NBC CONN’S .. KRISTEN
JOHNSON WAS IN THE
COURTROOM.
FOTIS DULOS WAS CALLED INTO
COURT TODAY AFTER PROBATION
OFFICERS RAISED AN ALARM
ABOUT HIS ANKLE BRACELET.
THEY SAY HE’S LETTING THE
BATTERY ON HIS GPS
MONITORING DEVICE GET TOO
LOW.
"A LOW BATTERY STATUS IS NOT
A TRIVIAL CONDITION."
CONCERN TODAY, OVER
WHETHER FOTIS DULOS IS
FAILING TO FOLLOW THE
CONDITIONS OF HIS RELEASE BY
NOT CHARGING THE BATTERY ON
THE ANKLE BRACELET USED TO
TRACK HIS EVERY MOVE.
I WOULD ASK THAT YOU START
SETTING A CURFEW FOR HIM
BECAUSE HE’S OBVIOUSLY JUST
SNUBBING HIS NOSE AT THE
COURT." (BUTTED WITH) 16:50
"THIS IS A PERSON THAT
BELIEVES THAT HE IS ABOVE
THE COURT’S ORDERS AND
DOESN’T REALLY UNDERSTAND
THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT
HE’S FACING ."
BUT, DEFENSE ATTORNEY NORM
PATTIS QUESTIONED WHETHER
HIS CLIENT EVEN NEEDS TO
WEAR A TRACKING DEVICE.
"I AM UNAWARE OF ANY OTHER
CASE IN THE STATE OF
CONNECTICUT WHERE A
PERSON NOT CHARGED WITH A
CRIME OF VIOLENCE WITH NO
CRIMINAL HISTORY HAS HAD AN
ELECTRONIC MONITORING
DEVICE IMPOSED."
SO FAR, AUTHORITIES HAVE
ONLY CHARGED DULOS WITH
TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE
AND HINDERING PROSECUTION
IN CONNECTION WITH HIS
ESTRANGED WIFE JENNIFER’S
DISAPPEARANCE. THE JUDGE
UPHELD THE CONDITIONS OF
DULOS’ RELEASE ON BOND AND
LEFT HIM WITH A WARNING.
"YOU KNOW THERE’S TWO
DOORS OUT OF THIS COURTROOM.
THERE’S THAT DOOR AND
THERE’S THE DOOR OUT BACK
WITH YOUR COUNCIL, AND I
DON’T WANT TO SEND YOU
THROUGH THAT DOOR."
AFTER COURT, DULOS DECLINED
TO COMMENT ON THE CASE,
WHICH IS NOW UNDER A GAG
ORDER, BUT DID HAVE A
MESSAGE FOR HIS FAMILY.
"I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL
THESE PEOPLE THAT HAVE
GIVEN ME THEIR SUPPORT. I
JUST WANT TO TELL YOU HOW
MUCH I LOVE MY CHILDREN
AND I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE
THEM."
"DULOS WILL BE BACK IN COURT
ON OCTOBER 4TH. THAT’S
WHEN HIS ATTORNEY SAYS HE
PLANS TO ARGUE HIS MOTION TO
HAVE THE CHARGES AGAINST
HIS CLIENT DISMISSED. IN
