Properly, now we now have a greater thought why police weren’t taking a look at Brian Laundrie for the homicide of a newlywed couple discovered useless shortly after he and Gabby Petito rolled by means of city.
For many who don’t know, newlyweds Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner (above) have been discovered useless of a number of gunshot wounds at a campsite simply outdoors Moab, Utah on August 18. Not solely was Moab the city the place Gabby and Brian have been stopped by police on that notorious home dispute name, the Moonflower Group Co-Op the place Kylen labored was the spot the place Gabby and Brian had their struggle. That was on August 12, lower than per week earlier than the killing. And we knew Gabby and Brian stayed in a city a number of days…
OK, it was all the time extra of a weird coincidence that Brian and Gabby’s ill-fated highway journey occurred to intersect with one other surprising homicide. However in fact loads of sleuths, web {and professional}, don’t purchase the idea of coincidences — and instantly begin on the lookout for hyperlinks.

However proper across the time the FBI put their playing cards on the desk, revealing the proof they’d that Brian was for certain liable for his fiancée’s demise, the Grand County Sheriff’s Workplace dropped their very own press launch making it clear the investigation within the double homicide was ongoing — however that Laundrie was NOT an individual of curiosity. The announcement talked about exculpatory “digital transmission proof” — presumably their telephones confirmed they weren’t within the space on the time of the killings. However there’s one thing else: the cops have been already on the lookout for somebody.
The potential suspect, in accordance with new paperwork obtained by The Solar, had been pulled over by police only a day after the murders. Based on the police report, the interplay with the person was “so unnerving that the veteran regulation enforcement officer determined to not write the dashing ticket as he didn’t need to take his eyes off of him.”
Whoa. Keep in mind, the only factor we’ve persistently needed to go on on this case is that the man whom Kylen and Crystal informed mates had been hanging round their campsite was “creepy.” (Typically cited as one other hyperlink to Brian as witnesses used the identical phrase to explain him.) Kylen even reportedly informed mates on the Tavern bar, the final place they have been seen, that in the event that they turned up useless it was due to this “creepy man.” It feels like this man undoubtedly suits that invoice if he was so scary, the cops didn’t dare give him a dashing ticket!
Chills!
Based on a search warrant, newly unsealed on Tuesday, the police tracked down the person and spoke to him the place he labored — the Moonflower co-op market! The identical place Kylen labored!
He informed police he was new and had by no means really labored with the deceased — however police later discovered he had been hanging round there lengthy earlier than he bought a job and nearly definitely had interacted along with her. He was stated to have been inappropriate with workers, giving one cashier a rose.
When the person — who was 27, only a bit older than 23-year-old Brian — couldn’t account for his whereabouts on the estimated time of the murders, police discovered the place he would “usually sleep at” and recovered two blankets and a jacket with what seemed like blood on them.
That location the place he slept? Kylen and Crystal would have needed to cross it to get to their campsite. Whoa.

There have been two different search warrants unsealed, a seek for one of many couple’s lacking telephones, and a request for surveillance footage from the Tavern.
The warrants have been sealed initially, per the Grand County legal professional’s workplace, as a result of their launch to the general public doubtlessly posed a “critical obstacle to the investigation.” It’s unclear why the warrants have been unsealed now — sadly it might imply as a result of nothing got here of them. The “creepy man” has apparently not been arrested or his identify would have been made public report.
Hate to consider a man who might scare market cashiers and visitors cops alike nonetheless being on the market. What do YOU consider this new proof??
