THE families of both Brian Laundrie and Gabby Petito have reached an agreement regarding the couple's belongings after the young vlogger's parents met with the FBI on Thursday.

The assets, which are currently in possession of the FBI, include the notebook found by Laundrie's body at the Carlton Reserve on October 20, 2021.

“An agreement in principle with respect to the distribution of property between the families has been reached,” Chris and Roberta Laundrie's attorney Steven Bertolino told WFLA.

According to News Nation’s Brian Entin, Gabby's parents, Joe and Nichole, met with the FBI in Tampa on Thursday; however, the reason for the meeting remains unknown.

On Friday, the FBI released their final statement on the Gabby Petito case.

In the statement, the FBI claimed that "a review of the notebook revealed written statements by Mr. Laundrie claiming responsibility for Ms. Petito’s death."

It also revealed that after Gabby died, there were several messages exchanged between her and Brian's phone.

"The timing and content of these messages are indicative of Mr. Laundrie attempting to deceive law enforcement by giving the impression that Ms. Petito was still alive," the statement read.

It was also confirmed that Laundrie's parents will not be charged over Gabby Petito's murder as her family attorney said there's "no doubt" the fiance killed the vlogger.

On December 8, Chris and Roberta Laundrie filed a petition in Sarasota County court to be granted access to their son's belongings, which includes two bank accounts containing $20,000, according to the filing.

However, Bertolino said the Laundries would not be given the notebook.

"The petition is simply to administer his estate, which is primarily the bank account," Bertolino told Fox News.

"The return of property by law enforcement is separate."

BRIAN'S NOTEBOOKS

The public hopes the notebook could shed some light on the final weeks before Laundrie, 23, died by suicide in Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Reserve, Florida.

Laundrie was pictured with notebooks while traveling with Gabby.

In one photo, Brian was tucked under some blankets next to a stream and appeared to be relaxing in a hammock while they explored the Appalachian Trail in Georgia.

A green spiraled notebook was seen stacked on top of a paperback edition of Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk with a handful of fine point ink pens.

And, during their ill-fated cross-country road trip, an orange notebook can be seen inside a tent while the young couple was camping at Zion National Park, Utah.

Other notebooks appear to be shelved inside Gabby's immaculately decorated 2012 Ford Transit Connect van's interior.

In November 2021, Laundrie's best friend exclusively The US Sun that the 23-year-old's notebook could contain clues to solve Gabby's death.

"Hopefully his notebook can detail what it is we all want to know," the friend, who wished to remain anonymous, said. 

Gabby's remains were found in a campsite near Wyoming's Grand Teton Nation Park on September 19.

An autopsy found that she had been strangled to death by a "human force" between three and four weeks earlier.

Laundrie's skeletal remains were found in Florida's Carlton Reserve on October 20.

His death was ruled a suicide via a self-inflicted gunshot to the head.
