whitman in 1966, he went up on the top of the university of boston, texas, they shot i think 16 people altogether by a sniper, they don't know much about this young man, what you think they will find out? >> he lived in regina from what we understand, they've already broken into his media site, i think they will find some kind of problem in this young man's life and unfortunately he went in the direction he did but i agree, in 2002 the sniper case, i was there in the fox studio, a chilling situation. it's out of control, unfortunately. eric: absolutely is. thank you for your service to
>> reporter: and tonight, as the fbi addressed the media, they called brian laundrie a person of interest in gabby petito's murder. they also explained that they are expecting to be here, in this park, for the next several days as they process the evidence in the area where they found those belongings today. erin. >> all right, leyla, thank you very much. you know, proof, i know, there had been, you know, so much talk should they still be looking there? could he have fled? and it seems as if possibly, no, he was there all the way along as they thought. outfront now, jim clemente, former fbi profiler who worked on high-profile cases like the d.c. sniper case and the death of jonbenet ramsey. and former prosecutor, wendy murphy. thanks to both. so, jim, you know, you have been with us since the very beginning of this search for brian laundrie. now, we are learning that the fbi found what appear to be human remains, along with laundrie's backpack and notebook in that florida nature reserve. how confident are you that the remains will be brian laundrie's? >> i think it's pretty highly
but they can't tell us what they've collected because it would, you know, misdirect the investigation. >> james, the trip wire, that concerned you as well. obviously it's all concerning, but in terms of an evolution of tactics. >> absolutely. we talked in the early segment about how this is not the unabomber 2.0. this appears much more like the d.c. sniper case, anderson, in 2002, in the month of october for three weeks two snipers paralyzed parts of maryland and virginia. this seems similar in this instance. if, and it's a big if, these seven devices can be linked together. and that link analysis is critical here. if. even the fact that this last device was an insend areay device, let's not make that out to be something benign. we haven't seen it. we don't have details yet. but incendiary device is combustible. it is flammable. it's something designed to cause fire. there are three ways that cause fatalities in bombings. the most onerous one is the overpressure. meaning the pressure that comes out that basically crushes organs and soft tissue.
talking about somebody who fabricated a detonator. that's going to be telling the police a lot, you know, just how dangerous the situation is. but they can't tell us what they've collected because it would, you know, misdirect the investigation. >> james, the trip wire, that concerned you as well. obviously it's all concerning, but in terms of an evolution of tactics. >> absolutely. we talked in the early segment about how this is not the unabomber 2.0. this appears much more like the d.c. sniper case, anderson, in 2002, in the month of october for three weeks. two snipers paralyzed parts of maryland and virginia. this seems similar in this instance. if these seven devices can be linked together, and that link analysis is critical there, even the fact that this last device was an incendiary device, let's not make that out to be something benign. we don't have details yet. but incendiary device is
line that is perfectly clear and string that across a sidewalk or a walkway, this is really getting to be a challenge. i can understand why they are throwing fbi agents, atf and everybody else into the fold here because this individual is really dangerous and let's say for example it is one or two people, they probably built these devices in advance so they have them somewhere, they have the capability to put more devices out. and there was like 10, 12 days between the first bombing and the second and third. and now there is only six days. that interval is getting closer together. and the initial thought they had maybe this was racially motivated, now the last two victims we're told were caucasian, not african-american. so this also takes on like the d.c. sniper case where anyone could have been a victim and therefore everyone in the community felt they could have been victimized too. it is the same type of fear i think that goes through a
>> let's listen together to the tampa police chief. >> we need someone who is thoughtful, cares and has the heart and the fortitude and bravery to step forward and tell us who this person is and give us the identity. i don't need speculation. we don't need profiles. we need names. they talk about more than 2000 tips, no arrests. this has all happened in a month. do you hear some frustration obviously from that police chief and are you surprised that there has not been more solid evidence thus far. >> i am surprised on the one hand. but not on the other. i lived through the d.c. sniper case both from being an individual that lived in the area but also an individual that worked on that case and managed a lot of the investigation that
