"He claimed that, when he pulled her from the water at Spread Creek, she was freezing cold, soaking wet, breathing heavily, and had a bump on her forehead that was growing in size."
Her feet hurt, her wrist hurt but she was freezing, shaking violently, while carrying her she continually made sounds of pain, laying next to her she said little lapsing between violent shakes, gasping in pain, begging for an end to her pain, he wrote."
"He claimed he tried to carry her to their car but his knees buckled out of exhaustion and shock, so he started a fire to keep her warm. He then claimed that Petito wouldnt let him leave her side to seek help."
"Laundrie didnt specify how he killed Petito but the injuries he claimed she was suffering were inconsistent with Petitos autopsy."
"He claimed he killed himself not because of a fear of punishment but rather because I cant stand to live another day without her before asking for leniency on behalf of his family, who he immediately ran to after her death. Please do not make life harder for my family, they lost a son and a daughter, he wrote."
