Deceased/Not Found CT - Jennifer Dulos, 50, New Canaan, 24 May 2019 *ARRESTS* #40

My non-medical opinion is that when a person's heart stops beating for 15 to 30 minutes there is a good chance of permanent brain damage, but then again what do I know?

Add to that the potential damage from carbon monoxide poisoning and chances of recovery are even less.

Imo

Exactly.

Yes, but where I was confused was that you would think the bond company issuing the certificate to the State would have known the status of the collateral valuation before issuing the certificate.

The idea that the company didn't have the proper collateral valuation and it had to be kicked back by the State Insurance regulators is a bit nuts as the Judge released based on the bond certificate which doesn't appear to have been worth the paper it was printed on?

Doesn't the State do due diligence on bonding companies? Seems to have been poor diligence on the collateral which baffles me as their business is to know collateral inside and out.

MOO

The state does perform due diligence but they do not make the defendant sit in jail while they complete the complicated process. That's not how it works.

Think of it this way. Millions of fraudulent mortgages were made by fraudulent mortgage brokers unbeknownst to the underwriters who did not audit 100% of their loans until too late or they were in default.

The same holds true in the surety business where a defendant partners with, in this case, another fraud that packaged FD's proposal -- including fraudulent real estate appraisals, to secure his $6 mil bond.

Sureties (as with the mortgage brokers and loan underwriters) have a relationship with their agents to produce good bond applications and this type of incident by FD is not the norm.

Lastly comes the State insurance regulator whose job is to protect the state. The insurance regulator is also reliant on the face of the certificates produced by prequalified firms authorized to do business in the State. However, the regulator does in fact audit/verify the security in a reasonable period of time. For FD's bond, -- it took about 20 days and when the bond failed the test it was immediately scheduled to be pulled at an emergency hearing.

MOO

Deercliff?!!

Could they have been led there by a suicide note? Or a by a co-conspirator, overcome by the emotions of the day?

In 2010, Fotis Dulos’ mother, 77, died after being struck by a Land Rover driven by the family’s nanny in driveway of Avon home

[ChiCubs2016]

looks like he’s intubated to me

Looks that way to me as well.

 

[Misy]

I’m so far behind in here, I don’t know if you’ve all discussed this already, but do you think he wanted to be found alive? Otherwise why wouldn’t he have done this overnight, in the middle of the night? Or was this just spur of the moment this morning?? MOO

 

[Eli9]

I'm in CT, and those pics are definitely not from right now. It hasn't been that light out in at least 4-5 hours.

Thank you

 

[Boxer]

Where on Deercliffe?

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think SM posturing is allowed, only verified MSM.

 

[MsBetsy]

Thanks. They did a good job.

I am just confused, since the Suburban was facing IN, how they could see - from outside of the locked garage - that he was in "obvious medical distress" when sitting in his car. Any thoughts?

Maybe they called out to him and when they saw he was not moving, sitting in a running vehicle, and not responding, they made the logical assumption that he was in distress.

Imo

 

[mickey2942]

Classy people. Not surprised with this short, elegant response.

jmo

Well, they do have to have sympathy for his children. They have lost their mother, and their Father has been charged with her murder, now attempted suicide.

Children of a parent who commits suicide are 50% more likely to attempt suicide than children from families without a parent who has not committed suicide.

Those kids have had so many issues, with the implication from their father that their mother just up and left them. What a monster that man is...

 

[afitzy]

They say that the location is less than a mile from his house.

MOO Sounds like he got in the car ready to go to court, and then decided there was nothing for him anywhere.

I'm not an expert, but I have had 2 family members receive donations. In both cases, they knew very limited info - gender and age and that's it.

jmo

Same. No expert here either, but in my nephew’s case his organs were donated after he OD’d and was declared brain dead. The organization that facilitated the donation also acted as a go-between for communications. Initiation had to be by the recipient, IIRC.

Since then, my sister has received several beautiful letters from the recipients expressing their thanks and telling stories of how their lives have changed since receiving their transplants.

I believe everything has been limited to first name, gender, age, state, and a bit about the circumstances. But apparently allowing limited info to flow between parties is healthy for all concerned, boosts awareness of the need for donors, and helps the surviving family find meaning in a meaningless death.

This is just my understanding and to the best of my recollection. This all happened three years ago.

Was that before or after he ran the hose from the exhaust?

Who lives there now, do you know?

So according to what was posted above FD was notified about 2 hours plus before he was found in the garage that his bind was being revoked? Just making sure I read some of the above posts correctly. By 11:30 when the insurance bond people showed up LE was already on the scene and efforts were underway to save his life?

Yes - per the Courant report-- however, NP and FD knew before 9 AM when they were contacted by the state's attorney and advised about the emergency bond hearing.

Palmetto Surety's attorney, who appeared at FD's residence, was formally delivering notice to FD but he already knew his bond was pulled.

 

[oviedo]

Or...they saw the hose from exhaust pipe. That would be a big clue that he was in distress. jmo

Fotis Dulos in Critical Condition After Suicide Attempt
Snipped
The officers who responded to Dulos' Farmington home found him in a vehicle his garage and he was in medical distress from carbon monoxide poisoning, according to police.

"When officers responded, they could see through a window that Mr. Dulos was sitting in his vehicle and he had obvious signs of medical distress," McKenzie said.

Officers then forced their way in, started to treat Dulos and medics were called in. Dulos was then transported to UConn John Dempsey Hospital.

MT. She's always been hard for me to read. Do you think she is heartbroken and anguished or feeling a bit betrayed?

She's hard for me to read, too. I don't like her so it's hard to find sympathy, but how in the world did she get caught up in this? Why not spill the beans immediately and turn on FD, especially when she has a child. You'd think she would be willing to exchange information in a deal to ensure less of an impact on her child.

Very interested in hearing character insight from others.

edited to add missing words!

So, when his finances were about to be revealed in the divorce case, he had to kill Jennifer to keep them from being exposed.
Now, when his finances were about to be revealed in her murder case (and perhaps send him to jail) he tried to kill himself.

He is willing to kill/die to protect the truth about his finances from being revealed.

From the DM "friend" comments, it seems that FD decided it would be better to die than to endure prison. Why didn't he think of this earlier? Did he really think he was going to get away with it, when he was driving down the Merritt on the 24th, when he was biking along Weed St that morning? Did NP and KS egg him on to believe he could get away with anything? They appeared to have set up an alternate bailout that morning, so clearly they were continuing in that vein.

Does it seem a bit odd to anyone else that nobody was accompanying FD driving down to court this morning? He was just going to hop in the Suburban and drive down there on his own?

It does seem odd; this morning, before all hell broke loose, I asked the question about how he gets to court-does he drive himself, or get escorted by someone from his lawyers office. Seemed like a bad idea, for lots of reasons, to me.

At about the 1:15 mark you can see police looking in the front windows of the garage, that’s how they spotted him
