Search Continues At Former Fotis Dulos Property: UPDATE

FARMINGTON, CT — A Connecticut State Police search in connection with Jennifer Farber Dulos' disappearance continued Tuesday afternoon at one of the Farmington properties formerly owned by the late Fotis Dulos.

State police detectives were at 80 Mountain Spring Road in Farmington throughout the day, but what they were looking for was not disclosed.

WTNH-TV reported that authorities were seen digging holes in the backyard of the property at one point.

"State Police Western District Major Crime detectives are responding to Mountain Spring Road in Farmington for investigative purposes, following up on old leads," a state police spokesperson told Patch in a statement late Tuesday morning. "No new information is available at this time."

Tuesday afternoon, state police referred questions to Alaine Griffin, spokesperson at the Chief State's Attorney's office, but she could not be reached immediately for comment.

Authorities have searched the Mountain Spring Road property, and other properties associated with Fotis Dulos, in the past looking for Jennifer Dulos' remains and other evidence in the case.

Tuesday's search included K-9s, according to Fox 61.

Jennifer Dulos vanished from her New Canaan home on May 24, 2019, and is presumed to be dead. Her body has not been found.

The late Fotis Dulos, a luxury home builder and Jennifer Dulos' estranged husband, was accused of kidnapping and murdering her. But he took his own life in January 2020, before he could stand trial.

The Mountain Spring Road home, which realtor.com says is under contingent to be sold, is one of several homes Fotis Dulos developed that were foreclosed upon before or after his death to pay off debts.

In addition to Fotis Dulos, two other people have been charged in connection with case, Fotis' former girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, and a former friend and attorney, Kent Mawhinney.

Both have been charged with conspiracy to commit murder and are accused of assisting Fotis Dulos in the murder plot.

Troconis is scheduled to appear in court on Feb. 2, while Mawhinney's next court appearance is scheduled for April 5.
