The parents of Gabby Petito, 22, whose disappearance, subsequent strangulation, and murder by her boyfriend Brian Laundrie made headlines across the nation, have released a heartbreaking selfie she took just before a witness made a 911 call to report that Laundrie had attacked her.
On July 2, 2021, Petito left New York with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie. They took a road trip to Colorado and Utah. The selfie was taken at 4.37 p.m. on August 12, 2021, in Moab, Utah. The photo shows her with tears in her eyes and a bloody bruise around her eye, wearing the same clothes as the video footage when two officers later responded to the call.

The attorneys representing Gabby Petito&#39;s parents have released this photo from her cell phone. They say it shows Gabby was violently assaulted and likely strangled before her interaction with Moab Police. The Petitos are suing the police for the way they handled the interaction. <a href="https://t.co/PssoLlg3mK">pic.twitter.com/PssoLlg3mK</a>

Petito told officers Laundrie “grabbed my face,” showing them how he had attacked her.
“Did he slap your face or what?” one officer asked.
“He grabbed me with his nail, and I guess that’s why it looks — I definitely have a cut right here. I can feel it. When I touch it, it burns.” Petito replied. After Petito said she had struck Laundrie first, police reportedly left.
The Petito family has <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11723667/Gabby-Petito-selfie-shows-bruised-face-moments-traffic-stop-Brian-Laundrie.html">filed</a> a $50 million wrongful death lawsuit against the Moab Police Department. Attorney Brian Stewart, stated, “Moab police failed to listen to Gabby, failed to investigate her injuries and the seriousness of her assault, and failed to follow their own training, policies, and Utah law.”
The <a href="https://abc7ny.com/gabby-petito-disappearance-911-call-brian-laundrie/11033239/">transcript</a> of the 911 call reads:
<blockquote>
Dispatcher: Grand County Sheriff&#8217;s Office.
