Using dental records, authorities have confirmed the human remains found at a park in North Port, Florida are a match for 23-year-old Brian Laundrie. In an interview with the Herald-Tribune, North Port Police Department spokesman Josh Taylor said Thursday that the remains found at the wilderness park were bones and not flesh. He added that it was likely Laundrie, which the F-B-I later confirmed. An attorney representing Laundrie also said the family was notified by officials that it was him. Laundrie is the sole person of interest in the homicide of his fiancé Gabrielle “Gabby” Petito, who was strangled and left for dead in the Wyoming wilderness in August.
