Laudry wrote in part in the notebook: “I am sorry for all those who will be affected. Gabby was the love of my life, but I know she is much adored. I am very sorry for her family because I love them. “
On another page, he writes that Petito is injured and is trying to help her.
“I don’t know how irritable Gabby (sic) was, but she was in a lot of pain. I ended her life, I thought it was merciful, it was what she wanted, but now I see all the mistakes I made. I panicked. I was shocked. But from the moment I decided, I took away her pain, I knew I couldn’t go on without her, “he wrote.
The cause of Petitto’s death was found to be strangulation, and the manner of death was murder, said Teton County Coroner Dr. Brent Blue.
Lawrence’s family lawyer, Stephen Bertolino, said he released the pages of the notebook after meeting with the FBI and a lawyer for Petito’s family, where they collected Petito and Landry’s personal belongings.
“As part of this return of property to the FBI, I received Brian’s notebook. “I would like to share with the public the note that the FBI hinted at on January 21, 2022, that Brian took responsibility for the death of Gabby Petito,” Bertolino said.
Bertolino dropped eight pages from the notebook and their order in the notebook, which has been restored, is unknown.
On the last page, Laudry wrote: “I killed myself by this creek in the hope that the animals (sic) could tear me apart. That can make some of her family happy. ”
The last words on the page, written in a different pen than the previous ones, said, “Please take all my things. Gabby hated people carrying garbage.
CNN contacted the FBI and the Petito family’s lawyer for comment.
