Fotis Dulos, the estranged husband of missing woman Jennifer Dulos, was arrested Tuesday, his attorney Norm Pattis said. He faces charges of capital murder, murder, and kidnapping, a source close to the investigation said.
The Connecticut mother of five has been missing since May.
The couple was involved in a contentious child custody battle at that time.
Dulos has been previously arrested in the case for tampering with evidence.
