Changes to the way Connecticut family courts handle “high conflict” and uncontested divorces were underway long before Jennifer Dulos disappeared while involved in a bitter two-year battle over custody and finances with her estranged husband.
It was the type of case — considered among the most litigated divorces in the state — that judicial officials are now hoping to mitigate with new strategies for making complex or “high conflict” cases less adversarial by adopting principles from the Family Justice Initiative, a program of the National Center for State Courts.

“The whole idea is to change the way we handle family court cases,” said Michael A. Albis, chief administrative judge for family matters. “We’re trying to make them less adversarial because that doesn’t always have good outcomes.”
Albis declined to speak about the Dulos case, which has drawn international headlines since the New Canaan mother vanished last May and is now presumed dead.
died from an apparent suicide in January as he faced murder and other charges in connection with her death and disappearance.

In the 23 months before Jennifer Dulos disappeared on May 24, more than 400 court filings had been made in their divorce. Jennifer and Fotis Dulos each regularly accused the other of violating a judge’s orders within days of stipulations on how custody matters should be handled. The long divorce officially came to an end this month.
Most divorces in Connecticut are uncontested, meaning the parities essentially agree to the terms in a short period of time, or may need some help coming to a resolution, Albis said. About 93 percent of the 11,254 open divorce cases in Connecticut from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019 were concluded in less than one year, most with 25 court filings or less. Only three, including the Dulos divorce, had 200 or more filings during the same period. About 1,000 divorces were still open after one year as of July 1, according to figures provided by Albis.
The overhaul that Judicial Branch officials are trying to establish started before Albis was appointed chief administrator for family matters in September 2018, he said. The shift is taking time while court officials determine how to implement the program in courthouses throughout the state.
The Family Court in Norwich has acted as a pilot program with good results, he said. Representatives from the National Center for State Courts recently came to Connecticut to offer support and details on how the plan could be implemented.
The center, an independent, nonprofit court improvement organization founded at the urging of Supreme Court Justice Warren Burger, is promoting the Family Justice Initiative as a way to put families on pathways to resolve their issues in less time with less damage to relationships by using research-proven strategies, said Alicia Davis, principal court manager of the center’s Court Consulting Services.
“This is the area that the public is most likely to come into contact with a court case,” Davis said. “Fifty to 70 percent of marriages end in divorce.”
The program centers on triage by scheduling face-to-face meetings with participants early in the case. In Connecticut, there is a mandatory 90-day waiting period for divorce, but the new program will make sure there is interaction with the court long before the first court appearance, Albis said.
For uncontested divorces, the mandatory waiting period can be waived and the process streamlined so court staff can focus on the remaining 10 to 20 percent of cases that require more time and attention. Those cases often involve situational issues related to the emotional upheaval caused by the divorce, mental health or substance abuse issues or domestic violence, Davis said.
The initiative will require the family court to develop partnerships with service providers for families identified as needing assistance early in the process, she said.
The small percentage of “high conflict” or “complex” divorces will each be assigned one judge and a family relations counselor who will oversee the process and recommend court supports such as family counseling or services, Albis said.

“One of the goals is to help people reach amicable, voluntary conclusions,” Albis said. “If that can’t happen, the second goal is to have fewer court dates, leaving less of an imprint on people’s lives.”
Families whose cases may be more complex will start services sooner, “especially if they have a child, we don’t want this to fester,” Albis said.
The program isn’t just for families where domestic violence may be involved, “but it’s a plan that is sensitive to that issue,” he said.
Someone who is intent on filing numerous motions so the other person has to come to court every week will no longer be able to do that, Albis said. Trial dates will be given immediately so the cases can be completed in one year, he said.
“We want the parties to focus on the final resolution to their problem, as opposed to fighting an indefinite, lengthy battle,” Albis said....
Albis said they plan to communicate with the Connecticut Bar Association and the public to inform them about the changes, which are expected to be rolled out by early 2021, Albis said.
Davis said most people have a misconception of the court process based on what they see on TV.
“People say I want a lawyer who will fight for me, but that’s the last thing you want in family case,” she said. “Studies have shown time and time again, when you are trying to figure out the best interest of a child, you have to sit down and come to an agreement.”
Dulos divorce highlights need for change in CT family courts

The Courant has obtained monthd of court monitors report from the Dulos case including May 22 when Fotis Dulos visited his wife’s New Canaan home. Two days later she was gone:

Two days before Fotis Dulos allegedly killed his estranged wife, Jennifer Farber Dulos, he was in the driveway of her home handing her a piece of a chocolate bunny.
The encounter is an odd juxtaposition to what authorities accused Dulos of doing barely 40 hours later — lying in wait for Jennifer to return from dropping their five children off at school and violently killing her in the garage at the other end of that same driveway.
But that moment on May 22 — like so many others — was closely monitored and dutifully chronicled as part of the custody arrangement that lay at the heart of the dispute between the couple. The court monitor cataloged every movement by Dulos, every interaction with each child and submitted a report to the court after each visit over the previous two years.
And while Fotis Dulos’ death has shifted focus away from the criminal case, the lengthy and expensive divorce case has raised an array of questions about the family court system in Connecticut.
The visit to her home two days earlier, along with his other interactions with the children dating from January 2018, was documented in court monitor reports obtained by the Courant. While that gathering has been referred to in court, the details of it are being revealed here for the first time, including a potential defense answer to a key element of the prosecution’s case, how Dulos’ DNA was found inside a house he claimed never to have been in.

The reports reveal a couple constantly fighting over small things, including whether Dulos could get out of the car and hug his children when he picked them up. They also provide a window into the difficulties of supervised visits and the tension that builds as the visits tick swiftly by — the children always aware their three-hour window is closing.
Most of the visits were to parks in the New Canaan area, where Dulos would bring bikes for the kids to ride or a soccer ball for an impromptu game. They then either would set up a picnic or go into town for dinner and ice cream before their mother picked them up.
Dulos was habitually late for the mid-week visits, often complaining about traffic. When one of the children told him their mother had remarked about his tardiness, he responded: “She doesn’t have to drive an hour and a half” to get here. He also tried several times to change plans at the last minute, a source of irritation for Jennifer Farber Dulos because she seemed “like the bad guy” if she said no.

On May 22, though, Dulos actually arrived an hour early, getting to Welles Lane at 3:30 p.m. only to be told by his estranged wife to leave and come back in an hour when the court monitor would be there.
Returning at 4:30, he parked at the bottom of the driveway and pulled out chocolate bunnies for each of his five children. As he handed them out, Jennifer Farber Dulos, who was standing nearby, said that she “ate chocolate every day” to which Dulos replied “maybe one of the children would want to sacrifice their bunny for you.”
He then gave her a piece of one of the bunnies to eat.
Dulos’ children immediately noticed his haircut, he had shaved his hair off. The monitor wrote that all of the children rubbed his head in the driveway. Dulos had bought a cake for dessert and he asked if Jennifer could put it in the refrigerator. The monitor observed that Jennifer took the cake from Dulos to bring into the house. Both were instances the defense could have pointed to as moments where his DNA could have been transferred.
The visit was different from the others — it was the first time Dulos was allowed past the beginning of the long driveway of her Welles Lane home and into the backyard area.
First, Dulos played basketball with his children on a new hoop that had just been installed that morning. While playing, two of the children started fighting and both Jennifer and Dulos intervened. Dulos then told his wife he was impressed with the new basketball hoop
It was there when you parked, you just missed it,” Jennifer said.

“It is a very nice hoop and I like how it has the protection,” Dulos replied.
The hoop had in fact been installed that day by a Stratford man who was one of the last people, outside of her family, to talk with Farber Dulos.
“She was so excited to get the kids their own basketball hoop. She seemed like a very nice person,” Earl Capuano said in a recent interview with the Courant. Farber Dulos had purchased the hoop from the Darien Sport Shop, where Capuano worked.
“I talked to her a few times to set up an appointment to come to the house and where it would be best to put it,” Capuano said. “She mentioned that she was divorced but I got the impression it had just happened recently.”

The Courant has obtained monthd of court monitors report from the Dulos case including May 22 when Fotis Dulos visited his wife’s New Canaan home. Two days later she was gone:

At around 5 p.m., Dulos and the children left to go to nearby Grace Farms. The privately run park was a favorite spot for Dulos. The farm has an underground basketball court that he often rented for the children when their visits took place in New Canaan. Over the 18-month period from the divorce filing, several of the visits were at a state park in Shelton and on a few occasions Dulos rented a place called the ZEN House in Stamford.

When Grace Farms closed, the group returned to Jennifer’s house on Welles Lane. They sat at a table outside, and ate the salads and bread that Dulos had brought with him from Avon, playing a game of “Would You Rather” as they ate, according to the monitor’s report. After the kids ate some of the chocolate cake Dulos and some of the children cleaned the table and “put away the food and cake.”

In her notes, the monitor doesn’t specify what “putting away” means, though the prosecution — in building a case against Dulos — said the DNA from Dulos was evidence he was there the day of the attack. The monitor for the May 22 visit wasn’t Dennis Puebla, who had supervised the majority of visits over the previous 18 months, but a substitute, Sidnee Streater, who would later become a key witness for state police.

Stamford State’s Attorney Richard Colangelo, recently named chief state’s attorney, has said in court that Dulos did not go into the house on May 22 based on witness statements, including Streater’s and the children’s nanny, Lauren Almeida, who was present for parts of the May 22 visit.

It was a key point for the state because Colangelo said Dulos’ DNA was found mixed with his estranged wife’s on the kitchen faucet. His DNA also was found on the inside door knob of the mudroom door which leads into the garage area.

As Dulos and the children were finishing dinner in the backyard it is unclear how long Farber Dulos was at the house. At some point, the couple’s youngest child, who had not been present for most of the visit, returned and had cake with her siblings. Streater noted at 7:07 p.m. that Jennifer “came outside and prepared” one of the boys to leave for lacrosse practice. After she left, Dulos and the other children started playing basketball again.

The game lasted until 7:37 p.m. when Jennifer told the children it was time for them to come inside and take showers and finish their homework.

After hugging their father, the children went inside.

This is exactly what I expected to see. My friends mother who was stabbed to death by her estranged ex had let her guard down because days earlier he’d reached out with kindness and set up a time to meet at the house so they could go through their stuff together. That’s the day he murdered her and thar monster was plotting her death the whole time just like FD was plotting Jennifer’s death the whole time he set up this fake “oops”. It’s sickening to see the details, but sadly not surprising,

Just wondering how the HC obtained this...through the FOIA or maybe handed to them? My guess is the latter.


MOO

This is really good, thanks. Did the Defence explain away the blood in the house?

Exactly...and that is another thing that can be corroborated, but I felt the way it was written was to minimize his shaved head to the murder.

Once NP gets to defend his deceased defendant -“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury - that’s not blood, it’s obviously chocolate (from the bunny).” According to MT, coffee also looks a lot like blood as well.

Thoughts from the commute this morning:

FD left JFD's Suburban in reverse with the parking lights on. Was this on purpose to emulate an abduction?

FD dumped loads of evidence on Albany Avenue is Hartford, a low-income, high crime neighborhood. Was this also on purpose to mislead investigators as to the type of suspect they'd be looking for?

If both of these things were on purpose, what sort of body disposal method/site would fit with these two scenarios? What would fit with these scenarios and also fit with our known timeline?

If FD took these purposeful actions to make the crime look like something it wasn't, would it follow that he would take actions in the disposal to make the crime appear the same way in case JFD's body was found?

MOO
It is an interesting detail. We always assumed it was to minimize the risk of leaving DNA behind, but it never occurred to me it would be early enough for his kids to have seen it beforehand. One more layer of premeditation in my opinion - it wasn't a last minute action, I shaved my head days before, even the kids saw it!

Sometimes I think we get caught up in thinking about each little detail as if it was significant. There are so many details in this case. I try the KISS method(keep it simple stupid). It's hard to imagine every little detail is important in solving what happened to Jennifer, and how it went down. Absolutely FD shaving his head is a VERY important detail. However, just MOO.

That article was like a train wreck. I couldn't stop reading it even when I know I should have turned away. Now I m left feeling like I want to vomit.

The last line says it all: the source is Dulos' grieving family. Grieve! I get that. The PR is hurting the living, especially Dulos' children. Grieve and let them grieve.

I believe nothing of that write up until I see the source material myself.

And they noticed it right after Dulos said, kids, look at meeee, this is about meeee. How do you like my new low-dna-sample look? Touch my head! Give me attention!​

Just an FYI - I’m fairly new to following this sad story, so many facts that have been well known by this group (WS) for a long time, comes as new information to me.

Replying to myself here, but I want to give these questions thought today. Can someone confirm this is the podcast with the breakdown of locations from the AW, including possibilities for the 40-minute gap in NC for me?

Idk if it was ever really discussed in MSM, but we noticed here early on that FD's hair was cropped very short when he was arrested. His SM photos all had longer hair. It was theorized this was to limit the possibility of hair evidence being left behind by him.
