The criminal contempt of court charge, which is a misdemeanor, was filed after a friend of Jennifer Dulos alerted prosecutors during the trial that a sealed custody report was on Troconis’ laptop and visible to the public. Nobody was supposed to be able to access the report.
Troconis is being held at York Correctional Institution in Niantic, the state’s only institution for female offenders.
Court officials said the hearing for the contempt charge has been continued to July 10.
