Lawyers for missing Connecticut mom's husband calls report of her blood-stained shirt 'speculation'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Attorneys for Fotis Dulos say reports that investigators found a blood-stained T-shirt and bra that may be what his client's estranged wife, Jennifer Dulos, was wearing on the day she disappeared sound "like desperate speculation."
“I am unaware of any evidence about what she was wearing when she disappeared,” Dulos' attorney Norm Pattis said in a statement responding to reports by The Hartford Courant.

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The paper reported Wednesday that the items of clothing, including a Vineyard Vines T-shirt that family members say the Hartford mom wore, were uncovered after police sifted through tons of trash.
Fox News also confirmed that Dulos' defense team received 26 CDs in discovery that prosecutors say show a man that appears to be Fotis Dulos dumping bags of trash "which appeared to be stained with a substance consistent with the appearance of blood," along Albany Avenue starting on the day his wife disappeared, according to court documents.
Pattis said that he was unable to view some of the footage on the CDs, and has asked Stamford/Norwalk State’s Attorney Richard Colangelo for new copies of several of the discs.
