The cops were trying to do the right thing and not just assume the man did it. I'm disgusted by 99% of these posts. The cops in that interaction knew that she was the aggressor and did the right thing. They shouldn't base their decisions on how cute and sweet someone is and you all know it.

You all are so hung up on how pretty, shy, small, sweet, white etc she is. That's where your sense of injustice comes from. She put her hands on him. No woman has any right to put their hands on another person.


⬆️ She seemed to be having a major manic episode. AND she admitted to the police she was the aggressor. BL was restraining her from attacking him. Her mania may have been going on for days. He was probably restraining her when he placed her in a chokehold and she died near the creek bed.

It seems like Gabby might have been bipolar maybe undiagnosed. It's more common among artistic temperament people are.

All the people in the doc saying BL was weird, BL was strange... it's just confirmation bias--he came across to me as a sensitive shy guy who had bitten off more than he could chew with Gabby. Not saying she deserved any of this--mental illness is no ones fault--but I think she just got crazy violent with him at the end and he snapped.


That’s not what he claimed, though. You wanting to tilt this story more towards him than even he did is a tell.

I think the cops did not know what they were really dealing with. Seeing the interview, I wouldn't have thought Brian would soon KILL her. They had minor marks and scratches. It seemed more like a bad fight, probably from being in close quarters in the van. I think she covered for him though because whatever the witnesses saw must have been alarming. The person sounded alarmed in the 911 call. He was probably holding/restraining her, hitting her and screaming at her and obviously showed a different side of himself to her in private.

I have only watched the first episode which ends with the cop pull over scene. Interesting that the cops sent him to a “hotel” and Gabby alone in the car and simply told them not to contact each other. Seemed like a odd thing for cops to do.

Witnesses aren’t reliable and have biases.

This is a crazy take. There’s no evidence that she had mental health issues. Seems more likely that she was covering up for him, as many DV victims do.

I think it was a seedy motel, that could be why. Also makes her less mobile and a sitting duck for him to come find her if he wanted.

I remember knowing 100% that she was dead when everyone found out he was at home with his parents.

I'm glad her parents sued them and won. Still doesn't seem just especially given the parents involvement in covering up her death and allowing their son to roam free.

Maybe the most shocking part of the documentary to me was the detailed interaction with the cops where they were thinking about charging her with battery when the witness clearly saw him battering her.


Society hates women. That's all!

You are WAY out of line! Artistic people have bipolar?! Please take your idiocy elsewhere. It's like all of the morons have found DCUM these days. He (the MURDERER) is sensitive and she was manic. Go write your fiction somewhere else.

But she said SHE was the aggressor. She had no slap marks on her--and she was very fair--if he had hit her it would have shown up on her skin very quickly.

I noticed how hard he slammed the van door in the Whole Foods footage where she was last seen. My guess is he found out somehow that she was talking to her ex.


I agree on the door slam - he was pissed. Though I think it had to do with what she told her Mom - that she could make more money as a single female van life blogger. I think she tried to break up with him and that's what led him to kill her. Very sad.

They all seem like great parents (both parents and step parents) they just seem a little hands off. To hear them describe it, they all expressed shock that she wanted to move to FL but never told her she shouldn't go.



She was 22!


She was only 20 when she moved away, and 18 when she decided to skip college. And plenty of parents have influence over 22 year olds - those that are financially dependent. My college age kids know I have some say over major decisions in their life if they want to remain on the payroll, which they do.

I don’t understand your point. Her choice was to earn her own money and not be on the payroll. The goal is launch independent children no matter which path they choose.

Even though I judge the cops, they were not ultimately responsible for her death.

The sole person at fault here is Brian.

Exactly!!! She was murdered.

Are you saying that is because of her communication skills!!!!


I’m a dp and I completely get your point but it IS good for girls to know what they can be up against (especially girls from dcumlandia.
