Brian Laundrie’s dad takes down protester's sign outside his home that asks 'what if it was your daughter Cassie?'

BRIAN Laundrie’s dad, Chris, has removed a sign from his property that read “What if it was Cassie?”

The father of the fugitive was filmed removing the sign referencing his daughter Saturday morning from the yard of their North Port, Florida, home.



It comes after Chris Laundrie, 62, was seen Friday installing what appeared to be a new doorbell camera as the FBI and law enforcement officials continued to search for Brian.

Brian Laundrie is currently wanted on debit card fraud charges and is a person of interest in the homicide of his 22-year-old girlfriend Gabby Petito.

A coroner revealed Tuesday that Petito had been killed by strangulation.

The media and protestors have been camping outside the Laundrie family home while they await updates in the case.

A memorial to Petito has been growing at the Laundrie home with well-wishers leaving flowers and notes as well as lighted candles.

The latest developments come after Petito’s dad posted a “beautiful view” of a lake near where the vlogger's body was found.

"I now know why you came here. #gabbypetito has a beautiful view from now on. Love you, and miss you," Joseph Petito wrote on Twitter on Friday alongside a picture of a lake surrounded by mountains.

While Joseph did not say the location of the image, his wife Tara Petito also posted a picture with Gabby's mom Nichole on a lake on Friday night.

"Two moms out at Jenny Lake, taking in the beauty of it all," Nichole wrote.

Jenny Lake is in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming, where Gabby's remains were found on September 19.

Gabby had been camping with her fiancé Brian Laundrie when she disappeared.

The young traveler was found dead by investigators at the Spread Creek Dispersed Campground more than a week after she was reported missing by her mom.

Her stepdad Jim Schmidt said that Gabby's remains were discovered just in front of the area where the tent and fire would have been.

He added that it would have been only a short walk from where the van would have been parked but was off the beaten path.

Gabby's autopsy results were revealed on Tuesday, October 12.

Teton County Coroner Dr Brent Blue confirmed Gabby died by strangulation.

He added that Gabby's predicted death was three to four weeks before her body was found. The body was outside "in the wilderness" for this time.

In other developments, a close friend claimed Brian Laundrie had the resources to escape the US illegally.

Laundrie’s long-term pal exclusively told The Sun that Gabby’s Petito's on-the-run fiancé had plans of living outside the US since high school and revealed the countries he may escape to.

Laundrie was reported missing on September 17 – days after allegedly telling his parents that he was going for a hike in the Carlton Reserve.

"I think he'd be able to put the resources together to get out of the country, either illegally or under some sort of a fake identification,” the friend told The Sun.

“He's the type of person that would be able to drop everything to secure his means of not being captured and to evade arrest or evade prosecution from what seems to be a pending crime."
