Her remains were tragically discovered in Wyoming’s Teton National Forest on September 19, just days after Brian had returned home to Florida, but soon vanished.
Authorities launched a massive search for Brian before he was discovered dead in the swamps of a Florida park on October 20. He died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Brian’s journal was found near his body with a suicide note where he confirmed that he killed Gabby. A letter he wrote claimed that Gabby’s death was a mercy killing after she suffered a head injury in a fall.
“I ended her life, I thought it was merciful, that it is what she wanted, but I see now all the mistakes I made. I panicked. I was in shock,” Brian wrote. “But from the moment I decided, took away her pain, I knew I couldn’t go on without her.”
