Brian Laundrie: Recently used campsite found in Florida reserve, report says

Meanwhile, we're still waiting for Gabby Petito's final autopsy results. The coroner stopped short of revealing her cause of death.

One forensics expert says that's unusual.
"Here there's been a long delay I guess, because of the concern about not missing anything, but more important, I think will be the same people who gave police information about the trips they took and how they were seen along the way may find something in how the death occurred."
As for Brian's possible whereabouts, law enforcement have reportedly found remnants of a recently used campsite at that preserve.
According to The Sun, law enforcement found a ‘fresh campsite’ during their search of the Carlton Reserve. Police and FBI agents were seen scouring the 25,000-acre reserve in Sarasota, Florida on Wednesday.
