Yes @Ruminations, the example of what you describe here was discussed extensively in the Civil Trial.Jennifer wrote checks back to FORE for babysitting (as if it were her bill from the marital money rather than their bill). If she were paying it, why not just write checks directly? It’s a weird arrangement that I can’t even conceptualize as a tax cheat, because the same amount came in as went out, right? But it was one of the many ways that Dulos showed that he and FORE were one and the same; any corporation that is really part of an individual loses its separate liability. I haven’t read the civil docs, but it could be that’s what Weinstein was working to establish or established. (I’m not sure how far down that path he wanted to go, however, because they were still married and Fotis was a dick who didn’t pay bills.)
Judge Heller verified in her order of custody that Fd was a 'dead beat' dad and had paid $0 to his children since JFd left 4Jx in 2017. This is in contrast to paying MT a salary at FORE and paying for her travel, car, expenses and those of her daughter. I believe this to be a VERY Important issue as to what the Fd financial priorities were during this period of time when he was arguing with Judge Heller to get MT access to the Dulos children and Judge Heller wasn't having any of it. IMO Fd was attempting to write JFd out of the lives of his children and simply have them view MT as their new 'mother' and FD was willing to give up access to his children for nearly 10 months whilst he was having this futile tantrum of disagreement with Judge Heller and Jfd.
We see over and over again where Fd doesn't seem to deal with 'what is' or even 'what's in the past', he boxes up those issues and those people and simply moves on.
The treatment of MT to me is probably one of the best examples of this compartmentalisation in the mind of Fd. Fd used MT as his mistress and 'fun buddy' and travelled extensively with her/her daughter for years. But MT was tossed like a piece of trash when she was no longer accessible and the newer younger model mistress Anna Curry was installed at the new 'Queen of 4Jx' without missing a beat IMO. Stunning and cold IMO treatment too by Atty. P. who called MT the 'lying lover'.
Fd disposed of MT and wrote her off at around the time she and her family removed her belongings from 4Jx. The pair weren't allowed to speak or have contact (Atty Colangelo is investigating whether they did have contact when they shouldn't have during the period after the no contact order was put into place).
Can you imagine the rage of MT who got sucked into the dream of being the lifelong 'Queen of 4Jx' and who was front and centre and an integral component of the murder of JFd when she saw and heard about the arrival of the younger model Anna Curry who got the white BMW M3?
Did Fotis pay himself a salary? Michelle could have been paid their couple money, with the expectation that she pays the bills that just can’t be charged to FORE for the both of them, and Fotis thus avoids having the income to pay to support his own children.
We never got total clarity on how the Dulos' managed their finances but it SEEMED IMO that JFd for the most part paid for everything from babysitting to school and special activities. It was unclear that Fd paid for any of the household expenses and when you look at the ongoing commentary from the Greek Family it appears that first he supported his parents moving from Greece to Avon/Canton and then he supported his family and friends back in Greece when the downturn hit them hard. We know that Fd did pay back FIL up until the time of FIL death in 2017 and then he stopped paying back the existing loans or interest or mortgage payment due on 4Jx.
I think many here have referred to Fd and really nothing more than a 'gigolo' whose lifestyle was financed by a much wealthier wife. Frankly, I don't think this characterisation is that far off reality based on what we heard in Family Court. We also know that Fd paid MT a salary ($120,000/yr it is believed) and also paid for all her travel and that of her daughter. We don't know precisely how much money JFd 'reimbursed' Fd for household expenses and where this money went. We do know that the Chubb checks referenced in AW3 eventually made their way into Fd personal checking account and no doubt ended up in the pocket of Pattisville. We know that Fd cash contribution to his last FAUX bail bond was $1,000. Perhaps he was tapped out at his death. We know that the idea of the Greek Benefactor was just a ruse and that this most likely was just Fd repatriating cash he had squirrelled away over the years.
We don't yet know the role of Anna Curry in FD finances or the outcome of the FAUX Bail Bond which was fraudulent. It appears that she had worked not as an asset manager for the past 6 years but she certainly had expertise in this area and could no doubt assist FD in hiding cash.
We know that MT was present at FORE and with FD during a time when hiding assets and certainly cash was a priority. We saw the MT role in the 123 Hunter transaction which was discussed extensively in Family Court and where the loan officer Sue Morin took the 5th when deposed in Family Court.
We don't know the extent of the cash or assets sent to 'sister' Rena but she lists herself as a FORE employee since 2004 and said she was instrumental in the setup and operation of the business. So far as we know Rena was NEVER deposed by Atty Weinstein.
We have Andreas Tout mentioned in AW3 and this brings in the issue of shipping and global transport which is his area of expertise. AW3 doesn't mention precisely where LE is going with their evidence as it relates to Andreas Tout. Previously we had seen Andreas Tout brother Yannis involved with loans made to Fd for real estate.
Still lots of questions and still lots of people about whom we have little information.
MOO
