Still Missing CT - Jennifer Dulos, 50, New Canaan, 24 May 2019 *ARRESTS* #58

[Megnut]

And we're back.

 

[Diddian]

Oh, okay! So the ponchos came in at the clean up at Mountain Spring?

I suspect there was an intermediate scene - neither 69 Welles Ln nor 80 MS Rd. JFD's body left 69 Welles Ln at 10:25 am. FD in his own black Chevy Suburban and MT in the white Jeep arrive in tandem (him following her) at 80 MS Rd at 1:36 pm.

And MT cannot account for her own time after around 11:00 am-ish. On the activity log (LE called alibi script), MT indicates that after morning errands (photo with store robot, visit to return a purse to a friend) and visiting with a friend to say "bye" shortly after 11, she drove to the waterski pond but no one was there to pull her. Then she claims on that log that she was at 4JC from noon until 3:30, when she claims she took cleaning items to 80 MS Rd. Subsequently, she changed various times when talking to LE.

 

[Megnut]

Witness is IDing a sponge. Sponge was wet and debris was attached to it. Grass or leafy material.

 

[Megnut]

Witness IDing a black glove.

Now that the photos have been validated and entered into evidence, now the State is entering into evidence the actual items.

 

[Megnut]

State enters two black gloves into evidence and now a second pair of black gloves because they appeared to have specks of blood on them. (He first said bloodlike, then blood.) Identifies bloodlike substance on the white logo and specks on multiple aspects of the gloves.

 

[Megnut]

Witness IDs a small black bag with a bloodlike substance, item is admitted.

 

[Sundog]

Jennifer's mother, Gloria, is a strong woman but seeing these items in the court room has to be extremely difficult for her. Nonetheless, she will endure it if it means justice for Jennifer and the children.

 

[Megnut]

Witness explains why evidence is preserved in paper bags. He explains "so it can breathe". In plastic, it could degrade.

 

[Megnut]

Witness IDs keys.

JS asks if the witness tried the keys into anything. Or if anyone did.

Objection.

Defense says they're not relevant.

State says everything in the trash is relevant, whether tested or not. Her offer of proof is that this is the item and it was seized.

Court is going to sustain the relevancy objection.

 

[Megnut]

MOO

[Plesse tell me the Prosecutor is changing her gloves after handling each item of evidence. ]

MOO

Witness IDs keys.

Objection.

Defense says they're not relevant.

State says everything in the trash is relevant, whether tested or not. Her offer of proof is that this is the item and it was seized.

Court is going to sustain the relevancy objection.

Not relevant?

A full set of keys in the same garbage bin as a number of bloody items recovered by officers in a missing person investigation with an already identified potential subject known to have dumped there?

Unbelievable.

 

[Megnut]

Witness is IDing zip ties. With a bloodlike substance.

JS is objecting to the witness opining.

State enters zipties into evidence.

 

[Diddian]

Two of the zip ties appear to have been used and subsequently cut.

The other two appear not to have been used (although one of these intact zip ties does have bloodlike substance on it).

All four appear to be about 36" in length.

 

[Megnut]

Not relevant?

A full set of keys in the same garbage bin as a number of bloody items recovered by officers in a missing person investigation with an already identified potential subject known to have dumped there?

Unbelievable.

MOOMOOMOO

What is the Judge thinking? As the State indicated, everything in that trash is relevant. Did the Judge think that, since there's no testimony of bloodlike substances, the keys aren't relevant?

I'm stunned. They might prove MOST relevant! I hope they will come back in, via another witness.

MOOMOOMOO

 

[Megnut]

Witness is IDing cut and intact zipties, with bloodlike substances. Two uncut ties have no visible blood.

 

[Megnut]

Close up photo of cut zipties. [Very bloody.]

 

[Megnut]

Witness is IDing a white towel with bloodlike substance.

State enters towel into evidence.

 

[Megnut]

Witness IDs a broken mop or broom handle. Seized because of a bloodlike substance.

State enters mop handle into evidence.

Not relevant?

Unbelievable.

Unreal.

 

[Curious-A]

That “bent” red mop handle shows how hard he/they were mopping trying to clean up the blood in the garage.

Or it was broken to fit inside garbage can imo
