they lived just down the road from us, they were shunned from the start with protesters outside their house

they should be ashamed of their actions and wound up lossing their child too due to their bad decisions

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.

Torturing people doesn’t make anyone feel better, and in fact makes good people feel even worse. Why do people make comments like this?

Believe me, if there is an iota of conscience with the Landries, their guilt and the death of their son are torture enough.

I doubt it, because Gabby’s Parents constantly begged for answers and they gave them nothing. Doesn’t sound like guilt to me.
