I was reading up on it yesterday too. Ugh to his family’s statement, and her family’s reply was heartbreaking.

Yes! I’ve been following it since it was first reported and have been meaning to bring it up here. I’m so invested.

I haven’t read much yet, but we all think he “accidentally” killed her and dumped the body somewhere, right?

There were comments on her Instagram that some people thought he had taken over her account and was writing her posts some time around mid august. Her mother last talked to her on 8/25 and received a text from her (?) on 8/27 and 8/30

klong11 and I have been chatting about this today on the true crime board. Brian is definitely guilty. There was a murder of a couple at the same time Gabby and Brian were in Moab as well. Could be related? Could be coincidence.

I haven't spiraled too far but I saw her Spotify suggested maybe he had dumped her, I'm thinking they broke up but had to drive home together and he accidentally on purpose pushed her off a cliff.

You can't just show up by yourself after being on a road trip with your girlfriend and people not ask questions.

That police report… so they both have a mental health disorder, it seems. Also, who is the referenced Christopher at the end? What did he see/hear?
EDIT: police report in the True Crime thread.
EDIT - disorder is redacted. I originally guessed bipolar. Could be something else.

Oh! Nevermind. He was the witness who reported a possible DV situation to the police. Police pulled then over later, determined it was a mental health situation, and put Brian in a hotel for the night.

This is so sad! Fiance is definitely guilty. So, crazy theory I thought about the related case...maybe she witnessed him kill the two ladies?

How did his parents not ask questions when the van (and I am assuming him) showed up at their house and GF was gone? Did he just tell them he left her somewhere between UT and FL?

This is such a bizarre case! But yes, he killed her and pretended to be her on SM/texts. Clearly I am sure about this bc I’m a detective with all the info.

Going West released a podcast episode about this yesterday that was pretty good.
I can’t believe the audacity of this guy and his family.

Can we get a class set of cliff notes for those of us who don't want to go dig up and read the report?

Can we get a class set of cliff notes for those of us who don't want to go dig up and read the report? Gabby - from NY Boyfriend/fiance - lives with Gabby in FL They decide to do a cross-country road trip in July with her van. She youtubes the whole thing, Facetimes her parents often. In early August, Christopher witnesses a situation between Gabby and Brian that looks dangerous. He reports to police. Police pull them over. Both Gabby and Brian have EDIT - a mental health disorder and the cops conclude that the situation was more mental health related than DV. The police find Brian a hotel room for the night and ask that Gabby stay with the van and away from Brian. Just a cooling off period. Gabby tells police that she hit Brian; Brian says he did not hit her. That’s that. Brian allegedly flies back to FL not long after. Gabby stays in a hotel in Utah. Brian returns. Facetime with Gabby’s family ends last week of August. Last text from Gabby to her mom was Aug 30th. Brian shows up in FL with Gabby’s van. Ten days later, on Sep 11, Gabby’s family reports her missing. Brian is refusing to cooperate with anyone. Here we are.

I've been reading the updates. I can't believe his family just thought they could "stay in the background or whatever."

Whose father just moved down to FL from NY? His dad? Her dad. Her mom is still in NY.

Also, the bipolar part I am inferring. The police report says both suffer from a disorder but the name is blacked out. The report goes on to say that Gabby was in a manic state. So, I put two and two together but that doesn’t make me right.
EDIT - I originally guessed bipolar but it’s redacted so I’m editing my posts to explain this. Sorry that I jumped to a conclusion.

So, I put two and two together but that doesn’t make me right. Yeah, I was trying to figure out if it said "anxiety" from the one little dangling bit at the end of the redaction for each mention. The other redaction(s) don't have one.
