According to WTNH News 8 , some of the surveillance footage collected by police following pings on Fotis Dulos's phone shows a man -- who police believe is Fotis Dulos -- dumping garbage in front of a Spanish restaurant near Albany Avenue and Garden Street in Hartford.

Attorneys for Fotis Dulos are seeking an emergency order that would force state prosecutors to share key pieces of evidence in the case against their client.
The emergency order, filed Tuesday by attorney Norm Pattis, asks the judge to compel the state attorney to share the evidence “critical” to his client’s defense. If the state does not play ball, Pattis asked that the state be prevented from using any evidence it won’t share in the prosecution.

State police have interviewed the employees of a Hartford restaurant where a section of carpet or mat they believe is tied to the May 24 disappearance of Jennifer Farber Dulos was left the day she went missing — the second key piece of evidence investigators have been unable to track down.

But a day earlier, on Friday, Aug. 23, the attorney for her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos, was busy on TV saying there may be certain records that are critical in clearing his client's name.

Since May 24, state and local police have conducted massive searches, and...

The lawyer representing Fotis Dulos said in court papers filed Tuesday that prosecutors are so focused on proving Dulos killed his estranged wife, Jennifer Farber Dulos, that investigators are “desperate” to find an accomplice in the case and ignoring other potential leads.
The potential accomplice is critical to the state’s case, attorney Norm Pattis said, because Dulos can prove he was no where near New Canaan the day Farber Dulos disappeared.

As the search for Jennifer Dulos nears three months, her estranged husband will be questioned this week about his financial affairs and his girlfriend will be back in court on pending criminal charges related to the disappearance.

There was a moment this month when Norm Pattis admitted he thought he’d have to call his wife to plead his innocence when he saw a headline about his client, Fotis Dulos, offering his attorney a “sex pad.”
“I did a double take,” Pattis told Stamford Superior Court Judge John Blawie. “I was relieved to find out it wasn’t about me.”
Pattis made the comment as he argued vigorously against the prosecution’s request for a gag order...

The prosecution objected to Pattis’...

The attorney for Fotis Dulos is asking a judge to deny what appears to be a “gag” order in the case of his missing estranged wife.
Prosecutors want to prevent Jennifer Dulos' estranged husband and his attorney from talking publicly about this case, which has no doubt gained international attention.
Attorney Norm Pattis is firing back, sharing a 7-page letter, opposing the motion, saying "The motion has the look and feel of pursuit of a “gag” order, and should...

The lawyer for the estranged husband of a missing New Canaan woman released a statement Friday after a judge granted custody of the man's children to his ex-mother-in-law.
Norm Pattis, who represents Fotis Dulos, released a statement saying, "Fotis misses his children deeply.

We are evaluating his appellate options," Pattis...
