Michelle Troconis was convicted of conspiracy to commit murder in the killing of Jennifer Dulos. She helped her boyfriend Fotis Dulos dispose of evidence after he killed his wife.

Michelle Troconis, 49, was the girlfriend of Fotis Dulos at the time he murdered his estranged wife Jennifer Dulos in May 2019. She was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, tampering with evidence, and hindering prosecution.

At trial, prosecutors presented surveillance footage showing Troconis and Fotis Dulos driving through Hartford disposing of garbage bags containing Jennifer's blood and clothing. They also showed that Troconis had helped craft alibis for Fotis.

Troconis maintained her innocence, claiming she didn't know what was in the bags and that Fotis had manipulated her. The jury rejected this defense.

In March 2024, Troconis was convicted of conspiracy to commit murder and other charges. She was sentenced to 14.5 years in prison in May 2024.
