"The other woman" in the Jennifer Dulos case tells detectives, "I didn't do it"
CBSN
Michelle Troconis has been dubbed "the other woman" in a headline-making story about a Connecticut mother of five, Jennifer Dulos, who vanished and is believed to have been killed by her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos. He was charged with murder but died by suicide weeks after his arrest — leaving Troconis the focus of the investigation, as she faces multiple charges in connection with Jennifer Dulos' presumed murder. CARRIE LUFT [reading from Jennifer's blog]: "I loved the bedtime routines, the rituals, the saying good nights, the books read, the hugs and kisses given, the songs sung." CARRIE LUFT [reading from Jennifer's blog]: "The best part of my night now, hands down, is when I give our baby… a bath and then her bottle, in my arms." CARRIE LUFT [to reporter]: All I want to say is, Jennifer, we love you and we are doing everything we can to bring you home. Your kids miss you. We all miss you. "I am afraid that my Husband will harm our children to punish me." DET KIMBALL: We think you have information. DETECTIVE: So, if you know stuff that you're not telling us ... NORM PATTIS [to reporters]: Here's our message to the State of Connecticut: Mr. Dulos is not guilty. We are ready for the court. There's the courthouse. If you want to try the case, bring it on. NORM PATTIS [in court]: There is no body that we're aware of and I'm sick and tired of hearing about it. NORM PATTIS [to reporters]: We take the position there is insufficient evidence to conclude that she's even dead. WCBS NEWS REPORT: He is in critical condition after a suicide attempt at his home. NORM PATTIS [to reporters]: Fotis Dulos was declared dead tonight at 5:32. MICHELLE TROCONIS [ interrogation]: I'm not protecting him. I'm not protecting him.
"This has shattered our life because my sister is not the person that they're saying," says Michelle Troconis' sister Claudia Troconis. "And she never would be capable of anything they've said that she has done." CARRIE LUFT [reading from Jennifer's blog]: "I just wanted to freeze the moment. Snap a picture. Take them all in…. They grow too fast." "He is dangerous and ruthless when he believes that he has been wronged." MICHELLE TROCONIS: I don't have John, but I can walk the whole world with you if you want. … I can do whatever you want, but I didn't do it. … I have no idea what happened to Jennifer. I have no idea where Jennifer is. MICHELLE TROCONIS: No, I don't know ...
Michelle Troconis, Fotis Dulos' girlfriend, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, evidence tampering and hindering prosecution – all charges she denies. And in some exclusive excerpts from interrogation videos, she insists she has no information about Jennifer Dulos' disappearance. "… He must always win at all costs." DETECTIVE: That's the man you're protecting, 'cause that's the sick s---.
A blistering heat wave that recently brought record-breaking temperatures to large sections of the southwestern United States, including several major cities, is forecast to continue this week as it tracks over much of the country on its way toward the East Coast. Meanwhile, meteorologists have warned that powerful storm weather could dump as much as a foot of rain, or more, on parts of Florida and potentially give rise to another round of tornado threats in central states. Metropolitan areas like Chicago may be affected by a possible twister.
After four days of voting, with more than 400 million people eligible across 27 countries, European voters have pulled the bloc's 720-seat parliament farther to the right than it has ever been. The European Parliament, for the next five years, will now have a record number of far-right legislators. Far-right parties made gains in Europe's top three economies — Germany, France and Italy — with gains by politicians who campaigned against immigration, against support for Ukraine and against climate policy.
