Jennifer Dulos has been missing for more than six months, but people in New Canaan are showing that she is not forgotten this holiday season.
Tributes to the mother of five have been popping up around town in the form of ornaments that say, “Prayers for Jennifer.”
Alicia Brand Fellner owns a day spa in town and arrived at work to find someone had anonymously adorned the tree outside her business with the ornaments.
“I immediately got emotional. It's a wonderful gesture,” she told News 12.
Jennifer Dulos disappeared on May 24 after what police believe was a violent attack inside her New Canaan home. Police discovered video footage they say points toward her estranged husband Fotis Dulos and his girlfriend Michelle Troconis, and both are both charged with evidence tampering and hindering prosecution.
No one has taken credit for the ornaments yet, but the gesture has sparked gratitude throughout New Canaan.
Some people told News 12 that the person behind the ornaments is the same one who put out painted "Justice for Jennifer" rocks around town in the fall.
