I'm wondering if he showed emotion at that statement because he knew it was from MT - and that surprised/worried him.
Total speculation, and I admit, wishful thinking.

YES!!!! And what a way to start the case..... with an F-bomb.Did I just hear "Get the f out of the way" from his attny getting in the car?
You don’t ever want your client in the jumpsuit. They were horribly unprepared. This lawyer is legitimately unimpressive. He’s done more harm than good. IMOSo, the lawyer wasn't prepared with the passport today and also didn't bring a change of clothes. Kinda thoughtless...or was there some purpose in that forgetfulness??

I recall that during court it was announced they were not to have contact.. unless I’m confusing what Pattis was saying about MT and her attorney refusing to speak with him. I’m going to have to go back and watch it again.Do we know if FD is allowed contact with MT? I didn't see that as part of his bond restrictions.
Oh I am sure a couple of burner phones will be in their future.I recall that during court it was announced they were not to have contact.. unless I’m confusing what Pattis was saying about MT and her attorney refusing to speak with him. I’m going to have to go back and watch it again.
going to be interesting to see if the kids will have to give testimony.Per Ch. 8 reporter: FD blood supposedly found on faucet at JD house. This allegation was refuted by Defense by saying FD had been in the house visiting the children a few days prior. Prosecutor said they have witnesses to state the FD had NEVER been to the JD house.

Have to disagree as we have seen zero evidence of FD as a loving and concerned parent. My suspicion is that he first wanted the children only because they were the life of JD and now that she is not in the picture the children represent money and never having to work again so long as he has access to their trust funds. We have seen zero remorse or even curiosity from FD via a statement to confirm that his children are ok and he is thinking of them, or SOMETHING. We have seen zero concern or caring either for the missing JD or his children.I bet if we see any emotion from FD, it will be during the custody hearings.
Pattis & Co. will financially take care of Pattis & Co. based on prior experience watching them. I do believe the judge ruled against the firm taking control of the 401K though. My guess is Pattis & Co. will drop FD like a hot potato when the cash runs out as pro bono anything isn't really their style. Curious how atty replacement works midway through a potential murder trial? Could be tricky but perhaps such a disruption is part of their strategy.Replying again. His lawyer really wanted to just take control of the 401K instead of having to remove money from it and made many references to that in court. Maybe the funds haven't been withdrawn.
Guess it's been released as a crime scene then. ?Fotis Dulos posted bond around 3:45 p.m. One of his lawyers, Rich Rochlin, says he is expected to return to his Jefferson Crossing home in Farmington

What’s “in the best interest of the children” is very subjective. She definitely has wiggle room.I would think this Judge who is aware of his behavior during this process - has to look at her prior order (supervised sat/sun no overnight, monitored speakerphone conversations) and ask herself - what has changed? Why would I alter my ruling? Why would I bar an absent mother's Mom from intervening and look at the case law and custody under CT law - and at the very least IMO rule Mom can step in act as JD did, and FD can have what he had before. or she can have common sense and keep the order not allowing him to see the children in place while this plays out. I will be interested to see her ruling and then Mom's reaction. JMO
What did I miss?It would no surprise me one bit
We already know the DT tried to make contact with MT
Likely to try to find out who’s side she was on and what she told investigators
MT attorneys shut it down by telling FD DT to take a hike

It does feel like a punch in the gut.Feels like a kick in the gut, doesn't it.
Sigh.
I know this isn't over yet, though.

It was reported that the search warrant had expired and that FD could return to his Jefferson Crossing home. As of this moment, also reported, he is on I 95 going north towards Farmington.Guess it's been released as a crime scene then. ?
Goody. I wouldn't want to be one of his neighbors.....It was reported that the search warrant had expired and that FD could return to his Jefferson Crossing home. As of this moment, also reported, he is on I 95 going north towards Farmington.
MOO
Absolutely. Pattis repeatedly and confidently stated that FD would be bonding out but wasn't prepared with any of the materials FD needed. I, on the other hand, am thrilled that FD in his orange prison garb will be plastered on the evening news tonight. HAHA!You don’t ever want your client in the jumpsuit. They were horribly unprepared. This lawyer is legitimately unimpressive. He’s done more harm than good. IMO
What did I miss?
