I'm going to give another plausable explaination. Petito was emotionally unstable and killed herself. Laudrie just lawyered up thinking that he would be a suspect.
This is why you never ever talk to the police. In a high profile case like this, the police are looking for closure, not necessarily the truth of what actually happened. Anything he says will be used against him. It may make him look terrible, but it's keeping him out of jail for now.
Yep. The only idiot that would talk to them right now is one who wants to go down for murder regardless of what happened. I also think he may have gone into hiding for his own protection.
He has no lawful obligation to just hang around waiting for the cops to come try and question him daily. They can get an arrest warrant or subpoena if he needs to appear and he can comply and appear at that time.
On the other hand, he could be just as crazy as her.
