Reports of “articles” believed to belong to Brian Laundrie found in the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park are being investigated.

“Partial human remains”, according to NBC News, were found, cited by News Channel 8. The area where the find was made was previously under water.

As the investigation into the disappearance of Brian Laundrie continues, there’s been a sudden increase in activity in the park where law enforcement has focused much of their attention. Laundrie’s parents were at the park, according to the family attorney.

North Port Police have closed off the park. A tent was set up at a site inside the park where a number of law enforcement vehicles are arriving. The Sarasota County Medical Examiner’s Office was called to the scene. Exactly what was found was not released to the media at the time.

According to a statement at an FBI press conference from the park, a backpack and notebook that belonged to Brian Laundrie were found at the site.

Brian Laundrie is the person of interest in the disappearance and death of 22-year-old Gabby Petito.

‘I Love Rock ‘N Roll’ & 11 Other Covers Better Than The Original

• Joan Jett & The Blackhearts – “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll”

  Share

  Want to know the best way to tell a cover is better than the original?  When people often don’t realize a cover is a cover.  That’s how amazing “I Love Rock N Roll” is.

• Huey Lewis and the News – “Heart and Soul”

  Share

  The Huey Lewis version takes away the disco sound and makes it a solid rock hit. The original, by Exile, just didn't have the same punch... or the claps!

• Manfred Mann’s Earth Band – “Blinded By The Light”

  Share

  All due respect to The Boss, but Manfred Mann’s arrangement is just leaps and bounds better.
• Bow Wow Wow – “I Want Candy”

  Share

  The original from 1965 was by a band named "The Strangeloves". The 80's version changed the point of view from a boy to a girl, and Bow Wow Wow a one-hit wonder.

• Joe Cocker – “With A Little Help From My Friends”

  Share

  Speaking of arrangement changes, it takes a lot of guts to cover The Beatles, but Joe Cocker’s cover of “With A Little Help From My Friends” never fails to move a room.

• Aretha Franklin – “Respect”

  Share

  (See explanation for “I Love Rock N Roll.”)
• Janis Joplin – “Me and Bobby McGee”

  Share

  This song was originally recorded by Roger Miller and was written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster, but sweet Pearl’s rendition is obviously the best.

• Soft Cell – “Tainted Love”

  Share

  Gloria Jones originally released “Tainted Love” in 1965, while Soft Cell’s version came out in 1981.

• The Beatles – “Twist and Shout”

  Share

  “Twist and Shout” was originally recorded in 1961 by a group called The Top Notes.  It then became a hit for the Isley Brothers in 1962, and then The Beatles and John Lennon’s iconic vocals happened in 1963, and you know the rest.
• The Clash – “I Fought The Law”

  Share

  Arguably the edgiest cover on the list.  “I Fought The Law” was originally recorded by The Crickets in 1960 and then covered by the Bobby Fuller Four in 1965.  The Clash’s rendition, however, is the only cover that matters.

• The Byrds – “Mr. Tambourine Man”

  Share

  The Byrds’ cover was released the same year Bob Dylan released the original in 1965.  Talk about guts!

• The Jimi Hendrix Experience – “All Along The Watchtower”

  Share

  Man!  When’s Bob Dylan going to catch a break?  “All Along The Watchtower” was released on the Dylan album 'John Wesley Harding' in December 1967.  Hendrix dropped his cover in September 1968.
