The last time anyone saw Jennifer Dulos was when she was dropping her five kids off at their exclusive Connecticut private school on May 24 last year. The question is, was she murdered or did she fake her disappearance along the lines of the hit novel Gone Girl?
Last week, after eight months of investigation, police finally decided they had enough evidence to charge Jennifer’s ex-husband, Fotis Dulos, with her murder, despite her body never having been found.

The case has gripped Americans. Jennifer was born into the wealthy Farber family of New York. She met Fotis, who grew up in Greece, in the late 1980s when they were both studying at the prestigious Brown University.
The couple eventually married in 2004, and Jennifer’s parents Hilliard and Gloria put some of their money towards setting up Fotis as a real estate developer.
Jennifer and Fotis had five children, but their marriage was troubled.

Just a few questions to this:
1) the family friend who saw the family at the waterskiing competitions- why would he abuse his kids openly? Doesn’t mean it didn’t happen behind closed doors. I find that whole comment ridiculous.
2) how many rolls of paper towel did they have if 10 went missing? Why did she check the paper towel stockpile? Seems like if you had that much, you wouldn’t think to check if any had gone missing
3) congratulations to the ex-husband for attempting to use a work of fiction as a plausible excuse. The woman had 5 young children, doubt she’d bugger off just to make him suffer (And her elderly mother in looking after them). The work of fiction was of a childless couple and a cheating husband. Did he cheat? What a ridiculous assertion. By trying to shift blame and rely on a fictional story as a defence, it is hard to not infer guilt.
