Brian Laundrie connection to murder of Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner ‘can’t be ruled out,’ private investigator says
BRIAN Laundrie's connection to the murder of Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner "can't be ruled out," a private investigator said.
Jason Jensen, an investigator based out of Sale Lake City, Utah, has opened up about a possible connection between Gabby Petito's fugitive fiancé Brian Laundrie and the newlywed couple that was fatally shot in August.
Despite investigators saying that were not connected to Petito's case, Jensen spoke to ABC4 affiliate and revealed he suspects the cases could be linked.
Schulte and Turner are believed to have been killed sometime between August 13, one day after Moab Police were involved in an incident with Petito and Laundrie, and August 15, Jensen explained.
And shortely before the same-sex couple's death, the women had notified their friends via text about a man who had allegedly been “creeping them out."
In regards to the "creepy man," Jensen said, "that's really who we're looking for."
Jensen told NewsNation Now: "We wonder who this guy is and I don’t think there is a coincidence that somebody else is the murderer, I think it’s really this creepy guy.
"And if you know anything about Kylen and Crystal, they were very down-to-earth people, they were not debutants that somebody would be beneath them.
"It would take a lot for this guy to be creepy in their eyes."
"I wish they would have described the guy or got a license plate number," he added, before advising people to document suspicious people in a more "specific" way.
Jensen said Schulte's father was at Moab during the month after the newlyweds' murder and "amassed a large list of potential persons of interest."

"And one of them, we can't help to add to the list, which is Brian Laundrie, because until we can prove he was out of the area ... of course, he has to be considered until he's adequately ruled out," Jensen continued.
Online sleuths have claimed that a set of keys was found near Turner and Schulte's bodies with a membership card for a rock climbing gym attached.
On Laundrie's Instagram, he once shared an image of him helping a child at a rock climbing gym, where some claim he might have once worked.
Just days before, the couple had told friends about the man who was "creeping them out."
