In the News Gabby Petito’s parents aren’t done fighting in new Netflix doc As they discuss the series’ release, Gabby’s parents — her mother Nichole Schmidt, stepfather Jim Schmidt, father Joe Petito, and stepmother Tara Petito — reflect on their daughter’s murder, her vibrant spirit, and their ongoing efforts to transform tragedy into meaningful action with the Gabby Petito Foundation and beyond. Visit our Website Gabby touched so many people. She touched the world, and by getting her story out there to more viewers, maybe it’ll save one more life. We’ve already received so many messages saying, “Because of Gabby’s story, I got out of that relationship.” That’s why we started the foundation as well, to help others and get resources in their hands.
