Although an extensive police investigation has not turned up her whereabouts, the family of Jennifer Dulos believes she is not alive, an attorney representing he mother Gloria Farber told WFSB.

Attorney Richard Weinstein who is representing Farber in lawsuits filed against her son-in-law Fotis Dulos, told WFSB this week that the family of Jennifer Dulos is mourning her death.

“I would say, without a doubt, it's our client's belief that Jennifer is dead. It certainly is my belief. It is certainly the belief of all of her friends and all the people who knew Jennifer and wish they could find a way to resolve this awful situation," Weinstein said during an interview with WFSB.

Fotis Dulos told Dateline NBC he believes his wife is alive — and hopes she’ll turn up to exonerate him of wrongdoing.

“I wish she were here to sort this mess out and I’m still hoping she’s going to show up,” Dulos told NBC’s Dennis Murphy in an interview that aired Monday night.

Weinstein made his comments as part of a discussion about the foreclosure action he initiated against Fotis Dulos seeking the return of the Jefferson Crossing home where he has been living since Jennifer Dulos filed for divorce in June 2017.

Weinstein is seeking $2.5 million for the mortgages on the home which were secured by securities and cash from the Farber family.

Fotis Dulos stopped paying the mortgages on the home in November 2018 as he was involved in a bitter divorce with Jennifer Dulos and as Farber was suing him for $2.3 million in unpaid business loans made by the family to his company the Fore Group.

According to previous court filings and Weinstein, Fotis Dulos paid back about $320,000 of a $500,000 second mortgage to the Farbers as part of the purchase of the Jefferson Crossing home. The Farbers also put up $2.3 million in securities and cash to BNY Mellon in 2012 to allow Fotis Dulos to get a mortgage to purchase the 15,000-square-foot home. Farber began making the payments to Mellon in November 2018, even as Fotis Dulos and his girlfriend, Michelle Troconis were living there, Weinstein said.

Jennifer Dulos disappeared on May 24 after dropping her five children off at school in New Canaan where she was renting a home with the financial help of her family since leaving Fotis Dulos. Police charged Fotis Dulos and Troconis with tampering withe evidence and hindering prosecution after recovering garbage bags containing items stained with the blood of Jennifer Dulos in Hartford.

They were charged a second time last week with tampering evidence after police said the pair cleaned a Fore Group employee's vehicle that contained the blood of Jennifer Dulos on seats in the vehicle. Police also uncovered videos of the truck driving to and from New Canaan on the morning Jennifer Dulos went missing.

The owner of the truck was using Fotis Dulos' pickup that day, police documents said.
