The Adelsons have gotten away with this unthinkable crime for far too long. Time to indict Wendi Adelson.
Wendi NEEDS to fall for being Complicit in this crime....She is a selfish women
@@Tammyperry1she’s a narcissist too. She is an un-indicted co-conspirator.
Yup get er done ❤!
If not street justice will suffice
@@kimclarke5018Grandiose Narcissist!💯
More class in her little finger than all four of those Adelsons.
Proud to say she is a Canadian. And we have manners and let the courts do their thing. God I sure hope her hubby and herself and the other family members get to see those boys.
Yes, the contrast between the two families isn’t lost on me.
💯
Wouldn't be too hard to have more class and morals than the evil Adelsons.
The saddest part of this tale is where would Dan's boys have been better off and why are they still with evil Adelson?
Dear Mrs. Markel, I am so sorry you lost your son. It seemed like he was a beautiful soul. ❤
I am an Australian lawyer watching this awful situation and tragedy from down here. My heart goes out to the Markel family and it looks like that, finally, the family is going to get justice. It started with Charles, now Donna and I hope that it ends with Wendi.
I don't think the daughter is guilty in anyway. She couldn't control her mother's and brother's action. She is a victim too I believe but I can be wrong. I don't see any guilt on her part. Again, you can't control other people.
Wendi is definitely involved and has much knowledge about it all. The mother/brother/father didn't just jump into BS because they wanted to make sure she stayed close to home. This is a selfish family.
Apologist.@@gerrimiller8727
@@gerrimiller8727 U R delusional.
Evil runs in their family. Wendi was part of the murder plot by laying the groundwork for her husband's demise.😮😮@@gerrimiller8727
Wendi blurting out that grandparents' rights are unconstitutional tells you everything you need to know about Wendi's treatment of Dan's parents after her family had Dan murdered
Her mask dropped then! 🎭
100% so cold
Cold blooded 😣
A constitution was created for family. Not the other way around. Wendi's view is only a legal one, not a human one
Mrs Markel, has been given a date in December to see Dans boys, ( by wendi), unreal, could have been Sooner! Why not immediately, I believe she has a dirty trick, perhaps a holiday somewhere, rug pulled out from underneath the Markels feet AGAIN!
What a great woman! She's strong, sensitive, has a gentle humor and is very gracious.I hope justice will be swift.
What a contrast to the (so-called) maternal grandmother!
😊hi from Australia 🇦🇺

She also lived an extraordinary life. She did all sorts of important, nationally important, things in her life - has had a real role in the development of her country.
Unlike Donna Adelson who only pushed the boundaries on expenditure of plastic surgery. Listening to speak in phone calls - explains completely the idea of the banality of evil.
@@IR-hd8pyfriend of the Adelsons?
One of the many things I love about Vinnie is his compassion for the victims. He is literally one of the best TV hosts on the air.
Yaaaasss 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love Vinnie ❤❤
Agree
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ruth Markel, is a warrior. It's hard enough to deal with grief but murder? 10 years? 3 trials? No access to her grandchildren? She's phenomenal. ❤ I can't imagine how proud her son must be of his mom.
Compare Ruth to Donna. Is there any question Dan was the superior character to Wendi?
Exactly
@@piteusx8440 Ruth is a loving lady, while Donna is the tramp.
Yup why isn’t her husband not jail or Wendi it crazy
@@piteusx8440reading her text from Donna to Wendi it crazy u know Wendi was involved just with the change of name she hated Dan she changed stated to Florida not letting grandma see grand kids she involved
The fact the Markel family had to pass a literal bill through state congress to see their grandkids tells me everything
It certainly shows legal mojo.
@@NHayward-lx1he agreed. it's very impressive.
When Wendi was asked about this Florida law by Georgia, Wendi angrily replied " I think it's unconstitutional" ....
@@julielindsey6984 I really hope they put her in front of a jury one day
Thank you to every one who was brave enough to come forward with all the little pieces necessary to convict those responsible for Dan's murder...the neighbor, the ex-boyfriend, etc. So much respect to all of you.
That too. I always hoped that Dan would get justice.
Thank you to the amazing prosecution team!!

People who are called to testify in Court usually are not there on their own accord. They receive a subpoena and must show up.
Where is Wendi's indictment?
This womans courage and dignity amazes me everytime, may God always bless her for the rest of her life, to have lost such a magnificint son to this evil family must be a heartbreaker.
This mother has shown nothing but decorum and grace.I couldn't. I just couldn't.Its obvious where her son hot his intelligence and commitment. I have nothing but respect for this mother.
I have nothing but disgust for her. What an unholy soul she has. Just because she's "acting" like a lady. She's a complete low life to rob her grand children of their father? Get real
I'm so sorry I thought you were talking about Dans Mother!!! My apologies!
We stand with you Ruth, Justice for Dan🙏🏾
This is a heartbreaking story. She lost her son and can barely interact with his legacy. I feel so bad for Dan's parents and sons.
Amen
They have a living/loving Mother that will take awesome care of them.
@@lalam6320living yes loving lmfao ( she loves them so much she killed their father) they are still 50% him, so she will never be free from Dan😂😂😂
@@lalam6320 They do have a living mother.
Adelsons are toxic killers...all of them
This crime was completely senseless. My heart goes out to Dan's parents & sister. As for Donna Adelson, why would you EVER have your own son involved in such an evil plot? She should pay the price. Dan's children are growing up without their loving dad.. This is what Donna Adelson did to her 2 grandkids. She had their dad murdered. That is not love. To do this to your grandkids. To do this to your once son-in-law. Just so absolutely evil.
Exactly. The whole thing is just mind-blowing!!
I'm sure Wendi knew all about too!
💯evil
Dan's Mom is a class act. Representing for her family, and not lashing out in bitterness and hate.
TOTAL opposite of Deadly Donna!
Much respect for the Markel’s. They remained poised and showed a lot of strength to sit through each trial. No facial expressions through all the testimony especially seeing them in the gallery through Charlie’s trial. Listening to Wendi literally lie about them having access to their grandchildren. Listening to wiretaps while Donna tending to their grandchildren, and Charlie’s BS extortion defense/lies. It’s too much to process. I don’t know if I could have the strength they had. All in the spirit of justice for their son. God rest his Dan Markel’s soul. He’s prosecuting from the grave. An attorney in life and afterlife. My heart breaks for the Markel’s. Hugs and prayers from afar. We love and support the Markel’s. They have much support from around the globe 🌍 The Adelson’s are morally bankrupt. They are Godless and have no heart and soul. I believe in karma and “you get what you give.” They have blood on their hands and now will pay the price!
🎯🎯💯🙏🙏🙏
🙏💛
This is extremely well written. 💯❤️
Amazing People my heart ♥️ goes out to them
❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾🫶🏾I'm glad the Markels remained humble after All these years dealing with the pain that the Adelesons have inflicted on their family. The most painful thing is trying to completely erase Dan from his children by changing their name💔🫶🏾🙏🏾Dan we getting them, now it's Wendy's turn. I just hope and pray they don't harm the children. Dan's mother is very humble and a strong woman❤️
Ruth Markel is incredibly strong . So kind with her words considering what’s she’s been through
How she doesn’t come across as the most furious person on earth I have no clue. The epitome of grace and class. The Adelson’s are the most undignified family I have ever seen
Canadian
I'm Canadian. I'm so sorry to the Markel Family. I hope all responsible go to jail
Sending Ruth, her husband and grandchildren healing energy, love and light. You got this.
Charlie being convicted & Donna now arrested has changed Ms Markel’s look. In court she looked tired, as anyone would, now she looks fresh & so much happier.
It really makes me happier to see her this way, also.
To Mr & Mrs Markel, Dan’s sister & the grandkids, I hope this is the best holiday season you’ve had in a while.
Ruth looks refreshed. Donna looks like death.
And the poor woman has to endure more trials. But yes hopefully Donna and her witch daughter also get jailed for a long long time.
She looks SO MUCH BETTER! 15 years younger
My Heart goes out to Ruth , Phil & Shelly. So Happy to see Charlie convicted, Donna arrested & I pray for Wendy 's arrest to. This has been horrendous!!! Justice for Dan! From Guelph, Ontario, Canada. 😞🙏
🇨🇦
and 🇬🇧
I'd hate to have you on my jury. You'd vote guilty before due process and even hearing any evidence
I agree! From your neighbour in Waterloo, 🙏🏼🇨🇦
Wendi won't be arrested. Not enough evidence to convic
I can’t get enough of this case. I’ve been following it from the beginning. I’m so happy the Markel family is FINALLY getting justice. ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My deepest condolences to you Ruth. I too lost my son to a murder as yet unsolved.
So sorry for your loss Stacy821 I hope that one day soon justice is served for your son and your family
My condolences to you. May he rest in peace and your family gets justice 🙏
@@NganLe-tb8btindeed!🙏
Let’s always remember the victims in this case: Dan, HIS CHILDREN, HIS PARENTS, and all of his family!! ❤❤❤
So true! They are the real ‘losers’ in all of this. His poor boys and parents will likely never get over this avoidable tragedy.
Ruth is an incredible woman. May I have just a portion of the devotion she has for her son. I can’t imagine what it takes to survive a tragedy of this magnitude.
So glad to see Dan's Mom. She is an absolute beautiful soul and sending love and peace to her and the family ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve only learned of this case last week. I’m a true crime junkie. I have to say this case is psychologically disturbing.
The Markel’s seem like such sweet people, my heart goes out to them for how much grief & heartbreak they’ve been through. Having a son violently murdered is horrific enough, but to have your grandkids ripped away from you just rubs salt in the wounds. Ruth & Phil are getting older & because of those evil people, they’re missing out on so many milestones & memories. I can’t imagine how their hearts are aching. I hope these arrests & convictions can bring them a little bit of peace.
These convictions/indictments are so beautifully ironic. Dan Markel sincerely loved the law and that's EXACTLY what ended up giving him justice. ❤️
Oh, I hadn't looked at it like that! Well done.
@Mykids, whata poignant sentiment. Much truth in this statement.
Ruth Markel, you are a warrior.
My heart breaks for the Markel family! Ruth is lovely!
My glasses never stopped fogging watching this. Much love to Ruth and the Markel family. I hate that you're still enduring this. Your grace will never go unnoticed.
So many tragedies lately! I’ve been in tears today. I just learned a few minutes ago on Nancy Grace UA-cam, that a beautiful college girl , very talented musician in Tennessee was walking in the park at 2 pm and a stray bullet hit her in the head and she died. And of course, the suspect had many felonies and 3 psychiatrists had testified that he was not a threat!! 😡😡😡
@@bbe3034
Sooo sad!😢😢😢
My heart goes out to the Markel family. Especially the children. Can you imagine growing up and your parents divorcing, fighting, and dad getting murdered. To now finding out your own mother, grandmother and uncle are the ones that had him murdered! On top of that I'm sure they were told how terrible their father's parents are and finding out they were actually living with the real evil. I pray they can get the help they need ❤
That’s been on my mind throughout all of this madness!!! Those poor boys… Their lives changed drastically when they lost their father. And, with each of these evil individuals’ arrests, their lives are changing dramatically over and over!! They’re still young, and probably don’t fully understand things right now, but they will eventually find out the truth about everything, and their lives will change once again! 😢
@@truecrimeuncensoredIf they can communicate and have a relationship with the Markels I think they will be okay.
I believe those boys are going to distance themselves from Wendy. As they discover how terrible she is, in addition to the rest of that horrible family!! Because that family has to reap what they’ve sown!!
What an amazing human this mother is.
This lady is my hero.
How she has handled all of it is evidence of her strength. Amazing mom..
A Mother’s Love has no bounds, no time, no end. You’re a remarkable woman, a beloved Mother. I’m so sorry for your loss. I have one son, and I love him so. I know Danny was a loving son, that makes you a rich, rich, and blessed woman.
Horríble so many lifes afected,how are the children dealing with all This ?
I can clearly see why Dan was successful in his short life his mother is an amazing woman.
❤
This case shows the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Donna is the polar opposite of Ruth Markel, who has shown grace and dignity throughout this horrible ordeal.
@@stacystacy87 Dan WAS successful that can never be questioned-I don’t think anyone as well as this brilliant lawyer could have predicted 1) divorce and 2) fierce custody battle 3) one parents intention to move the children away 4) a grandmother who disparages you in front of your children 5) in-laws have financial means they chose to use to plot a murder for hire that would take away 2 precious childrens father
@@BeStrong4everwell, for one his marriage was obviously not a success. He could not negotiate with his wife without using the children. Many men resort to this tactics. Nevertheless he did not deserve to be a victim of crime, unquestionably.
@@annashlimovichyou’re mad because he used legal parental rights to not be deprived of time with his kids. You’re in humane and probably as evil as Wendi and Donna
Mrs Markel, my heart breaks for you and your husband. Im so grateful you are getting some justice. Stay strong ma’am, i admire your grace and class navigating this horrific situation.
Lord I pray that you keep this woman healthy,alive and safe to see everyone who murdered her baby brought justice.
Mrs Markel is so gracious - she isn’t spiteful or unkind. Please purchase her book if you can to get more facts on the case .
I'm not buying her stupid book their family made enough money off the United States her son could have gone to law school in Canada
Canadian
It's a must-read, excellent heartfelt book.
I will purchase her book
What is the title of the book?
Justice for Dan
I truly love your passion Vinnie! In so many murders you are always on the victim’s side! I just love your perspective and your ability to be “in touch” with every single person throughout these horrific crimes to hopefully reach justice for the victims and their families!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
God Bless her and Mr Markel , my ❤ hurts so bad for them both. That they both can reunite with their grandsons ❤
Ruth is an amazing woman. I felt honored to have read her book. What a tragedy this poor family has had to endure 😓
This entire situation is insane
Very insane! Mind-boggling!
Right? Who does this? And thinks they're smart or rich enough to get away with it 😂
@@user-uq5gr5oi2k - unfortunately it has occurred many times
Dan s mother and father are just so amazing I have to get Ruth s book. As a Canadian I just love how all the American people just love Ruth.
I have her book! Hope to start it today. My heart breaks for all theyve been put through by that evil family.
I love Dan mother what a string woman . I admire Ruth Markel for being such a strong mother sitting through all of the trials to make sure her son gets justice. My heart goes out to you ❤
WENDI THE TRUE ONLY MASTERMIND.. SHE USED Donna And Charlie as puppetts
Absolutely , she manipulates everyone .
I think it was Donna but Wendy intentionally pushed her buttons. Wendy over dramatized the effects the divorce was having on her but it was Donna who got the murder plot in motion. The incoming hearing on Donna & Supervised visits was the last straw.
Wendi played Donna and Charlie like a fiddle. She knew Donna was capable of evil
You are exactly correct!!!! Wendi uses everyone she can to get what she wants and always covers her ass! I think the brother will eventually talk in prison and implicate her in the hit for hire!
Yup she the one who kept going to mommy dearest
What a bunch of narcissist people!!! , to think they can murder someone just because they didn't like the custody arrangements. Poor Markel kids and family 💔
If they wait a little maybe Dan will get married to new girl friend, busy with his new family and allows Wendi to move. I think Wendi was jelous he s dating a smart lawyer in NY. She doesn't want to see him happy even thou she doesn't love him anymore.
I like how you mentioned “he was killed bcuz he loved his kids” basically down to that!
And you also said, “Wendy couldn’t be a big girl and be a mom away from her parents…”
It is what it is.
Great passion on this case. I hope the Adelsons all go down in prison. Those poor boys will lose everything.
Love how court tv always convicts folks before they are ever charged or lord forbid, given a trial.
Ruth Markel is a class act.
I really worry for the safety of those 2 boys with their mother. God bless them
I agree.. how safe could they be after all of this..
What a brave woman Ruth Markel is.Thankfully she and her former husband are living to see justice.
Hi Vinnie! Love your coverage of these cases! Thanks for always keeping us updated as new information comes in! Love you lots!❤
Wendi needs to be arrested now, hopefully,
or after Donna’s case:
Only then will the Markel family have justice
💔🙏💔🙏💔🙏💔🙏💔🙏💔🙏💔🙏💔
The deal Wendi was given has extensive ramifications that even Georgia can’t overcome.
Sadly, Wendi will get away with murder, but she’ll have to watch her family go down!
@@lynnparrish1335 she will also need to watch her back I suspect
Hope she’s worried. She looked so rested in court unlike her bro. Looking forward to the day she looks I rested like him from the stress.
@@lynnparrish1335we shall see. If her mom is convicted, they’ll be heading for Wendi.
She is next for sure she took the money
Sending all my condolences to you and your family Mrs. Markel
I’d like to send my deepest condolences to Ruth Markel. I’m so sorry these horrid people took it upon themselves to take Dan’s life, and for what? I’ve been reading some of Dan’s law papers & learning more about his perspective on crime & punishment. I don’t want this awful event to be what he is remembered for, his work was truly inspiring. My love to the Markel family. ❤️
My lovely wife and I watched as much of C. Adelsons trial that our daily commitments, responsibilities and schedules would permit. What an incredible moment it was watching that arrogant, narcissistic fool receive by hearing the verdict read aloud the penalty that he and the rest involved had eluded for far too long! What an amazing job well done by the prosecution team!
Vinnie.. BLESS you for SPEAKING OUT FOR DAN MARKEL--- and SHINING the LIGHT on HOW EVIL the ADELSON'S ARE!... Wendi is SOOOOO GUILTY!..
The irony is the murdering family are now in Tallahassee, which they hated.
Lol
I LOVE the irony!
Poetic justice
BLESSINGS TO DAN’S MOTHER AND FAMILY !!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
How do people think they can get away with things like this! Mind-blowing
I feel so bad that the boys have to live with the name Adelson rather than their real last name of Markel that was robbed from them a year after the Adelsons murdered their father.
Vinnie….thank you for having Ruth Markel on the show tonight. I live only 45 minutes from where she lives in Ontario, Canada. She’s such a strong mama….I can’t begin to imagine what they have been through. Bless the Markel family, including Dan two boys. I pray that the Markels are able to re-establish a relationship with their grandsons. 🙏❤️🇨🇦
I hope the boys will be in the loving care of the Markel family very soon. I hope they transition well and from the US, we support you, supporting them.
She lives in Toronto.
She's the total opposite from Donna. A lovely, intelligent woman. I'm so happy for her finally getting justice. It's so painful it took too long.❤.
That is right Ruth, across the world we are watching and waiting for justice for your family.
JUSTICE WILL NEVER END FOR Dan untill everyone is convicted.. and put away
And the boys are with the Markel family.
Agreed.
I don’t understand why you’ll all think putting people in jail solves anything. He’s still dead. It’s all in your head.
Justice for Dan.
@@H_da_6.5it stop them from doing it again if they got away with murder. Beside if someone kill your family you want them to get punished
Ruth could be so vengeful right now, and rightly so, but she continues to present herself with grace and class.. Ruth I hope you can get custody of your grandchildren very soon! Much love ❤️🙏💔
The bump never gets old. Love watching it. Donna is shook 😮
I’m so sorry Ruth, for all your family has been through. The world waits for justice for Danny and that won’t be realized until Wendi is in jail. I hope your family has the relationship with your grandsons so they can learn all about their dad from those that know him best.🙏🏻❤🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
I can't believe Ruth has to have a visit with the boys that includes Wendi. That must be so incredibly difficult considering her likely involvement. God bless her and the kids.
But I believe Ruth can handle it. She’s strong and sensible and would never stoop to Wendi’s level.
@patriciafoster3347 you got that right! She continues to rise above for the kids...she's such a good person and a wonderful grandma. I'm sure she'll share all the wonderful things about their dad with them so they get the true picture of who he was and how much he loved them.
Hopefully the kids will find safety in Ruth
Wendi even changed the boys’ last names to Adelson ! 😡😡
I just keep saying as I watch this, "What were they all thinking????" How on earth did they think this was the best solution ad that they were going to get away it? Deriving your kids/grandkids/nephews of their father is so beyond cruel and messed up.
I can't even imagine what is going through their heads now. I bet each one is thinking how they wish they had never gone through with it now
Hatred. You seen so many murders happened because so much hate. They couldn't stand Dan in the same world with them. People killed because of hate consumed them
@@deebell8727I don't think that s what they thinking. They probably still happy that Dan s gone. They are thinking we shouldn't have hired those idiots. We should have done it ourselves and kept quiet.
They really thought they’d get away with it.
Obviously the Adelson family was not thinking properly. They proved they are hateful, not bright and involved in a murder of Dan.
I wish Ruth and Family many years of happiness with her grandsons as they have missed so much these last nine years.
My heart breaks for Ruth and if Wendi had ANY sort of remorse, she would have ensured the kids get to see their grandparents - it is bad enough that they had their father murdered but to then make sure they never got to see their grandparents and no doubt been fed a bunch of lies, its incredibly sad.
Wendi is rarely mentioned as the ring leader. No doubt in my mind, she knew and helped orchestrate this heinous murder for hire against her children's Father.
Nope, she just made sure to complain about him enough to the right people to get it done.
She knew she is the one who spread what they were planning wendy is next so they will all get what they dezerve
Wendi lit the fire with her bottomless princess nonsensical whining
I think Donna was the ring leader from day one, but I believe Wendi certainly knew what was going on. I wonder if she will ever have to pay for her part, though. She has seemed to be able to distance herself.
What a classy, articulate and beautiful lady! Praying for total justice for Dan. I pray God's blessing on your family.
Ruth Markel is such a wonderful woman and my heart and prayers go out to her! I really think this lady is such an inspiration for having patience as justice takes time. I feel sometimes LE is rushed into charging the wrong person because of pressure. I will definitely respond by video as the Prosecution did phenomenal work!
I first learned about this case when it aired on Dateline some years ago. I’ve followed it ever since, and I’m so happy for the Markel’s that they’re finally getting justice for their son’s murder. My heart goes out the Markels and their grandchildren. Justice for Dan!
I have so much respect for you Ruth ❤
NO1 would ever be able to convince me that Wendy knew NOTHING of the Murder Plot beforehand!!
When I compare her demeanor on the stand versus her demeanor during the interrogation I think she as more honest during the interrogation. I think her family kept her sheltered from the plot to avoid her culpability.
@@abebuckingham8198so why did she drive by the murder scene????
Mrs. Markel is a warrior goddess and strong mother! God bless the Markel family. Rest in Peace Dan Markel.
My heart go’s out to Dan’s mom and family!! I been watching this case for almost 10 year’s and I pray the Justus will keep coming!!! 🙏🏼♥️
Ms. Ruth is a nice lady. After everything she has been through and is still going through, she is trying to help other families that find themselves in a similar situation by writing her book. Blessings and prayers Ms. Ruth.
A marvellous lady and her dignity and kindness are amazing
“It was a celebration that I was able to leave my house and eat a meal”
The LIES!!!!
Let us all pray that Wendi Addison gets arrested, tried and concocted of perjury for all 3 and possibly 4 (Donna) trials! So four STACKS of perjury counts! Dear Lord, may justice prevail!
This story is so sad.😢Prayers to the Markel family ❤
How do these people think they can get away this!?!? 😅
They probably got away with plenty over the years.
🎯💯🎯
Look at how long they got away with it already!
@@Enoughalready20237
Better late (very late, LOL), than never!!! 🎉🤦🏻♀️🎉
The Adelsons were worth many millions!! They had the dental practice and made millions but also own a good bit of real estate in Miami. I think they thought they would never get caught but I’m so glad they did!! Just infuriating what they did to Dan!! 😡😡. He attended Harvard then Cambridge college in England for his master’s degree and back to Harvard for his law degree. An absolutely brilliant professor at Florida State University Law School.
It is astonishing to me that a family is willing to gang up on a loving parent after a divorce to the point of murder. But happens. No thought of the kids. Just the adults and the control. Horrifying.
I so very feel for Ruth. Such a terrible loss. It has to be infuriating to be in the court room.
She changed her account with each trial
1st trial -denied turning onto Trescott
2nd trial says she WAS on Trescott and 4 houses from crime scene
3rd trial- back to her first account of not turning onto Trescott
Yes she lied.
PS with Det Isom hours after the murder-she admitted she was on Trescott.
So twice she was on Trescott, twice she wasn’t on Trescott.
Which is it Wendi?
Absolutely
I had no idea how long Trescott was until seeing the video with Judy and Fanci. It's 0.9 miles from Centerville to Dan's house. It's not like turning onto Trescott and driving 100 yards until the road block. And Charlie had the gall to testify that Wendi never even turned on Trescott.
@@mcnugs7648 I now understand why Georgia did not really call her on it at the 2nd trial. She was waiting for the 3rd so she can really nail her on perjury. Yes it is long, and the entrance to Trescott from Centerville is a mile away from the house.
Did she really think she could get away with lying once again at Charlies trial?
She should have just stayed with the truth from the second trial.
She would be in much better shape legally. Now shes done.
@@mcnugs7648 yes hopefully they have more on her. We don’t know about the Whatsapp.
I have watched her testimony from the 3 trials and her interview with Isom so many times and every time I watch her with Isom, I find something else.
Such as her voice mails with Dan on the day of the murder. And the issues with him wanting to take the kids to the pool being a distraction from her not returning his calls about the kids school (Bc she knew the boy would never be attending the school)etc etc. I can write and essay.
Here supposed laryngitis that week is a big lie.
The state had enough on the whole family to arrest them all in 2016 but politics got in the way.
An affluent family with political connections to judges.
So I’m guessing Georgia will reel them in one at a time..just sad they had those boys for all these years . And they were able to brainwash the boys. I am praying for the boys. It has to be horrible to lose a dad and be told lies about it.
@@mcnugs7648 they should have tried them all in 2016 but WA’s godfather Weinstein was good friends with Willie Meggs the state prosecutor at the time
This is a political case . And that’s why there’s been no Justice for the Markels for almost a decade
Dear Mrs. Markel, I sincerely hope you find peace, and that justice is served for the perpetrators of this crime.
Ruth great book !! Well written
His poor parents and children. It's breaks my heart.
God bless you Ruth!! ❤
My condolences to Ruth and her family on the senseless murder of your son.
Wishing all the very best for Ruth and her family.
Ruth, Lady Justice will prevail!
