they have already informed her parents, so it looks like they're sure it's her.

Yep, sure seems like its her, even though there are 2 others missing in that area.
I think her boyfriend has no intentions of coming out of the swamp.

"The swamp" my guess was to deter and buy time. I bet he's long gone out of the country before charges could have been filed. No one could even have detained him.

Life as he knew it is over for Laundrie. I am very skeptical that he ever entered the “swamp”. There is no future for him there. Does he have the finances for an extended time on the lamb, who knows? He will be paying a high price sooner or later.

Somebody is not going to be driving their convertible Mustang any time soon. I hope they give it back to them in pieces. FBI just hauled it off.

my guess is since they cant find him he has most likely committed suicide. Guilt ridden no doubt.

Thats kinda what I was thinking too when I mentioned him not coming out of the swamp. That guy doesn't seem very bright.

If you don't enjoy camping with your girlfriend, don't camp with her.
No need to beat and murder her (if he did). Running away and hiding is usually not the sign of an innocent conscience.
Waiting for cause of death.

"When you treat it as just one dramatic, isolated case, you miss the bigger picture," said Kiersten Stewart, director of public policy and advocacy at the nonprofit Futures Without Violence. "On average, three women a day are killed in this country from domestic violence and we're not doing enough to address it." This is an excerpt from a USA Today article and so she's another statistic, but not to those close to her. She made the mistake of becoming a princess of the YouTube generation in thinking that her "perfect life" would lead to having a perfect partner and living a perfect, young life. All to be caught on camera for the world to admire and desire. Starlets have always fallen from the heavens after flying too high. In a year she'll be forgotten and replaced by another sweetheart of the rodeo. There are sociopaths on every amerikan highway. Repeat and rinse. Her soul is at rest now and she'll be forever young.

There is a lot of writing going on now criticizing the press for picking up on bad things happening to pretty young white girls, and no stories on other women. That is not entirely true, though there may be some merit to this argument, but that does not make what happened to her any less miserable. Dads everywhere should carefully vet their daughters boyfriends (and future husbands). I know I could have used some vetting on a couple of my girlfriends (back in my youth). At lest I knew better than to bring them aorund to meet my folks. Loose morals can be a lot of fun, but that needs to be a short term rental, not a long term commitment.
