“No contact with (law enforcement) other than being informed of positive ID,” Bertolino said.
Evidence found in Carlton Reserve
A backpack and a notebook were found near where the remains were discovered. It is possible they belonged to Brian or were attached to the Laundrie case. And the FBI is hopeful that the notebook is “salvageable.”
Authorities would like to read what’s written in the notebook And remain hopeful that it could shed some light on his death.
A water bottle was also found in the nature park.
A Tik Toker, Olivia Vitale discovered the bottle allegedly in the reserve. And Internet sleuths point out that the container in Olivia’s video looks like a water bottle in images taken by murdered Long Island native Gabby Petito.
The North Port Police Department in Florida confirms that the water bottle is now in evidence in the department.
