Famed Bounty Hunter and former bail bondsman Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman called off his search a little bit before human remains were found inside the park.
Previously, he had interrupted his own honeymoon in Florida with his new wife to go on the hunt for Laundrie, he claimed that he only volunteered his services out of wanting to find closure and possibly justice for the Petito family but an ex FBI agent came forward and railed against him saying that his involvement could have jeopardized the case, along with Police who were already on the ground searching for Laundrie at the time.
Dog the Bounty Hunter speaks out upon discovery of Laundrie’s remains
“We are praying for Gabby’s family as yet another day ends with seemingly more questions than answers though it does seem the search for Brian is indeed over.” he commented after it was confirmed that the remains found were indeed that of Gabby Petito’s 23 year old boyfriend, Brian Laundrie.
Of the many questions that have arisen since the discovery of Brian’s remains he said, “There will be time to ask questions such as what was the extent of the Laundries’ involvement in aiding Brian. But now we wait.” Indeed we do.
Ex FBI Agents weren’t the only ones criticizing Chapman, the Laundrie family came out criticizing him too, saying that he had only tried to cash in on their son’s disappearance in order to get a new TV deal. As previously stated, Chapman has denied such claims and said that he only wanted to help Gabby’s family.
However, since he volunteered it looks like there are several networks that are eyeing Chapman for possibly new TV deals and he has said in the past that he would not turn down another shot at TV. However, that would be a really cynical way to get a television deal by capitalizing on the pain of not just one, but two family’s losses.
It doesn’t really seem on-brand for Chapman and just seems like it would be counter-intuitive to his whole operation. Sure, you want to bring in the bad guys, but you also want to make sure that you have a heart for the families that are hurting… but then again, perhaps we’re expecting too much. Hope springs eternal, don’t you know? Stay tuned!!!
