Oh, you beautiful bastard, welcome back to the Philip DeFrank Show. Hey, hit that like button to help spread some common sense news coverage, the kind we need on these tubes of you. And let's just jump into it. You know, the first thing that we're going to talk about today are these absolutely devastating updates regarding the Gabby Petito case. And to bring you up to speed, if you're unfamiliar, she's a 22-year-old woman who went on a cross-country trip in July with her fiance, 23-year-old Brian Laundrie, but she never returned.

He was also named a person of interest.

Since covering that, obviously the biggest update to this story is that a body matching Gabby's description has been found in Grand Teton. Now with this, right now, authorities still need to confirm officially whether or not the body is in fact her

But with that, you have the FBI releasing a statement

extending their condolences to her family,

saying that this is an incredibly difficult time for them

the loss of their daughter.

Gabby's father also posting a photo honoring her, saying that she touched the world.

Brian Laundry's family also releasing a statement

calling the news heartbreaking,

saying that the country was mourning Gabby,

but also that is where there's a lot of focus now.

Because Brian's whereabouts are currently unknown.

With his family reportedly last seeing him on Tuesday,

but failing to divulge any information

regarding that to authorities until Friday. Something which has been characterized by a number of people as a family giving Brian a head start.

But when speaking to the authorities saying that they believe that Brian went to Carlton Reserve,

which is located outside of Northport, Florida, an extensive search there taking place over the weekend.
