Totally. They sneaked him out of their own house, and afterwards they knew exactly where to find him. I don't think you can hold them personally responsible for Gabbi's death, but they are absolutely responsible for Brian's. His life might have been saved through coming clean. But for whatever reason they really did not want that, I still cannot wrap my mind around that at all. It's like they just couldn't face the truth themselves, but the thing is that that idea conflicts with the "burn after reading" letter, at least with the most obvious interpretation of it.

I thought it was stated that where his body was found was his known favorite spot in that area.

Yeah but they knew what was going to happen. If they were really worried about his disappearance they would have given this information to the police and not just wait for the park to reopen

That area was covered in water when the police began searching. It wasn’t until the area had dried out a bit that they had access to it.
