One of the most popular types of shows is a documentary. The streaming platform, Netflix is well known for giving us some of the best, including one that surrounds the murder of Gabby Petito.
Now that many people have watched the Netflix documentary, there is a detail that seems to come to the fore. The documentary itself digs into the details about the murdered woman as well as to hear from the family members.
Some people may already have heard about Gabby Petito’s story because it was in the news but the documentary, American Murder: Gabby Petito goes into some of the details that may not have been covered through traditional media.
It shows how the YouTuber and her fiancé, Brian Laundrie took a cross-country trip in 2021 across the United States before she was murdered. The three-part documentary shows how she had gone missing a few weeks into the travels and her fiancé became a suspect as the investigation continued.
In October 2021, he was found dead at the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park. He had a note in his possession that confessed to the murder of Gabby.
Gabby’s autopsy showed that she died from ‘blunt force injuries’ to her neck and head along with ‘manual strangulation’. The documentary looked beyond these details and showed the emotional toll that it took on her friends and family as more details became public.
One viewer noted a detail that was very important and it was given by her mother, Nicole Schmidt. Each of the parents of Gabby, including her father Joe Petito, Nichole Schmidt, step-mother Tara Petito, and step-father Jim Schmidt all had matching tattoos that were designed by Gabby.

The tattoos had a flower inside of a triangle can and the family members also had ‘let it be’ tattooed, as it was also on Gabby. It was a tribute that the viewers appreciated.
These shows have the ability to really pull you in and this one, in particular, takes things to a very personal level.
