If he's out in that shit alone, he better have good survival skills. Otherwise he just went out there to die.

Funny thing is, from what we know now at least, they could find him, he could just say "talk to my lawyer" and then head back out into the woods again if he wanted. I mean I'm sure they'll bring him in and question him, but he doesn't have to say anything.
We don't have all the information, I mean there could be a criminal case in the works, but based on what we know and what the police are saying, Brian is still just missing.
I called the cops on my brother when one of his friends had a crisis of conscience and called me to tell me he was planning to murder my dad. I didn't hesitate for a fucking second, and I would do it again.
I don't go to the wall for family when murder is involved. There's not a single person on this planet I care about enough to override my sense of justice.
This guy is clearly involved in Gabby's disappearance and likely death, and anyone who's covering for him NOW, after all that's happened, has a severe moral failing.

I'd turn in any of my family members if they were at the 01/06 insurrection without even blinking. Let alone, murder. At least if they were dumb enough to video tape themselves inside the capital.
Hypothetical? How about I know I'm not a walking piece of human garbage that would cover up a murder for my kid (or anyone for that matter). Sorry some of us actually have MORALS and a conscience.
I think Brian is going to be found but I don't know if he'll be alive or dead, I imagine that if he has done something to Gabby and he's gone to all of this trouble that he may be unwilling to be brought in alive.
Don't see a scenario where the girl still lives, and where he isn't deeply involved in her death. So sure, anything between outright murder and just manslaughter. And even the scenarios where it was just an accident look way worse due to him not calling for help and not cooperating at all with the family.
This has taken a turn..I feel he went out there to commit suicide. Otherwise, why go out there at all? You're not making it without food, water, supplies and based off of his past experiences he knows this.
It was the anonymous confessions thread and most of them were made up.
I think some people are favoring "suicide" here. Probably based on the police body cam where she was emotional (you know because most people are when they could be arrested but no, she's SUICIDAL). I just don't see it personally. If she killed herself, the body would likely be found, the area while remote does have a lot of traffic and common camping locations. His lawyer would also tell him not to run, he'd be working on a defense for him.
That he run should throw that theory out the window. At the very least he moved the body or some shit, but it's far more likely he's hiding because he's just straight up a murderer.
Although there's no evidence of crime, and thus the cops can't arrest him or limit his movements in any way, I don't believe there was anything hindering them from simple police surveillance, right? Especially as he's the last known person of interest in a missing person's case. Can experts confirm that the police didn't actually need a warrant or anything for a stakeout? Because if so, it makes this disappearance all the more frustrating.
I didn't even think about that. Damn, hopefully they have some sort of plan.
I would imagine that you'd have to have a legal reason to basically stalk a private citizen. If you think about it, that's probably a good thing because police certainly would abuse that ability to profile people of color.
They don't, they might need one if they were placing a tracker on his car. But simple eye ball surveillance would not require a warrant.
LOL what? I've been in this thread since last night.
Also show me a single post where I said he or his parents were good people or that i said he was innocent.
Police don't need a warrant to perform surveillance, they'd just need a warrant to arrest him or enter his house.
Pretty much. As I said multiple times in the other thread there are countless missing people right now, the only reason this one is national news is she's a pretty white girl.
Everyone in here having a passionate argument about if they would hypothetically turn in a family member for murder and getting sanctimonious over other people's answers...can y'all just stop? What you would do in this situation really has nothing to do with the subject at hand and really does not warrant the kind of intense mud slinging y'all are bringing. You sound like 12 year olds arguing over literally nothing. I promise you most people in here don't care what you would do one way or another and you do not need to to dramatically declare your moral standing.
This isn't always true. It depends on the kind of surveillance.
If your child is the person of interest in a murder/disappearance, helping them get a head start in running away is never a good idea.
Now he not only looks guiltier, but he's also at a high risk of killing himself. It's very possible that they've just inadvertently assisted their son in his own suicide.

This. The police pulled out all the stops to make sure Gabby was comfortable in that body camera footage. No way in hell would they have offered a Black woman Gatorade in the same situation.
Although I understand where you're coming from, in this matter it's obvious this guy is a major witness to a missing person case, and acting extremely suspicious, so it would have been easily justified.
This is what I'm assuming. I don't understand how this dude disappeared off the radar. Just have a cop or two in an unmarked car parked outside his last known location (was it confirmed he was staying at his parents, or are we just taking his parents word for that?)
law enforcement botched this badly
like really really bad
fucking insanely bad
should have had him under tight surveillance

Nah probably not, I'm just saying that if he doesn't he's a dead man and even if he does it's probably not much.
Someone made a post so people are replying to it. That's kinda how the internet works.
It's kinda pathetic that you have an issue with people basically saying they would do the right thing and turn their ass in.
That's a part of it. I mean let's be honest, it is. Fox News has been one of the best sources for this case and I'm laughing out loud if anybody tells me they'd be covering the story the same way if the missing woman was a young Black woman.
But it's also not the only reason. It's also assuming it's the only reason people in this thread care.
The boyfriend's behavior, the parent's behavior, the body cam footage, the fact that she was a video content creator with a lot of videos of herself and the fiance out there on social media, and now that he's on the run, all make the case standout.
I'm just gonna redirect you to the last sentence of my post and keep it moving.
He's a person of interest in a national missing persons case. It's a pretty clear argument.
I'm still fucking socked they weren't keeping an eye on him. Dude is the last person to see her alive, he drives back home in HER van, doesn't report her missing, refuses to talk to her family and refuses to cooperate with police. Now he is "missing". People have been arrested for less that what this guy did and yet the cops have the gall to say he "isn't a suspect" and that they don't track "private citizens".
My first instinct was to say that if the dude was a minority of any race or religious background that they would have 3 cars parked outside his house, but then I realized if he had been a minority they would have already arrested him for something.

Yeah I'm not sure why they didn't have someone posted out near their house to see what his movements were like.
Oh I agree, like I said a few posts back, if Brian was a person of Color, they would have found a way lol.
There are Fourth Amendment limits to the scope of police surveillance. Whether the surveillance constitutes an unreasonable search depends on the kind of surveillance and how it was conducted.
Like I said, it's not always true that the police don't need a warrant to surveil a person.
I'm sure we'll find out soon enough that Brian's family has been friends with the police chief for 20 years or something like that. The sheer amount of red flags at hand here would make any reasonable law enforcement agency at least keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't skip town.
That would be some 5D chess strategy considering how utterly inept they've appeared since all of this began.
Doesn't matter if this dude wasn't a suspect, you have people tail him like his own shadow.
You must watch a lot of bullshit movies.
also on the bold sentence: sure, because it's definitely 100% the parents' fault.
Fucking hell what am I even reading.
I really hope they find both of them, whether they're dead or alive. But him running away pretty much means she's dead.
How does he go missing? Like how were they not keeping close watch on him? He even had a lawyer.

I'd imagine they're treating the search for him more like they're looking for a fugitive than a normal missing person. He obviously doesn't want to be found, and could be armed.
