Petito Tipsters Lead Searchers to Missing Man's Body
A search-and-rescue team in Wyoming has credited the intense coverage of the Gabby Petito case with helping to bring the search for another missing person to an end.
Robert Lowery, a 46-year-old dad of two, was last spotted on Aug. 20 holding a black duffel bag and a tent in Bridger-Teton National Forestthe same location where Petitos remains were discovered earlier this month. Teton County Search and Rescue confirmed in a statement on Tuesday that a body matching Lowerys description has been recovered.
An investigation to find out what happened to Lowery has been ongoing since he vanished, but the rescue team said new tips started to come in following the media frenzy surrounding Petitos disappearance in the same area. The two cases are only connected by their shared location.
The widespread news coverage of the Gabby Petito search helped bring light to Lowerys case, and resulted in at least two members of the public calling local authorities this past weekend with new information about his possible last seen point, said Teton County Search and Rescue.
