About :As Fotis Dulos meticulously prepared to end his life on the morning of Jan. 28, he stuffed Styrofoam under the garage door, removed a carbon monoxide detector in the garage and used duct tape to fasten a hose to the tailpipe of his car.
That morning, Dulos talked on the phone with at least three people — a bail bondsman, his lawyer and his new girlfriend, Anna Curry.
A couple of thoughts from the article in the Courant:
CT reported that:
"After talking with Smith, Dulos made one last call. At 10:59 a.m., he called Anna Curry, his girlfriend. Curry told police that she had been staying at the Jefferson Crossing home, but at that time was on an errand to the bank to make a withdrawal for Dulos."
So, was Anna Curry emptying FD's safety deposit box on this "errand"? She seems to be a likely candidate, IMO.
Some of you have wondered where NP was during FD's time of need? We know he was in Washington, D.C. My personal hypothesis is Kevin Smith was notified by the court on the morning of January 28 that the bond was about to be revoked (Colangelo stated he found out around 8:30 A.M.). With NP out of town, Smith and NP probably talked by phone, and NP told Smith to take care of it and tell FD they would be working on getting him a new bond. (Remember when NP paraded out the NY bondsman who was supposedly considering the job...NP wanted it publicly known that he was doing something.)
Things were moving quickly that morning. FD panicked, but must have been floating the idea of ending his life to AC. (Much as he probably floated the theory of making JFD disappear to MT.)
The Hartford Courant states that MT's DNA was found on 1 bag....I don't know how they would know this as the arrest warrant states that her DNA was found:
1. (2) Plastic garbage bags taped together with black tape containing JFD and MT DNA.
2. Swabbing of bag opening and separate bag portion with the DNA OF MT, FD, and JFD.
Details can be found in MT's arrest warrant...it's also a good reminder of "I know nothing" MT's activities:
Arrest warrant for Michelle Troconis
The Hartford Courant continues to lean to the defense side of this case. I don't understand why.
However, we won't forget, eh!
Here's the video of Pattis with bondsman Ira Judelman--after Fotis' suicide attempt, but before his death. NP says he should have contacted Judelman before about the bond, but admits he didn't do so. I don't think either Pattis or Smith was doing anything about the bond before Fotis' suicide attempt. That would explain why Fotis was on the phone with another bondsman just before, and maybe again while, he was gassing himself.
Remember at the last hearing before Judge White, Colangelo referred to a conversation they had in chambers with the judge about one or more properties put up for collateral not having enough equity? So Pattisville knew back then that the bond could be revoked. So why didn't they contact IJ back then? Not just when NP had to grandstand with IJ after FD's dramatic action?
As to MT--one of the most incriminating things against her is the alibi script, to show conspiracy and premeditation. And they just tossed it in the wastebasket for the cops to find, rather than flushing it or burning it!
