Wait, that's twice a week, 46 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 4: So three hundred knew a week to be sorted out 47 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 4: by computer to twelve courtrooms, and one prosecutor would handle 48 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 4: all the state's business. 49 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: So needless to say, I was in. 50 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 4: A hurry, okay, and I needed a death three pool. 51 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 4: I needed to know the details in a murder case. 52 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: Is that so unreasonable? So I call the morgue. 53 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: I get some guy who starts some song and dansing, 54 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 4: go why it's not ready. 55 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, there's a. 56 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 4: Speedy trial demand on this case, and if I don't 57 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 4: try it, it's an automatic acquittal. 58 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: Are you familiar with speedy trial demands? 59 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 4: If the state doesn't try it within two grandjury sessions, 60 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 4: automatic acquittal. And he went, I'm like, he claims I 61 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 4: cursed it him. I don't think that happened, and so 62 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 4: I recall it. 63 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: I hung up. He says he hung up on me. 64 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 4: But that's totally not true.

I want to start with. 85 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: When you knew. 86 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 4: Something had gone horribly wrong. When I found out that 87 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 4: my fiancee was killed, I just thought that there had 88 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 4: been a car accident. I had no idea that some 89 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 4: guy he didn't know shot him five times and destroyed 90 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 4: my life and ended his life. 91 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: So at first I didn't really get it.

Let me start with. 93 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 3: You, Tim, So Nikki had called us and said, have 94 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 3: you heard from Gabby? 95 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: Gabby's mom? 96 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: Gabby's mom, I'm bonus mom. 97 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: We actually say emotional support human just let you know. 98 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 3: That's what the FBI called Jim and I. So the 99 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 3: two Bonus parents were emotionally support humans. But anyway, so 100 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 3: that she called Joe and she's like, have you heard 101 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: from the kids? Have you heard from Brian or Gabby? 102 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 3: I haven't heard from them in a while. And Joe 103 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 3: immediately was on the phone with We knew she was 104 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 3: traveling across country, so Joe was on the phone trying 105 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: to figure out if we could locate her, locate her van. 106 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 4: Is that normal from Nikki? If she can't find well Abby, 107 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 4: then she calls you guys. 108 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, Gabby was traveling, so we didn't know 109 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 3: how much service that she had, so nothing was normal. Yeah, 110 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 3: but yeah, if there was an issue or anything, yea. 111 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 3: And of course Nikki would always call us and see, 112 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 3: like you know, we would work together as four parents 113 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: to try to resolve whatever issue that was going on, 114 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 3: and that was normal. But this was different because we 115 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 3: couldn't find her, We couldn't figure out where she was, 116 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 3: so Joey started calling everybody. At this point, I was 117 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 3: I didn't think it was serious. I was just like, okay, 118 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 3: all right, well she's out there in the camping and 119 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 3: she's exploring national parks and she's having the time of 120 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 3: her life. Maybe she just doesn't have service. 121 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 1: How long had it been? How many days? 122 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 3: That was a couple of days. There was Friday afternoon 123 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: where Joe looked at me and he was like, no, 124 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 3: this is this is serious, like this is something something's 125 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 3: not right. And he had a lot of trouble trying 126 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 3: to even report her missing. They would not report her 127 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 3: missing because in the state of Florida, that's where Gabby 128 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 3: was living, you have to report her missing in her 129 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 3: last known location. At this point we knew her last 130 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 3: no location was in Utah Oat Lake, and in Utah 131 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 3: it is where they reside. So we were having these 132 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: issue of trying to get her reported missing. We tried 133 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 3: to call the laundries. We had a friend in insurance 134 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 3: who kind of got in trouble who gave us their 135 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 3: phone numbers because we did not have their phone numbers. 136 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 4: That is hard to take in that you couldn't get 137 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 4: a hold of them. Nope, guys, if you don't know 138 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 4: Gabby Bottito beautiful inside and outside. 139 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: Takes after her dad. 140 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 3: Well, it's crazy because everybody used to say that she 141 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 3: looked more like me, and I'm like, well, yeah, that's okay, 142 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 3: but I'm like, she's way more beautiful than I. 143 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,239 Speaker 4: But send all this effort and converts her Ford transit 144 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 4: into like a rolling camper and starts on an across 145 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 4: country trip with the boyfriend was really the fiance. 146 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 3: So they did get engaged, okay, but I I don't 147 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: know if it was ever a serious engagement.

When I was 237 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 4: teaching school. 238 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 3: I had one job that I barely worked. I had 239 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 3: some fun. 240 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: But listen. 241 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 3: What happened. 242 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 6: I used to be able to work these cases with Nancy, 243 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 6: just work the work and work them. 244 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 3: And then I had children, and then Nancy had children, 245 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 3: and I'm going to. 246 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 6: Tell you, thirty days later everything about me. 247 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: It did. 248 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 6: It changed how I worked every case, especially involving somebody's child. 249 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 6: But when I tell you I would have gone with him, 250 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 6: I would. 251 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 3: Have gone with him, no question about it. 252 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 6: And I think y'all would have gone with us. 253 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: Is that true? Did you go and knock on the door? 254 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 2: No, I was informed. So we got a call that 255 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: Brian was home with the van and Gabby wasn't there. 256 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: How did you find that? Who told you that? 257 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 2: So when we tried to get Gabby reported, we couldn't. Right, 258 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 2: So it took Nikki begging on the floor of a 259 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: precinct in New York to get her finally reported. And 260 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 2: when the report finally went out, they did a welfare check. 261 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 2: I guess at the house and I was going the 262 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: next morning, and like around midnight, one o'clock in the morning, 263 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: we get a call from Nicky saying Brian's home with 264 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: the van and Gabby's nowhere to be found. And if 265 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 2: I go to the house, I was told I would 266 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 2: be arrested. And so if we didn't have Gabby, me 267 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 2: getting arrested didn't serve a purpose and I needed it. 268 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: Told you arrested, I. 269 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 2: Wouldn't been able to contain it, to be honest with you, 270 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 2: and that was sound advice. You know you have who 271 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 2: when listen, I hope no one is in that situation, 272 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 2: you know, But if you have a job to do, 273 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: and that is to find your loved one, being put 274 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 2: behind bars isn't gonna help. It's only gonna compound the issue. 275 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 2: So but we were fortunate enough to have four of us, 276 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 2: and that's because you can't do this on your own, 277 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 2: like you need support systems and stuff like that, right, So, Nikky, Jim, Tara, 278 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 2: to be honest with you, they deserve all the credit. 279 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 2: I bring nothing to the table its letting you know that, 280 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: but they really do everything. But they kind of kept 281 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: it where it needed to be and where the focus was, 282 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 2: and that was just simply finding Gabby. And that's that's 283 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 2: what we did. 284 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 4: With that. 285 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: Crime stores with Nancy Grace. 286 00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 4: When Gabby's remains or were found, was she identified first. 287 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: By her shirt. 288 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 2: So what had happened was they found her and they 289 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: only had minutes to get to because Jim just happened 290 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: to be in Wyoming. Uh well no, yeah, he Woming. 291 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 2: We were told to stay in New York. Nick Nikki 292 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 2: was told to stay in New York beause that's where 293 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 2: the investigations started out of. But it was being run 294 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 2: through the FBI in Tampa, so we were told to 295 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 2: stay there. Jim said, screw it, I'm going to Wyoming, 296 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 2: so he did, and when they found her, they had 297 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 2: I mean they were running to get to Jim because 298 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 2: a few minutes later it hit the news, you know 299 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 2: what I mean. Once they put the tent up, they 300 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 2: would helicopters and stuff. So they did identify her through 301 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 2: her Bunger shirt, which is a local shop in Sable, 302 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: New York. It was like a surf shop. 303 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 4: Okay, I want to follow through what you're saying to 304 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 4: its logical conclusion, because in a case, when you are 305 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 4: building a case, you get a med thousands of facts, 306 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 4: and I call it marshaling. Marshaling your facts and evidence. 307 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 4: You cannot go into a trial, specifically a felony trial scattershot. 308 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 4: So every fact proves something, and it's your responsibility to 309 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 4: determine what that one fact proves. She was identified by 310 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 4: her shirt? What does that tell me? That tells me 311 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 4: her remains had been left out in dispersed camping, which 312 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 4: is nothing but wild terrain. 313 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: Left there. 314 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 4: In the hopes that animals would destroy her remains and 315 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 4: that she would never be identified. 316 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: Isn't that true, Joe Scott? 317 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 4: So that one piece of evidence tells me the frame 318 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 4: of mind of the killer. Gabby meant nothing to him. 319 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 4: He just left her there like a pizza box. 320 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. 321 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 7: And here here's the bit of irony here when you 322 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 7: when you compare what he had done to Gabby and 323 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 7: where he had left her, and you compare and contrast 324 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 7: that with his remains that are found in that swampy area. 325 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 7: His remains were affected by animal activity in that area, 326 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 7: That which. 327 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 3: Makes me really happy. 328 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, And I have to tell you, you know, having followed 329 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 7: it from the forensics perspective, and those the people that 330 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 7: handled Laundry's remains there did a bang up job, you know, 331 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 7: of having to collect because everything was particulated at that 332 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 7: point in time. Again, disbursement, it has to do with 333 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 7: the water. It also has to do with the animal activity. 334 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 7: I I don't know. I don't want to wax spiritual, 335 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 7: but when I think, you know, for a time, you know, 336 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 7: Gabby became everybody's daughter, and I have a daughter that 337 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 7: looks almost the spitting image of Gabby in it just 338 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 7: broke my heart and generally I can detach myself. As 339 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 7: horrible as the circumstances were, it felt as though to 340 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 7: me that it was almost an angelic presence, you know, 341 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 7: there with her remains. As crazy as that sounds, that's 342 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 7: the way I've always believed it in my in my mind. 343 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 7: But back to the remains and how her remains were 344 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 7: treated by him trasting with how his remains were found, 345 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 7: and the corner out there that handled Gabby's remains did 346 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 7: a fantastic job given the isolated area that was out there. 347 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah see, I could appreciate that. But here's the thing. Yeah, 348 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 2: when we went to go pick up her remains. I 349 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 2: can't prove it, you know what I mean, This is 350 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 2: only my opinion. There was paperwork you have to do, 351 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 2: and Gabby's name was misspelled on the paperwork. So he's like, 352 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 2: all right, give me a few and I'm going to 353 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 2: go redo the paperwork. It goes like ten minutes go by, 354 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: he comes back, it's wrong again. Another ten minutes go by, 355 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 2: he comes back and it's finally right, going through the 356 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: paperwork whatever. So there for like a half hour before 357 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 2: we get her remains. It's my opinion that he tipped 358 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 2: off the some reporter for some outlet where, because there's 359 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 2: now a picture of me leaving the corner with her remains. 360 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: So it's great of a job that they might have done. 361 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 2: I don't think it. I think that the just had 362 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 2: bad intentions, you know, in terms of getting money and 363 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 2: stuff like that, and that's a shame because that's not 364 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 2: something you want to see. 365 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 7: One other point adjacent to this that I found fast 366 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 7: Enats talking to Cheryl about this backstage, is that that 367 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 7: corner released a manner of death, which there are five 368 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 7: before a cause of death was ever released, and generally 369 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 7: it does not happen. I'm not saying that that's you know, 370 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 7: bad and any necessarily, it's just odd because normally you 371 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 7: want to establish the physical funds. 372 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: That's clear for our listeners. 373 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 4: Cause of death is stabbing, choking, poison, asphyxiation, ligatory manual stanulation. 374 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 4: Manner of death is homicide, natural causes, undetermined suicide. I 375 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 4: mean it's different, it's too different categories. But to me, 376 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 4: the fact that her remains were left out in the 377 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 4: middle of nothing. 378 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: I've camped out there and hiked out there. 379 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: There is nothing, but the animals didn't disturb either. 380 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 4: Right, I'm talking about his frame of mind. What can 381 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 4: I prove based on that? 382 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: I get it, just such a callous disregard of her. 383 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 3: He panicked well, and the fact that he came home 384 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: and his mom knew, They knew she was out there, 385 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 3: they knew it. So how is a mother you're okay 386 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 3: with that? How is a mother you know that you're 387 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 3: a woman that's supposed to be your daughter in law, 388 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 3: that has parents, that has siblings. How is a parent 389 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 3: do you do that? Because I know I would probably 390 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 3: kill my son right then and there. 391 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 4: How many days passed from the time Laundry came home. 392 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: Two. No, they sent the money. 393 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 2: Oh, oh nineteen getting home. 394 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 3: No, so he sent the money. I think it was 395 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 3: like September one or second when Laundry get home. 396 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: He got home on the first, the first, Yeah, and 397 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 2: he found on the September nineteen, September nineteen. 398 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: So for almost the entire month of December. 399 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 3: September, yes, thank you. 400 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 4: Of September, the laundries let them hang in the wind 401 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 4: looking for Gabby after they had already paid a defense attorney. 402 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,479 Speaker 2: They actually went. They actually went. 403 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 3: They actually went camping and had s'mores. 404 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: Oh, yes, please tell them. 405 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 3: They also went camp They also did like a planting 406 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: tree type of thing that I don't know what was it. 407 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 3: They uh, a planting class. It was like a couple 408 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 3: hours that they took, which was weird, like you're how 409 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 3: do you do that?

They went on a camping trip. I 415 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 2: think it was September fifth through the seventh. They changed 416 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 2: the I guess you had to make reservations and whatnot, 417 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 2: and they kind of changed the reservations because Gavey is 418 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: no longer there. And the sister, and this is the 419 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 2: part that blows my mind. Right, I'm gonna say this out. 420 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: So the sister, Cassie Laundry, has a couple kids, all right, 421 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 2: and those kids I feel really bad for because they 422 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 2: did nothing wrong and they have to go through lives 423 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: knowing that their uncle was a pos. I'm gonna use 424 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 2: that from that one, by the way, I'll want you 425 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 2: know that. And the mom let her grandkids hang out 426 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 2: with someone who just killed who's supposed to be the 427 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 2: love of their life. Would you guys do that? By 428 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: showy hands? Would anybody allow that to happen? Yet? 429 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 4: Like no, that is disgusting to be trying to get 430 00:26:55,280 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 4: past the smores. R Rember, I did buy a shirt 431 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 4: which tells me the state of her remains. 432 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: They couldn't say how to do the shirt. 433 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 4: They're lying there in dispersed camping and Laundry's family. He 434 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 4: gets home on September one and they go on a 435 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 4: camping trip. I wonder if they thought their house was 436 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 4: bugged or something. But they go on a camping trip 437 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 4: and sit around the campfire and go hiking and have s'mores. 438 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 3: Can I jump in? 439 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: What? 440 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 3: Can I jump in? 441 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: Yes? 442 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 6: Remember she changed the reservation. 443 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, it was supposed to be two. 444 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 3: They went to three. 445 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 6: I wholeheartedly believed they were going to sit around and 446 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 6: plan his escape. 447 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 7: Right, I think answer for Tom. I remember being on 448 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 7: crime Stories when you we had actually speculated that they 449 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 7: had purchased some kind of cheap kayak get him into 450 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 7: the waterway, remember this, and that he was going to 451 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 7: you know, kind of vanish into the population in Tampa 452 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 7: and maybe get into a homeless area. We speculated about 453 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 7: this fort. 454 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 1: To that, We looked at routes how he could go. 455 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: They did get new phones, new simcards, knew everything, you 456 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 2: know a couple of days before. Doesn't we have a 457 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 2: conspiracy theory, all of us? Oh yeah, there's a video 458 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 2: of them going to at and T getting. 459 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 4: New phones, found sim cards, still plan his escape. 460 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 3: But here so well, now, Bertolino, they're a lawyer in 461 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: New York is a real estate attorney. 462 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 2: He's not a criminal attorney. 463 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 3: He's not a criminal attorney real estate. So was they 464 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 3: trying to get the escape where he was going to 465 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 3: stay in one of his houses. 466 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 2: See, I don't think an escape was ever in the cards. 467 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 2: I really don't in all honestly, like, I don't, And 468 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 2: this is my opinion. I think the four of us 469 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: share it. You know, I don't think Brian killed himself. 470 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 2: I we all think the mom did it. 471 00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 3: Yes, we do have. 472 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 2: I don't have the stones to do it himself. 473 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 4: Let me just say, no one has been named a 474 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 4: person of interest or a suspect. 475 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: But I did say. 476 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 4: Everyone has presumed innocent until praving Gilts. 477 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 2: I did say, this is my opinion, all right, And yeah, 478 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 2: I don't think he had the stones to do it. 479 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 2: I mean when you add this, so, there's some things 480 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: that just don't add up to me. 481 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,479 Speaker 4: You mean, like how they went walk when everybody had 482 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 4: been looking for laundry's remains and they walked. 483 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: I'm talking before that.

This is a good 491 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 2: distance from their house. 492 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: It's going to leave him out there. 493 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 2: So, yeah, he doesn't have his keys, he doesn't have 494 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 2: a wallet, he doesn't have a phone. How is he 495 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 2: going to get home?

In this case, what other evidence exists to 530 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 4: suggest that they took part in a cover up. 531 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 2: Or is there any Well, I'll tell you how we 532 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 2: got there, and this is because of their attorney, Stephen Berdollino. 533 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: It's how we got there, and this is why when 534 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: you commit a crime, you don't hire a real estate attorney. 535 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 2: I just want that to be sounded. Vice. We had 536 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 2: our attorney, Patrick Riley, who, by the way, is an 537 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 2: amazingly handsome guy. I think my wife would leave me 538 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 2: for him. He wasn't married because she listen, he's tall, 539 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 2: he's handsome, he's really tan. It's fantastic anyway. So he 540 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 2: was looking for a reason of how to bring that suit, 541 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 2: because what happened was when everything was done, the FBI said, 542 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 2: we want you to go after them civilly because you 543 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 2: can get depositions, and those depositions we could use because 544 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 2: they would be public. So we said absolutely, but to 545 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 2: build a criminal case. 546 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 7: So he needed. 547 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 2: A reason to go after them. And what he went 548 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 2: after them with is the words from Stephen Bertolino that 549 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 2: we hope Abbey's reunited with their family. By the way, 550 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,719 Speaker 2: in court, they turned around and said, oh, we never 551 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 2: meant her living. It could have been her corpse that 552 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: we met. That was that's what they said in court. 553 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: By the way, those mastards right, screw them. But it 554 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: was because of their attorney that's what we got those depositions, 555 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 2: and they thought it was funny In those depositions, Like 556 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: the mom was laughing, Roberta was laughing, like it was 557 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: a freaking joke. 558 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 3: What everything just so that a whole burn after reading 559 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 3: letter that she had wrote to Brian. We don't know 560 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 3: when she said. It was right before the trip we have, 561 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 3: we don't We still don't know when. She was laughing 562 00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 3: The entire just a joke. Everything in that letter, me burying, 563 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 3: you know, helping you hide a body. Oh, that's it's 564 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 3: it's a children's book, from a children's book. 565 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: ROBERTA. 566 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 4: Laundry wrote a letter to Brian Laundry offering to help 567 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 4: bury or hide a body, and the letter said burn 568 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 4: after reading. 569 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: And according to ROBERTA. Laundry, what was the excuse? 570 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 3: It was from a children Oh yeah, it was a 571 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 3: children's book. So it was just an inside joke that 572 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 3: they had, you know, just something really funny. And but 573 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 3: her and Brian were having difficulties before they before they 574 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 3: Gabby and him left on the trip, so she was 575 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 3: writing it to him to try to let him know 576 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 3: how much she loved him. 577 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 4: I've never offered to burn a body for my bury 578 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,720 Speaker 4: a body, and I mean I never thought to say something. 579 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: So it's like Norman Bates like that she would wash 580 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 2: him in a tub and stuff, like as a teenager. 581 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 2: It's horrible. 582 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 3: She is that was the mastermind? Like she was just 583 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 3: just sitting there at a deposition and they wanted us 584 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 3: to feel sorry for them. 585 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: Why do you say that? 586 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 3: Because they said it. Berlina was like they had pitchforks 587 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 3: in front of our house. There were so many people 588 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 3: with pitchforks, and you know that was so unfair to 589 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 3: us that they Why were they doing that to us? 590 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 3: Are you kidding? Why didn't we go to them and 591 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 3: try to, you know, have a relationship with them. 592 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: Where does any legal actions stand now? 593 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 3: Right now? Will the civil cases done? We had to 594 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 3: settle because of a law in Florida where if they 595 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 3: offer a settlement and you go to trial, if you 596 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 3: turn it down, and you turn it down and you 597 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 3: go to trial and they the jury awards you only 598 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 3: seventy five percent of that, you are you have to 599 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 3: pay all of their legal fees. Yeah, today, it's kind 600 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 3: of a way to make you settle so you don't 601 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 3: go to trial. Then there's the other issue of freedom 602 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,760 Speaker 3: of speech, where they would have appealed and we probably 603 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 3: would have lost. We got the information we wanted. We 604 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 3: wanted them to be deposed. We wanted to see what 605 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 3: they were going to say in the depositions. We got all. 606 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 3: We got those answers and that's all we wanted. We 607 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 3: Once we settled with them, it was like a huge 608 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 3: weight kind of lifted off my shoulders. I just want 609 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,879 Speaker 3: to forget about them. I don't want to think about them. 610 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 3: I have really crazy thoughts of like what I would 611 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 3: like to do to them, but. 612 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 2: Sometimes want to lay that out because I'm annoying, is anything. 613 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 3: So we after we got the depositions, we sent it 614 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 3: over to the FBI because Christopher Laundry had stated that 615 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 3: Gabby was gone in the depositions and that you know 616 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 3: she They thought she just ran off and that's you 617 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 3: know why. But they did not do anything that was 618 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 3: that was it. 619 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 1: Did you guys have any idea that Gabby was being beaten? 620 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 2: It's other than the mo app stop. 621 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 8: No. 622 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 2: To be honest with you, we did. 623 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 3: I did not like Brian why. I had co signed 624 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 3: a car for Gabby before she even reunited with Brian 625 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 3: and they started dating again. This is when we were 626 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 3: trying to get her to go to school and she 627 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: needed a car, and I was like, I'll co sign 628 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 3: this car for you. And but you're making the payments, 629 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 3: you're going to school, and you're making the payments. I'm 630 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 3: just here, God forbid, you need something to help. And 631 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 3: you know she wouldn't have got the loan otherwise. Well, 632 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 3: when her and Brian left to moved down to Florida 633 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 3: after their first trip, pretty much all payments had stopped. 634 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 3: She stopped making car payments. She wound up returning the 635 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 3: car early to get the van and stuck me with 636 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 3: a thirty two hundred dollars bill to return the car early. 637 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 3: At this point, I'm like, why isn't Brian helping her. 638 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 3: They're a couple, they're engaged to be married. Like there's 639 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 3: some there's something not right there going on all these trips, 640 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 3: and I just felt something was off. I had felt 641 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 3: something I have. I guess like visions a lot. You 642 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 3: know you were talking about the spiritual aspects. I do 643 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 3: get visions and sometimes they come true, and there's a 644 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 3: god of questions regarding that. 645 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 4: Do either of you feel that you have felt Gabby's 646 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 4: presence or communicated with her in any way since she 647 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 4: went to heaven? 648 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 3: Yeah? 649 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: What happened. 650 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 3: I guess signs from her all the time. I actually so, 651 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 3: I felt her presence when we're sleeping. I would feel 652 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 3: like she was going to try to walk into our 653 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 3: room all the time and want to hug us. And 654 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 3: I actually went to a psychic medium and they were like, 655 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 3: you need to just go to sleep so she can, 656 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 3: And they had no idea that I felt that they 657 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 3: had done. I didn't say it during this, no one 658 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 3: would know that.

So like one town will have an amazing 690 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 3: program and they're working with the DV Organization, but the 691 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 3: next town over is not, and the CV. 692 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,359 Speaker 1: Foundation doing well. 693 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 2: We will have that's on who you ask, because because 694 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 2: it's four of us. Right, So Jim wrote an amazing 695 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 2: first responder program where he goes around teaching firefighters and 696 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 2: emt s as you know, on signs of domestic violence 697 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: and how to spot those and give information where to 698 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 2: go if you're in that situation, because that's the number 699 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 2: one thing anyone here like see. That might be the 700 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 2: wrong audience for this, but if you're in a domestic 701 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 2: violent situation that's non violent, does anyone not know where 702 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: to go? And don't be afraid. You can raise your 703 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 2: hand if you if you don't know where to call, 704 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 2: we always say the National Domestic Violence Hotline one eight 705 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy nine nine safe is the number that 706 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 2: we like to give out. It's a great starting point. 707 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 2: But most people don't know where to go, all right, 708 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 2: So Jim, he wrote that program, he's going around. Matter 709 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 2: of fact, I think it just went into the fdi 710 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 2: C where it's going to get credited for it. So 711 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 2: that's actually the Jim is absolutely hopefully well. 712 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,959 Speaker 3: He's a first responder. Yeah, and that's what he built 713 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 3: his that's his career and he never received any type 714 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 3: of DV training in his twenty years O wow of 715 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 3: being active surveyed on. 716 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 4: And that's so critical here because in Moab, where Gabby 717 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 4: was alive with laundry, he domestically assaulted her. 718 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: He slapped her. People saw him do it on main Street. 719 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 4: And if he would do that in public, literally on 720 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 4: main street, right in the face, what would he do 721 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 4: behind closed doors. So when they were pulled over after that, 722 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 4: Gabby was saying, like, it's really kind of my fault 723 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 4: because I started it, maybe verbally, maybe she said something, 724 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 4: and then she got beaten and threatened that he was 725 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 4: going to leave with her car and leave her strand, 726 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 4: and she was trying to get back in. I mean, 727 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 4: that is domestic abuse. And some have the cops named 728 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 4: her the aggressor. She's like this big and this big around. 729 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 1: And she's the aggressor. 730 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 2: He wasn't much bigger, you know. 731 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and the state of Utah, they were 732 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 3: supposed to be utilizing the lethality assessment. They had an 733 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 3: hour and a half with her, they could have utilized it. 734 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:22,280 Speaker 3: It just was not mandated where now it is mandated 735 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 3: in the state of Utah, which we. 736 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 2: Got the law changed.

Then we also changed 740 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 2: how missing persons are reported in Florida. And we also 741 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 2: did in national what's called Help Find the Missing Act 742 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 2: for for missing people.

My niece, Hailey Rayley, was 799 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:33,720 Speaker 9: murdered by her husband April of this year. I consider 800 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 9: what she was going through was domestic abuse. It wasn't physical, 801 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 9: but it was psychological and her husband had threatened to 802 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 9: commit suicide for maybe a year or two. We don't 803 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 9: know the whole story.

But my question is 832 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 5: where do you think the case really would have played 833 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 5: out if social media wasn't a part of it. 834 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: I don't think we would have found it. 835 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 3: I don't know. 836 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, to be honest with you, I really don't when 837 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,360 Speaker 2: you see and I'm not putting the you know, the 838 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,320 Speaker 2: blame on the police. I won't do that because, to 839 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 2: be honest with you, I think they're very overworked, especially 840 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 2: when you start talking small communities like in Moab. There's 841 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 2: nineteen officers that in that precinct. 842 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 3: Matter of fact, I want to just say, there's nineteen officers. 843 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 3: All of them are new except for one. 844 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 2: Right, you guess the one. 845 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 3: The one. 846 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 2: But when it comes to that, I don't think we 847 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 2: would have found her. And that's that's my opinion because 848 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 2: it was twenty five hundred miles and the way they 849 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 2: handle missing persons sometimes without the FBI getting involved, I 850 00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 2: don't think the jurisdictions would have laid. 851 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 3: So yeah, if you're ever in a situation, use those 852 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 3: used social media. 853 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 4: I mean that's how as I was saying, red blue 854 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,760 Speaker 4: and the thing is there online their social media handle 855 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 4: saw the transit went that was like Gabby's. 856 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: They have never met again. 857 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,399 Speaker 3: The day after Gabby was found, it's it's snow, snow, 858 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 3: so we might not have Yeah, they would have stopped. 859 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, it wouldn't have seen her until the 860 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 2: snow thought, so, Yeah, answer your question, I don't think 861 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:53,759 Speaker 2: we would have, and it's because of you that we did. 862 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,800 Speaker 2: So I thank all of you everyone to be honest 863 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 2: with you, and that's kind of the reason why we 864 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: do what we do now, is kind of payback the 865 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 2: help that you guys gave us. 866 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 3: But we also have tools on our website. So if 867 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 3: your loved one ever does go missing, we have a 868 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 3: list of tools of how to try to get their 869 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 3: story out as much as possible. 870 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 2: And because you're on social media, I'd like to give 871 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 2: advice to everyone else here as well. Take as many 872 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:23,799 Speaker 2: photos and videos, yes, because in the news or in TikTok, right, 873 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: because that's I love TikTok. By the way, it's like 874 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 2: mindless to me, but it's also me, you think. At 875 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 2: the same time, you learn a lot. But the movements 876 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 2: and the body language and the sound of their voice 877 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,880 Speaker 2: helps sell their story. And that sounds horrible, like it 878 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 2: sounds really really miserable to say it like that, but 879 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 2: that's what gets it on the mainstream media to create 880 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 2: that awareness. So annoy your kids and take the videos, 881 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 2: and I do believe it can help if needed. 882 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, and we have those memories. 883 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, and I want to piggyback on that because one 884 00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 6: thing Nancy and I always do on every investigation re 885 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 6: and post behavior. Gabby was fantastic about posting video. She 886 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 6: was fantastic about taking you know, texting and calling and 887 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 6: checking in, she sent postcards. 888 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: It all stopped. 889 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. That's very probative, Nancy. 890 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 7: If I could say one thing, the line share. You know, 891 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 7: you hear about a lot of cases in the news. 892 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:27,800 Speaker 7: We cover them, you know, and if it doesn't catch 893 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 7: the media's eye, there's so many homicides that occur that 894 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 7: no one ever, it doesn't make it through one cycle 895 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 7: of the news. 896 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 2: Here's a little truth for you. 897 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 7: The line's share of homicides that occur out there are 898 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 7: not stranger on stranger deaths. You know, they paint it 899 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 7: like somebody coming out of a dark alley they're going 900 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 7: to attack in Yes, those who have the line share 901 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,719 Speaker 7: of homicides occur with a person you're in relationship with. 902 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 7: They're rooted into astic violence. That's the line shared. The 903 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 7: ones that we say, yeah, almost ninety percent, and it's 904 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 7: people don't really grasp that. That's why what the potitoes 905 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 7: are doing this idea of getting at the grassroots relative 906 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 7: to the insidious problem. You're literally, and I know this 907 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:24,759 Speaker 7: sounds so roque, but you're literally saving lives by doing this. 908 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 7: If you can head these things off in the future, 909 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 7: people like me that work for medical examiners and corners offices, 910 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 7: we don't have to show up. Wouldn't that be a 911 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 7: beautiful thing that you can take another path? Perhaps, you know, 912 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 7: you don't want people like me showing up, you know, 913 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 7: And unfortunately things get to this point where they boil 914 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 7: over and to those people in Moab, you know, they 915 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 7: had an opportunity to identify at that moment in time, 916 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 7: and in my opinion, they failed miserably. 917 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,360 Speaker 2: They've actually so you and NICKI were at a conference 918 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 2: where they came to you afterwards. 919 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 3: And you guys were talking to them and yeah, so 920 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:05,439 Speaker 3: there's a new officer that is in Moab and he's 921 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 3: really trying to revamp their their department. 922 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:10,399 Speaker 2: They're taking the right. 923 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 1: Step taking question, Yeah, yeah, what's your question? 924 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 3: My question is you mentioned that you didn't like Brian 925 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 3: very much. I'm wondering what. 926 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 9: Was the relationship before they moved to Florida, and do 927 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 9: you believe his moved to Florida with her was to 928 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 9: alienate her from the family. 929 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 3: So before she moved down to Florida, they took a 930 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,880 Speaker 3: cross country trip. They weren't dating at the time they 931 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:40,240 Speaker 3: started dating. I guess on that said trip. The second 932 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 3: they came back is when they moved down to Florida. 933 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 3: And at that point, yes, I do one hundred percent 934 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 3: believe he was trying to isolate her. I had had 935 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 3: a conversation with Gabby and I was like, listen, I 936 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,439 Speaker 3: understand you want to go, and that's great, I said, 937 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 3: but you just took a trip. Maybe try to make 938 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 3: some money before you go down. Plan it so that 939 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 3: you're not just coming going down there and living with 940 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 3: him and his parents and his family. And the next 941 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 3: day they were they were already on their way, which. 942 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 4: Is classic and domestic abuse to alienate typically the woman 943 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 4: from her family and support grate. 944 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 1: So, yes, that happens. 945 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,919 Speaker 3: See, that's something I didn't know, so never had any 946 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,360 Speaker 3: you know, prevention classes. Never when I went to school, 947 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,720 Speaker 3: there was nothing that they didn't teach about domestic violence. 948 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 3: So that's what we're trying to change now because everybody 949 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:36,759 Speaker 3: should learn the red flags. Everybody should learn to teach 950 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 3: their children not to be abusers as well. It's not 951 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 3: just about being abusive or you know, learning the red 952 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 3: flags not being abusive. 953 00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 2: If you have children in schools, talk to your schools 954 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 2: about these programs, because there are schools that won't allow 955 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 2: us to mention certain things. Like we went down to 956 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,760 Speaker 2: a state and they're like, well you can't mention sex. 957 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 2: I'm like, so we can talk. And I don't care 958 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,720 Speaker 2: where you sit with you know, politics or other stuff 959 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 2: like I honestly, I just don't care about it. You know, 960 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 2: I care about treating people right, you know, be nice 961 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:09,760 Speaker 2: to people. As long as you do that, you should 962 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 2: be good. And the fact that we don't teach our 963 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,280 Speaker 2: children everyone was it's life skill. We teach life skills 964 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,840 Speaker 2: like how to cook, how to sew, how about staying alive. 965 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 2: You know, it's a life skill. So these things should 966 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 2: be taught. So if you have talk to your children, 967 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 2: see if they if they're learning about it. If they're not, 968 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 2: send them to our website. Find a different website. I 969 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,160 Speaker 2: don't care which one you go. It doesn't have to 970 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 2: be us. Just find a program and talk to them, 971 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 2: maybe show them the documentary, you know, and be like 972 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 2: this can happen to anyone. 973 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 3: On our website, we have the Gabby Potito Alliance where 974 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 3: it's again together we can So there's other organizations on 975 00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:49,800 Speaker 3: there that you can. You can look on their websites 976 00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 3: to see if there's any tools that might suit what 977 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 3: you need. 978 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 2: This is a really cool program called Purple One. I 979 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 2: love talking about this program. It's got nothing to do 980 00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 2: with our foundation. It's a really good show. What they 981 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 2: do is if you have a storefront, they'll they'll teach you. 982 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 2: They'll do like a four hour class. 983 00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 3: I think it's a bystander program where it's a four 984 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 3: hour class. It's all online. It's free where they'll teach 985 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 3: you because you might not know what to do.
