Blood found in Jennifer Dulos’ home, search shifts to N.Y.
snipped The Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence released a statement Thursday in response to Jennifer Dulos’ disappearance. The coalition addressed Dulos’ court filings where she stated she was afraid of her husband and fearful he would retaliate because she filed for divorce.
“While news reports have offered the idea that this circumstance is a result of a custody dispute, there is more than sufficient detail in court documents to authentically describe this situation for what it is; domestic violence,” the coalition’s statement reads.
“Ms. Dulos offered to the court on more than one occasion that she was fearful of her husband who could be vengeful and dangerous. We know that domestic violence is a pattern of behavior that is centered on power and control. Abusers use various strategies to threaten, harass, control and intimidate their partner, including the practice of continuing this conduct through the family court process. When a victim is leaving a relationship and taking steps to move away from the abuse and coercion, this can be the most dangerous time.”
