  I've been following the case a little bit, I used to follow van life stuff on youtube because there is a lot of good info for shtf     like solar, rapid evac of your area with water/food/bed/shelter already available - all sorts of neat applications and heck, I hate rent too.
Some van life folks are making good money, nomad land movie too, ( filmed like it followed my life - I moved out of Gerlach, NV lived in my truck, went to near quartzsite, AZ )

The kids got a bad case of cabin fever, but, yes, she could be the bad actor here...but I doubt it
 if he didn't kill her, why didn't he talk?

 his disappearance at first made me think he was fleeing due to guilt but yeah, you guys might be right - a relative could have accidentally killed him while extracting information with enhanced interrogation techniques

TLDR couple picked up the boyfriend and he offered them $200 to drive him 10 miles then freaked out and bailed when they told him they were headed for Jackson.

Sure as hell doesn’t sound like an innocent man…but they both sound like the kind of *expletive deleted*ing weirdos that are attracted like to the parks like flies to *expletive deleted*it.

Weird. Why was he hitchhiking if he had Gabby's van?

Well, probably bad news:

If that means the boyfriend killed her, hopefully he ran into an alligator where he's currently hiding out.

One thing I've noticed is that the media consistently refer to the van as a Transit. But after looking at clips from some of Gabby's videos, it's clear that the van is actually the smaller Transit Connect model. I have to wonder if that's affecting the kind of information the police and the FBI are receiving.

On another note -- I can't imagine trying to camp for months at a time in a Transit Connect.

My guess is when he couldn’t get away quick enough he returned to the van

Breaking news is the found a female body they believe to be hers.  He still hasn't been found. Thinki g he went in the woods and offed himself.  Florida predators (gators, panthers, etc.) may make that body impossible to find.

imo.
 like a ton of girls out there, she turned down a boatload of nice guys to go on an adventure with a bad boy.
 Pray for her, she will not be found alive.
 He will plea deal, do under ten, get a movie deal, get out and kill again.

well, it looks like so far I'm halfway correct. I hate it, its terrible and I'd like to punch the dude. kudo's to the cops that found her so the family can begin the grieving process.
I've been sort of avoiding the story, it seems like I've seen this movie before

It's now pretty clear (if there was any doubt before) that he killed her. They probably had another fight, so he killed her to shut her up. Then, rather than manning up about it, he dumped her body and went scurrying home to mommy and daddy Mommy and daddy, instead of doing the right thing and either talking him into surrendering or calling the cops, instead lawyered up and shut up. Then, once she was declared a missing person, his family started issuing platitudes< though their lawyer) about how they were praying that she would be found.

The whole bleepin' family should be charged with obstruction of justice, harboring a fugitive, and anything else the cops can throw at them.

I guess, who cares. Fox news is the only US news site I look at anymore and it is all Gabby, all the time. Tragedy she is dead. How many others happened in that time but weren't a good looking white girl?

IMO, that might actually be an interesting regular journalism story listing and looking into missing persons reports.  Not sure if the endings would be all that good.

They found a body in Wyoming matching her description.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Listening to a run down of the budget trickery the dems are using, that's actually more like $8 trillion.

More to the point, the Dems tried to sneak citizenship for DACA residents into the bill, and the Senate parliamentarian (bless her heart) nixed it. Schumer and Omar ar apoplectic.

Dollars to donuts it'll be strangulation.

They did say that it was homicide though. Of course it could be manslaughter. The way they seemed to be having ongoing physical altercations, he could have easily shoved her down hard and her head may have impacted a rock or something. One story I saw said that there was a cross made of stones where the body was found.

Good call on that a month ago, Hawk. She was strangled.

Of course.... me thinks you know a little too much... where were you during this time? Hum?

A notebook was found, and Laundrie is now a murder suspect. Additionally, human remains were found in the same area (apparently it was underwater until now), identification pending.

So I wonder if he did the decent thing and ate his gun, or did some local fauna do him in.
