Anyone else following the Gabby Petito missing person case?

As sad as this is, this story is an example of where a huge number of people are these days: if I can make my life look happy and great to others, I can make it happy and great for myself.

a very sad story indeed.

Dude, Gabby is not in hiding, she did not try to put this douch in jail, Gabby is dead.

Yes she is confirmed sad

Florida man..........should have left her in WY or UT with her van and got a plane ticket home before whatever happened- happened. Fella gotta know when to walk away.

it's a sad story, but i honestly don't really care. i mean, some may call me heartless, I'm not, i can have empathy for her family, i have daughters, and i can't imagine experieicing this- but i choose to NOT insert myself into their situation, i've experienced and witnessed enough death and heartbreak that i chose to opt out for this one. unfortunately people go missing and get killed all the time in this country. why do i have to care about this woman more than any of the other people that have died?

I say this in the same way that i don't care about celebrity deaths (or really anything about their lives) - it sucks they won't be making movies or music or playing a sport but... their death doesn't feel any different to me than the guy up the street, or a random stranger.

i don't know if i'm making selse or just coming across as heartless. perhaps it's compassion fatigue.

you need to care because the media tells you too so you do not think about the other really bad chit going on in the USA. Look at my assistants big tits while I lift your wallet.

The press chose this story to latch on to, why, who knows but they did. Just over four (can it be that long ago) years ago a good friend of mine went missing and I'm certain no body here ever heard about it. His remains were found in the desert seven months later, he had been murdered and to this day hie family has no answers. No national news, and but for a few billboards along interstate 10 paid for by his family with help from "go fund me " there was not even anything on the local news. I think the National news picked up on it because of the circumstances of the case, happy couple soon to be married and then she went missing and he went home and offered no help finding her and now he takes off. Very sad for her family just as it would be for any family who's family member went missing then found dead. I fully agree with you about celebrities, too bad but move on.
