He was, or is, Norm Pattis’s law partner. It was my opinion that Kevin Smith disliked fD, probably because Dulos only wanted to be dealing with Norm Pattis. I think KS dropped the ball with fD on the day he gassed himself, when NP was in Washington-and I don’t necessarily think either of them were too sorry about it, since fD was out of money, and appeared to be headed straight for the Big House.About - Kevin Smith - Attorney At Law
Since 2007, Kevin Smith has been a dedicated legal advocate with a distinct focus on Criminal Defense and Civil Rights cases. Throughout his career, Kevin has
He looked pretty upset after FD killed himself.Maybe because he dropped the ball, as you say?
It was his fault, in a way-he should have picked fD up and taken him to Stamford, but he probably didn’t want to spend that much time as a captive audience of Fotis’s, listening to him
about having to rely on the junior partner, with the possibility of being locked up that day, and never getting out. I can just hear the conversation in my head. I do sometimes wonder if KS offered to drive him, but fD turned him down.
Smith seems to have his own firm now in New Haven. I posted link above. I believe they both were sued by GF and are both barred from speaking about case for 40 years. Wonder if the split with Pattis was amicable or not....
Yes, I agree with that as Smith was supposed to drive FD to court appearances. But, I also recall there being some issue with State Police also providing escort and they didn't seem to be there on the suicide day either. FD was alone and frankly I'm not sure how that happened? Did FD tell Smith he could drive on his own to Court? We know from news reports that FD sent Anna Curry away for an errand (believe it was groceries iirc).
So.... did he take time to scoop up the Mercier into the Suburban before hitting Waveny or did he trackback in the Tacoma?
Its interesting that the search warrant for the JF Suburban states that a LE call to OnStar confirmed activity on the murder date but that additional paperwork would have to be submitted to get the full activity for the date. Will post back in the event its in the documents I'm looking at now but my suspicion is that it would have been withheld by the State pending completion of the investigation but this is pure speculation on my part.
May be mistaken, but wasn’t AC planning to drive him there, then FD sent her to the bank & said he’d drive himself? I’ll check. ETA: Here’s what I found: Police Release Report on Investigation Into Death of Fotis Dulos
Norm was onto Bigger and Better things. Alex Jones deep pockets. Fotis served his purpose.
I wish the entire report was available as I'm not seeing the account published by NBC-CT making much sense. AC said that she knew that FD had harmed himself but she didn't call 911 or check the garage after being told by KS that FD was at 4JX but she then calls KS and asks him to call 911 and she says he refused. KS later refutes this statement and says at the time he was in the office of Atty Colangelo and that PD and Probation were on their way to 4JX. AC then asks KS again if she should call 911 and was told that PD and Probation were on their way and so it appears she never called 911.
Big. Really big. JMO.
Aren't those separate events? One regarding JFd's ping and the other, FD's?
