What comes next in Brian Laundrie death investigation

What’s next now that the remains of Brian Laundrie have been found in the Carlton Reserve?

The FBI confirmed Laundrie’s identity through dental records. Medical examiners will now work to determine how and when he died. Further questions still remain: How long had the body been out there? What did Chris and Roberta Laundrie know throughout the last month?

The heartbreaking story that began in North Port and stretched across the country has come to an end right where it began. Neighbors in North Port cannot fathom that on the first day the Laundries volunteered to aid the search for their son, they found the items that led right to his remains.

Steve Bertolino, Brian Laundrie’s attorney,  released a statement to WINK News Thursday afternoon confirming that the remains were Laundrie’s.

“Chris and Roberta Laundrie have been informed that the remains found yesterday in the reserve are indeed Brian’s,” Bertolino wrote. “We have no further comment at this time and we ask that you respect the Laundries’ privacy at this time.”

Chris Laundrie was seen opening the door of his home as two North Port police officers entered to tell the parents that the remains belonged to his son.
