Brian Laundrie’s Reclusive Parents Spotted For First Time Since ‘Shovel’ Allegations

Brian Laundrie’s reclusive parents have reared their heads in new photos.

The disgraced parents of Gabby Petitio‘s murderer were recently photographed outside of their North Port, FL. home.

This is the first time they’ve been seen in public since Gabby’s parents filed claims that Roberta Laundrie offered to buy Brian a shovel and help bury the body.

In photos obtained by The U.S. Sun, Roberta was spotted barefoot while getting mail out of her mailbox.

His father, Christopher Laundrie, was seen wearing a button up short-sleeve shirt, cargo shorts and carrying a cooler into their home.

The Blast previously reported on Gabby’s parents claims that Roberta may have aided her son in disposing of their daughter’s body.

Last year, a motion in the lawsuit for damages in the death of Gabby was filed by the attorney for the Petito estate.

Petito-family attorney, Patrick Reilly, asked a Sarasota court to order Chris & Roberta to provide documents from 2021 to now.

One document is an alleged note from Roberta to Brian offering to bring “a shovel to help bury the body.”

Gabby’s body was discovered in a Wyoming National Park in September 2021; however, her parents allege her fiancé murdered her on August 27, 2021.

Brian admitted to killing Gabby in a series of notebook entries. He claimed it was the “merciful” thing to do after she allegedly suffered a bad injury while hiking.

The newest motion filed by Reilly doesn’t specify when the alleged note from Roberta to her son was written or give any information surrounding how it was given to Brian.

However, Reilly attached a “good faith” letter to the motion, and he argued why the documents are relevant. In the letter, he claims that the FBI released the note in June to the custody of Steve Bertolino, an attorney for the Laundrie family.

Bertolino responded to Reilly’s allegations via a statement given to Fox News Digital on Friday, December 30, 2022.

He wrote, “Attorney Reilly and his clients are entitled to allege what they want in court filings but their allegations are not based on fact but on conjecture only. The letter in question was written prior to Brian and Gabby leaving Florida and has nothing to do with this case. Attorney Reilly is trying to further sensationalize this tragedy to bolster his case by taking unrelated comments out of context.”

Reilly stated in the motion that they requested the documents on March 24, 2022, and that the Laundries’ responses were due on April 25, 2022.

He goes on to claim Bertolino and the Laundrie family never filed a response to his original request and only served objections and responses that were never e-filed with the court.

In addition to this alleged note, Reilly is also requesting Bertolino and the Laundrie family hand over “all notes, diaries, calendars, memoranda that memorialize or reference each and every conversation had with Gabby from July 2, 2021 to Sept. 1, 2021.”

Furthermore, Reilly’s also requesting all financial documents for any of Brian’s financial accounts from Aug. 1, 2021 through Oct. 21, 2021, as well as additional items.

Reilly has asked to court to enter an order that would require the Laundrie estate provide the above documents by the end of January.

This case is different from the Petito’s wrongful death lawsuit against the Laundries. That was settled in November and Gabby’s family was awarded $3 million.
