Silver Alert CT- Jennifer Dulos, 50, New Canaan, 24 May 2019 #7 *ARRESTS*

[ab01]

I'm somewhat skeptical that FD would have disposed of JD's remains in a well frequented skiing pond.

With that said I learned long ago never to underestimate the brazen stupidity of individuals like FD that think they can get away with a crime like this

I just hope LE has enough evidence to charge FD with or without the recovery of JD's body

With that said I really hope that they can recover JD so that the family can give her the proper burial that she and the family deserves

It would without a doubt help strengthen their case against FD and MT and help bring at least a bit of comfort for her family

My only hesitation on the Nanny stopping at the house with the kids before going to NY, is it sounds like there was quite a bit of blood in the garage. I would think the Nanny would take the children through the garage to access the house. Wouldn't they have seen what the police saw as soon as they entered the garage? MOO.

And, grandma said she maintained clothes, toys, bedroom, etc. for kids at her home. So, may not need to grab anything.

This.

We were talking about establishing a reward fund yesterday for information. Clearly, the family, while the have the money to do so, doesn't think it's necessary. It leads me to believe police have way more evidence than we know of and are concentrating on finding the body. Clearly not much information is available about this, and the almost 500 tips they've received aren't helping in that matter.

Going along with that idea somewhat ... I do remember when we all pretty much assumed Frazee was involved in Kelsey Berreth's disappearance at the time, but we had no idea how they were going to get there. Once that arrest warrant dropped -- we all read/saw the large amount of evidence(CCTV, digital data, etc )had been amassed putting him at her apartment and pretty much obviously guilty of the crime. I hope this case turns out the same way.

What has me worried, however, is how I keep going back to the case of Andreen McDonald. https://www.ksat.com/news/husband-of-missing-businesswoman-andreen-mcdonald-makes-court-appearance

She is missing, the police went to her house shared with her husband and found her blood, charred remains, a shovel, and torn up receipts in the trash that showed items used for disposal of a body had been purchased. Her body has yet to be found and her husband was charged with "Tampering with evidence". He made bail and is currently a free man while they still have no idea where poor Andreen is.

I pray JD's case doesn't get stuck in this limbo.

 

[Jodiwankenobi8]

It is rather unusual. What evidence do the LE have?

More than we know!

 

[Inthedetails]

It is kind of like them saying she’s diabetic and needed insulin. SO weak! Not fit! If her brain didn’t create enough seratonin, and she took medication to correct that, it makes her responsible and proactive.

Yes. She might have been frail in that she was a tiny, thin person and stressed out, but nothing we've read about Jennifer suggests she was falling apart. She faced the big responsibilities and tasks in her life - taking care of her kids and getting a divorce from a controlling and vicious man. She was standing up! Perhaps unhappy about the situation (who wouldn't be?!) and scared, but not weak in the slightest. Nope, not at all.

That lawyer is going down the wrong path if he intends to go after Jennifer, imo. Really bad idea.

[Eli9]

He's going to go after Jennifer and I hope that plan BACKFIRES.

jmo

It will backfire IMO. And yes, he's going after transcripts and court records and will try to make her look paranoid. He states in the video that she has made false complaints about FD. I'm sure he will describe her "fear" as unjustified. That's okay Pattis, keep talking. Your giving a lot of good strategy advice for the prosecution JMO

 

[Jodiwankenobi8]

Some schools feed children lunch on half days. Can we please stop with this? I think we have “scenarioed” this out! (This is not directed to you pink and green mom) to all, I think we have hammered this one enough.

Isn’t that the purpose of the thread? To brainstorm together? I just scroll over things that don’t inspire me. I think it’s the best thing abt WS. So many points of view. Together we are more than the sum of our parts. JMO

In the case of Elizabeth Shelley a few weeks ago and Abby and Libby 2 years ago, the area in which they were found was previously searched. Little Elizabeth was just a block from her home...... In a lot of cases a body is not taken too far..... If FD took JD in a vehicle, IMO there would be a a lot of evidence, blood, hair, etc... LE must have all of his vehicles because the news report said he went for a jog, grocery, and he rented a car....

I’m hoping LE has a ton of evidence and will file murder charges any day now. Although they don’t have her body yet, I think they have enough circumstantial evidence to charge him. IMO

Absolutely this is the purpose - we just don't sleuth children ever. or family members or friends. Only the arrested/POI.

What troubles me is they attempted to raise his bail to $850,000 by divulging the DNA/blood from her faucet - that wasn't enough. So it seems their strategy is to keep this evidence under wraps and let him be out on bail, albeit monitored? Just doesn't seem fair IMO.

State police search water skiing pond in Avon that Fotis Dulos frequented as search for Jennifer Farber Dulos enters 20th day
snipped
Colangelo used the detail to argue against a bail reduction for Dulos and asked the judge instead to raise the bond to $850,000. He told the judge there was no explanation for Dulos’ blood to be on the faucet. Colangelo said while Dulos had been at the New Canaan home on May 22, two days before his wife disappeared, visiting his children for dinner, witnesses told police he never entered the home and therefore could not have left blood on the faucet that night. He said the search for JD is “a fluid investigation” and new evidence is coming in every day

Wow! Just read the article you posted. There are a lot of statements in there that have not been reported in MSM before IMO. Like how when JD left FD and took the kids. I was always under the impression that she already had the NC house rented but this article states that, according to FD, she went to a NYC hotel and had hired...wait for it...armed guards.
Plus the article talks about an email FD sent JD in December of 2017. Very interesting, thank you for posting it.

Excellent. Thank you.

It is rather unusual. What evidence do the LE have?

It's just a hunch, but I trust that law enforcement is doing a thorough and methodical job on this case. The fact that much of the evidence has not been leaked is a good sign, IMO. What worries me the most is that even if he was sloppy during the act due to possible unforeseen events, he may have very carefully planned the disposal and therefore, she might be almost impossible to locate. IMO, he seems very smug and comfortable, like he knows LE won't find her. JMO

Well JD figured out a plan to rent a home somewhere else. Rented it, without FD knowledge. Got the kids in the SUV under the guise of visiting her Father's grave. Relocating her children and herself.Doesn't sound to frail to me! So, she was getting her guts and instinct back. The fog was clearing for JD.

 

[Curious in CT]

That's what I've been thinking - that he thought the nanny would contact him when JD wasn't where she was supposed to be on Friday and when the nanny couldn't reach JD. Then, FD would go get the kids. That is pure speculation on my part, not fact. Working theory (that has holes in it!).


jmo

I have wondered about this too. Once the "baby" launched into full-blown toddlerdom, she probably didn't have enough hands to keep full. But once they were all in school (three-ish years ago -right before she separated from FD), she would presumably had more time to devote to her avocation.

 

[Jodiwankenobi8]

I speculate that the court order prohibited him from entering the house and he could have said that in a sardonic manner.

Wouldn’t he have said, “Ohh, don’t want to be held in contempt...” DNA in a particular location is only relevant if there’s a crime. Why would he be thinking a crime may occur?

 

[spaz1959]

The prosecution will counter with proving controling, anger issues, and blood evidence in bags and video.

 

[Deleted member 229974]

I think there are a few things at play here

Mainly LE knows there likely are very few individuals that have pertinent information and they have identified and communicated with those individuals already. Hence a reward is not going to be helpful in this case.

Secondly I believe they are investigating this as a recovery effort and not a rescue. It’s not uncommon for LE not to want to involve the general public when there is no pressing time as in being able to save a human life. Generally for evidentiary reasons LE likes to keep the public away unless they are deemed helpful, I don’t believe they think it would be helpful here

Jmo

No to mention all the nut jobs out there who will be calling in with ridiculous information just for the chance of getting the cash reward.

 

[Jodiwankenobi8]

I think he stated JD lived under a false name. What is his strategy behind this interview? Many things stood out to me. Mainly, FD being caught discarding the bags is a huge hurdle. NP said "How he came into possession of the bloody clothes is a very interesting question and we are working on that. When the time comes, we will have something to say." He also insinuated that JD may just be "seriously injured."

JD and MT are very much together, IMO. NP says FD loves MT and would like "nothing better than to call her and say I love you." Really? I can't even imagine how his children would feel hearing this comment while their mother is still missing and presumed murdered.

Wow! His concern should be his children, not signaling MT. Vomit

 

[Jodiwankenobi8]

I agree, he's trying to paint JD as a person with mental health issues, possibly having done something to herself. Not sure how that explains the blood splatter in the garage or the evidence in the trash bags, we'll see. I have a feeling that rather than explaining (I can't imagine an explanation for this), the lawyer will keep redirecting and obfuscating.

If you do a person search on her, she does go by other names. I thought that she might have been married before, but there is no evidence of a previous marriage that I have been able to uncover.

And, don’t writers often use pen names?

Exactly. Going after a likable mom is not going to look good, especially in comparison to how FD is unlikable. MT is unlikable too.

Who will the jury sympathize with - JD who acted bravely in the face of her fears, or MT who openly moved into JD's marital home, or FD who was the cause of JD moving out and MT moving in?! And that's just for starters. In any comparison between how JD has conducted herself and how FD and MT have behaved, FD and MT are the ones who look bad.

No "mental illness" will change the fact that JD behaved like a loving, honorable mom who was disrespected and humiliated by her husband and her husband's mistress.

Going after JD is going to look pathetic.
