    Kimberly Sullivan rejects plea deal as Waterbury captivity case heads to trial
    Sep 17 2026
    The Waterbury captivity case is moving toward trial. Kimberly Sullivan has rejected a plea offer and is preparing to stand trial on charges including kidnapping, assault, unlawful restraint and intentional cruelty to persons. Her attorney says she maintains her innocence and expects the trial to begin early next year. Meanwhile, S is facing a separate legal hurdle as he lays the groundwork for a potential lawsuit against the Connecticut Department of Children and Families. His attorneys are seeking additional DCF records they say could shed light on the agency's past involvement in his case, while the state is seeking to have his claim dismissed. In this episode of Decades Unseen: The Waterbury Captivity Case, NBC Connecticut breaks down what happened in court, the dispute over DCF records, and what comes next for both cases.

  • COURT UPDATE: What's next for 2 Blake Street?

    COURT UPDATE: What's next for 2 Blake Street?
    May 28 2026

    In this update on Decades Unseen: The Waterbury Captivity Case, we take you inside a tense probate court hearing centered around 2 Blake Street, the Waterbury home at the heart of the case.

    As questions grow about the future of the property, newly revealed court records and emotional testimony expose deeper scrutiny over how the estate of Kregg Sullivan has been handled since his death in 2024. The hearing focused on whether Kimberly Sullivan should control the estate and oversee the sale of the home tied to the case.

    Instead, the judge made the decision to appoint an independent third party to take over, citing concerns about prior probate filings that failed to include S as an heir.

    We break down the foreclosure lawsuit, the attempted sale of the property, the courtroom exchanges that shifted the tone of the hearing, and what the ruling means moving forward for both the estate and for the ongoing criminal case against Kimberly Sullivan.

    In this episode of Decades Unseen: The Waterbury Captivity Case, we focus on what happened after firefighters carried S from the home — and what we actually know about S’s condition today. Since the fire in February 2025, details about his recovery have been scarce — by design. Court records have been sealed. His care is being managed by a conservator. And those closest to him say his story will be told — only when he’s ready. We take you through the limited updates from investigators, legal filings, and the only statement S has released — in his own words. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    In this episode, we turn the lens toward the woman at the center of the case: Kimberly Sullivan. While “S” alleges he was held captive for two decades, Sullivan’s defense tells a very different story—one of wrongful accusation, weak evidence, and a rush to judgment. From her attorney’s forceful denials to a former coworker’s memories, this episode explores the stark divide between accusation and defense. Who is Kimberly Sullivan beyond the headlines?
