Coroner: Gabby Petito’s cause of death was strangulation

The Teton County coroner announced Gabby Petito’s cause of death was strangulation and the manner of death was homicide. Petito was reported missing on September 11. She had been traveling on a road trip with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, who returned to Florida without her and hasn’t been in over a month. Dr. Brent Blue is the Teton County coroner. He tells Anderson Cooper “there is no evidence that this was done by any kind of animal” and “we believe this is strangling by human being.” The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is considering making changes to its guidance on taking a daily aspirin to prevent heart disease and stroke. CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta joins AC360 to explain the possible changes and says “they’re not saying you should stop” taking an aspirin if you’ve already been taking one.
