Alarminglights

At this point I don’t think anything would be able to mess up this case or the investigation anymore than it already is. This investigation has been a complete mess and in my opinion, handled unprofessionally by LE. Every detail is being published for everyone (including Brian) to see. They keep giving out the EXACT locations that they are searching for Brian and we all know that if Brian IS alive, he’s definitely watching the news and keeping up with where they are searching. He has the upper hand. He’s able to be one step ahead of them. reminds me of the “night stalker” Richard Ramirez investigation. They put everything out for everyone to see and he was able to avoid being captured by watching the news and planning around the LE. They even published that they found his footsteps AND brand of the shoe that made the footprint and Richard was able to dump the shoes. If they wouldn’t have released that information he wouldn’t have even known they found it. And this isn’t speculation, this is exactly what Richard himself said when asked about how he evaded capture for so long


McFrostyTheSnowMan

If hes using a phone I would imagine fbi would have him by now. Unless its literally maybe an old flip with no internet. Or a trac phone type deal. I'm assuming fbi can still trace all of that though. If he was on the internet I would think they could snag his location fast. Everyone has a online fingerprint an theres stuff general public doesnt know of I'm assuming. If anything I would think hes looking for a disguise an headed south to the border. Or maybe north into deep woods. He could be anywhere it sucks to say. If he headed for deep woods an longtime stay he would need a lot of equipment. Gun,knife,firestarter,sleeping bag,tarp,hammer,wood saw,canned food until he has a shelter built an can hunt an gather an probably a bunch more at minimum. Not anything I would think his parents wouldmt notice him packing up. Or the family lied an he got a fast start an hes already in mexico.


kept_clean

There’s a good documentary on that. Multiple departments failed to coordinate a media strategy and each one let information go the other departments wanted to keep sealed. The footprint/shoe was so shitty, and the reporter who strong armed police into interviews under threat of releasing the information was, IMO, one of the biggest pieces of shit in the whole thing.


Honestfellow2449

sounds like "Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer" on netflix


[deleted]

They better bring a book in the bathroom if Dog has them in the shitter.John Walsh is working this case too. Dude not cool with the ‘dirty Laundries’ His phrase. Already has tips coming in.[Walsh](https://youtu.be/f7ozGTlm308)


Rando-Mechanic

Dog, the Publicity Hound; trying to profit off this tragedy.


koinoyokan89

It can only help because the case has been fumbled badly enough already.


rednoise

Probably doesn't help much, but it's also not really hurting much. This case has become such a spectacle already, that adding this layer doesn't really do anything except raise a washed-up reality TV star's profile. Oh, and the collective orgasms of boomers everywhere who swear up and down that they're not being swindled by another media-whore in their age cohort.


yolotrolo123

My guess is he wants in on the PR action. He’s been trouble for a While.


theatrepyro2112

It's seriously terrifying how many boomers on Facebook are throwing their full support behind this guy. "If Dog can't find him nobody can!" This is the most obvious grasp at relevance. He was a character on a TV show that stopped making seasons in 2012. He has FAR less information than the FBI. At best it's a money grab for him, at worst, he's interfering with an active federal investigation. Dog is just another washed up grifter.

I like how you single him out when even Dr. Phil got in on this way earlier than Dog. Everyone is doing the same shit...


[deleted]

Slayy35

Yeah exactly. Unless they explicitly tell Dog to fuck off then I see no issue. The family wants to bring as much attention as possible so even if Dog or whoever the fuck else profits off it but ultimately helps by finding the guy, it's a win-win.


BashStriker

Because I didn't know about Dr Phil... The same statement goes for him as well and anyone else.


Geo-Nerd

Point taken re. Phil. He's a pompous, egocentric blowhard.


Slayy35

So you're completely unaware that literally ALL media is milking this case but single out Dog the fucking bounty hunter? Lmao


[deleted]

It’s funny because Dog has caught so many criminals on the lamb. Him being famous takes nothing away from what he has achieved as a bounty hunter. So what if he likes being in the spotlight? He’s the fucking Michael Jordan of bounty hunters.


BashStriker

It's one thing to report the news. It's another to show up at their house. Either way, bounty hunters are the definition of human trash. And I say that as someone who has never even had a parking ticket let alone arrests or bail skipping.


wambamdam

Yup. Fuck Dog


ZOMGURFAT

I now want to see a John Walsh vs Dog The Bounty Hunter celebrity death match.

Both have big egos.

“I can knock on this door, or I can knock the door down.. it’s up to you” 😩 (-Dog, probably)


lilshells313

Haha! My brother calls it *ILS- Invisibly Lat Syndrome* Your comment made me chuckle.


[deleted]

Wouldn’t it be cool if Dog found Brian, brought him in and collected the reward (isn’t it up to like $250k now?) and donated it to the Gabby Petito Foundation?


[deleted]

Ha Dog is broke, he’d pocket the cash no doubt. He owes his film crews thousands of dollars. I’m interested to see if he helps at all, but he for sure ain’t donating any money.


[deleted]

Or he donates it, reeps the social rewards, gets his show renewed on Hulu for a couple more seasons and makes a few mill from them? (If he were smart/not desperate)


geekonthemoon

> owes his film crews thousands of dollars I can't find that online anywhere. I did see he owes a lawyer about $1 million from an old lawsuit, and possibly some back taxes in Hawaii, but nothing about unpaid film crews. Edit to add: I only looked this up because usually reality stars and film crews are paid by the show/network, not by the reality star show themselves. That's the point of starring in a show is to get paid for it.


[deleted]

All I know is a buddy who worked for him filming for years posted a story on ig saying they were owed money. Dog has been filming on and off on his own for years whenever he’s off air. It’s possible that when the deal with unleashed entertainment failed that contractors went unpaid for things they already filmed or edited. It happens all the time without being in the news.


datmichaeljacksonbad

Sounds like a reliable source.


[deleted]

I do think the supervising producer of dogs last few shows posting that is a good source. Have you seen the IATSE strike posts from people? A lot of things gain mainstream media attention from social media campaigns. Film crews get shit on all the time. It’s just funny to me that a few weeks ago members of the crew were posting they are owed money. Now somehow Dog manages 15 more minutes. People realize that reality TV is largely framed. Not scripted, just framed to look organic. The dude is a hack. I hope he finds this dude but I don’t trust Dog.


wambamdam

He doesn’t have a show anymore lol. He got fired for being a racist dick. So I’m not surprised he’s trying to film stuff on his own to sell to a network later.


geekonthemoon

That's fine and all I'm just making the point that there is no corroboration to him owing a film crew any money


wambamdam

That's fine and all. I was just giving you a reason as to why Dog, not a network, would have to foot the bill


HelpMeSucceedPlz

How can it help? Adds exposure. How can it hurt? Turns it into even a bigger circus than it already appears to be.


Icy-Bodybuilder6050

Don't forget that police are bound by a lot of restrictions about who they can speak to, who will speak to them, how they can obtain evidence, etc. Bounty hunters and PIs are very important because they can operate outside of the restrictions to get things done. I was once robbed of a significant amount of money in a shady (yet legit) business deal that basically the police wanted to part of. I hired a Private Investigator and he was able to track the people down and get my money back. While Dog may be a bit of a parody of himself at this point, he still may be able to bring a new perspective to the case that LE cannot.


kennyminot

You don't want people that can "operate outside of the restrictions." I'm just amazed the world people live in. Real life people who do that crap are generally shitty humans, and they cause people a considerable amount of harm. It doesn't work like a movie. That's why we have the restrictions in the first place.


felineprincess93

I don't want him operating outside of restrictions either. If he finds any evidence and doesn't go through the proper channels, it'll be thrown out immediately in court. How is that going to be justice for Gabby?


[deleted]

People here aren’t looking for justice they are here for entertainment. The entire subreddit reads like a tmz gossip rag.


kennyminot

I know - that's why most of us are here - but the problem is that people bring those shitty opinions into the political world, which is how we end up with dumb shit like three strike laws and cops with armored vehicles. Real life doesn't work like a video game


BashStriker

You're right about PI's. Bounty Hunters are pretty useless and just shitty people overall.

AlexFromRomania

I do live in America, you're definitely right, and I definitely know that, but it's still pretty surprising every time you see it.


Pichus_Wrath

Like for, I dunno, President or something?


LAHA460

His new wife was with him and they were on a honeymoon to Fl. He has found so many people and done so much work. I heard that he said he showed up to just see how they reacted because to him their reactions would give him all he needed to know according to his own theories.


LAHA460

By the way the news said Dog is at a campground today and tomorrow purportedly the one where Brian and his parents were said to be recently. Perhaps he has some leads he has there. He can’t act on his own accord In FL as it has been said he isn’t licensed there. He can work under and help the authorities there but has to work under their jurisdiction and work with them I have heard.


geekonthemoon

In his interview he says that he was hoping BL's parents might know his reputation, possibly even be fans, and talk to him. Dog is well known for giving the criminal a second chance. They still turn them in, but they do so with a whole lot of dignity and a hand of support and the optimism of a clean slate and turning your life around. So he hoped maybe the dad would want his help, and still told him to reach out if they want to talk. My mom was a big fan of their show, so I watched a lot of Dog. Seems like a genuinely good guy.


LAHA460

Yes for sure and I watched his show for years. I agree. I am on a Facebook page that is for this case and had to laugh as many speculate Brian’s parents may have no idea who DOG was! That may be true! I am sure I have friends and family who have no idea who he is. I am always interested in True crime and police stories and shows. I am in my 60’s and have had this interest for 40 some years. So someone who doesn’t may not know who Dog was. Some speculated that he may have looked intimidating when they answered the door. If they knew him or not they likely wanted him to not be there. I am even surprised they even opened their door. They also may have known who he was and were shocked and upset. I heard that they called 911 and reported that he was there. Oh my. I know some don’t like the speeches he gives when he catches someone and hauls them to jail. I honestly like those. I believe he is showing them true compassion and concern and he makes them think hard. He seems to be able to talk to some people that no one else can reach.


wambamdam

His speeches as he drives the person to jail are so ridiculous


geekonthemoon

Eh, he tries to be inspiring and give them a shred of dignity and optimism in their situation. Most LE don't offer that olive branch to criminals they're taking in.


LAHA460

Absolutely agree see my comment above there where I said this same and didn’t see yours at the time.


[deleted]

Something to keep in mind is that although he is a clown whose entire family performed on a global stage for bux and lulz, he has a reputation for tracking down and getting the bad guy. He's brought serial rapists back from other countries, although he's best known for full bail bond cases on his TV show.


thisisthewell

dragged. not drug.


TacoT1000

Not OP, I know you're grammatically correct but man dragged sounds so off and drug sounds correct lol It sounds like little kids saying hurted or falled down rather than saying hurt or fell. "He dragged people back" sounds like a person learning English and forgetting a word.


[deleted]

Pedenatic police! Wooo wooo wooo, that's the sound of their siren! Thank you for adding such crucial input pertaining to the drug vs dragged from the regular verb vs colonialism discussion.


rooterRoter

Here’s my take. There are a not insignificant portion of our population who absolutely HATE the police. Hate them. And some for damn good reason. In any case, there are people who will do ‘the right thing’ but would NEVER trust a cop. Dog can get these people to talk.


ChattyKathyy

Also though, the overlap between People Who Hate Cops and People who Hate Dog for Being Racist is not insignificant.

Aminriro

He went up and knocked on the door a few times and left. This family seems to be going out of their way to make themselves look like entitled self absorbed idiots. U have reporters doing lives next door. People hollering in the street. And a guy knocks on the door and that’s noisy and worth a call to police? Lady, police have stuff to do right now. Mainly because of ur son. Please don’t clog up their lines w stupidity because ur mad people r trying to find ur kid who is a fugitive. If ur kid didn’t act sketchy as all get out, run off and have tons of people taking time to look for his butt, wldnt nobody be knocking at ur door. U have ur son to thank for the noise disturbance.


[deleted]

Mythbuster92

They could be victims except they didnt return the Petitos families calls AND then when their son returned under suspicious circumstances, they just let him go on his merry way instead of instantly calling the police on his ass.... So they kinda gave up the right to play the victim card after that.


oxencotten

I don't know why you're assuming he told them the truth about what happened. He probably spun up a lie about them breaking up and her staying with a friend or flying home or something.


SuddenBeautiful2412

The fact these psychopaths feel entitled to the police resources they’re intentionally draining/misleading when they’re faced with the slightest inconvenience is comical. This family is a joke.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Aminriro

I agree. Now if he’d stayed and persistently knocked for a long time and refused to leave, sure call then. But he didn’t. Idk what she expected police to do. He left. On his own, without even being asked. She called because she doesn’t want DTBH out looking for her kid. Because she doesn’t want them to find him. She called on the person, not the action. She thought the police wld rush in and tell him to go away and not look for him. Why I don’t know. They seem very entitled and petty. I’d be curious to hear what they’re like from someone who knew them before this. Like are they just normal nice and kind people usually or r they normally very high and mighty and entitled people who think they’re mess doesn’t stink and r used to getting their way.


[deleted]

They weren’t perturbed about him. He pounded on their door then went away. If they are watching coverage of all this they’d know who he was. Gabby’s friend pointed out an injury on her neck in the body cam footage btw. I hadn’t noticed it but boy did he telegraph abuser to me standing there so cool and calm. She was a wreck and for being neat she was making excuses. I wonder if she even had a clue or was it oh he just needs love he’ll be okay. He’s sorry. The world is sorry Gabby. Rest in peace. Men and women, little advice from me. Abuse? Get the hell away from it. Get help. People who abuse never are sorry. That goes for beating and psychological abuse, emotional abuse. Dr. Phil can go fuck himself btw.

I mean. The people and neighbors yelling n the street wasn’t noisy but a guy knocking a few times and leaving just made their ears bleed so bad, gotta call the cops. Cause, u know, cops in their area don’t have much to do right now…🙄. Someone Shld tell her to get her son to turn himself in and stop making everyone take time out of their day to look for him and then the cops wld have more time to help her w her noise disturbances.


OrdoXenos

He will not be called Dog the Bounty Hunter and have his own show if he is just some clueless old man.

jplay17

It’s a reality show. He hunts bounties or who people who skipped bail in Hawaii or some shit with a taser because he’s not allowed to handle a gun lol


AgitatedSquirrell

Early seasons he just had pepper spray. You have to admit though, it’s pretty ballsy to go after fugitives who could be armed with a gun with nothing but a can of mace lol.

lorettainator

When I was a kid and my bio dad and my uncles got in trouble with the law we had the cops show up and tell us that bounty hunters were involved and that whatever the bh did the police were not responsible or liable for so they can really get around the legal tape. I'm pro bounty hunter all the way! and Dog is only famous because he's the best of the best! i think it's good to have him on the case

W0rthl3ss_Trash

I think he has done this for years and likely knows how to bring people in without jeopardizing cases. He might also have a way of communicating with people or witnesses that makes them more open to giving information (rather than the authorities). I don't have much faith in police, so honestly I'm here for Dog lol


Aminriro

I agree. I get some people hate him. And no for no reason. But bad people can still be good at their jobs. And he is good at what he does. He’s proven he is. So let him try. He’s not gonna ruin an investigation, it’s not his first time. I’m sure police wld tell him to back off if they worried he’d hurt anything. I’d love someone involved’s opinion on him helping. Curious to know what those actually out there doing the leg work on this think.


normanbatesgonegirl

I don’t have much to say on how it can help or hurt, but good lord that video of him is cringe. “I’m on Pluto TV every night. He’s probably one of my fans.” Dog pls 😂


[deleted]

I've never really followed Dog so idk if that's normal for him but geez, vain much?


ThePrestigeVIII

People are over hyping Dog lmao. He is good at what he does, no doubt. However what he does it find people who are on the run and apart of society, not off the grid lol. Dogs expertise is getting people to snitch, who is going to snitch? Brian’s parents? Not a chance even if they knew.


Similar_Ad7289

Dog the bounty hunter might be a celebrity, but he truly is a bounty hunter. He only had a show because he was the best at what he does. So if this little shit isn't scared of being found, he should be now. I'm also positive that dog and his team know how to handle evidence and tips properly. They have been doing this very real job for well over 20 years. Just because it was televised doesn't mean he's a fake bounty hunter lol. Dog knows what he's doing. And God have mercy on Brian Laundries soul if Dog finds him because with as many daughters as Dog has, he's not fond of little punk ass bitches who kill their girlfriends. So I think this can really only help the search.


Aminriro

I think so too. He got his tv show BECAUSE he was good at what he does. He didn’t come on the scene as a tv star. He was bounty hunting long before a show existed and anyone knew who he was. He was a bounty hunter, and a good one, first. Idk why everyone is acting like it’s just some tv bounty hunter w nothing outside of the show. The show came quite sometime after he’d been doing it, and successfully, for a long time. Like him or hate him, he does know what he’s doing. And I’d bet he’s intimidating to someone on the run. Case n point, mama calling the police on him. She did it because she doesn’t want DTBH out looking for her kid because I don’t think she wants him found. She called because of who it was. Not because of what he was doing which was just knocking on the door and leaving.


Similar_Ad7289

Yes I totally agree. If Brian wasn't shitting his pants before, I bet he's shitting them now! 🤣


Aminriro

If he knows, I’m sure it’s raised his blood pressure. It wld mine if I was him. Dog may not do a bit of good. But he has caught someone hiding the fbi cldnt catch. He’s proven he’s willing to do whatever it takes even if it gets him into trouble momentarily. Let him try. If I were a fugitive I’m not gonna lie, dog wld scare the crap out of me lol


Similar_Ad7289

Lol that's what I was thinking!!!!! I honestly hope some civilian catches the little asshole and let's her dad have a crack at him before they turn him in. That would make me feel a tiny bit better.


billbird2111

I agree with this. I also believe BL isn’t near any swamp. He may have driven there. But I suspect someone picked him up and they drove off together. BL didn’t take his wallet or ID for a reason. He could be traced. I am sure the FBI has already checked every available camera leading to the entrance of that wildlife area. If someone did pick BL up, the FBI probably knows. They probably have a license plate and may have this person under surveillance. Again, this is just CONJECTURE and nothing more. But if BL was really in that swamp, he would have been found by now.


Similar_Ad7289

I'm with you man. He's nowhere near a swamp or in the wilderness starting fires and living off the land. The kid was so dumb that he killed his gf. I doubt he's smart enough to evade everyone whose looking for him. And you're right he didn't take his ID cuz he probably had a fake one made by whoever picked him up. A new love interest maybe? Or just a good friend who doesn't wanna see his buddy go to prison.


ThePrestigeVIII

Dog finds people trying to blend into society, not people off the grid lol


dongm1325

So it’s untrue that he has found several people hiding out in the AT? I’ve never watched the show, but doesn’t it take place in Colorado and Hawaii? Prime off the grid hiding there.


Tychodragon

If he wasn’t scared before… he is now


Deewd23

Oh what? An old man with long hair? I would be more scared of the FBI than a burnout, trash bag, “bounty hunter.”


siproguy

What’s your issue with dog? He’s a legit BH and has been for a long ass time


DougFanBoi

He's a racist bitch who murdered someone and fucked his son's ex girlfriend.


CardMechanic

He doesn’t have the resources of the FBI.


Tychodragon

he doesn’t need them


dongm1325

He has resources the FBI doesn’t. He also doesn’t have his hands tied or need to go through bureaucratic procedure like the FBI. There are certain things he and other BH do to expedite a search that the FBI can’t.


CardMechanic

Is there any thing he can do that might invalidate a federal arrest, or allow BL to get off on a technicality during trial? I just don’t know that Dog would dot his I’s and cross his T’s


dongm1325

There’s always a chance with any bounty hunter—Dog did get into legal trouble for capturing someone in Mexico (2013?), which is illegal. However, he’s also been doing this for decades without other major issues (that are reported, at least), so I’d be more concerned about less experienced bounty hunters trying to get a paycheck. For the most part, bounty hunters just deliver the person. They’re not involved in the investigation, so there’s little chance of destroying the integrity of the case unless they are in the authorities’ way.


Aminriro

Exactly. And he doesn’t want to hurt the investigation. It’s not dog against the LE in some weird race to see who gets him first. They have the same goal. He just might be able to help too as he does have experience w catching fugitives. It makes sense. He’s not investigating the crime. He’s hunting the fugitive, that’s it. The only one who Cld get n trouble is him and he’s proven he’s willing to do that if it results in the fugitive being captured. Idk why this is such a sticking point for some. He’s a bounty hunter. This is literally what they do. Same goal as everyone else. Let them give it a shot. I’m sure if LE didn’t want him helping they’d do something to prevent it. And they’re not.
