The family of Gabby Petito appeared in court Wednesday to urge the judge overseeing their civil case against Brian Laundrie’s family to release the “burn after reading” letter penned by the killer’s mom, Roberta Laundrie. “If you need to dispose of a body, I will show up with a shovel and garbage bags,” the disturbing letter read. The Law&Crime Network’s Sierra Gillespie breaks it down and reads the letter from start to finish.

if id see that boy locked up he get tortured . he took the cowards way out
Roberta Laundrie is a WITCH!!!
I have a son, too. If I wrote him a letter of support I would certainly say I'd always be there for him, through thick and thin. I'd never in my wildest dreams say I'd help him bury a body or buy a shovel. WTF, that is NOT normal!
They are a bunch of sickos
Omg …… ENOUGH ALREADY!
This letter shows a sick mom🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 no wonder The son was also a sicko 🤢🤮
I would really love to hear a psychiatrist's take on this letter. I am no expert, but it reads as major co-dependency and mental illness.
Honestly parents do this when they want their child to confess,To hear that your loved one won’t stop loving you after you confess to something bad helps them break – but here I don’t see this woman doing that , also this sounds rather inappropriate to write to your son ? It sounded liked a twisted love letter 🤢 if i was her lawyer I’d say she was trying to get him to confess Because she had a reason to believe something bad happened to the gal , that would play out so much better than this line of defence they adopted
I keep seeing this couple being covered, weren't they both found dead?
Can someone tell me what this story is about in a nutshell?
man im glad i never had kids to watch them grow up in this social media era. trying to adapt to it being 40 myself already sucks enough let alone worrying about what it does to children
When I see that picture of Gabby, it breaks my heart. The police should’ve insisted that she stayed with them and none of this would’ve happened on that day anyway. So so sad.
Unacceptable. I hope they know just effing sick they both are . I hope they watch all these videos about them and read these comments. Laundrie family YOU ALL SUCK. Including the DAUGHTER. POS . All of y’all .
I bet she was being a ho on social media 😮
If this letter was found in his backpack after they found his remains , wouldnt that prove that his mom wrote him this letter after he commited the crime??? Who carries around a letter like that for months on a road trip??
Poor girl. Everybody thought she was crazy smh
So sorry…the family will forever live with their gilt for not intervening is sad.😢😢😢😢
what is most disturbing is.. how she put on the fakest show for her IG or taktok viewers, while she was getting beaten up and her bf wanted to kill her. imagine ur relationship is so bad you both end up dead because of eachother😢
Norman/mama Bates vibes!!!!😮
Maybe if she got a real job instead of social media. Millenials are so diluted.
So sad, such a beautiful gentle soul Gabbie seems and it’s so disturbing seeing this video when she’s speaking to police😡they should have arrested the monster and poor Gabby would still be here😞
Brian clearly had issues that stemmed from his maternal bond or lack thereof. It explains his domestic violence and physical harm toward his girlfriend. But most indicting is the specifics mentioned by his mother in her attempt to express her love for her son. Bury a body, bake a cake in jail…and using Biblical scripture as well shows narcissism at work. Good luck Roberta. Love is really a verb and not a noun. It's your actions that will lead to your conviction.
Coward ends his own life 😡
i think she loved her son a little too much, that letter was really weird lmao
That letter is very disturbing
They will reap what they sow
they need to stop there are no winners here they both lost a son and a daughter and the whole thing is heart breaking. Nothing will bring them back the pic of Gabby crying is heart breaking
Brian shagged his mom
That video of her in the tent is clearly after she’s done crying. She “dated down”, meaning she could’ve easily dated a much much better ‘man’ (I use that term loosely with this coward). It’s sad when young women like Gabby don’t realize their worth, their beauty (inside and out) & that a pathetic little twerp like this coward only holds them back from reaching their potential.
Typical religious nuts.
I knew the parents were involved!!!! The mother is an evil witch!!!!
Jeez, that letter. Get a room, lady.
Dirty Laundries
He had a very very dark personality and his art was very weird/dark. Seems as though it was genetic
The parents have been absolutely vile since the beginning
Why does she look like she’s been crying every video she takes?
That is a Creepy Mom!!
The Laundries are persona non-grata. They probably have to watch their backs every where they go. I find it ironic and ceepy that this smiling boyfriend would ultimately be her undoing, and strangle her to to death. What did she do to deserve this? It reminds me of an old some call Smiling Faces.
"Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within"
Interestingly, Brian Laundries mother quoted a verse from Roman. But I quote another verse about Brian: "It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea"
The letter seems to indicate they Brian's mother was willing to overlook all manner of evil in her son, which makes her pretty bad.
The way they twist the meaning of a love letter from mother to son is enraging. They are insisting on blaming these parents for the son's doings. Most parents of murderers are not murderers, nor teach their children to murder. It is really sad to see so many people supporting such actions. Lawyers do these things because the law allows them to soil their names publicly. The fact that these actions are legal does not mean they are moral. For lawyers, the most important parts are 1- to count court victories for their careers (and maybe to aspire to politics) and 2 financial gain. This is for money. Gaby's parents believe they are entitled to this financial suit against those other parents who also lost a child. But the funniest or the worst irony of it all, is to watch those cops with Gaby, not helping her, when it was evident that she needed help desperately. They should sue the police. If there were well trained policemen in the force, they would've sensed that something was wrong. And maybe she would still be alive. SUE THOSE POLICEMEN, not the parents.
