It will be kind of ironic if Brian's sister ends up with a charge for lying to the FBI. Dang indeed.dang, does anyone in that family tell the truth?
NORTH PORT, Fla. (NewsNation Now) — Brian Laundrie’s sister, Cassie Laundrie, may have seen her brother in the days following his return to Florida with Gabby Petito, despite her previous comments.
Cassie Laundrie said last month she had not spoken to her brother since he returned to Florida without Petito on Sept. 1.
“I haven’t been able to talk to him,” Laundrie told ABC News last month. “I wish I could talk to him.”
However, NewsNationNow.com reporter Brian Entin exclusively confirmed that Cassie Laundrie may have been at the Fort De Soto campground at the same time the rest of the family in early September.
“To my knowledge, Cassie went for a day,” Laundrie family attorney Steven Bertolino confirmed to Entin.
When Bertolino was asked whether Cassie Laundrie was at the campground at the same time as her brother, he responded, “idk” meaning “I don’t know.”

Cassie may be the one that gets the family to spill what they know, even BL may not want her in trouble. JMOIt will be kind of ironic if Brian's sister ends up with a charge for lying to the FBI. Dang indeed.
MOO
FYI - flightaware shows N415RP helicopter circling the Cocke County, TN area for last hour or so. Not sure any details or whether it is related to BL but the location, altitude and flight path appears to be a focused search pattern.
In NC here, and very confused. IMOO, grandparents live in Cary, NC, which is roughly a three-hour drive to Boone, NC and the AT. New Bern, NC is on the opposite side of the state, on the Neuse River off the coast.
That's a WOW. The sister clearly said in her interview that she had not seen BL. Is this attorney throwing everyone under the bus?NEW: “To my knowledge Cassie went for a day.”

I think one of the campground pics showed what was likely their camper and it was off the truck. So if they disconnected it, it's possible BL was driving around in it while she visited her parents there. But the question if that's true is why was BL away from the campground all day...why go camping at all if you're going to be driving around the area you already live in the entire time?If we go strictly off of what the attorney said, BL went camping with his parents the 6th through the 8th, he went and came home with them, and his sister also went for a day, there is no way she didn’t see or speak to BL. Somebody is lying.
Here's a thought about status of BL...and i know it's been discussed but the simplicity of why i think he's alive really hit me.
If he had succumbed to the elements, as a parent I'd be marching right into where ever I 'last saw' him to find him.
Mothers take bullets for their kids, will walk across fire, and any other adage you can find out there.
No, it's so ridiculously elementary, IF you thought your child was being digested by a big gator or a wild boar; you would not casually leave the house and go to walmart. You are paralyzed with grief and worry.
JMO.
He should have the book thrown at him. Actually he's probably passed and that doesn't bother me.......... just so they obtain proof. I would hate for him and his family and his real estate lawyer to have years to blame things on Gabby. Maybe let him out of jail for 8 months with one of those leg monitors. Nah, that would never happen.What are you guys going for with the van ownership questions? Are you looking for the FBI to charge him with grand theft auto?
Do we have any experts on here that could chime in? From the traffic stop, was there any path to a healthy situation for Gabby? Could anyone have done anything?

Like this. Why would you say this? Why would you "confirm" facts to the press - who have no right or need to know? Oh, I know: to keep YOUR name out there. To have people continue to talk about YOU.
I thought Brian had a different attorney. Wasn't there a document posted in the last thread with the name of the lawyer?
ETA I just went back and checked the document and it actually lists the name of the prosecutor. Surely he must have a separate attorney by now? It's never really been clear if he is representing Brian or the parents.
Agreed. This attorney is making a ton of mistakes and I would imagine as a RE attorney he really has no business trying to handle this case even as a (horrible) spokesperson for the family. MOOHere's the thing. I have clients who truly do not seem to know the difference between the truth and a lie. I largely ignore what they tell me and look at the data, written communications, and anything else objective we can find to piece together the story and then try to get that client's "side" of it to see what really happened.
I make it my duty to make sure those clients never speak to the press. Never release "just one statement to get MY SIDE of the story out." Because I, as their trusted advisor, know that story is likely full of exaggerations or lies that would not take that long to pull apart. If my client released some statement against the advice of counsel, the last thing I would do is release my own statement to "correct" it because then you are TELLING the world that your client is a liar.
So constantly texting the media with bits of information that objectively contradict with other public information (like when the Mustang was picked up, if Cassie saw BL) is really bordering on malpractice. I have never seen anything like it either in my own practice or in following other cases.
