Brian Laundrie manhunt: Dog the Bounty Hunter sends in the K-9 unit

Duane "Dog the Bounty Hunter" Chapman on Wednesday contracted a private search and rescue K-9 team to search an island called Egmont Key off the coast of St. Petersburg, Florida, in his search for Brian Laundrie.

A crew of four people carrying backpacks and other supplies left on boats with three K-9s. Chapman confirmed to Fox News that he hired the team for help in looking for Laundrie, a fugitive person of interest in the disappearance and homicide of his fiancé, Gabby Petito.

"We're out here at the island," Chapman said in a video posted to Twitter on Wednesday. "This would be and could be a perfect spot for him to hide, not too many people out here."

I really don't think it would be bright to hide on an island. You've nowhere to run to.

Oh I thought a burner phone was like a track phone with no account. Like the $50 dollar ones that you buy some minutes for? I must be wrong.

Essentially that’s exactly what they are. But you can buy those at Walmart to set up at home. No one is going to AT&T for a burner phone. Doing so pretty much negates the whole purpose of getting a burner. There is nothing discreet about going to AT&T to get a phone or even SIM card. That’s why I think it makes most sense for the purchase to have been a replacement device on a line of service they already had for Brian. /JMO

Brian Laundrie ‘captured in selfie’ while camping with parents days after Gabby Petito believed to have died

A Florida couple who camped beside the Laundrie family days after Gabby Petito is believed to have died say they may have captured Brian Laundrie in a selfie.

Mr Laundrie arrived at the Fort De Soto Park in Pinellas County, with parents Christopher and Roberta on 6 September.

Fort Myers couple Marci and Kenny Newsom told NBC2 they checked into the campsite on the same day and stayed just metres from the Laundries in the neighbouring site.

After scouring their photos, they noticed a man in the background walking across a field with a close-cropped haircut who appears to match Brian Laundrie’s description.

My opinion that's him. It looks exactly like him and what would be the odds of somebody else walking next to their campsite and looking that much like BL when we know BL was stated to be camping in that campground with his parents now confirmed right next door?

 

[Momoffive7]

The only statement I recall seeing from the parents’ lawyer regarding BL whereabouts is “they don’t know where he is and are concerned for him.” (Please correct me if I’m wrong!)
My question is for the lawyers in the group…..
Would there be a legal strategy to not put out a statement asking for him to turn himself in on the warrant? Or asking him to come home?

IMO…as a parent, whether I thought my child guilty or not, I would want him/her to hear a message of support from me. And I also feel like this would be a way of saying we didn’t help him, without having to actually say it, for their defense in the future.
Or maybe they don’t think he is alive?

From the link:

"...it’s the same phone that Brian left home and which the FBI is in possession of,” Bertolino told NewsNation’s Brian Entin."

I take it that it's the phone he supposedly left at home with his wallet.

If you can buy one phone you could buy two. Here's an interesting article regarding burner phones, their limitations and the ease in which they can be bought.

How do K9’s help in a search if there is nothing for them to sniff before hand? Did the parents give something recently worn by BL to the police for their k9’s to sniff? That would show some cooperation and genuine interest in finding him in my opinion.
Where would Mr. Dog get BL’s item for his K9’s to sniff? I don’t think they are looking for a cadaver as he has said he thinks he’s alive and on the move in those little islands.
Why does Dog think the Monster drink is BL’s. Doesn’t anyone else visit those parks other than BL? Could another person have left that can behind? Isn’t BL reported as caring about nature and not wanting to leave garbage behind? Why would he leave garbage and risk getting caught? Aren’t there garbage cans in this park?

Ignore if already mentioned, but weren't Brian and Gabby there in February? Or at least there was a picture on her Instagram that tagged that location back then, I think. Does anyone remember? Likely not really relevant, just curious. MOO.

Yes, they were there. In fact, it was discussed on News Nation with Brian Entin this evening. The emphasis was on the fact Brian knew the Park well as he'd been there in February and then again early this month with his parents.

CARLTON RESERVE. More visible search today. @NorthPortPolice tells@WFLAAllyson they were helping FBI 'focus on areas with water'. There was activity on the east end by Myakkahatchee Creek Park and focused searches from @SarasotaSherifffrom the sky. #brianlaundrie #gabbypetito

True but remember the police were looking in the Carlton Reserve because he was supposed to be there

They all left the park is like they didn't help him leave the home. In what manner did they all leave the park?

 

[ShadyLady]

Good point. The ATT one might have been to establish that phone. And then use it for evidence.

 

[makayla]

Very odd. Since they said Gabby was a homicide victim, can they subpoena her phone records which would include all calls and text messages? So even if he destroyed her phone and his, the records and data would be available to authorities, I hope?

IIRC, didn’t these similar issues come up in the Kelsey Berreth case in CO? I remember laughing at the time at the cell phone stupidity of those involved!

Thank you so much! I missed that completely, which is a little weird, I have his Twitter on alert but didn't watch.

We’ve all likely seen the above by now. I wonder if the phone was intended to be a designated phone used to contact the attorney.

He claimed that law enforcement has that phone that was left behind. Where is his phone he had on the trip?

 

[DieHardChick1]

Have we seen the Laundries put out the garbage yet? How often does their garbage truck go by? If they did put it out, would people or LE go through it looking for info? Would they be allowed to? How long can they go without putting out the garbage? It sure will stink in there.

Good point.

 

[LRinCA]

Sept. 6th through 8th - 3, not FOUR. They knew.

She lived with them - under their roof - but (MOO) their actions seem to indicate they had no problem putting her out of their lives/minds.

Gabby Petito: Florida park surveillance footage part of FBI investigation: LIVE UPDATES

LIVE Update
JUST NOW

Dog the Bounty Hunter finds no conclusive Luandrie evidence on Wednesday
Duane, "Dog the Bounty Hunter," Chapman and his team found no conclusive evidence that Brian Laundrie was on Egmont Key by Wednesday evening.

 

[LadyL]

The first reservation was for 2. The second reservation for the 6th through 8th was for three - not 4.
Why? Because, they all knew there WAS NO 4TH. PERSON.

if your son came home and said he and his g/f broke up or his g/f took off somewhere, would you make a reservation at a campsite for her?

 

[NCHydrangea]

Sept. 6th through 8th - 3, not FOUR. They knew.

Yes, they knew because Brian came home without Gabby on Sept 1 and the reservation for 3 was made on Sept 3.
