Missing New Canaan Mom: Estranged Husband Questioned, Report Says

NEW CANAAN, CT — Fotis Dulos, the estranged husband of missing New Canaan mom Jennifer Dulos, reportedly was questioned by authorities Friday in connection with his wife's disappearance, writes the Daily Mail. See video below.

Additionally, the couple's Farmington home, which Jennifer Dulos moved out of in 2017 but where Fotis Dulos, 51, still resides, was searched by authorities Saturday morning, reports the Hartford Courant.

In a statement on Saturday, New Canaan Police said no arrest has been made in the case. Police said they would not comment on who has been questioned in the case. While police confirmed that search warrants have been secured, the department said it would not comment on details related to the location of the search warrants or what items are listed in the warrants.

Police said the search has expanded beyond New Canaan.

Jennifer Dulos, a 50-year-old mother of five, has been missing for just over a week. The search for her, and for possible clues to her disappearance, has taken authorities from Waveny Park in New Canaan where her vehicle was found on May 24, to her New Canaan home on Welles Lane, to a property in Pound Ridge, NY that her family owns.

In addition to the Farmington home, authorities also searched storm drains and other locations on streets in downtown Hartford on Friday, reports WFSB-TV.

Jennifer Dulos and Fotis Dulos were in the midst of a contentious divorce and custody battle over their five children at the time of her disappearance. Those court proceedings have dragged on for two years, according to judicial records.

In addition, Jennifer Dulos' mother, Gloria Farber, and the estate of her late father, Hilliard Farber, were suing Fotis Dulos for more than $2 million for not paying back loans he received from the Farbers for Fotis Dulos' luxury home-building business, an amended lawsuit states.

No arrest has been made in connection with Jennifer Dulos's disappearance, and New Canaan police officials are not commenting on the case besides occasional updates.

A prayer vigil was held for Jennifer Dulos at St. Aloysius Parish in New Canaan on Thursday night, and an interfaith prayer vigil also is scheduled for Sunday, June 2, at St. Mark's Episcopal ChurchChurch also in New Canaan. See the Facebook post below.

Through spokesperson Carrie Luft, Jennifer Dulos' family and friends released a statement Friday thanking the community and law enforcement for their support, and offering hope for her safe return:

As of today, it has been a week since Jennifer Farber Dulos was reported missing. We miss her beyond measure – her five young children, her family, her friends, colleagues, and neighbors, as well as countless people who have never met her but who have responded to the spirit of grace and kindness that Jennifer embodies.

The public response has been astounding. The support and love, the concern for her children, and the community efforts to help locate Jennifer have kept us going. Please be assured that Jennifer's five children are safe and well-cared for.
