Found dead. of course the fbi still needs to positively identify her, but a lot of questions right now as to what brian laundrie may have known and what type of involvement he may have had in the disappearance and now death of his girlfriend. of course those questions again that need to be answered, and so far police have maintained that hes only a person of interest, but again, lots of questions, jon. >> jon: yeah, charles, and i want to throw a couple of them back at you because you gave us th...

>> got a lot of weird things happen in trial. ive never, in my life, had evidence such as this. >> this might be more than what were, initially, being told. >> but before all the fear and the finger pointing, it was just another thanksgiving weekend in november, 2012, in the small town of little falls, minnesota. >> everybody knows everybody and everything about everybody. >> 18-year-old, rachel brady, was spending the holiday with her 17-year-old brother, nick, and their 18-year-old cousin, hai...

For some time. the cost had almost doubled, there were delays, so there had been indications and reports as early as this year that this deal may be under threat. but of course we know that the french say this came completely out of the blues. why now? many people suggest it was a viable plan b. the uk and us alliance allowed australia to sidestep into something else. but it is worth pointing out that billions of dollars have already been spent on the french deal, and there will be further delay...

Records days ago and also x-rays that they will take of bones. so identification will be completed within a day or two, i suspect. but right now its really for all intense and purposes, it is a definite identification. it isnt anybody else. the next is what is the cause of death? that will take -- the autopsy -- the body is still probably at the site where she was found because the person in charge of that body is the coroner. the fbi does not have their own medical examiner coroner. they will w...

Perhaps, we can get a reaction from you on this point, ted williams, but there were other law enforcement personnel standing by. none of them spoke, and the fbi said were not going to answer any questions and curious to me, we do not yet know who found the body. was it a searcher? was it a hiker? was it a fisherman? we dont know because they didnt say. they said a body was found. >> jon, at this stage because the investigation is in the infancy stages, theyre keeping a lot of information close t...

Can, beer can that may have been discarded at the scene that would have fingerprints and dna on it, even after 25 days. >> jon: what about the prospect of figuring out cause of death? i know that there are, you know, situations where, you know, asphyxiation, choking, strangling, that kind of thing, that can be very hard to determine. >> yes. and what you hit on is the most common type, if this is a homicide, the circumstances suggest strangulation being the most likely reason, a shooting or stab...

Family prior to her going on this cross-country trip with brian laundrie, so thats when their behavior starts becoming suspicious because not a word to anyone about gabbys whereabouts, they lawyered up, and now in fact when their son goes missing, they spend 72 hours not saying anything to law enforcement either. all of this at the end of the day, if brian laundrie is found, or if theres evidence to establish that somehow hes been involved in gabby petitos death, if it is all confirmed with the ...

Or, you know, a tumble off of a ledge or who knows what. but there are an awful lot of questions to be asked here. what would you call it? >> well, i think they are going to continue to treat it as a death investigation. but i think it is a little early and a little presumptuous at this stage to call it a homicide investigation. i do believe that they are going to treat that area, though, as a crime scene, and they are going to investigate it under those circumstances. and youre right, jon, we d...
