Read the Court Documents in Missing New Canaan Mom Case

A mom of five from New Canaan has been missing since May 24 and the investigation and search for her have been going on for more than two weeks. 

The last report of anyone seeing 50-year-old Jennifer Dulos was when she dropped her children off at school that morning. Court documents say Jennifer was reported missing at 7 p.m. that night.

She had missed several doctor appointments that day in New York City and her friends could not reach her, according to court records.

When police went to search Jennifer Dulos' New Canaan home, they found blood in the garage as well as on a vehicle and evidence of attempts to "clean the crime scene,"according to court documents.

The documents go on to say that led police to the suspicion that Jennifer Dulos might be the victim of a serious physical assault. 

As the search continues for Jennifer, police have arrested her estranged husband, 51-year-old Fotis Dulos, and his 44-year-old girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, in connection with the case. They have been charged with evidence tampering and hindering prosecution. Troconis was released on bond.

Both appeared in court on Tuesday and have entered pleas of not guilty.

The estranged husband of Jennifer Dulos, a missing New Canaan woman, and his girlfriend appeared in court Monday after being charged with tampering with or fabricating physical evidence and hindering prosecution in the first degree in connection to the missing person case and bond was set at $500,000 for both of them. Fotis Dulos, 51, and his 44-year-old girlfriend, Michelle C. Troconis, were arrested over the weekend. If they post bond, they will be subject to GPS monitoring and will be required to turn in their passports.

Prosecutors told a judge that they expect to file additional charges.

With Jennifer missing for several days, her mother, Gloria Faber, filed for custody of her grandchildren. The children have been staying with their grandmother in New York since their mother disappeared.

The judge has not issued a decision.
