Saturday, Feb. 13

Michelle Troconis has been dubbed "the other woman" in a headline-making story about a Connecticut mother of five, Jennifer Dulos, who vanished and is believed to have been killed by her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos. He was charged with murder, but died by suicide weeks after his arrest leaving Troconis the focus of the investigation, as she faces multiple charges in Jennifer Dulos' presumed murder. Now, in their first interview, Troconis' family members defend her in 48 HOURS: "What Does The Other Woman Know? The Disappearance of Jennifer Dulos" to be broadcast Saturday, Feb. 13 (10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

"This has shattered our life because my sister is not the person that they're saying," says Michelle Troconis' sister Claudia Troconis. "And she never would be capable of anything they've said that she has done."

Michelle Troconis, Fotis Dulos' girlfriend, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, evidence tampering and hindering prosecution - all charges she denies. And in some exclusive excerpts from interrogation videos, she insists she has no information about Jennifer Dulos' disappearance.

"I have no idea what happened to Jennifer. I have no idea where Jennifer is," Troconis tells police.

When Detective John Kimball tells her they believe she has information she's not sharing, Troconis responds: "I don't have, John, but I can walk the whole world with you if you want... I can do whatever you want but I didn't do it."

Jennifer Dulos disappeared on May 24, 2019 after dropping her five children off at school. Police found her abandoned SUV near a park three and a half miles away from her Connecticut home. At the time, she was in the middle of an ugly divorce and custody battle with her husband, Fotis Dulos. Investigators believe Dulos attacked Jennifer that morning, killing her, and then disposed of her body. Jennifer's body has never been found. Fotis Dulos died in January 2020 after attempting to take his own life.

Michelle Troconis is currently out on bond. Her family is adamant she is innocent. They say Troconis is not the person portrayed in stories about the case.

"Did your sister have anything to do with the death of Jennifer Dulos?" Moriarty asks Claudia Troconis.

"No, she did not," Claudia Troconis responds.

"Do you believe that Michelle knows where Jennifer's body is?" Moriarty asks Danielle Troconis.

"My sister is innocent," Daniela Troconis responds. "Absolutely not."

Moriarty and 48 HOURS investigate the disappearance of Jennifer Dulos and the case against Fotis Dulos and Michelle Troconis through interviews with their families, friends, investigators, and Dulos and Troconis' attorneys. The broadcast also includes a 2019 visit to Fotis Dulos' home, with Dulos and his family, around Christmas, just 10 days before he was arrested for murder, and an interview with Dulos' attorney, Norm Pattis, on the day his client died.
