Stmfd Advocate article today re her habeas trial witness list.

https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/michelle-troconis-habeas-trial-jennifer-dulos-21211681.php

"...Troconis' witness list for the habeas trial includes Colangelo, Bowman, attorney Norm Pattis who represented her boyfriend Fotis Dulos, who died by suicide in January 2020 while facing murder and other charges in his estranged wife's death.

"...Pawel Gumienny, a former employee of Fotis Dulos, and his attorney Lindy Urson are also on the Troconis list. Kent Mawhinney, a friend of Fotis Dulos, and his attorney Jeffrey Kestenband are also on Troconis' potential witness list..."

Petitioners' amended list filed 12/1/25 was reduced down to 10 names likely to be called -- 6 of which are attorneys.

They moved it a lot closer to where Schoenhorn wanted it-I wonder where her new attorney is based? I hope he’s closer to NYC than Hartford, just to make it troublesome for him.

I recall reading earlier that the Habeas Petition would be heard in CIVIL COURT, and assumed Geo Area #19 at Rockville was the known venue--even though the Chief States Attorney- Civil Lit, located in Rocky Hill, CT.

However, the first Motion filed by MT's attorney (AV Patterson, Wethersfield, CT) on 12/6/24 was a Motion for Transfer from Geo Area #19 at Rockville to the Hartford Judicial District, and Judge Emily Wagner denied the Motion by Order dated 12/23/24.

The Court was obviously not persuaded by Team Troconis' argument to transfer to the Hartford:

The reasons for transfer include the increased availability of the Judge and a courtroom for the hearing in Hartford, as well as logistical convenience for witnesses and counsel. The Hartford Judicial District would be more convenient for the parties and witnesses. The courthouse is also better suited to handle any public or media attention that might focus on this case.

I am particularly interested in KM’s participation in this habeas case and wondering how he can support the claim of ineffective counsel? Is it possible that he could actually provide a statement that supports her innocence? I don’t think she’s innocent, but I’m wondering if he could introduce new facts about the crime at this juncture, claiming original counsel failed to investigate this or that? Looking forward to this discussion in January. It just never ends.

KM’s participation interests me, too. It seems to me that she would want to stay far away from him.

It's a screen.

They know he'll only plead the 5th.

1000 page motion says nothing. Witness list has no teeth.

She had the BEST legal advice in her first attorney. It's not his fault she didn't take it.

KM was set to be a witness for the State, but MT did such a great job convicting herself, they didn't need him! That, and he did not make the amended Petitioner's Witness List once the Court cut out MT's fantastical ideas-- based on bad faith.

She’s calling her mom, dad and sisters? I wonder what they can testify to? Now I really want to go to the hearing.

Yes - so do we - well - I want you to go!

I predict Colangelo will win the Academy Award at this hearing and put a pin in it. Such a waste of time (and money).
GO RICK!

What do you think he’ll say (if they let him)? It seemed pretty clear to me, that they were handling MT very respectfully, and only charged her when she continued lying, over and over again. She really thought she was going to lie her way out of trouble, and manage not to give up Fotis-and look what he left her with. I’d love to know if she frantically tried to make a deal with the state after Fotis died, and they told her they were no longer interested.

 

[LosAngeles]

I think Richard made it very clear that in the beginning he wanted her to be a witness and was willing to cut a deal to testify against Fotis, which was Bowman’s goal as well, but when she wasn’t truthful or cooperative, that opportunity vanished. According to Richard, Bowman worked very hard on her behalf to be a witness and not to charge her as a co conspirator, but the three interviews that she volunteered to take part in, blew that opportunity. She lied over and over again. So, I think his testimony regarding the interviews and Bowman’s representation will speak volumes on how well she WAS legally represented and will highlight how ridiculous and completely wasteful this habeas is.

 

[LosAngeles]

...and Jon is going to support the ineffective counsel theory by saying no attorney should let his client go into a police interrogation and answer any and all questions because anything they say can and will be used against them, so if she says one thing and changes her story, that’s a red flag that she’s inconsistent and/or lying vs confused and emotional. It’ll be interesting to watch the process.
