New Lead Emerges In Search For Missing New Canaan Mom

NEW CANAAN, CT — The investigation into Jennifer Farber Dulos' disappearance has reached three weeks, and authorities were back at two previously searched locations on Friday as a possible new lead has emerged.

"Today, June 14, 2019, the Connecticut State Police continue to search the Materials Innovation and Recycling Authority (MIRA) in Hartford for evidence related to the disappearance of Jennifer, and the Connecticut State Police Dive Team continues to search a body of water located on Old Farms Road in Avon, Connecticut," stated New Canaan Police Chief Leon Krolikowski.

Jennifer Dulos, a 50-year-old New Canaan mom of five, has been missing since May 24, and in addition to the pond and garbage facility, authorities have searched multiple properties in New Canaan, Farmington, Avon and Pound Ridge, NY.

A new potential lead has emerged, writes WTNH-TV, in the form of a red construction truck owned by a contractor who has worked for Fotis Dulos, Jennifer Dulos' estranged husband.

Fotis Dulos is a luxury home builder who was in the midst of a contentious divorce and child custody battle with Jennifer Dulos at the time of her disappearance. He and his girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, have been charged with evidence tampering in connection with Jennifer Dulos' disappearance.

According to WTNH, Fotis Dulos would have had access to this red truck during the timeframe when Jennifer Dulos went missing.

This truck is owned by the same contractor who was driving Fotis Dulos' black Ford F-150 Raptor in New Canaan on the day that Jennifer Dulos disappeared. That Ford pickup truck is what police said Fotis Dulos was driving when he and Troconis were spotted dumping bags and items in Hartford. Some of those items were recovered, and tests showed that they were stained with Jennifer Dulos' blood, according to arrest warrants.
