Brian Laundrie’s lawyer offers secret settlement to Gabby Petito’s family before civil trial

A lawyer for Brian Laundrie and his parents in Gabby Petito’s murder case reportedly made a settlement offer to the slain woman’s mom and dad ahead of a civil trial scheduled for next year.

Court papers obtained by WFLA show attorney Steven Bertolino recently filed the proposal to Joe Petito and Nichole Schmidt, Gabby’s parents.

The terms of the deal were not disclosed, and a lawyer representing Joe Petito and Schmidt declined to comment to the outlet.

Gabby’s grieving parents are suing Brian Laundrie’s parents — Chris and Robert Laundrie — in civil court in Florida, alleging they were aware of Gabby’s killing but chose to remain silent about the case.

The suit argues their inaction resulted in their severe emotional distress and that they deserve compensation.
