Troconis Family Speaks About Jennifer Dulos Case On '48 Hours'

NEW CANAAN, CT — During an interview in an upcoming episode of the CBS true crime show "48 Hours," members of Michelle Troconis' family defend her against the charges she faces in connection with the disappearance of Jennifer Farber Dulos.

In the episode, Troconis' sisters, Claudia and Daniela, and her father, Dr. Carlos Troconis, speak to CBS correspondent Erin Moriarty in which they proclaim her innocence.

"This has shattered our life because my sister is not the person that they're saying," says Michelle Claudia Troconis says during the interview. "And she never would be capable of anything they've said that she has done."

Michelle Troconis is facing a charge of conspiracy to commit murder and related offenses in the Dulos case, accused of assisting former boyfriend, the late Fotis Dulos, in a plot to murder his estranged wife, Jennifer Dulos. In addition to Troconis, former friend of Fotis', Kent Mawhinney, also is facing the same conspiracy charge.

Both Troconis and Mawhinney have pleaded not guilty.

Jennifer Dulos vanished from her New Canaan home on May 24, 2019, and is presumed to be dead. Her body has not been found, though members of law enforcement, some of whom also are interviewed in the "48 Hours" episode, have not stopped looking for her.

Fotis Dulos was charged with kidnapping and murder, but he took his own life in January 2020 before he could stand trial.

In addition to the Troconis family, Moriarty also interviews Fotis Dulos' sister, Rena Dulos Kyrimi, and Carrie Luft, friend of Jennifer's and spokesperson for the Farber family.

48 HOURS: "What Does The Other Woman Know? The Disappearance of Jennifer Dulos" is scheduled to air on CBS stations at 10 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 13. Click here to view a preview.
