Are we sure this article is correct or perhaps dated? I had thought the Judge denied that the deposition could happen when Atty Weinstein wanted it to happen as Atty BM/FD claimed there was insufficient notice etc. for them to prepare and that 'they had other things going on'.

I thought the Judge then said that the deposition of LA would have to be rescheduled and it hasn't been rescheduled so far as I can tell on the CT website. Is anyone else seeing this happen this way or did I miss a motion?
MOO

Weinstein filed another motion to take a dep0 from LA on 11/22

Weinstein filed another motion to take a dep0 from LA on 11/22

Oh, so then the SA article is just dated? Or did Judge issue denial to LA being deposed at all? Have to go back and look as I'm not remembering an out and out denial to the deposition.

Edit to add: Atty Weinstein filed again after the Judge initially ruled on the LA deposition (with 2 days notice it appeared to FD/Atty BM), so it appears she will be deposed at a later date as @sds71 posted above). Very confusing.

I think the article title is just misleading. They are talking about the Judge denying the emergency deposition but not totally shutting it down.MOO

Are you able to check if la and bc took the class or got their licenses?

LA an BC did not have Real Estate Salesperson's or Broker Licenses in CT

Replying to my own post! Also, what was the fascination with Farmington and why did JD want and agree to live there? Maybe FD wanted to be there because so much farther away from the Farber family and isolated Jennifer. I have to think that the building/purchase of these over-priced properties was part of a scheme to funnel money and FD knew full well there would never be a profit when all was said and done. JMO.

FD already had a home in Canton, CT, with first wife. It was this house that his parents also lived and then he and JF, when they first married.

IMO.

HAHAHAHAHA.
Let’s trade, Fotis. Bring us your paperwork, we’ll give you hers. Deal?

 

[afitzy]

Just wanted to post this tidbit from the Berreth trial here as the quote seemed 'eerily similar' IMO to the FD quote, "I am not a monster" which I believe was said on Dateline and prior to that in Family Court where he claimed to not be, "Charles Manson"...

IMO you could removed PatrickFrazee from the below quote and simply insert FotisDulos and it would apply.

Wonder what it is about these folks like Patrick Frazee or Fotis Dulos that at the end of the day simply believe they are 'misunderstood' and not 'monsters' when the behaviour appears to be that of a psychopath IMO:

In notes, #PatrickFrazee claims innocence in #KelseyBerreth's death: "I'm not the monster they say I am. I don't know what happened or where she went. Honestly, my wheels are spinning out of control the closer it gets to trial. Any advice how to defend my innocence?"

IMO.

Exactly. Then he built houses in Avon. And his parents eventually had the house on Deercliff Rd in Avon.
The Farmington Valley was familiar territory.

Was it originally a Fore Group house?
Sure looks like it.

FD quikbooks have been subpoenaed since 2018 ( ibelieve) but he did not comply.

I don’t think FD will ever comply in any way-the authorities will have to confiscate anything they want from him.

If you look at Steffen Reich's listings, he must have 5 lots for sale on Ely Road. Are these all "FD's" properties?

One of the cases before the Connecticut Supreme Court during its fourth session is the Jennifer Dulos murder case, which has received state and nationwide publicity ever since the 51-year-old mother of five went missing in May.
State v. Dulos
The Connecticut Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments Dec. 12 on the Jennifer Dulos murder case, which has received state and nationwide publicity ever since the 51-year-old mother of five went missing in May. Her husband, Fotis, has been a prime suspect in her disappearance. The couple was going through a divorce at the time of Jennifer Dulos’ disappearance.
At issue before the state’s high court is whether the trial court properly entered a gag order barring defendant Fotis Dulos, attorneys, witnesses and law enforcement from making public statements in the case, and whether those statements pose a substantial likelihood of material prejudice to the case.
The case has also centered on First Amendment rights, and raised questions about what constitutes protected speech in a criminal proceeding. Justices are now set to weigh whether that gag order violates Fotis Dulos’ Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial, and his free speech rights under federal and state constitutions.
The state filed a motion for a gag order that would apply to counsel for both sides, according to the Supreme Court’s synopsis of the case. The motion followed statements by defense counsel regarding the wife’s disappearance and leaks from law enforcement sources, according to court documents. The trial court granted the state’s request, and then went farther by ruling the gag order would apply to witnesses and law enforcement.
The trial court acknowledged that the gag order could affect the First Amendment rights of the affected parties, according to the Supreme Court synopsis of the case. But it found those rights had to be balanced with the defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial, which media coverage could compromise.
Norm Pattis, the defense’s lead counsel, appealed the trial court’s ruling. Pattis has spoken frequently to the press about the case.

Very well could be.
Interesting that 15 Ely Rd has sale pending but the house is yet to be built.
MOO.

It's common. It's called "build to suit". Better be real careful who you're dealing with though. IMO.

 

[Nanobody]

According to public records it looks like the property that 15 Ely Road would be built on was purchased by a friend of FD's on 10/01/19... IMO that is extra unusual because said friend stated in 2017 that they did not want to buy a custom house from FD until his divorce was over according to emails from the court documents. Interesting. Good find citygirl and Tink!

Edit to MOO!
