... A federal grand jury indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Wyoming alleges Brian Laundrie used a Capital One Bank card and someone’s personal identification number to make unauthorized withdrawals or charges worth more than $1,000 during the period in which Petito went missing.

They have a pretty good idea of his movements at this point. They haven't quite figured out where mommy and daddy helped him skedaddle off to yet.

or if it was an accident...then manslaughter...and dumping the body carries time also as does not reporting the accident.... he is a piece of crap an abusive guy who hit her before and did controlling things...he took her credit card and left her without the keys to a vehicle when he moved his uncle or whatever it was. If you have ever been in this situation, that is a sign of abuse. This sort also threatens to take the kids and kill the pets sometimes. And they control the finances. I feel no pity for him at all.

I'm reminded of the scene in Dead Zone when Johnny has identified the serial killer and the sheriff has barged into the house despite the mother's objections, and Johnny brushes against the mother and instantly realizes... "You knew?"

They knew. And they tried to help their kid hide it. And they need to go to jail too.
