Body Discovered In A Wyoming Forest As Authorities Search For Missing Woman, Gabby Petito

In Wyoming, a body was discovered in the forest where authorities have been looking for Gabby Petito.

“I can confirm that the coroner’s office was dispatched by a deputy coroner on the scene to recover a body that was found in the forest,” Dr. Brent Blue, the Teton County coroner said.

Law enforcement officials have not said what the gender of the person was that was discovered. They have yet to confirm if the body was of the missing 22 year-old who went missing last month. She had traveled across the country with her boyfriend.

The coroner’s van was observed at the search command center at Grand Teton National Park. This was the last location Petito was said to be seen alive.

Gabby talked to her mom last on August 25. On September 1, her boyfriend, Brian Laundrie came back home with her van but not Gabby.

Laundrie has now gone missing.
