The Wyoming U.S. Attorney’s office dismissed an indictment against Brian Laundrie in the wake of the FBI’s announcement that it is closing its investigation into his case.
U.S. District Court Chief Judge Scott Skavdahl granted a motion to dismiss bank fraud charges against Laundrie “for the reason that the Defendant is deceased,” according to a Wednesday court filing. Steve Bertolino, Laundrie’s family’s attorney, provided no comment on Thursday.
