Horrible! A man you have 5 children with murder you like this! He committed suicide because of his guilt! His girlfriend knew, she need to tell where the body is! At least help the family bury her body for her children’s!
I think he killed himself because he didn’t want to go to prison. Also I don’t think her body will ever be found. He most likely cut her up into pieces
Very sad situation with the kids and no parents.
I think he killed himself because he's a narcissist, and he knew they'd find out he did it and that he would go to jail; he would "lose". He didn't feel at all guilty- he killed himself to have the last word and not have any consequences he couldn't control.
you have no idea whatsoever if his GF knew with all due respect.
@@pse888it's looking more and more obvious that she was in out i get why shes arrested for it
I am generally not a mainstream media fan; however, I have been following this case on several channels, and this channel is doing a superb job. Great (PROFESSIONAL and INFORMATIVE) journalism...thank you.
👍 agree
I can not stop imagining the 5 kids watching this whole thing play out.. 😢 They are all teens and I’m sure watching on social media. Both parents gone and the mistress on trial. This has to be completely overwhelming for these poor kids.
I don’t know HOW she could not have known….
the state cant prove anything... their case is sad at best
He was such a coward. He had the nerve to leave a note saying it wasn’t him. He made a quick job of getting rid of her. There’s no way he did all that alone. ( 2 ponchos? ) So heartbreaking to see her clothing cut up like that. They did say her injuries were not survivable. Guess when they found the box cuter and screwdriver they knew he killed her. The zip ties were probably used to keep her from moving. If they don’t have blood on them she was killed elsewhere. What a piece of 💩 hope he’s in hell.
There was blood on the zip ties
@@cindyeldajani1957not all of them.
...and...?@@user-mo4tq7ip8j
Poor Jennifer she must have been tortured!
@@irenetsomidis2167so heartbreaking for a mother who had the guts to leave and get away from her psychotic husband only to be butchered in the worse possible way, what a disgusting waste of a beautiful life. So glad that POS is no longer breathing, no punishment would ever have been appropriate for his actions.
Jennifer's lifeless body IS MISSING but... it is completely clear that Jennifer is NO LONGER LIVING!
The lives of five beautiful innocent children were destroyed by this woman. So very tragic!
To do that to your good friend….the lowest of low. She should be ASHAMED!😡
I cannot begin to explain how I felt when the blood soaked items started to be shown. It created the eeriest feeling all over my being. My stomach is in knots to think of what this woman went thru. Barbaric and sadistic vicious attack of a mother a woman that just wanted to raise her 5 children.
5 kids are now without their mother. 5 kids are without their father. Another thought was how Jennifer’s family and friends are feeling. How badly this must hurt. To think of the brutality. I cannot help but wonder why this ever happened?!? Separated living her life with children to nothing. To not have a proper burial for her loved ones to go to. That must be just awful so sad. Not one person should ever have to face any of this. And the evidence is overwhelming and powerful. I send my condolences and prayers to the family for their loss
Michelle has aged pretty harshly in the last few years. Rightfully so for what she ‘allegedly’ participated in.
She was most likely dismembered or why would clothes be cut and removed, zip ties used and removed. What a sad case. I feel so bad for her family and friends.
This evidence is very strong. The defendant may not have killed her,but she must've known that he killed her and what was in the garbage bags when they were dumping them all over the city. She should do the right thing now and own up to where the body is, and for it to be recovered for the sake of the family.
Remember, there were 2 x blood covered Ponchos
Whether Troconis physically killed Jennifer or not, she is every bit as guilty as if she had bc there’s no excuse for her not telling someone to stop it. She knew and she was complacent to taking this beautiful mother from 5 little children!!! Lock her up for good.
Yes, lock her up!
Huh? You don't know she did anything? All we know is she rode in a truck well Fotis through out evidence (for all she knew it was just garbage!)
Well said!
Lock her up and throw away the key
She reminds me of Katherine Magbanua, convicted of murder, away for life in Florida prison because she wouldn't talk about what she knew, she too "played" stupid and ignorant.
The videos showed a calm and confident Fotis casually dumping those bags into the trash receptacles. He must have thought he'd outsmarted the police but he clearly underestimated them. Typical narcissist. There is no way the mistress didn't realize what he was doing, driving around all over the city and dumping trash at different spots. She KNEW. I wonder what he did to her body. Based on the evidence it would seem like he dismembered her before dumping her body, but I am afraid we would never know.
Connecticut is doing a horrible job of proving her involvement... feelings arent good enough to put people in jail
Just like the Adelson's (Charlie) never suspected every call after 2014 was recorded.
@@konanoobiemaster Amen
In special a community with non white residents.
@@heather4089he’s not white. He’s Greek. What’s your point?
Where’s her body?? So so sad if any bf of mine asked me to ride around getting rid of killing his wife I’d be screaming to the police!! To me she’s guilty as heck!! Coward took his own life! POS ! Those poor kids😢 RIP Jennifer!
Aka accessory after the fact.
Michelle may not have done the murder - but you will NEVER convince me she didnt KNOW!!!! She needs to give this family some PEACE and tell what she knows!! Im sure they want her body found at the very least!
Is knowing a crime a crime?
Yes @@jaknap1
Excellent coverage !!!
How can Troconis didn't know anything about him murdering his wife when they found notes for alibi in their home , disgusting woman, I feel so bad for her family her kids , God bless them
Oh wow I didn't know that
Yea, you don’t need a timeline of every moment for the day, if you don’t know anything before or after the fact. And, let’s leave out the drive about town dumping bags in bins in a different town than you live. 🙄🙏🏻⚖️🪦☮️
How absolutely heartbreaking for those closest to Jennifer Dulos to witness this evidence. I can’t even imagine how painful it must be!! Fotis Dulos and Michelle Troconis had both already proven their lack of integrity and moral character before Jennifer even went missing. Did Michelle Troconis have any regard for her involvement in that marriage ending? Didn’t she go on a family vacation with Jennifer and Fotis and their children knowing she was already having an affair with Fotis??? That’s a special kinda twisted! But we should now believe she had no knowledge of what Fotis was doing when he disposed of Jennifer’s bloody cut clothes in multiple garbage receptacles??? SMDH!!!
How could this woman be so evil to another woman and a mom. 😢
TWISTED. INDEED.
OMG😭😨
Shannon is doing a great job on this series.
TWO Ponchos were found in the trash cans on Albany Ave in Hartford, CT. I Wonder if there was any DNA evidence found on either of the TWO Ponchos or the Gloves?
That much blood no way she is alive! 😢
😢
Even if they didn't have all that blood evidence, the fact that she hasn't been seen, contacted her children, used her phone or credit cards in YEARS is reason enough to know she is unfortunately deceased.
She is going DOWN!! Calling jurors “fascinated” is disgusting.
Poor Jennifer. She must’ve suffered so much fear and pain at the end. I can’t even imagine. Knowing that she would be leaving her five children and he would probably get them must’ve been horrifying for her. 💔
5 years without justice for a murder of a lovely innocent woman !! Insane and a tragedy beyond imagination. I feel so bad for the deceased victim and her family who was not involved in the murder. Anyone who knows anything needs to confess and or help bring the truth to light
With so many years passing by in some cases and murderers continuing with their lives...it almost feels that there's no justice no matter what...
Welll the killer killed himself so he saved taxpayers money from having to care for him for the rest of his life in prison.
Oh my Lord all that blood just broke my heart¡
Thank you so much for the excellent updates 👍👍👍👍!!
Horrendous 😢
It’s blood … why can’t they say it’s blood all over those things … why do they keep saying “ blood like substance “? Also, it’s all been tested for DNA, why isht the prosecutor saying - this is a bra - its been cut with a sharp object - it’s covered in blood -- it’s covered in Jennifer’s blood.
Forensic Identification Tests for blood can sometimes be more complicated than most people think …
Presumptive Blood Identification Screening Tests must meet specific legal standards .
It’s not unusual for these tests to mistake animal blood , plants , soil components (and several other materials ) as a POSITIVE for human blood .
Thus, it’s become common legal practice to reference any stain as “Blood-Like Substance”.
Take a chill pill 💊, dude 👍🏼
I believe the defence have put a big issue on who says its blood. I believe it will need to b whoever tested "the blood like substance" to declare that. Which I'm hoping will b soon.. that defence lawyer is really dragging sh1t out
They need an expert to say it’s blood,
@@lauramcilroy4261right.
Until the forensics team testify and confirm with lab result, prosecutors cannot identify it as blood.
The shirt, the bra, how they were cut, and the amount of Jennifer’s blood on it 💯 confirm to me she was violently murdered. Them throwing it away in bags along that street on video surveillance only means one thing to me - guilty. This woman at least was trying to help him get away with murder.
Good coverage. Concise
The most disturbing part of all of this evidence is WHY the clothing had to be cut off???? This is not to bury a body, but more along the line of a more disturbing end. I don't even want to type out the reason that the body would need to be naked for. Think pigs or wood chipper!!! 😡. otherwise there is no reason to strip a body of its clothing.
Remember the Crafts woodchipper murder in Connecticut (1986).
@@GayleLenihan yes.

When did they present that Jennifer was a missing persons case with all this evidence?
Good job to this news channel,Best one to see this whole trial
That must have been a very violent attack/ murder. WHY, The destruction of a family unit, for WHAT, NO winners here, but that female belongs in prison, she helped, just by association, & Knowledge of what that COWARD had done.
Beautiful JENNIFER❤❤❤
Michele needs to fess up. She knew everything, even helped. She was with him throwing stuff away. She’s guilty of accessory at the very least. What monsters. She looks like she thinks because she’s attractive she will get off. Don’t think so.
2 panchos she helped.
Well someone else..... I wonder about the red truck guy, Kent?
2 panchos? Exactly what I thought, she helped.
That what I think too, she helped in Jennifer’s ambush and murder
Do hope the prosecutors already have collected MT's DNA on those evidences.
How could any woman fool around with a married man especially with 5 children. No morals whatsoever. Her family must be so proud of her
Jennifer was with Fotis before he was divorced...so what makes her any different than Traconis???
So jennifer has no morals????she was going with a marry man at that time...cause Fotis was marry
@@Liliana-hh6ucdid he have 5 children with the previous wife? Learn to read, Duffus
I can’t believe this woman’s voice… unreal.
lol thank you i thought i was going crazy i guess im not alone . can’t believe they let her talk lol
The news reporters voice?
So annoying!
@@melaniel7121yes! Over the top!
She needs a stylist too. Every time I see her outfits it's so unflattering with those legs imo.
How is Troconis able to hire one of the most expensive attorneys?
Her family has money
he Isa sleepy ass..must be money her bf left her
Who wouldn't get suspicious if theyre riding around with their significant other and they keep stopping at multpile DIFFERENT places to throw trash away?!? If my husband stopped at more than one trash can id be complaining to him and asking why didn't he just throw all the trash away at once?? Anybody with common sense is going to question that.
That poor woman ! It’s just too sad . Rest in peace
I still don't believe he intended to commit su!(!d, IMO he wrote the letter stating he was innocent and HOPED that they would find him BEFORE he croked.
If there were 2 plastic poncho's. There must have been 2 perpetrators.
I think He doubled the ponchos because they were super thin, and cut the hood off the second one so it wouldnt be so bulky and would fit him tighter.
good work
I think he cut her body up and got rid of it
lol 😂 everyone braying “not enough on Troconis”. Have you considered that Mawhinney is coming in to tie it up?
Has he been offered a plea deal, or anything to testify against Troconis?
its they're only hope at this point... this prosecutor is weak 🤡
It's coming, DNA bombshell plus her lying not good
In these Mansions isn't there ever a maid, butler, nanny, chauffeur around who knows something???????
Nanny gave her testimony which almost nailed this chick.
Does anyone notice that MT is wearing the SAME Vineyard Vines striped shirt as was Jennifer’s blood-soaked striped shirt found in the dumped bag? Eery…
Also, eerie.
Wow! That is really nuts. You know who else did that? Ezra Mccandless. She killed the lover she was cheating on her bf with! She wore a sweater the bf gave her on the day he testified. Freaked him out. Satisfying when she was found guilty!
Either he was such a good liar and truly kept it to himself or she was incredibly gullible.
I think she absolutely knew what he was doing! They definitely could have planned this together.
After seeing what this guy Fotis profile all I can thinks is that he did it and somehow he tricked Troconis to clean without knowing what the hell really happened. Who knows what tricky story that guy told this lady, maybe and most probable she did not even had a clue that he had killed someone. It is probable she did not even know this guys was a manipulative psychopath, such a good actor capable not only of enchanting and fooling Troconis but her also fooling wife for many years. Maybe he was such a good liar that his wife figured it out many years after and that’s why she ended up separating. This guy was sick and got all this ladies into a mess, one killed and the other now in this mess
...but that is possible!
If she helped him clean up, where did she think all the blood came from in the garage?
I feel Dulos family in Greece May be threatening her if she speaks!
@@pedroherrera6078After the cleanup and learning of Jenifer missing if she did not know why not go to the police. She’s guilty.
Prosecution still has nothing on Troconis ? Possibly some DNA evidence later in the trial !
She's guilty as sin ! 😊
She was with him disposing the evidence. So at m least she a partner in crime.
Nothing on Traconis? How about driving all over with Dulos getting rid of murder evidence?
@@janewalls169 lying to investigators at best... this case against her is weak AF
@@konanoobiemasterobviously it wasn’t weak against her since she was found guilty today ! She wrote an alibi that’s far from weak
No matter how much in love I am there's no way any man can get me to be part of disposing absolutely nothing in so many stops...it was obvious and without a doubt MT was involved somehow but I think she'll play the victim card and that she did it bc she feared him and feared for her life...after all he's dead
I would be scared to death if I were Troconis. Wouldn’t you? Still I think that more than that, that guy seems to be a manipulative lair bastard able to trick anyone. How could his wife even merry this guy? The only reason is this guy was a creepy acting psychopath.
Why just say blood like stain? Should they do forensic test to determine whether they are blood and who it belongs to.
I thought the same thing ! They said they were tested and it was her blood
She could have claimed that he forced her to help him by threatening her….there is too much video evidence that will be plenty to send her away . But I was totally wrong about Casey Anthony’s verdict.
Sadly yes people do get away with it
Common sense tell me she knew. Sitting in the truck with him. Surely she would have asked him why they were stopping all over town throwing things away. She knew.
Nobody goes for a casual drive through the Northend of Hartford.
I'm am wondering if they were going to recover for evidence the seats from the employers truck. I know this is hard to even fathom this happened. But I want to piece together.in my mind. What may have happened that day. I just kinda would to see evidence in both the two vehicles that were basically involved in this case as well.
I think her husband came up from behind her when she was having her tea and breakfast bar and was able to catch her off guard and yet get control of her and drag her to the garage. At that point it was all over for the wife.
@@lisajeter9511I guess that he attacked her in the garage when she returned from school, he probably waited to get in to the garage when she opened it, she never made it to the kitchen, and he attacked her immediately
I wonder what the reaction of Michelle Troconis was when they showed this evidence.
Were those keys also found seen on the brown paper of collected items?
Could they be the house keys and vehicle keys to the home and vehicle left on the road?
It’s sad he didn’t say what happened and where her body is before committing suicide
UNREAL.
She seems like one of those people who will just never tell the truth, even when its right in your face
If Michelle was involved...then she should go to jail. If not, then I hope she's not found Guilty. Personally, I don't believe she was involved but, she definitely knows something. This coward left his girlfriend too take the fall. Very Sad Evil Guy. I pray Jennifer will be found. Prayers too the children and family. 😢😢😢😢😢
Sounds like part of her karma for being a mistress...oh well
What about the raincoat ponchos they disposed with blood on it?
Unless Michelle speaks up which I doubt. I don’t believe Jennifer will ever be found.
I just hope she isn’t found guilty bc she’s stained for being a home wrecker.
@@moniquesmith9930that’s not how the law works thank goodness. “Karma”, give me a break.
I think his desire to punish her was greater than his common sense.
Like in alot if murders, especially domestic cases.
Instead of living happily ever after with her Prince Charming, Michelle is left holding the (blood-soaked) bag... But the cool way she keeps chewing gum suggests that her attorney told her not to worry cuz he would ensure a "not guilty" verdict...
Please stop warning us. We are adults watching true crime.
2 ponchos, 1 razor, 1 screwdriver, 2 killers
Ponchos can be used to clean up and remove a body
Those police were on it. Good work.
Why they use the term blood like stains, it’s either Jennifer’s blood or it’s not? So it’s only blood like if it’s not hers?
This evidence is so disturbing
you mean the lack of it? literally none of the evidence submitted ties her to even a conspiracy 🤣
@@konanoobiemaster I wasn’t referring to the attachment to the defendent. I am disturbed by the gruesomeness of the bloody evidence. It’s horrific. We shall see whether or not troconis is guilty AFTER the state presents the evidence associated with her. Right now the state is showing evidence of the crime itself… they will build as the weeks go on.
Fotis was so Cold so Detached😢..and what is facial expression of Michelle seeing this now👀
She has the coldest face, all straight lines, Jennifer's face was open and animated.
What are they saying about the White bloody stained T-shirt's? Like the bloodspatter, what size was it! The same for the gloves
This is a trivial thing in the grand scheme of it all, but in the Chrysalis center video where the Raptor is facing the camera in a left turn lane, Fotis gunned it, cutting in front an oncoming car who had to brake for him in the intersection. I wonder if he was just in an urgent hurry that day or if he routinely was a self-important a-ho**. If the latter, I can't imagine how Jennifer could have tolerated that for so long, From what I read she was a quiet, thoughtful person.
She was slaughtered...He had help..They cut her clothes off
Never, ever, abaid in helping someone you think you love, help in covering up a murder!. Who would ever do this for another personal, but a crazy wacko. I feel so deeply sad for the kids!!.😢😢
What is the theory of how Jennifer was killed? Why the zip ties?
Shes the cutest lil news lady ive ever seen in all the land
What is with the keys?
With all this evidence, how can they not use the cameras to track where he dumped her body
I’ve been asking yt channels about that.
He purposely left his phone back at his house during the murder. When he was dumping the bloody items, he had his phone but he underestimated law enforcement’s ability to retrieve those items in time.
Why keep calling it blood like ? It’s been tested and it is blood … Jennifer’s.
The sound is horrible!😢
It is obvious that is blood, but what about DNA EVIDENCE?
yet troconia family shouted at the podium she’s innocent we don’t know what happened -
the running away theory again
shame on them shame on all of them her family’s attitude is why she was involved .
I will never understand why he even got a BOND. His lover was in on it for sure. Justice will come and when he kill himself he come to hell IMO
Because we (U.S.A.) don't have a justice system,we have a legal system. If you have personal wealth, you receive preferential treatment.It's more of an accounting decision of the State,expenditure v reward.
@@boathousejoed1126 Thank God I live in Sweden AMEN
Why are they saying “blood-like?” Don’t they know?
I just don't know if there is enough evidence to prove that she knew what he was doing...it's like they are prosecuting Dulos instead of her. All they are doing is showing that poor Jennifer was murdered but when do they get to the part proving she was involved? I'm not saying she wasn't involved or had knowledge, but they need to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. IMO both prosecution and defense attorneys are awful and seem to have just graduated law school at the bottom of their classes
She is at least accessory after the fact. Unless she is mentally deficient there’s no way she was unaware of the contents of the bags. Also the smell. Even bagged there would have been an odor of blood and death
I agree. They aren't proving that she did anything to cause that murder
First of all, she isn't being charged with killing Jennifer, so they don't need to prove she killed her, she's being charged with conspiracy to commit murder, we have 6 weeks' worth of trial to go through
I think the entire trial so far is not proving innocent or guilt to this point. Unless something amazing pops off Michelle Traconis will walk away from this.
The prosecution first must show Jennifer is presumed gone (especially with no body found), & that Fotis is responsible before they can link Michelle to any crime. Keep watching...
Yes, she had something to do with it, she was ith him while he disposed her cloting and maybe her body.
They are showing evidence of of Mr.Troconis guilt, but I haven't yet heard her guilt
She’s going down
Please tell me they found Fotis or troconis’s and or Jennifer’s dna on those gloves and zip ties. That fact was not mentioned and I was so waiting for it.
DNA will likely be found on the inside of the gloves
Yeah, I think she knew and helped him dispose of the body, but they really need something that says this is 💯 fact.
Apparently her lawyers have been fighting about terms and words used in testimony so they can’t said it’s blood until the exact people that tested it are called so I think it will have to be the one that did the dna tests called before they even mention that
@@tiffanieoverby7803 I was wondering. I feel like eventually the prosecutors are going to drop a big truth bomb that’s going to make it clear she was involved with disposing of the body and evidence. I mean I hope so, or they’re case is f’d.
That's the case in all trials. Police are just establishing the source and chain of possession for evidence.@@tiffanieoverby7803
Clothing removed makes me think the body was dismembered was placed in water so no way to connect identity. Im thinking someone else did the murder and fotis got rid of clothing etc.
Fotis did the murder. Didn’t he drive nearby then ride a bicycle to the house, then go back to the truck his employee let him use ?
Yikes 😮
Horrific 😮
Did they find the body yet??
Jennifer wore an EXTRA SMALL T-SHIRT! Jennifer was a small woman
Yes, and a prettier and classier woman than the mistress.
I wonder where the rest of her clothes from that day are?
Looking at that shirt and bra, that garage had to be covered in blood,just saturated. It’s sickening. God knows what happened, you can’t hide your actions or involvement from God!
Vinyard Vines is not having a good year, this is the second trial where this brand has been part of a murder trial (Murdaugh and now this). So horrifying.
Does anyone notice that MT is wearing the SAME Vineyard Vines striped shirt as was Jennifer’s blood-soaked striped shirt found in the dumped bag? Eery…
