Who Is Jennifer Dulos?
Jennifer Dulos was born on September 27, 1968 in New York City to Gloria Ortenberg and Hilliard Farber, a banker and philanthropist respectively. She has an older sister, Melissa Irene Farber. After graduating from Brown University in 1990, Jennifer went on to the New York University Tisch School of the Arts to get a master’s degree in writing. Jennifer was a stay-at-home mum who wrote for Patch.com and maintained her own blog.
Jennifer Dulos’ Husband
Fotis Dulos was born on 6th August, 1967 in Turkey, raised in Athens, Greece, and immigrated to the United States in 1986. After graduating from Brown University in 1989, he went on to Columbia Business School to acquire an MBA in finance. In June 2000, Fotis married Hilary Vanessa Aldama in Athens, another alumnus of Brown. On July 12, 2004, after four years of marriage, they got divorced. In that same year, Dulos established Fore Group Inc., a Connecticut-based real estate development firm with a focus on opulent residences.
When Dulos was still married to his first wife, he began contacting Farber, whom he had also met at Brown. On August 28, 2004, hardly more than a month after Dulos’s divorce, they were married in Manhattan. They later relocated to Farmington, Connecticut. Together, they were blessed with five children, two pairs of twins, and three males, Petros, Theodore, and Constantine, and two daughters, Christiane and Cleopatra Noelle, who were all named after Greek Orthodox saints.
Jennifer hinted about marital problems in a blog post dated March 12, 2012, writing, “I wish I were a strong person and that confrontation did not both scare and appal me.”Jennifer filed for divorce at the Superior Court in Stamford on June 20, 2017, following the marriage’s slow collapse during which she claimed Fotis was becoming more independent. She moved her five children to New Canaan, which is approximately seventy miles southwest of Farmington, and began renting a house in the same month.
Jennifer said, “I know that filing for divorce and filing this motion will enrage him,” in her divorce paperwork. I’m sure he’ll try to hurt me in some manner as payback.” She added that she thought he was having an affair with Michelle Troconis, a Venezuelan colleague. In addition, Jennifer claimed that Fotis had purchased a gun that year and had threatened to kidnap their children if she did not accept his demands in the divorce settlement. Fotis refuted these allegations and said he had lawfully purchased the rifle for home security. Both parents claimed that the other was denigrating them in multiple motions filed.
Even though Jennifer asked for an emergency custody order, the couple was granted interim shared custody of their kids until their divorce was finalised. In early 2018, Jennifer filed an emergency order of custody once more, and the judge discovered that Fotis had disregarded multiple court orders. While both parents were to have joint legal custody of the children, Jennifer was granted sole physical custody in March 2018. Fotis was allowed to have monitored phone conversations and supervised visits.
Jennifer Dulos’ Disappearance
She was last spotted when Dulos was leaving her kids off at school on May 29, 2019. She was supposed to see a doctor later that day in New York City, but she failed to show up. Her friends had reported her missing, and when the police arrived, they discovered more evidence and blood in her home’s garage. Subsequently, her ex-husband was accused of killing her.
Early in 2020, Dulos’s ex-husband, Fotis Dulos, was charged with her murder but was quickly freed on a $6 million bond. Michelle Troconis, Dulos’s girlfriend, was accused of plotting to commit murder. She was also freed, but she had to go to the hospital to get medical attention.
According to ABC News, authorities allege that “Jennifer Dulos was killed at her home on May 24, 2019 between 8:05 a.m . and 10:25 a.m.” They believe she was bound with zip ties and put inside her own car. Dateline NBC aired the episode “Disappearance of Jennifer Dulos” on 9 September 2019. A followup episode entitled “The Day Jennifer Disappeared” aired on 2 September 2022. She was declared dead earlier this year.
