Dog the Bounty Hunter speculates Brian Laundrie ‘called his parents from scene immediately after killing Gabby Petito’
DOG the Bounty Hunter has speculated that Brian Laundrie called his parents immediately after he "killed Gabby Petito."
The 68-year-old TV star in an exclusive interview with The Sun claimed that were involved in encouraging to rush home to Florida after his fiancée's death.
"And the house, I was there, it’s not a huge house so I’m sure they heard, the parents probably heard Gabby screaming.
"I was told by a very close source that he was a gentleman," Dog added.
"I think he said, 'mom, she was screaming, she was screaming so I put my hand over her mouth, and I held my hand and she was screaming and when I took it away she wasn’t breathing and I tried CPR'."
Dog then claimed that his parents would have told : "Ok, son, get home right now."
attorney Steven Bertolino told The Sun that they would not be commenting on the claims.
Speaking to The Sun last week, Dog claimed that he thought this was the story in the beginning but he has since changed his mind after reviewing the timeline of Laundrie's actions.
"If it had been an accident like that, the parents would have said, 'listen, this is Wyoming.'

DOG SLAMS LAUNDRIE PARENTS
Last Thursday in the Carlton Reserve.
Dog has mounted his own search in Fort De Soto Park after he reportedly received a tip that Laundrie was there.
He was forced to return to Colorado after he injured his ankle, he revealed on Sunday, but said the search will continue.
"It's a little too late. Don't you think?" he said
Dog added: "I have heard when they go get a parent...when the son is robbing a bank and they want to negotiate for the kid to come out, so they will get mom and mom talks to the kid.
"I've never heard of the police departments, and I'm sure it wasn't the FBI, that take the father on the ride-along. They must have some good friends."
Bertolino said in a statement that day: "Chris Laundrie is assisting Law Enforcement today in the search for Brian. Chris was asked to point out any favorite trails or spots that Brian may have used in the preserve.
"Although Chris and Roberta Laundrie provided this information verbally three weeks ago it is now thought that on-site assistance may be better.
"The preserve has been closed to the public and the Laundries as well but the parents have been cooperating since the search began.”
Gabby's parents claim that they repeatedly tried to contact the Laundrie family after they failed to hear from Gabby in two weeks.
The Petito family lawyer confirmed in an interview with Dr Phil last week that the card was Gabby's.
