Where Are Brian Laundrie’s Parents Now? Gabby Petito Case
Brian Laundrie’s parents, Christopher and Roberta Laundrie, have remained largely out of the public eye since the tragic death of Gabby Petito in 2021. Their actions during the investigation, including their silence and refusal to cooperate with authorities, drew intense scrutiny and criticism.
A Family Divided
The Laundries have reportedly been estranged from their daughter, Cassie Laundrie, for nearly two years. Cassie has been vocal about her grief and has advocated for suicide prevention awareness.
Legal Battles and Settlements
In 2022, Gabby Petito’s parents filed a civil lawsuit against the Laundries, alleging they helped Brian cover up Gabby’s murder and planned to help him flee the country. The lawsuit was settled in February 2024 for an undisclosed amount.
A “Burn After Reading” Letter
A controversial letter written by Roberta Laundrie to Brian, found in his belongings after his death, added another layer to the tragedy. The letter, which included disturbing passages about helping Brian “dispose of a body,” sparked further questions about the Laundries’ involvement in the events surrounding Gabby’s death.
The Laundries Today
The Laundries have maintained a low profile since the settlement of the civil lawsuit. Their business, Juicer Services Inc., is listed as permanently closed, and their current whereabouts and activities remain largely unknown.
The Netflix docu-series American Murder: Gabby Petito has brought renewed attention to the case and the Laundries’ role in the tragedy. While the series sheds light on some unanswered questions, it also serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences of domestic violence and the importance of seeking help for those in need.
