    GABBY PETITO: In Memory of Gabby | Analysis Continues and Signs of Domestic Violence Feb 25, 2025
    Show notes

    This episode was recorded on September 22, 2021, but we never shared it until now.

    Gabby Petito's body was found three days before recording this episode. She had been strangled to death, just as Dr John had explained was a concern, after seeing Gabby demonstrate to Moab Police how Brian held her jaw during their argument that day.

    We continue to assess what we saw in the body cam footage, and we dedicate this episode to all victims of domestic violence.

    Host, Criminal psychologist Dr John Matthias, has worked for years with victims of domestic violence.

    GABBY PETITO: Full analysis of Body cam footage with Dr John Matthias, Criminal Psychologist Feb 20, 2025
    Show notes

    This full analysis of the Moab Utah Police body Cam footage was recorded on September 16th, 2021, while Gabby Petito was still missing. It has never been published on this podcast, until now.

    Host, Criminal psychologist Dr John Matthias, has worked for years with victims of domestic violence and he shares here what he recognized the very day the footage came down– while the world still hoped to bring Gabby home.

    If Gabby Petito taught us anything, it is that signs of domestic violence and abusive relationships are often hidden in plain sight.
