Netflix has dropped a three-part documentary series which delves into the tragedy behind Gabby Petito's disappearance and death - but viewers still have questions.
In 2021, Gabby Petito and fiance Brian Laundrie bought a van and set off on a trip of a lifetime to travel America together. However, it ended in tragedy the same year when Gabby disappeared, and her body was discovered in September 2021.
New Netflix series American Murder: Gabby Petito, explores Gabby's life and death through interviews with her family and friends and her social media presence at the time of her disappearance.
After buying her Ford Transit Connect in June 2021, Gabby planned to document their vanlife journey on YouTube under the account Nomadic Statik and on her Instagram account, the profile of which reads “traveling the world in our tiny van #vanlife.”
But despite the glossy appearance of Gabby's social media, things weren't going well. In August 2021, the police were alerted to in incident involving a man attacking a woman in a van, which turned out to be Gabby's van. The engaged couple were interviewed by the police who separated them for one night, before they returned to their road trip together the following day.
On 25 August, Gabby posted on Instagram for the final time. And around the same date, she stopped responding to texts. Her family and friends reached out on multiple occasions, but they never heard back. A missing person's report was filed by Gabby's mother on 11 September.
Her body was found on 19 September, and the cause of death was confirmed in an autopsy as strangulation.
Netflix's American Murder reveals that Laundrie attempted to create an alibi for himself. He made numerous phone calls to his parents saying Gabby was “gone” and he needed help, and they called an attorney immediately after.
The show reports that Laundrie hitchhiked two separate times to get from where he placed Petito’s body to get back to the van. There, he created a conversation between Gabby and himself via text on both of their phones to make it look like they weren’t physically together.
Laundrie also transfered $700 from Gabby's account to his own, with the message reading “Goodbye Brian, I’ll never ask you for anything again.” When Gabby's body was discovered, investigators could begin to piece together her final moments.
On 20 September, the day after finding Gabby's remains, the police executed a search warrant on Laundrie’s home, but Brian himself had gone missing, telling his parents a week earlier that he was going on a hike.
The parents didn’t report him missing as they expected him to return. He was somewhere in the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park, which spans over 20,000 acres. Thirty-seven days after Laundrie was reported missing, his parents discovered his remains on 20 October at Carlton Reserve.

A medical examiner later concluded that Laundrie had died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
