Even taken purely at face value, the letter Roberta Laundrie wrote to her son Brian was disturbing - an intense and somewhat overwrought proclamation of a mother's unwavering love for her child.
Gabby Petito was murdered by her boyfriend, Brian Laundrie, during their 2021 cross-country road trip. A letter written by Brian’s mother, Roberta, revealed her support for him, including a chilling statement about helping dispose of a body. Gabby’s body was found in Wyoming, showing signs of strangulation. The documentary *American Murder: Gabby Petito* details the couple’s trip, including a police interaction where Gabby showed signs of injury. Brian later admitted to her murder in a note. Roberta claimed she wrote the letter before the trip but its contents were disturbing. Gabby’s family searched for her after she went missing, and her body was discovered in September 2021. The documentary also reveals that Gabby had planned to leave Brian before her death.
