Brian is on the run still.
Florida fugitive Brian Laundrie’s sister told protesters outside her Lakewood Ranch home Monday that her family has been ignoring her following the disappearance of her brother and the death of his fiancée.
When asked if her parents were helping Brian Laundrie evade authorities, she said, “I don’t know” and that she hadn’t been able to speak with them.
“I’m in the boat where I’m getting ignored by my family and thrown under the bus by my family’s attorney,” Cassie Laundrie said to a group of protesters Monday in video shared by TikTok user @chroniclesofolivia.
The lawyer Cassie Laundrie seemed to be referencing, Steve Bertolino, blamed the media. “I do not represent Cassie Laundrie,” he told Fox News Digital in a text message Monday night. “Cassie’s comments can only be attributed to the press twisting my words and hers, which were only given to clarify prior mischaracterizations by the press, with the hopes of further sensationalizing this tragic story.”
Cassie Laundrie made her first public remarks since an ABC News interview last month to a group of protesters at her home while a manhunt is underway for her brother, who is the subject of a federal warrant for alleged debit card fraud.
That exposure was triggered after Duane “Dog” Chapman, also known as Dog the Bounty Hunter, uncovered evidence first that the Laundrie family went camping with Brian on Labor Day and later that Cassie visited them.
