True, but possible connections into the medical community in terms of supplies etc. could have value here as could possible connections into Miami/So. FL, Latin, Central and South America communities. Southern FL I believe retains the title as the capital of misuse of legal pharma drugs even after continued attempts by the US Govt to change the situation. The reality is that medical professionals are often part of the chain of illegal distribution of pharma drugs and its not just a FL issue, but a national issue.
I still am finding it stunning that at 45 yo. that MT cannot take care of herself or her life and now finds herself in the situation of having to be 'baby sat' by Mama A and also not have the financial wherewithal to take care of herself and is a single mother to boot. We see Mama A hoovering around MT like a hen taking care of a sick chick at court appearances and we see a zombie looking MT showing up in Court, appearance after appearance. As others (most notably gitana1) said, the 'MT Show' is most likely an act with an end game that is unclear and most recently included a visit to Stamford Hospital.
MT invested I guess nearly 4-5 years (depending on when affair started) in waiting for a guy that by all accounts in a pathological liar and a cheat. Her family seemed totally vested in the relationship and she moved her daughter into 4Jx practically as JFd and the 5 children were pulling out of the drive. I really wonder if MT realised that Fd was lying about the divorce and the money and that is what they were fighting about? Fd never ever demonstrated in Family Court that he had any willingness to end the the divorce. Never IMO. MT seemed to actively be fighting with Fd and pushing for finalization of the divorce so that she could accomplish her goals in the relationship, but it simply wasn't happening. But, if MT had any doubts about Fd telling the truth then why did she still stay? Did MT do many things that we aren't yet aware of and Fd held these actions over her head to compel her to stay? IDK. We saw a willing MT in the 123 Hunter escapade that smelled kinda like bank fraud and certainly seemed designed to circumvent financial reporting that Fd was required to make in Family Court too. Did MT think all these things were a joke or that by helping Fd she was getting revenge on JFd?
So, why stay? Divorce wasn't moving, money had to be tight and an issue and it didn't appear that MT was going to be "Queen of 4Jx" ever as it didn't even belong to Fd. Fd bank debt was ballooning and he was living off of credit cards which seemed to be kept current by magic (or more bank loans!).
Did MT realise that the house was owned 50:50 at one point and was a marital asset? I'm just baffled by her seeming stupidity in not doing basic due diligence on the guy she was with (I think she knew and yet still stayed)! Fd sent MT into the city allegedly to get info on HF will and probate matter. Yet, MT or Mama A couldn't take a trip down to the Stamford Courthouse and read just a bit about the Dulos divorce action which at that time would have been unsealed? It all seems simply hard to believe and improbable that MT didn't understand what was going on with Fd. Simply don't buy it.
Not only did MT stay in the relationship but she IMO was vested and involved in everything that seemed have happened with FORE and Fd and we see this play out over and over from AW1 to AW3 and it just keeps getting piled deeper and deeper for MT. MT appeared to feed the Fd ego, get the homebuilding awards and keep up the facade of FORE which was really a sham IMO, take care of the computers and knew the IT specialist and no doubt knew what was there as it appears she kept very close tabs on Fd and was quite jealous of JFd. We saw MT front and centre for the 123 Hunter transaction which had Fd giving her $75,000 cash for a downpayment etc. Was MT responsible for dealing directly with Sue Morin who was the bank officer at Farmington/People's Bank. How many other things did Fd have MT do over the years that we aren't even aware of yet?
Atty Bowman in Court last week I think had a total whopper when he said MT had no motive in this alleged murder of JFd. I absolutely disagree 1000%.
I've been wondering a lot about Atty Bowman and whether he is in control of his client or if others around MT are manipulating her situation and representation and he simply shows up for court dates? I do very much wonder if MT continues to lie not only to Atty Bowman but LE? No doubt Atty Bowman has been dealt a weak deck of cards with his client MT but her situation seems to be getting worse from a legal perspective and NOT better! It seems that possible State and Federal charges might be coming down the pike too and civil litigation with GF at some point for wrongful death also has to be inevitable. YET, Atty Bowman allowed his client to lie to LE for over 3 months. Why? I find it hard to believe he was so stupid as to not realise she way lying? Or, is he simply that disconnected from everything going on that he simply doesn't care and so is just going through the motion of seeing his client self sabotage and legally implode as seems to be playing out in front of our eyes in this tragic case. Its also baffling that Atty Bowman allows his client to chat and lie to LE while he himself says nothing. Given all the lying going on from his client its probably a safe move to not speak but when he does speak in court its to say something as unbelievable as "MT has no motive in this crime". If that is the strategy then I'm really curious why Atty Bowman things it might work, as there is nothing remotely believable about it at all given the situation and relationship with Fd. It was one thing when his client said she was on Albany blowing bubbles and speaking with Petu on the phone but AW3 made it clear that MT was out of the Raptor and participating in getting rid of evidence. The idea that she was emptying bags eliminates the ability to say she didn't know what was in her bags and the forensic evidence confirms this completely.
But what made the Atty Bowman statement about MT having no motive in this case so curious IMO is that he said it with zero affect as if it were a fact. It was then that I seriously questioned whether he understood his client or the situation at all or was he just that good of a fibber and was looking for any way in the world to diminish the role of his client in what seemed to be a giant pond of quicksand of growing evidence from the State and where with each passing day his client simply sunk deeper and deeper and yet STILL kept on lying to him (possibly) and LE?
MT had no motive? Really?
Why does Atty Bowman think MT stayed with Fd?
She was a 45 yo woman who by all accounts had a sketchy non existent work history, no professional credentials, didn't really appear to do much of anything at FORE and self described as a proud stay at home mom! Her morals were suspect based on the MSM reports of her flaunting her affair with Fd even whilst JFd was at 4Jx and god only knows about her ethics!
The MT child support would run out in 6 years or so and so how would she then support herself? Unknown. And yet, Atty Bowman says she has no motive! Ha!
I think its the oldest motive in the book, especially when the end goal is to not work and to not take responsibility for taking care of yourself financially.
To be fair, Fd was really no different than MT and this is why I think they were so well matched. Fd was also just a relationship grifter who really had no interest in work and found it simply easier to live off the wealth of others in order to survive.
Where BOTH Fd and MT made a mistake IMO was choosing to kill in order to not to have to work another day in their lives and I think any jury will see the very conscious relationship choices that BOTH Fd and MT made along the way and its disturbing to see Atty Bowman dismiss this fundamental fact about his client IMO.
I do believe that the trust funds set up for the Dulos children were some incentive to Fd and it was why the phone most likely was on during the Albany trip as he was waiting to hear from LA. But, I also believe that MT would never have stayed with Fd if she weren't aware of the money or the promise of money and a life of leisure. As by all accounts that is all MT was all about, a good time and party and she had no interest in working or taking care of herself or being a responsible person or parent IMO too and her relationship history was such that she had played the same game before.
By all accounts MT is simply a 45 yo single mother who functions as a child and has a history of latching on to married men who she then simply uses to take care of her financially. If you look at the MT history its quite clear and its baffling why Atty Bowman is choosing to not acknowledge it as it will be as clear as day to any jury member taking a good hard look at his client.
I'm not convinced Fd gave a rat's
about MT even though he proclaimed to love her (or was enamoured by her), but I do think he wanted her around for his purposes as a playmate and as someone who seemed to do what she was told, although quite badly it seems as she couldn't even stay on script with the alibi scripts. But MT was in the relationship with Fd for a reason and had any number of times in the relationship when she could have simply left but made a conscious decision to stay and once she stayed she became intimately involved in what was going on in Fd's life (and by extension the life and death of JFd IMO).
Fd has been getting the press coverage due to his interviews and the ongoing issue of verbal diarrhea from Atty. P. and Pattisville in this case. But AW3 made it crystal clear IMO that MT was an actively involved co-conspirator who played a very critical role in the planning and execution of the alleged murder of JFd and was also deeply involved in the activities of FORE.
MOO
