Missing Connecticut Mom Jennifer Dulos Update: Estranged Husband Fotis Dulos Arrested And Charged With Murder

Fotis Dulos was taken into custody Tuesday by Connecticut police for the alleged murder of his estranged wife, Jennifer Dulos, who remains missing.

Fotis Dulos, 52, was formally charged with Jennifer Dulos’ murder after his arrest at his home in Farmington, Connecticut. He was reportedly speaking with his lawyer when unmarked state police cruisers surrounded his home.

Dulos’ lawyer, Norm Pattis, told reporters that bail is expected to be set around $6 million.

“I haven’t seen the warrant yet but it is my understanding that Mr. Dulos was just arrested and was charged with the crime of murder as to his wife, Jennifer Dulos,” Pattis said. “It is my understanding ... that arrests are simultaneously taking place and that two other individuals are being arrested.”

Pattis said that one person faces a charge of murder and the other faces a conspiracy to commit murder charge.

Fotis Dulos and his girlfriend Michelle Troconis, 45, were arrested in June on suspicion of evidence tampering. Authorities said that the day after Jennifer Dulos went missing, someone matching Fotis Dulos' description was seen on camera getting out of his truck and putting "multiple garbage bags into various trash receptacles." It was later discovered that trash receptacles had clothing and household goods that contained Jennifer Dulos' blood.

Investigators have yet to locate 50-year-old Jennifer Dulos, who was last seen dropping off her children at school in New Canaan, Connecticut, on May 24. The only evidence investigators found was a bloody shirt belonging to her in a trashcan in Hartford that police suspect she was wearing at the time of her disappearance.

Jennifer Dulos’ friend and spokesperson for her family, Carrie Luft, addressed the arrest in a statement Tuesday.

“Above all we thank the Connecticut State Police and the New Canaan Police Department, as well as the assisting local departments, for their tireless commitment and diligent, painstaking work that have led to these arrests,” Luft said. “Although we are relieved that the wait for these charges is over, for us there is no sense of closure. Nothing can bring Jennifer back. We miss her every day and will forever mourn her loss. We believe the arrest warrants will speak for themselves, and we ask that you please respect our privacy during this time. Thank you.”
