QAnon theorists are bizarrely claiming that YouTuber Gabby Petito is a ‘crisis actor’ being used to ‘distract the public’. 

After hearing the tragic news that the 22-year-old’s death had been ruled a homicide, conspiracists took to numerous Telegram channels and discussed the high-profile case.

According to the Insider, some of them claimed the ‘whole situation’ was being used as some kind of distraction from President Joe Biden’s ‘failures’.

Referencing the 2020 election votes, one person penned: “Somethings not right about this whole situation… this is clearly Black Ops to cover for Biden failures.

“Was he ever real? Is SHE? Another false flag right before the audits.”

Joining in, a second pitched: ‘This whole case was nothing but an FBI distraction, literally on every news channel.”

Some even went as far as saying that Gabby Petito and her fiancé Brian Laundrie, who is on the FBI ‘Most Wanted’ list, have ‘made up’ names.

“Think it’s interesting her name is Gabby Petito and his name is Brian Laundrie. Gabby Petito = small talk … Brian Laundrie = dirty laundry. Always suspicious of missing persons making huge news,” another mused.

In agreement, a second added: “Brian Laundrie? Brian = Brain. Laundrie = Laundry = Wash. BRAINWASH is what his name means. Definitely an operation.”

On Sunday, Petito’s body was reportedly found in Bridger-Teton National Forest.

Currently, officials are searching for Laundrie, as he’s been named a ‘person of interest’.

Special agent Michael Schneider said: “Brian Laundrie has been named as a person of interest.

“Anyone with information concerning Mr Laundrie’s role in this matter or his current whereabouts should contact the FBI.”
