During an emotional sentencing hearing in Stamford, CT, Dulos' five children, aged 13 to 18, delivered powerful victim impact statements, condemning Troconis as "evil" and detailing the profound impact of her actions on their lives.
Petros Dulos, the eldest son, now 18, described the unfillable void left by his mother's death. "I've been left with a hole inside of me I will never be able to fill," he said, adding that Troconis’ actions had "irreparable effects" on his life. "My mother was everything to me."
His siblings also shared their pain. Constantine Dulos, 16, stated, "I’ll never be the same person. All is lost because of Michelle." Christiane Dulos, 15, highlighted the emotional toll, saying, "Michelle is the reason why I am completely lost in the world."
Prosecutors believe Jennifer’s estranged husband, Fotis Dulos, killed her on May 24, 2019, with Troconis’ help in covering up the crime. Jennifer's body has never been found, and Fotis Dulos committed suicide in 2020 after being charged with her murder.
Troconis was convicted in March of conspiracy to commit murder, hindering prosecution, and evidence tampering. She faces up to 50 years in prison.
Throughout the hearing, the children called for the maximum sentence and urged Troconis to disclose the location of their mother's remains. Theodore Dulos, 17, directly addressed Troconis: "If you had just the least bit of humanity, I suggest you let all of us know what happened that day and where my mother is."
Jennifer Dulos' family members, including her sister Melissa Farber and mother Gloria Farber, also read impact statements, underscoring the deep sorrow and lasting trauma caused by her murder.
Troconis has maintained her innocence and plans to appeal her convictions. The tragic case continues to leave a profound mark on those who loved Jennifer Dulos and are still seeking closure.
