FSU Law Professor Murder Trial Prosecution Opening Statement

  • Sigfredo Garcia, 37, and Katherine Magbanua, 35, stand trial in Leon County, Florida in the 2014 shooting death of Florida State University Law Professor Dan Markel, 41.
    The victim was shot twice in the garage of his home on the morning of July 18, 2014, and he passed away the next day at a hospital.
    Who did it? The alleged answer is messy and fraught, even by the standards of a typical murder case. Markel had had an ugly divorce from his ex-wife. Police have said that they think Magbanua was the link between at least one of Markel’s in-laws and the murder.
    She used to date the brother of the victim’s wife, and cops said that she had begun receiving checks from the family’s dentistry business, according to The Tallahassee Democrat. She also has children with Garcia.
    Luis Rivera pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in Markel’s shooting death last year. He told cops that Magbanua helped set up the murder, and that she hired Garcia for the killing, according to The South Florida Sun Sentinel. Garcia, in turn, allegedly recruited Rivera for backup.
    Police believe the ex-wife’s brother and the mother possibly played a role in the plot. None of them have been charged, however. State Attorney Willie Meggs cited lack of evidence, saying that the allegation was speculation.
    Rivera, who is already spending 12 years in prison for a federal racketeering case, is set to spend another seven years for the Markel murder. This February quote from Magbanua’s attorney Christopher DeCoste likely foreshadows how the defense will attack Rivera’s story at trial.
    “The prosecution created a theory fit for a soap opera, built a case around that preposterous plot using the wholly unreliable word of a thug as mortar, and peddled it through the media without mentioning any of the massive inconsistencies,” he said, according to the Sentinel. “Before they turned Luis Rivera, a lifelong gangster, into their snitch, the threadbare circumstantial evidence wasn’t even enough to arrest Katie.”

They dont even care about Katherine Magbanua what they are aiming at is the Andelson family specially Windi and her mom . You can clearly see that the prossecuter puts the accent on the Adelson's family and who had the most motives to hire a hit man on windi's husband .this is to influence the jury so that she can make a plea bargin with Katherine Magbanua so that she will spill the beans if ever she wants to see her kids again one day . Her entire case is based on those expectations to bring the real killers to justiceand conspiracy to commit murder with an actual murder case always finish with death row or real life without parole with no possibility of freedom

    1 Timothy 6:10 King James Version (KJV)
    10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
    Revelation 6:15-17 King James Version (KJV)
    15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
    16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
    17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
    Isaiah 24 King James Version (KJV)
    24 Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
    2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.
    3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word.
    4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
    5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
    6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
    7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh.
    8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
    9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.
    10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
    11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.
    12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
    13 When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.
    14 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea.
    15 Wherefore glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel in the isles of the sea.
    16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.
    17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.
    18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.
    19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
    20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.
    21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
    22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
    23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

    The state of Florida has an excellent case against these two defendants. Unfortunately for justice, it does not have an excellent prosecutor. Georgia Cappleman is when at her best mediocre, but most often she's ineffective and at times almost incompetent.
    In her opening arguments Cappleman muddles thru what is otherwise a clear and compelling line of evidence leading directly to not only the defendants but also the Adelmans. She leaves the jury focused on mundane ancillary issues and obscures Wendi Adelman's ultimate involvement, and hence what should be the state's theory of the case.
