Summary

Andrea Canning and Dennis Murphy discuss his latest episode, “A Life Interrupted.” Within months of the disappearance of Connecticut mother of five, Jennifer Dulos, Dennis sat down with her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos – the man investigators believe murdered her. Dennis tells Andrea what it was like in 2024 to sit in a Connecticut courtroom and see not Fotis, but his girlfriend Michelle Troconis on trial for conspiracy to commit murder, among other charges. Dennis brings Andrea up to speed on the high-tech investigation at the center of the case and the heartache of those left behind. He plays a podcast-exclusive snippet of his powerful interview with a group of Jennifer’s friends and answers viewers and listeners questions from social media.
