My one comment on the Gabby Petito case: it is 2021, and people are still falling for female hysteria shit. I am TIRED.
Brian Laundrie screams textbook narcissistic abuser. Of course she was going to fight trying to get back into HER vehicle. And the police fell ate his schtick.

If you haven't watched the bodycam video, I highly suggest you do. It's an hour long so you can skip the boring parts of people walking around, but pay special attention to the stories he gives and how he contradicts himself repeatedly.

I haven’t yet. Tbh, this is bringing up lingering trauma of my own. Thank you for describing it to me though.
