Gabby Petito case: Brian Laundrie’s mum said in letter she’d help ‘dispose of a body’
- The undated note was found in an envelope marked ‘burn after reading’; Laundrie’s mother says she wrote it before the couple’s fatal road trip
- Laundrie had allegedly confessed to killing Petito before his own death, and her body was found in a Wyoming national park
A copy of the letter Brian Laundrie’s mother allegedly instructed him to “burn after reading” has been given to the parents of his late fiancée, Gabby Petito, whom the FBI says Laundrie admitted to killing before his own death in 2021.
A Florida judge ruled the undated letter written by Roberta Laundrie can be included as evidence in the Petitos’ civil lawsuit against the Laundries and their lawyer, according to local news station WFLA, which obtained a copy.
“Nothing can make me stop loving you, nothing will or could ever divide us no matter what we do, or where we go or what we say – we will always love each other,” the letter reportedly reads.
“If you’re in jail, I will bake a cake with a file in it. If you need to dispose of a body, I will show up with a shovel and garbage bags.”
The letter was reportedly inside an envelope with “burn after reading” written on it. The Laundries’ lawyer claims the FBI already had the letter when authorities discovered Laundrie’s remains in a Florida park in October 2021. The Petitos’ lawyer contends the letter was found with his body.
