- Dan Markel's ex-wife Wendi Adelson, whose family is suspected of being behind the law professor’s murder, started her testimony in the retrial of Katherine Magbauna. She was asked, “Was one of the things you said while you sat for six hours completely traumatized that you wanted the culpable parties held accountable unless it was your family?”
Adelson’s response ended Cappleman’s line of questioning. Hear what she said and follow along with the trial. We're covering all the developments in our daily live updates: www.tallahassee.com/story/new... - Розваги
Look, I’m a mom. If I encountered a roadblock on the street where my children stayed with my ex husband I would be alarmed and call to check on them. ESPECIALLY after realizing he had called me but I’d ignored his call. I’d be panicked. Its obvious why Georgia mentioned this. It’s also why she mentioned “Bulliet” bourbon journey and confirming the hit.
I would go to the house as anyone else would as well.
@@tabbylynn4130 Damn right. I would be freaking out for my kids AND my ex’s safety. Yet I believe Georgia brings it up for a more significant reason. Georgia believes Wendi is the one who confirmed the hit was complete. Pbbly Charlie via WhatsApp. That’s why Katie said “I know” when Sigfredo called to tell her it was done.
@@UA-camrepliesexactly how Katie knew
Right
If I see a fire truck or ambulance I immediately call my husband and make sure he’s ok.
I hope to see her in her trial one day. We can just wish and hope.
l think they will go one by one; her trial will be after her mother is convicted.
Hugh respect to the Prosecution...
She’s such a liar!! In this line of questioning she says the $1M was supposed to be split 3 ways between her mom, dad, and Charlie. And, she couldn’t recall the amount without being shown a piece of evidence. In the most recent trial of her brother, she acknowledges there was a bribe of $1M to pay for Dan’s travel expenses, split 3 ways between her parents, Charlie, and herself. If she’s willing to lie about that because it might look bad, imagine what else she’s lying about!!
Yesterday, Palm Beach State Attorney Dave Aronburg said in an STS event that he believes Wendi should be indicted.
And Donna’s!
How is this lady not in prison
Because ur justice system is a joke my friend
They have one chance. They need to find direct evidence. Stop hurrying the detectives they know what the hell they’re doing.
Because she is rich and Jewish
Privilege
Because she is extremely smart
Wendi has no need to "refresh" her memory. This is all an act.
💯correct
Wendi, this is a murder trial not Summer’s Eve commercial
Absolutely. Narcissists remember every injury or slight.
“I always delete my messages” says no woman ever.
😁
😅😅😅😅😅 I know right
😂😂😂😂
Exactly
I have to admit that I am a woman and am guilty of always deleting my emails and messages as soon as I send/receive them. I only retain messages with info I absolutely need. It is an OCD habit that I have always had.
She makes me sick to my stomach! Not only did she have her husband alive, she erased his name from their kids and not even allow his parents visitation with them. She sought to totally have Dan out of his kids lives. All of Adelson family are evil!
I absolutely agree 💯👍!!!!
So true! Denying the grandparents visits says it all to me, like you said, Evil.
He must have been some kind of abusive. This crap wouldn't started the start with right!!! Don't mess with a female lion with her Cubs!!!
@@sofiamullins746 there has been no evidence of abuse. Saying it had to be the man’s fault is simply stupid. Just read about a woman who killed her child. Not all women are good mothers, some are extremely abusive.
Hey cindy . U remember Jeff lacasse said,; in interview with police that dan mercul was a pr---ck and lost his job in Miami and that's the reason they moved to Tallahassee, sorry he said a--hole, nevertheless this case looks highly circumstantial, other than Charlie, but he had a bunch of lowlifes that testified against him. Who knows this might be another oj and Casey Anthony type of case. Please reply love your imput
Absolutely insane how her answers to the SAME questions are completely DIFFERENT in the retrial.
Thank I said the same how many trail 4 I think all different in one she Dan wasn’t abusive in another I call him jibber because I was scared of it makes no sense when in all he’s email he’s swore spoke perfectly fine don’t sound as she states he but her mom is another a bully narcissist evil etc she said was it them both
Well, she didn’t remember and then she “had her memory refreshed”. 🤣🤣🤣
Why all of the swirling and squirming in that chair during the side-bar Wendi? You are innocent, right.
Are@@iveliserojas612
@@iveliserojas612 What?
I am not a big time smart lawyer who passed the bar and I can remember where I lived 20 years ago. I can even remember my address from when I was a child. You mean to tell me she doesn’t know her old neighborhood? It’s so weird the things she lies about. I don’t understand because she’s “smart” but she makes so many dumb decisions in the way she testifies. This whole case is just mind blowing.
I noticed that too. Thought the same thing. She truly can’t read the room.
Me to lol I rember when I was 4 where I lived and street she a liar she remember a lot but not other if u back to all the other case u see different story’s it only one two years she lied about her mom she lied that hated Dan and she stated mom baked Dan banana pie r u really that Dum lol then she she Dan asked mom to babysit are u kidding
@@sashmo8it kill’s me I don’t rember it been years hello u the one who did the divorce papers how ur gona not remember what u said anit you lawyer no wonder when Dan was hired and they didn’t want her it tell u she a bad as a lawyer
Agreed, a pathological liar lies when it is beneficial. There is an underlying psychology to the hardware inside that head of hers. She admitted to Jeffrey L. That she lies whenever it suits her.
Yeah… she doesn’t even know what contempt means… come on!
It's amazing how uncomfortable she gets when the prosecutor pauses her questions.
An supet horrible, smug accomlice to murrder, deseres raped or murderedbim prisom
I haven't been following the case very closely but I totally agree that this attorney is getting under her skin. I'm comparing this with how confident she acted being cross-examined by another attorney.
@@Becki545Well in all fairness, that other attorney was terrible.
The pause is a deliberate interrogation technique.
😊 also, Dan's mother is sitting a couple of rows behind where Georgia is standing, so Wendy has a straight line view of Dan's mother. I love it.
I love the pace of this attorney, she is slowly lighting a fire under Wendy’s ass
The way she matches Wendi’s condescending passive aggressiveness is chefs kiss
Lol😮 Georgia gets better with each trial.
So the voice of experience is seeing a lot of fizzle and barely a spark
@@vickiecampbell3638 Still, she let too much slide.
I wonder how much vicodin she took before this interview. Contacts can hide dilation in the eyes. I hope she goes down. It's so obvious she was the main catalyst
this is what someone who got away with murder looks like
Also the look of someone who uses an entire ethnic aisle’s worth of hair straightener and still can’t run a comb through that mess
Well, not yet. She hasn't gotten away with it just yet.
@@SoCalDreaming87yes Theirs more to go and perhaps it ll be after the boys turn 18?
@@markieffmorris9263I don't think she d survive in the prison system it can't be easy . I wonder how Katie must be finding it hard being away from her kids and will be if wendi had to be away from hers?
@@eliza-uh1sk Yeah, maybe. I see they estimate that after Donna's trial, they will arrest Wendi. We shall see. As long as she goes to prison, I am happy.
She reveals exactly who she is through her sneering condescension. She wanted family support for her kids from her mother father and brother ... but it was okay to separate these very young boys from their dad? A bond between a father and his kids is sacred. This is so monstrous.
I think she manipulated her brother into planning it and I think she intentionally told the police about her brother saying a "TV was cheaper than a hitman" so if need be she could point the cops in his direction. This woman is a user and a manipulator and planned the whole thing
@@cmw8216 Yeah. She's a manipulator of the worst kind. I think the TV statement was said as almost a reverse psychology type of things with the cops. She knew it would seem damning if they heard about it from someone else, so Wendi says it in interrogation to get it over with and seem overly honest and trustworthy. She was hoping so much that her family would get a passing glance for Wendi's cooperation at the police station, and that this would make the local news and go cold. Little did she know....
@@ladycymbeline I don't think Wendy cares about anyone but Wendi. She doesn't care if her mom and brother go down for it. As long as she doesnt
@@ladycymbelinethat's exactly what I think. She just went ahead and got that statement out of the way. And also she wanted to be like see? I'm telling you every single thing I know
Excellent point!
My grandfather was a wise man. He use to say you can't hire an amateur to do the job of a professional. Charlie pays $100,000 to these 2 hoodlums through a woman who's not too bright herself in the category of crime. On the other hand the Adelson family offers $1 million dollars to Dan Markel to let his kids relocate to Miami. Now that right there should tell the you the state of Adelson mentality. The killer rents a car in his name with a bridge transponder to go commit a murder. 🤦! The killer takes his cell phone to commit The murder while posting pics on Instagram 🤷♂️. The two killers and Katie meet for the money drop in front of Jessica Rodriguez the wife of Rivera. 🐒. Wendi drives by the murder scene and busts a u turn to take off 🤦♂️. Katie makes bank deposits she's never made before the murder 🤷♂️. Charlie staples his money and let's more than 1 person know this 🤦. Donna Adelson gets bumped by a federal agent thinking he was a street guy and never called the police 🤷♂️. Donna then calls Charlie about the letter and Charlie calls Katherine which was the federal agents wanted 💪. It's game over for these people.
These Adelson‘s aren’t half as smart as they think they are. Charlie says it must be an undercover cop who gives a note to his mother, yet he immediately starts calling people and gives himself away . And then he agrees to meet in a restaurant when he knows his phone calls are being surveilled and gives himself away in that recording. These are the best and the brightest ? 😂
I certainly hope so. It’s about time. These people are just amoral. In retrospect, I wonder if they think it was worth it.
And don't forget....one of the hitmen (I think it was Sigfredo) blew a hole in the floor of the rental car with the gun. Also, when Sigfredo called Katie to tell her the deed was done, Katie said she knew. The only way she could have known before Sigfredo told her was directly or indirectly from Wendi, who drove by the crime scene to verify the hit had taken place.
Never ever talk on a phone !
Didn’t you watch GoodFellas ?
😂😂😂 Like an episode of the Three Stooges. Except it’s not funny.
Note how she is wide-eyed, partially opened mouth and drooping of face - trying hard to give that practiced look of innocence. Such intended manipulation for the jury; and it insults me to think that any observant person would buy such a well-practiced (labored) attempted look of innocence. Go away Jodi Arias!
Absolutely she is, we can all see it too!😅
Her mannerisms are SO MUCH like Jodi arias! Dangerous evil people.
Yes, it's scary 😬😂
Yes. Im so glad people can see right through it.
This body language shit is cousins to phrenology-bogus pseudoscience. Hard facts & evidence condemned this woman.
The way she bats her eyelashes bothers me so much! She does that to the jury. I’m pretty and innocent. BS lady.
Also opened her mouth to resemble an innocent child
She doesn’t deserve to call him Danny. Why is she surprised when the Prosecutor refers to him as Dr? He was a Professor he had a Doctoral degree. Her whole family belong in jail.
Anything to disparage him 😔
Calls him Danny to sound so sweet 🤮
To call him names I hate when she she called that name because she was scared of him either u was or you in different courts cases she she say she wasn’t scared he didn’t abuse her etc but then other she say I put that because how he treated lady ur mom and you was the bully’s
Lawyers know and often instruct their clients to refer to the victims in the most tender terms possible. They are instructed to use their nicknames or other terms of endearment. Wendi, as a lawyer, knows this. Georgia refers to Dan Markel as Dr. so as a to remind the jury what a loss he was to the community.
@@tamararutland-mills9530 It reminds of me Alec Murdaugh referring his son Paul as "Paw Paw" 🙄
The fact Wendi laughs and smiles on almost every question is so telling. I think she was the mastermind of it all to get a Hitman. Her “family” simply did what she had requested . She’s pure evil. She’s listening to the sidebar which shows her level of involvement in her legal cases. She’s not some uneducated bystander.
Agree! She thinks she's the smartest person in the room.
Duping Delight at its finest
Exactly Right!!!!
@@rrt401 There is evidence she could be a malignant narcissist. Her mother’s enthusiastic encouragement to treat Dan Markel badly is very telling of Wendi’s depraved moral development.
She's a genius. And absolutely kills this testimony. I hope she gets away with it. She's a boss. And absolutely smoken. If she had only fans.. Shed absolutly murder it!
May Dan’s memory be a blessing. May his family accept our condolences.
❤
She can remember a 4 hr service window to fix her TV but can't remember why she text her brother "That's sweet". Who does this fool think she's conning?
I’m confused how she claims to not be aware or know of some things. She has had years to read and reread all of this. She absolutely knows. As she has legal background and she knows what to say and not say. Bottom line, she is the core reason an innocent man was murdered.
She is lying.
She just doesn’t have “a legal background,” she is an attorney.
@@2034916And she is very easy to dislike.
@@JCP58 Primarily because she’s trying too hard to come across as being so sweet and as the main victim. In spite of the fact that her poor husband was the true victim of her and her evil family! And her nonstop complaints claiming her husband was treating her so badly, and he can’t defend himself, and his family sitting there while she’s dispersing him continuously, after they murdered him! So it’s very easy not to like her!
But horrors! her husband wanted a kosher diet. he loved his boys, but diets...
Wendi is lying through her teeth.
If you asked Wendi - “Do you eat bread?” She would reply- “Well, define ‘eat’.
🙄 Does it have to be Kosher cuz that's too hard
“If you mean, do I ingest bread, then yes”. Both her and Charlie do that weird rephrasing, before answering. I think it’s sassy/pouty/disrespectful/l’m better than you behavior.
😂😂😂😂
@@SummerLuvr7spot on
"Only banana bread"😅
She makes my stomach turn everytime she calls Dan, Danny!
She intentionally calls him by his nickname, just to get under his parents skin.
Why am I so uncomfortable watching her on the stand? Is it because she is smiling as she is speaking? She makes me feel so uneasy.
She's cute though
Because she's SMARMY
It’s most likely because you’re empathetic and you can feel her anxiety as she lies on the stand. I feel the same way.
Wendi claims she changed her kids last name from Markel to Adleson because their names were exposed on national t.v. Did she really think the last name Adleson would be lower profile???
Exactly! And the Adelson name is associated with murder, drugs, & murder- for- hire. You'd think she would've changed their name back to Markel straight away.
Her excuse makes no absolute sense whatsoever. She wanted them to forget about their paternal roots.
@@bokani79 absolutely
Look at it this way, the brother and mother have already lost the kids. Wendi will also lose them, it may not be in the next few years BUT something will happen in the future. Life has a ways of balancing things. The kids will one day be aware of all these comments and they will watch these videos and form opinions. The Adleson family is ruined. They have no legacy. All for what…
Great point
What an amazing prosecutor. Really impressive
I love the ending!!
But sure
But sure?! Haha
But sure what?
That prosecutor is not so great. Wendi,so far, has kicked all of their butts!!, including the 3 defendants attorneys that came after her like a pack of wolves. I don't know if she's guilty or not. I know that we all have our suspicions. You cannot convict someone fairly on suspicion alone. I want to to see some real evidence etc...I don't mean no circumstantial crap. I'm talking real convincing evidence beyond a reasonable doubt!,! Theirs one thing I think we all can agree on, or should agree on, she's a hell of a lawyer. I know if I was in big trouble I'd like to have her! You know she has to be very skilled, she's been on the stand answering questions the whole time; if that was one of us our lawyers wouldn't have us up there on that stand. I'll promise you.
@@sofiamullins746 I agree guilty or not that woman can't be broken
@@sofiamullins746 , Yeah , I agree the prosecutor , thinks she is hot shit ! She tried to get over , with a piece that she knew wasn’t entered in as evidence and the other lawyer , called her out ! Love that one . Wendi , however aided and abetted this with her brother and her mother !
You don't know shit from shinola
I cannot believe how horrible the Adelson family is. Kudos to Ms. Cappleman and to everyone else who has supported the Markel family throughout this nightmare. Ruth, Danny’s mom, has written a book called, “The Unveiling” if you have any interest in this case it’s definitely worth a read.
Is there an audio version?
I just got it and I cried for that mother. What a wonderful mother and grandmother she is. And it’s a brilliant book. I’m on 5th chapter.
She's half a breath away from a full on panic attack
I wonder is she’s on medication to calm her nerves. She smiles and pretends she’s okay, but I am sure she is not okay.
Yes, you can tell by her breathing.
@@sunwriter3863 Yes -she is on some kind of meds --to calm herself. She is pure evil- like the rest of her family.
Deer in headlights
@@sunwriter3863. Xanax. I take it for anxiety. Calming drug.
How could she NOT remember the bribe amount? Like it was an odd amount that couldn’t be remembered, such as $678,323. It was 1 million dollars !!!
👌🏻
Especially because she said her parents aren't millionaires 🤔
She has that classic thinly-veiled smirk that many along the narcissistic to psychopathic spectrum often have. Taking an absolute delight in knowing that she knows that you know and her both know what she did but that you can't ever prove it...so in her mind, she "wins". Everything boils down to winning.
Corporate America is so full of those types of women. For whatever reason, I seem to keep running across them.
Yes!!!!
cold blooded! those children will grow up one and will have questions. KARMA
God judges in the end.
@@farmcat3198 Corporations are perfect for narcissists. If you have no conscience or empathy and will do whatever it takes to get ahead you can move up the ladder and have more power and make more money.
She went to law school school. She very well knew what use/derivative immunity meant. It’s really difficult to watch this woman’s testimony when you’ve been following this case for years. She was the wife, she benefited financially, she got to move with the kids to her precious Miami. IMO she’s not telling all truth on the stand.
#JUSTICEFORDAN
It really is difficult to watch. I'm comparing different answers to same questions in 3 different trials
She didn’t even know what a Ferrari looked like? Come on
@Adventurando "i dunno.....i got kids.....i have no idea what a Ferrari is, i drive a van" 😂
@@Charlesbjtown unreal right?
She found a good Patsy/boyfriend to take the blame but luckily he had a change of plans giving him an alibi. Her disregard for people shows that she is an evil social path.
He’s so lucky
Indeed
Sociopath*
What was his change of plans?
@@davidschmidt7761that boy is so damn lucky 😅
Wow she is soooo nervous!!! I can literally see her trying to breathe calmly but it’s not working.
She doesn't look well. She's very pale and, yes, nervous. She wavered when Georgia asked her if she understood that the immunity deal doesn't preclude her from future prosecution. I'm sure the idea of being indicted in the future unsettled her, especially since Charlie's been indicted.
@@polkadots716 time stamp?
@@pennymcguire7052 2:05
Hopefully she and her parents are living in that state all the time, looking over their shoulders, because that’s probably the only justice that will come for the 3 of them. I hope they get arrested eventually but I doubt it
Yes she looks messy and nervous
It seems like Wendy thinks she has full immunity and can never be charged on anything based off this case. She seemed shook when the prosecutor explained "you can still be prosecuted, even though what you say here today can't be used against you".
I know..& I loved every second of it!!! 😂👌🏼💯
Just for laughs, I wish they would have called her out on wearing that same dress from 2 years ago when she was on the stand 🤣🤣
Yep. She 💯 thought she couldn’t be prosecuted at all in the future
A horrible creature
@@boobookitty1441 no like seriously, the EXACT same everything. Maybe she thinks that’s her “lucky outfit” in her sick mind? I would be so thrilled if one day, soon, ASAP, the news says that Wendi has been arrested! They got her brother, so 1 down and 3 more to go because her parents are trash and know everything as well!
Ughhhhhh this woman makes me feel sick, so smug
Wendi's smile appears strange to me and she minimizes her resentment for her ex husband. We all know she wanted him gone!
Calling him Danny is total Manipuris the audience but i a I r buying it. Danny is a term of endearment. I bet she hasn’t called him that since they were married three or four years. He is Jibbers to her and she hates him.
@@MBB9394 you think they were married 3 or 4 years ago? He was murdered in 2014 & they were divorced 2 years before that, & got married in 2006.
I thought it was also interesting when Georgia referred to Dan as Dr. Markel and Wendi could, just not allow/process that! He, like her, is a Juris Doctorate. So it’s okay for her to use Danny, but no one can make Dan sound even more professional? Manipulative Wendi!
@@RaoulThomas007 I think Wendi was very jealous of Dan. She is controlling like her mother. They are a family of sociopaths, with the exception of Robert and possibly Harvey.
@@polkadots716 I agree. How could anyone think it would be better for their two children to not have a father. Why was sole custody so important to Donna, Wendi and Charlie. Sociopath’s seek power and control, so this became their plan. Changing the last names of the children is so cruel, to Dan’s family and ultimately the children, as they grow up. It just never stops! She even receives $4,800 in survivor benefits from Social Security thanks to Dan’s untimely death.
This is the performance her mother encouraged her to master.
At any rate SEEMS SO
And thats the truth of it
Well, I bet Donna had hoped for a better performance than this.
Wendi has and is to date been babied by her parents incl her brother. I firmly believe her entire family deserves prison. Dan's children will not stay young forever and eventually find what this family did to Dan.
,,,if they DON'T KNOW ALREADY, KIDS ARE CLEVER,@@ethelmallett2811
By far my favorite moment is when Wendi is asked if after seeing the road block on her ex husbands street if she called the daycare, or if she called Danny. A “damn-I forgot to think of that” moment comes across her face and her voice gets very soft. It never occurred to her that she should’ve done that.
The worse of the case. How can you Not wonder other than it might had been a tree fell???
She looks even better than Amber
That's sociopathic...
To me, that’s the most damning piece of evidence against her.
what minute?
It is really bothersome the way
she calls her dead husband
Danny as though she had
some feeling for him. She
and her family had the poor
man violently killed by thugs.
At least she didnt call him Mr Bear
@@FleagleSangria or " My Boo"
And she cant remenber a million dollars just trying to piss off prosecutor evil whence
I hate this too. She makes it seem like they were never on bad terms.
She’s using that as an endearing term purposely & strtegically.
Anyone who kills because of their children don’t give a crap about them. It’s all about power, control and getting revenge on the other parent, NOT the child’s welfare. If they cared they would consider what impact losing a parent would have and the bigger impact of possibly being caught, therefore losing BOTH parents would have. Wendi controlled everyone in her family and put all this in motion. No way would they have killed him if she didn’t want it done.
🎯
Yes. Totally, 100% correct.
Exactly! Dan would still be alive if he had never have met Wendi Adelson.
I agree..the boys were never a consideration!
RIP Dan may justice be finally served!!!
He was a religious zealot. good riddance.
What I find truly astonishing is this has literally plagued their lives since it happened (2014). Did they honestly think they would just be able to go on with their lives in perfect peace? I have no doubt they have spent every day since it happened looking over their shoulders, scheming and plotting. What a way to live, could’ve just come to an amicable agreement but Wendi did not want to relocate. Selfish hussy
@CMJames: You’ve got it backward, Wendi DID want to relocate but it was denied by the divorce court because it would have meant taking the children to Miami area away from their dad in Tallahassee and the judge wouldn’t permit it.
That's why her immunity pisses me off so bad.
No one will ever convince me that Dan isn’t dead Becuz of Miss Wendy !!!
@@chasityleman7932: Just curious, do you think the killing was random or do you have someone in mind who you think wanted Dan dead?

Yes. She gave a detailed account of where she lived but can't recall other things.
Actually her memory was quite sharp. She corrected many mistakes her questioner asked, with regard to places, names, people, dates, etc. What she didn't do is answer emotionally charged questions formed with inflammatory language without asking for clarifications.
At 42:09 when Wendy is asked the question “did your brother use drugs” she stops for a bit and you can hear someone tell her “tell the truth” and instantly says “yes”
That was weird.

Right. How on earth does she think it benefits her to paint him as a bad guy? If she had nothing to do with the murder, why be so pointed in her criticisms? She and her family look more guilty every time she complains about him.

She knows more than she is giving.
She knows everything, and plotted with her family to have Dan Markel killed
Of course she is
That's my take. Can't quite read her. But she definitely knows more than she's telling.
Would you tell everything? I like how she is playing the “ I can’t recall” card.
She lying she got all he’s bank accounts she took all he’s beifits
I can’t imagine what her kids are going to think when they realize that their uncle, and more than likely grandma, had their father murdered.
I agree and I hope they are able to get the emotional support they will need from the Markel's side of the family. 😢 Such a heartbreaking 💔 situation: changes their entire lives and they were so little (3 and 5 years old).
And thanks to the internet the boys will watch the videos on yt
Wendi instigated it which drove her mother n brother to plan the murder. Sick n sad!
....and their grandfather....and their mother
Devastating
So one of her jobs as an attorney was to represent victims of human trafficking, yet Wendi knew her brother Charlie openly traveled to Asian countries for sex with underage girls. And yet I suspect Wendi and the Adelsons would see anything paradoxical about this.
She sure does close her eyes a lot when answering questions that challenge her innocence. It is not proof of her lying, but it is an indicator.
That and the rapid blinking
For someone who is a lawyer Wendi seems to have a bad memory about her divorce settlement and conveniently has very little recollection about events involving the death of her ex husband. She is so guilty!
Yes. But she would like to talk on and on about how she was victimized by everyone.
Soooo guilty
She's playing legal games with words.
She also had to really think when she met Dan
What kind of mothers, she and her mom, could do this to their children?! She’ll be punished most by her sons wanting nothing to do with her when they understand what selfish manipulators they both are. Wendi and her mother are terrible people and mothers
She’s wearing the same outfit she wore in the trial 2 years ago , which is just strange.
She’s perfected this innocent look while spewing venom about the father of her children.
Hopefully the boys aren't poisoned against the Markel's. They've had spent plenty of time with those evil people to be. Especially since it was their formative years.
Maybe as they see the family get arrested for the murder of their father they will wake up if so.
@@justanothersmith6012 i noticed that immediately.
I'm thinking she did it to downplay the wealth of the family.
Whenever the prosecutor asks about the parents or Charlie's wealth or income she plays dumb.
Poor Wendy can't afford a new suit for trial. Let's hope noone notices.
The entire world noticed.
@@ajordan1976
That’s so true!
I hope it holds up for her brother’s trial , then her mother’s , and finally , her own trial. 😏
@@ajordan1976 lmao 😅😂🤣😆😅😂🤣
A parent who tries to keep the child away from mother or father is a bad parent unless the child's welfare is in jeopardy.
Usually these parents instrumentalize their own offspring to get back at their spouses. In a lot of cases it's all about control and revenge, and has nothing to do with the children's needs and desires.
Shame on these parents.
Donna did all of this
@tabbylynn4130 no she didn't. Wendy did. You don't change the last name of their murdered father , it's utterly says volumes about wendi and how she feels about the father of his boys. Her bs excuse about protecting them by changing it to hher last name makes no sen. Be more believe able if she changed their last name to smith or green. Cmon. She thinks shes fooling ppl!!@ another case of a m arc thinking shes smarter than everyone else ..she knows the law and she's using it to her advantage to skirt prosecution.. won't work tho she'll join her brother and mother soon
If anything donna is the least guilty of them all.. and donna is guilty as hell
Such measured and expert questioning by the prosecutor, stopping at the right moments letting Wendi's answers just sit with the jury - from the timing of the TV repair to the ages of the children when their Dad was taken from them. Absolute classic finish- "But sure...", " "But sure?" "But sure what?"...."No further questions"!
SHE WORE THE SAME OUTFIT WHEN SHE TESTIED IN THE FIRST TRIAL.
I spotted that too!!! As her ex boyfriend said, Wendi likes to play mind games. Wendi should thank her lucky stars she is not in jail…..YET. Vile, unconscionable woman
Lol I CAME HERE FOR THIS COMMENT AND IT TOOK LESS THAN THREE SECONDS TO FIND IT 😂
I noticed that! I thought I was going crazy.
She still has the same big eyed despondent look.
It probably smells by now
@@VeronicaSchneider305: It’s her lucky outfit - the one she gets lucky in, lol. She can’t ever wash it.
This is what happens when a spoiled brat complains to her enabling family. She planted the seed and her family, who has always taken care of her, did the rest. She knows exactly what happened and is fine with it because she got her way.
Her husband comes across much more as a spoiled brat.
@@annashlimovichShe does not have a husband.
She did have it, officially she is a widow.@@tamararutland-mills9530
The Prosecuting Attorney has her number. She doesn't allow her to talk on about herself or portray herself in a victim light. She keeps her on track and makes her answer the question.
Her smugg face just irritates me to no end.. it is amazing anyone stayed with her as long as Dan did
Wendi will be seen as a liar simply because she’s conceding to absolutely no wrong doing in the divorce/custody battle. There are no angels in a custody battle. It’s highly contentious, emotional and a the worst experience of the divorce process because your children are involved.
She is seen as a liar because she
is lying to cover herself for the
horrific murder of her husband.
She didn’t care how much he
suffered at the hands of gang
members.
It's so strange to me that she can't remember specifics about her divorce but she remembered to wear the exact same outfit while testifying.
Absolutely she wore the exact same outfit by the looks of it.
Maybe she forgot she’d already worn it. 😀😀😀😃😃😂😂😂😂😂😂
Absolutely! I had just commented. You noticed weeks ago. She has no clue how calculating that is. She’s swears no one will pick up on that. I don’t believe it was coincidental.
Lmao I noticed this also bc when I first started watching it I was like wait a min…am I watching the one from two years ago?!?🤔🤣🤣🤣 then I noticed it was the new trial and it’s just her wearing the same outfit from two years ago 🤣🤣
She’s trying to play that memory loss act to the full extent huh!! 🤦♀️😂😂
Is it the exact same. I thought I was bugging. Why would she wear the same outfit? Not sure what to make of that.
I love the way the prosecutor stops her from going off on the crazy tangent stories like she did in the first trial....also her having on the same dress as the first trial just shows how deceptive an evil she is, for sure her evil mother said it was a good plan. This whole family needs to be put in jail, No “TV or Tablets etc” 🤥🤫👨⚖️
is this one big fake/act?
Having the dress?..
Amen 🎉
@@yips4914 She won an Oscar for best actress.
@@kristineelizabeth1277it's actually very interesting. She probably wore the same outfit so that if people looked her up they wouldn't think that she testified twice
If you’re Charlie Adelson, do you put a plan in motion to have your sister’s ex-husband murdered without first getting her permission? What if you did it and she was so morally horrified that she then turned you into the police? No, you’d first want to make sure the plan met with her approval. Wendi knew. But of course the plan didn’t involve Charlie getting nabbed and probably being sent to prison. 😁 And one day the kids will learn all the details of this case. That’ll be an interesting day. Really, the Adelsons have gotten away with nothing.
I agree and if they turn out to be as intelligent as their Dad the table will turn on this woman.
That is exactly what I was thinking. Charli being arrogant would want to be the person who claims that he got rid of the problem. It is most likely that Charli would have told Wendy and the rest of the family his plan.
The hit came from mom
Totally agree. He would have never done it without her say so
@@FrankLucas3 it came from Donna!!! Wendi knew it may happen but she had nothing to do with it …… Donna was the mastermind behind it all and when Dan tried to take all rights away from Donna that put the nail in the coffin. Donna runs that whole family!!
"I always delete my messages." Ok.
She looks nervous this time, and not nearly as cocky. With Charlie awaiting trial and the new enhanced recording of Magnanua and Charlie, she has a lot more to worry about. Love to see her squirm.
Lots more Botox since the last trial.
Definitely. But still smug and cocky. Very unlikeable person.
I noticed a definite change in her confidence and cockiness
She still cocky and heartless, also thinks she is smarter then everyone.
@@JH-cf9nn That’s good! It will make her downfall that much sweeter. Especially her comment in her first testimony “the police will never arrest me” with a laugh 🤮 I hope she eats those words.
@@sidda7085 Very true! I will definitely enjoy it more after her smirks and cocky attitude. She won’t get any special treatment in prison for sure, it would be a rude awakening for her. Praying that it happens and happens soon.
51:40- She subtly shakes her head yes in response to whether it was a dinner to celebrate her ex- husband's murder. This is a psychological or impulse response when someone is lying. She's articulating the words "Absolutely not" while nodding her head yes. She's more than likely lying when this happens.
Yes! Katie did this numerous times on her cross too
Yasss!!! And she drives me insane with that slow blinking and bobble head up there mouth breathing all over the stand 🤦♀️😂 she tries so hard to appear as an innocent victim in all this but it’s so obvious that she set this all in motion! And the proof is that she immediately left town 2 days after Dan is killed. Using the excuse that she didn’t feel safe 🙄 as if someone would kill her and the kids next? Like wouldn’t that be backwards? If someone hated Dan so much that they wanted to get back at him by killing her or the kids then wouldn’t they have done that before killing Dan? She didn’t think this thru good enuf! Bc it’s obvious that Dan was killed so that she could relocate!
@@ellafacebooktruecrimecases3644
I notice that as well with Katherine. When she was asked directly if she had involvement. She said no. But her head gestures yes.
And all but exceptions of other suspicious answers she doesn’t do that
Also, she (Wendi) does do this some on topics that are I believe to be true. Like an easy answer one.
But she eye blocks.
The Depp case. Watching behavioral arts has helped paying attention to these things.
omg you're right, what a Dr. Phil 101 lesson.
She shakes her head yes and says “absolutely not”.
She said she works with victims of trafficking and immigrants but her and her family paid three Latinx people money to commit murder and throw their lives away and end up in prison for life, which will cause their families and children to suffer immeasurably. But yeah she can keep tooting her own horn about how much she helps people.
Do you think we are stupid? no one smiles like that and make a happy face during court unless they are acting .
She tries to act like she's one of the trial attorneys, instead of a witness named in a conspiracy who happens to be an attorney. That ego will be her downfall.
I'd be happy too, if I'd beaten a murder rap!
@@mikesgoodmann9349
Hopefully justice will be served for the 4 named Adelson co- conspirators.
She changed her boys last names to Adelson and she also changed the middle name of one of her sons because it paid homage to Dans grandfather. How sick like Dan never existed
And she lied on stand about why and when she changed the names.
@@letitsnow8518 didn’t she change their names immediately after his death?
I don’t pretend to know all the details of this sad state of affairs all I can say is that the pursuit and attainment of material wealth in this world can lead to
bad things. I haven’t a clue if Wendi is guilty or not. I hope she is not for the sake of her children
She's vile. Then said some bs excuse as to why she did it. Lol then she changes it to the next alobvious name and leaves one middle name the same. It makes no sense her reason. It'd be different if it was some undisclosed made up last name. But she left it adelson for their most vulnerable Yeats if she did it for " protection " lol she's dumb
Why am I compulsively watching this over and over 😮🤪😱
I know....can't stop....
Same this trial is my comfort show
Same!!!!
Me too ❤
Because there is joy in seeing the rich and powerful fall to their lowest point.
1:06:30 her blink rate goes up substantially when asked what she was doing at the day of the murder
Yes good observation.
Wow. Big time. 🙀
She gives me Shayna Huber vibes. The wide eyed crazy stare. The look I'm so innocent act and trying to outwit the lawyer. Hope she eventually gets convicted
💯
So true !
I don’t understand why people choose murder. She only had to deal with him until the kids were adults. You couldn’t put your differences aside for the love of your kids?
She is an entitled young woman who is used to getting her way, as is the rest of the family. There is no way, in her mind, she should do anything she doesn’t want to do, regardless of whether it is lawful or not.
@@2034916 so so pathethic. Those poor kids had a dad who actually cared & lost him because they couldn’t get their way. Her smirking & acting clueless 🙄
@@2034916 41, hardly could be called young!
@@mamabear5449 - yeah, especially after everything that has come out she has to know what's up (that's assuming she did not have prior knowledge). That look of feigned innocence and incredulousness is so disingenousous and totally fake. And, that utter denial of reality is not going to be received well by the jury.
They weren’t getting their own way with things. Dan fought back against their evil, selfish ways. They decided because of that, they would unalive him even at the expense of her kids. Truly evil
When Wendi Adelson's finally charged & has her trial...would like to see her friends testifying ... Her friends she had lunch with on the day of the murder
Because she's the princess of the family, and they kept her fingerprints off their murder plans because they knew she'd be a suspect. Now they're all paying the price while she sits on the beach with Dan Markels sons.
Yes, I would also like the guy from Best Buy to testify regarding Wendi's mood, etc., the day he looked at the TV.
As others said, she is wearing the same outfit as when she testified in the first trial. That must be on purpose.
-So to confuse public & social media when they see the video, as to whether this is new
-So to remind the public that she has complied with state’s subpoenas
-So to remind LaCasse that she can still fit into the same clothes as when she was younger
I wish she had to testify tomorrow also so we could see whether she would wear it again.
It would be like the woman
Seinfeld dated who wore the same dress to all his dates. Like a superhero with just one outfit, but hundreds of them in her closet.
I also think it is to subconsciously reinforce consistency in her BS denials and lies
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hilarious. When I first saw it, I thought I was looking at her first testimony in the previous trial.
Yes I think it’s to help people think her testimony is the same and to fool the public into thinking it’s old. She could also probably only have one “court” outfit but that’s just me being generous. Definitely sneaky move there ms adelson
@@CMJames YES!! I couldn’t articulate that the way you did - perfect!
@@andrewDaMack IKR!!! Clever girl!!!
It's so different this time around knowing that SHE knows her brother is already sitting in jail for the murder awaiting trial.
Oh, that’s for the update. Didn’t how that
He was arrested?? Oh my I'm behind on this case.
Yep. She’s waaaaaaay less cocky.
Wendi never thought that when her kids grow up, they will eventually know that their mom, grandma/grandpa and uncle were the mastermind killer of their dad 😡
An accomplished academic for that matter. A role model
The kids will never believe it. People jump through so many hoops in their brains to deny things they don’t want to believe.
I feel so bad for the children , father murdered and mother will eventually be incarcerated.
Thell be 18 by this time and change their name back to Markel
Anybody else catch when Wendi said 1:18:29 “ASKED THEM where I could find that” when referring to the liquor she bought that morning? Someone was making sure people remembered her being there that morning IMO.
Like any psychopath you can’t read anything about them seems like she’s not hurt that this guy was tragically murdered
Wendi is not going to enjoy prison
I can't believe how calm Wendi is on the stand knowing that the middle-woman who hired the hit presumably for Charlie to murder Dan is in the courtroom with you. I'd be so angry that my boys were robbed of having a relationship and experiences with their loving father! I don't care how contentious Wendi and Dan's divorce was; the fact that she ordered the hit on Wendi's baby boys father would infuriate me!!! I know she needs to maintain composure yet she seems too calm. Even smiling and quietly laughing at times (might be a nervous laughter) yet this is NO laughing matter. I hope this slow arm of justice speeds way the heck up and everyone involved is brought to justice for this horrific murder. So many lives were ruined and this should've never happened. I am so saddened for those little boys.
It's because she wanted it done and she's a sociopath.
Maybe she took medication to be able to remain call or she is a sociopath & what she did does not bother her. IMO😅
She is a Lawyer, she knows how to play different roles.
She is a narc and knows how to hide it you cn see the papers she is holding shake inside she is scared shitless.// like every other narcissist!
I'm back to say I'm so happy that the long arm of the law has sped up! Charlie has been convicted of murder and will spend the rest of his life in prison and now Donna awaits trial. Now... when will Wendi be arrested? 2024? I have a feeling Georgia Cappelman has a lot on Wendi.
Reading the weird wrinkles on her forehead I conclude she was definitely involved😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
I watched this 3 times of Wendi testifying. My final analysis is that she's a very dark spirited soul with an evil side. Her eyes tell a story that her mouth tries to hide. She knew this murder was going to happen the day her ex boyfriend Jeffery Lacasse was leaving on his trip. This whole conspiracy reads out so clearly to me. Wendi made sure the two murderers rented a car that looked very similar to Jeffries car. Wendi knew the time her ex was leaving up north from Tallahassee and synchronized the murder plot to run parallel to the ex's trip. There's no way that Katherine is innocent. I'm 99.999% sure she was the conduit to this murder of Dan Markel. Charlie thought he was the brains of this plot, but he was actually the downfall to it. Charlie's going to prison for the rest of his life after he loses trial! Wendi will never go to prison, but she will be mentally tortured for the rest of her life thinking about the murder and thinking she's being followed. The mother might get in trouble at some point, but I doubt it. The father Harvey is the only innocent one in this whole murder plot.
@skipp Wendi's apparent sociopathy seems to flow from her relationship with her mother. The mother's vitriol toward her grandchildren's father, as evidenced in the very hateful and disparaging emails to her daughter Wendi, is not something that wold just spontaneously arise. Wendi claims that Dan Markel terrorized her, but offers no details. She claims he defamed her to the FSU law school faculty. But she offers no details. Dan Markel certainly had friends in his colleagues and was in distress about Wendi's efforts to alienate him from his sons. It would be expected that he talk with his friends and get legal ideas about how to prevent the alienation The mother and her mother concocted a conspiracy to target Dan Markel.
I dont beleive any of them are innocent because its obvious that they all knew it was going to happen, including grandpa!
You’re Wrong the Father knew everything prolly helped pay
@@davidschmidt7761 evidence of this?
They may still get Wendi. If she slipped to LaCasse, she's slipped other times. I'm betting the prosecution has a bit more collected on Wendi and Donna. They don't have to show it until there are charges. I'm speculating, but I do think there is likely more
Omfg !!! She's AWFUL on so many levels 🤯 She thinks she's coming off as a sweet & charming victim 😈 She makes me sick 🤢
I hope the Markels stay strong and are ready to receive their grandsons when all the Adelsons are in prison! What kind of sick person changes the last names of her children when their loving father was murdered!
As far as motive goes, at 31:38 it sounds like the family quite literally had a million reasons. Also peculiar is that moments earlier, she can't remember this number, even though "one million dollars" is literally the easiest-to-remember amount.
She even said it in her last testimony. She loves to play dumb, but it just makes her look worse. Also, like her ex boyfriend said, she’s a pathological liar.
Her ex boyfriend said she is “deeply deceptive”
I watched the first trial.. How did the family not go to Jail... They definitely paid to have him killed. She isn’t a good liar 🤥
Trust me they are so arrogant that it has pissed law enforcement off. They are definitely going to get their day. Especially after this airing.
She was very arrogant during the first trial.
The way she holds her eyes unnaturally wide is a big reveal .... in my opinion, that is classic behavior of a guilty person who wants to appear innocent, believable.
That wide eyed doe look has been her go to look. It’s probably gotten her every thing she’s ever wanted.
Im sure a few friends in high places as well... how else could this demon get away with it.@@SA-tx2kl
No worries people. There is no statute of limitations on murder. If this woman is guilty, she’ll be found out.
Same outfit but different hair. She looks stressed out now.
She should be:
She does indeed. That hair looks frazzled 🤣🤣🤣
Charlie is now banged up and the chickens are coming home to ROOST!!!
thank you for airing this case
She thinks that she is smarter than everyone in the world and that she is UNTOUCHABLE. So far, so good. What she and her family did to a really good man is indicative of the world we are living in...darkness and evil abound.
he ex husband was not a good man, he was actually disliked by most of the people who came in contact with him...but he didn't deserve to be murdered just for child custody case.
Wendi makes herself look so innocent. Wide eyed and Doll lips. But time marches on girl and this terrible time will never go away. NEVER.
Plus she won’t be able to get cosmetic procedures in jail. Notice the excess cheek filler here 🤢
I watched the 1st trial now watching this one. Difference...Wendi is less cocky. She knows this time she is not untouchable. The immunity question was classic. She does not have blanketed immunity. State of Florida vs Wendi Adelson...i see it in the future
I sure hope so this has been such a long road of evil created by her.
Finally she can see what it feels like ro sweat alittle. She knows everything, let there be no doubt.
This time around her brother is in jail for the murder, so yeah, she’s definitely not *as* cocky, although she is still far too confident.
Ok so she is testifying in to trails . The one from 2years ago and this one . But does anyone find it weird she’s wearing the exact same clothes in both cases ?
They will indict her...conviction is problematic but let her suffer through a trial and be publicly humiliated.
She's so narcissistic so she will really suffer.
I dislike this woman. She stripped her husband of everything plus his last name for his children. Evil.
Dropping the middle name both family’s lost something that day. Yeah so don’t drop it then.
@@GeeKayCee She took their last name away.
Yes but the middle name didn’t need to be dropped I’m guessing it was Danny that wanted his first child to have that middle name to honour a family member.
She still loathes him to the point of being unable to contain it.
Some people are plain cold bloodied and cold hearted, eternally evil. I believe this is one such person.
Her demeanour changes around the question about the cell phone deletion of messages.
It would have been great if prosecution could have proved she didn’t delete all her text messages. But they didn’t knows he was going to say that. A real missed opportunity to catch her in a lie. And she’s not a suspect. Can you explain how she got immunity and why
