Gabby Petito’s cause of death revealed
Words: Vanessa BrownProduced By: Angus Mead
The horrific circumstances around Gabby Petito’s murder have been released in “unexpected” detail by a Wyoming coroner, including exactly when the 22-year-old took her last breath.
Teton County coroner Dr Brent Blue, who identified the remains, today confirmed Ms Petito died from “strangulation” and the “manner is homicide”.
Dr Blue said no other information about the autopsy will be released, but estimated Ms Petito died three to four weeks before the body was found in the Bridger-Teton National Forest.
Despite speculation Ms Petito was pregnant, Dr Blue confirmed that not to be true, and stressed that information about a potential suspect would have to come from law enforcement.
Petito’s boyfriend Brian Laundrie still remains a person of interest and has not been seen since mid-September.
Laundrie’s parents, Roberta and Chris, claim their son went for a hike in the reserve but failed to return, forcing the pair to report him missing to local police on September 17.
During the final autopsy announcement, Brian Laundrie’s family lawyer Steven Bertolino released a statement, saying:“Gabby Petito’s death at such a young age is a tragedy."
Ms Petito’s parents have issued multiple pleas for Mr Laundrie to turn himself in and assist police with inquiries into how the travel blogger died.
“Let us bring an end to this tragic period, and just be able to move on and remember Gabby and all the wonderful memories we had with her, and not looking at a TV screen everyday wondering if he was going to be found. Just turn yourself in.”
- Joe Schmidt, Gabby Petito's stepfather
