Tara oh yes it’s all because of money that these guys have not been “ratted” out. Probably offering them a million dollars to be quiet. They might actually get away with it.
I am watching this on 12 th December 2023, the day where Charlie Adelson was sentenced to three consecutive life sentences and Donna Adelson his mother ,having been arrested trying to flee the country on a one way ticket to Vietnam where she could not be extradited is currently awaiting trial and in jail. It is fantastic that Law and Crime leave all these proceedings up to watch on UA-cam, as I often go back through cases and watch things I skipped through or missed at the time. Or with some trials I just hear the verdict and then that gets me interested in going back over aspects of a trial . Thank you so much Law and Crime. At the moment Wendy is managing to escape arrest and has only appeared as a witness to date ( in Charlie's trial ) it will be interesting to see how Donna's trial goes and if any more evidence comes to light in order to prove to a jury Wendy's most likely involvement .
I’m just now watching this case as well! I first seen a clip on TT. I feel like Luis is a big asset to this case as to getting the correct people charged and indicted for this! Although I read your first part and got a big spoiler alert lol, I haven’t got to the sentencing part yet! Next I’m going to watch the mother’s court case because her emotions apparently get the best of her lol.
Yes, It’s good to rewatch, catch up, and pick up on the nuances of these cases, Thanks to L-n-C. I love the codes Rivera used in his message to Garcia. “ I’m taking classes” “ I’m holding my head up high.” to me that means, I’ve learned some things. I know what is going on, and I’m still at the top. He might not be able to read, but he knows the game. He was smart enough to get less time, and LE learned he was truthful. He let them know that was their second trip up to Tally, and Garcia shot the floorboard in the Prius. Both, establish his truthfulness. The first drive up to Tallahassee was a sweet surprise for LE.
agreed! i am watching after the Daybell trial and a podcaster named PD Questions dives into Wendi. across the country from Florida i hadn’t heard about this
He claims they wouldn't do it in front of the kids. And if you watch his interrogation video (which I don't think the jury was privy to), he claims to have had alot of guilt thereafter and that he kept thinking of Markel.
@@kjnest Makes me wonder: if people didn't have to worry about basic needs (their health, food, shelter, safety), would they be stronger and not follow a life of crime? It surely would be an interesting experiment. I'd bet some people would take the high road (no pun here). But then, some people wouldn't be able to 'be bought' (for cheap) to do this type of dirty work.
So, how is it that Wendi Adelson testified and was given protection to not be prosecuted after we learn that she financed the hit. I just do not get it at all.
@@normacolon9618 Day 3: Wendi Adelson said a version of what happened, where she saw tape & where turned around when discussing her top to the liquor store Day 3: Ofc Bill Branno who was on Perimeter detail @ Scene said he saw a darker red, Honda Odyssey minivan. Wendi's Minivan color was related to Ofc Branno upon LEO arriving on scene. Told by the neighbor "G..." who had called 911 previously. Ofc. Branno, had been told to BOLO for Wendi's Van by Chief officer on scene &, if it showed up; to take no further action than reporting if it showed up. Ofc. Branno related the red van (Wendi's) traveled further down the street than Wendi had indicated (without having heard her testimony). She would have had to go further down the street as the standard yellow crime tape- although encompassing a few houses- would not have been visible at the head of the street. Ofc. Branno observed & reported The 'darker Red' Odyssey minivan drive toward crime scene, promptly execute a 3 point turn around, & left the way it came. And that the minivan did these actions without the hesitancy he would reasonably expect a driver surprised by a road closure would display- confidently swift as if expected, but without screeching tires or anything like that.
They told Garcia that Wendi was paying for it when in fact it was Charlie paying. Garcia hated Charlie and would not have worked for him. In order to get him to do the hit, Katie told him it was for Wendi. Ultimately it really was for Wendi but she had no contact with Katie, only Charlie did. No one knows how the murder bill was split within the Adelson family.
When did “we learn” that Wendi “financed the hit”? I mean, I’m ready for Wendi to be charged but I haven’t seen any evidence presented that she can be charged with…have you?
@@normacolon9618 In a previous part of this long testimony by Rivera, he states that on one of their drives by Dan's house, both he and Garcia saw Wendi leaving Dan's house, with the kids. This is noteworthy because Rivera didn't want kids at the scene when they did the 'bump'.... so, they didn't do it at that time.
If I were the defendants, I would feel “I’m sooo.....screwed.....”. How can I get out of this? How do I explain the bullet hole? How do I explain everything away? How do I explain away the connection with the Adelsons? Any ideas?
I have a feeling they have a suicide pact.....come the day, I don't see them facing trial. It's weird how the WHOLE family would conspire to kill this man as in most cases it's just the wife who bumbs off her husband. I love my family and all but I'm not killing for them...this trial is crazy.
Always hire a gang member if you want to have someone killed.The jury will always find them guilty oh and by the way it might pay to get a weetie box dentist certificate to make you more credible than the thug you hire to kill your grand childrens father or daughters has been hubby

Yeah I’m glad she put out did these case had to do with Latin king I’m glad she asked be that attorney was all about laying king nothing to do with Dan murder
I might be wrong, but I feel like this man, Rivera, didn't have the right kind of chance in life. Some one, I hope, will help him, mentor him, teach him how to get by the right way, while he's in prison. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just have a hard time believing that this man is evil. I hope I'm right.
If you listened to the whole testimony, he indicated he was born into a gang meaning his mother and father were gang members. People know what's right and wrong, they have choices and they make those choices.
I agree. Born into a gang as the Latin Kings. Ooof. You're fudged the day you were born. In all the chaos, the criminal activities, etc, he managed to have a job for 15 years. Besides "street jobs". It's like a freaking cult, without all the violence. They teach you about what's expected of you from baby steps. That's that. Nuts.

With the upmost respect ✊ I don’t like when a judge plays favoritism between attorney’s. While Mrs Katharine’s attorney was steadily being objected & it stood, Mr Luis’s attorney was constantly being objected by both attorneys and the judge overruled them both. I’ve noticed this happened quite often throughout the videos of the trial that I’ve seen thus far. If I’m being a bit petty, I apologize, there’s just been quite a few questions that I thought was pretty relevant from the other attorneys that should have been allowed for answering. (Not to mention I really wanted to hear the answers 😆) This truly is 1 of the most disheartening stories I’ve heard. So many lives that’s been affected & could have been avoided. I’ll never ever understand how certain individuals think that they can play God in others lives, but that they actually think they will get away with it. Truly is so mind boggling. Those who haven’t been caught yet, well, all in due time because God never sleeps!
Amen. I will say this by this being the State's case, they have the obligation to prove guilt thus their witnesses must be clearly heard giving the jury enough information to produce a verdict. Granted the defense will argue and object. But I believe the judge must overrule many of the objections that the jury may hear complete thoughts. 🤔
I like how when Rivera is asked about NOT smoking marijuana on probation AND WHY if it was to keep a straight head on the way up to commit the execution or homicide or to just make sure that he doesn't ruin his probation... 😁He is just too brutally honest for these people he just flat out SAVAGELY says Rivera: "when your on probation, you gotta go an piss for em' and it'll show up in your tests"..lol 😂🤣😭🤣😂😭🤣😂😭🤣😂 to which Blondie replies: oh ok so you wasn't trying to be a good probationer, you were just trying to beat the system, GAME the system if you will .. and without a single second of hesitation Rivera says "yes ma'am" .....🤪 Rivera's Attorney: OBJECTION!!🤬
@Gerald Williamson I don't believe anything he says.. I wouldn't be surprised if they found out he wasn't there and he made up this elaborate story to save his self.
@@feliciafoster2828 He is sitting on a murder charge that could get him the death penalty. The deal he made for this testimony gets his sentence reduced to 7yrs. I'm pretty sure he will say anything the state tells him to.
I don’t see why they don’t offer sentence reduction to convicted shooter for testimony to Edelsons convictions. I don’t like it but Edelsons are the murderers, it started with them.
Todd Eden Amen. This man would still probably be alive if it wasn’t for the he exwife and her family. These guys who got caught for the killing should all get a deal a very little time @nd the family should get the time. They were the head snakes in this who dunit
he cut a deal with the feds alright, and the co-defendant (garcia) doesn't want to talk. this guy said Garcia was the hit man that Garcia did this and did that. what if Garcia denies all that allegation, 2 years ago? any chance of miss trial. what if it was the other way around? since they got nothing to lose.
The prosecutor asks question and he answers, she rephrases his answer to mean a different thing then what he said, and asks more questions on the assumption she understood him correctly and Rivera doesn't notice, or is too tired to try to explain it to her. Rivera will be their best asset in a case against the Adelson's but he judge is right, the prosecutors questions are too complex. Also when she reads back texts or transcripts it can make it hard to follow sometimes when everything is completely monotone with no inflection or pause to indicate subject A or B. I'm sure the lady is extremely intelligent and detail oriented, but she needs to be able to better utilize the cooperating witness as well as putting just a little more life into the read backs so everything is easier to follow.
" the lady is extremely intelligent" only the mediocre take up law as a profession, just like politics. The brightest go to scientific and engineering professions.
Yes, Magbanua’s Defense attorney is all over the place. Her questions are circular, and confusing. I think she was trying to throw Luis off his testimony, but she fell flat, and probably lost the jurors along the way.
@@sunflower2357 The prosecutor said there is not enough evidence to charge them yet. I believe that Wendi being a lawyer and having the money for legal protection has also protected the family.
@@looking4things669 I think the family did it on their own, I don’t think Wendi knew of this, but she was always crying and complaining To her family and that’s why they hated markel and took action w/o her knowing because she would’ve been 1st one to be suspicious and she had an account of her day.
@@looking4things669The family has money, legal, and political connections. Those advantages PLUS having them in Florida means possibly never facing the consequences of their criminal actions. Just L👀K at the most well known resident crook. Divine justice would mean that Charlie A. and Donald T. become bunkies!
I think they had an idea of his habits, but there are bus cameras that caught both Dan and the suspect car traveling towards Dan’s house. There is also a bus camera that captured the suspects as they left the house after the murder.
Just a comment to the female lawyer examining Mr Rivera. Understand I'm not on his side. He is a piece of sxit for taking a life. Prosecutors/lawyers... when you're examining someone who is not combative, don't be overly aggressive. Be confident, and present your case. From a potential juror point of view, it pushes the juror to the side of the defendant, looking like they're being bullied.....😮😮
The Lady with blond long hair is the prosector and is an excellent ASA. She is very impressive and knows best how to prosecute the criminals and ask question of witnesses. It's not like the TV fake attorneys.
How can he say he saw the lady with the kids, when the kids were in a daycare center when he got shot in the garage of his house. Anyone mention nothing about the discrepancy how did they know what Wendi looked like if they only had a picture of markel/lawyer. How did the 35,000 get to Florida from Tennessee when supposedly they had bought it to the partners girlfriend’s house
Louis saw the lady staring at them as they were in the neighborhood scoping out Dan’s house on a trip before the murder. He asked Garcia who she was and said she’s the lady with the kids.
Garcia’s attorney takes a very long time to make no point whatsoever. And is very annoying while doing it. Kaddie’s attorney could not possibly think his client is not guilty. She is the only possible link between the killers and the Adelsons.
Just think what he could do with his life if you could read and write he wouldn't be sitting in the this position. $35,000 and he ends up in jail for murder. The Kings will go after his children.
That word that they mentioned in the email that he had sent saying tell the family what’s up must be a code word at the brother sent the sister when it was done what’s up that’s all that he sent her in an sms!
So they need to check he’s phone or he may had a burner phone if Garcia went one more time before he took Luis so I think if he knew he’s way around to Dan that mean he was looking at the place to shoot him
I feel bad for Luis 36 never went to school raising by kings it sad when he said he didn’t want to kill a dad with kids it shows he had some feelings but it he’s bf friends all this would’ve happened if it wasn’t for Katy
So, on the first trip in JUNE the DRIVER was BOTH …. Shooter and Driver. However, in JUNE … they thought 'the lady' in Tallahassee could be ROBBED? So, the money WAS in ….. TALLAHASSEE …. No? Thus, when and where did they believe they were going to get paid in Tallahassee? WHO and WHERE …. was he going to ROB …. the person/lady with the money? Are we sure ….. Rivera and Garcia didn't pick up the money in JULY in Tallahassee? Behind Dan's house in Betton Hills on the secluded/hidden nature trails? Or, is his 'robbery' plea deal stories …. all …. BS? Something is … MISSING … for this to line up …. and be …. true.
If u see Garcia he’s not looked at Katy not one time he has to be so mad that he did this for her lover the man he hated that what he get she tell him I go back to u if u this for me and Wendi which it was 4 her he hasn’t seen a pic I hope the show him the pic of Wendi when they arrested because it time so far away he forget but he did say a women in two kids in front of Dan and Saadi he say use her phone
I wonder if anyone notices how biased this judge is. Every time the prosecutor objects to the defense attorneys the judge sustains the objection, but when the defense objects to the prosecution, they always get overruled. Very biased!! His patience level is very short with the defense attorneys as well compared to the prosecution attorneys. 😤
I don't think for one second that he can't read or write or that he only rode all that way with him and did nothing else and got 35,000 for riding along.
He sounds the most truthful of all. And that’s probably very embarrassing for him, why would he make that up?? Smh He even said he wanted to rob Wendi instead. Sounds very authentic to me
The Leader of the Latin kings ? No way he is an informant and they would have killed him by now. And even posing as one he would be dead. No other way around it unless he is watched 24 hours a day and night. This whole trail has been circumstantial and so are most trails that I have seen. There was a a time when circumstantial evidence could not be used to prove any trail.
You just hope that at some point Georgia will wake up and realise that Katie isn't involved and Luis is telling her a pack of lies. It's not even difficult to see so she's got no excuse
Such a nice respectful judge. The jury must really appreciate him.
Wendy said that the police are not going to arrest her. I hope she eats those words and dons the steel bracelets.
AND SHE LAUGHED 😡
I know they should have arrested her tight there
I wish they would show the defendants. I hope the witness (Mr. Rivera) learns to read in prison, I think it will change his life.

23:03 😂😂😂 LMAO. The way she said it had me rolling.
Why is taking so long to prosecute Wendy and her family, Garcia was a hit man and his girlfriend.
As you probably now know, Charlie Adelson is now locked up and will face prosecution… one by one, they’re going down.
@@leeprimeau7912 Yep, around March 2023 he will be on the stand.
I don’t see why they don’t offer sentence reduction to convicted shooter for testimony to Edelsons convictions. I don’t like it but Edelsons are the murderers, it started with them.
Todd Eden Amen. This man would still probably be alive if it wasn’t for the he exwife and her family. These guys who got caught for the killing should all get a deal a very little time @nd the family should get the time. They were the head snakes in this who dunit
So true .
he cut a deal with the feds alright, and the co-defendant (garcia) doesn't want to talk. this guy said Garcia was the hit man that Garcia did this and did that. what if Garcia denies all that allegation, 2 years ago? any chance of miss trial. what if it was the other way around? since they got nothing to lose.
@@Straightup825
The shooter refused, he didn't want to rat on KM, the mother
Of his children remembers kM
had a mistrial had a chance of getting off!
They took way too long showing what happened to the Prius. We get it.
RIGHT LMAO
The prosecutor asks question and he answers, she rephrases his answer to mean a different thing then what he said, and asks more questions on the assumption she understood him correctly and Rivera doesn't notice, or is too tired to try to explain it to her.
Rivera will be their best asset in a case against the Adelson's but he judge is right, the prosecutors questions are too complex. Also when she reads back texts or transcripts it can make it hard to follow sometimes when everything is completely monotone with no inflection or pause to indicate subject A or B. I'm sure the lady is extremely intelligent and detail oriented, but she needs to be able to better utilize the cooperating witness as well as putting just a little more life into the read backs so everything is easier to follow.
She’s almost reading a full length book by the time she asks a question.
There is no life in anything that woman says😐
@@kristin.shepherd there was a little life in that n word though
" the lady is extremely intelligent" only the mediocre take up law as a profession, just like politics.
The brightest go to scientific and engineering professions.
Yes, Magbanua’s Defense attorney is all over the place. Her questions are circular, and confusing. I think she was trying to throw Luis off his testimony, but she fell flat, and probably lost the jurors along the way.
Lawyer keeps saying I axed you!!! Where did this woman go to school?!!!!!!!!!
Axed and ansred ... move on!
he took pictures of 🦉
Wendy had an 🦉 on her shirt at police interview
I know it means nothing but it's interesting 🤔
Never heard about the owl, if anything owl means death, doesn’t it???
@@normacolon9618 Nope. Occult symbolism.
She also went to buy bulliet bourbon on the day..
Is that a coincidence? 😳
Ohh really??
I hope some time in the future they charge Wendy's ( I am a Attorney) guilty azz !!!
Why hasn’t the family been arrested any thoughts.?
@@sunflower2357 The prosecutor said there is not enough evidence to charge them yet. I believe that Wendi being a lawyer and having the money for legal protection has also protected the family.
@@looking4things669 I think the family did it on their own, I don’t think Wendi knew of this, but she was always crying and complaining
To her family and that’s why they hated markel and took action w/o her knowing because she would’ve been 1st one to be suspicious and she had an account of her day.
@@normacolon9618 Wendi knew. Did she fool you too?
@@looking4things669The family has money, legal, and political connections. Those advantages PLUS having them in Florida means possibly never facing the consequences of their criminal actions. Just L👀K at the most well known resident crook. Divine justice would mean that Charlie A. and Donald T. become bunkies!
He could read and write because he sends emails and receive emails.
He probably has someone helping with that.
@@carlosue5472 r u fking serious? 🤣🤣
What does it matter what happen to the Prius? It matters that they used it or saw it on video or thru the tolls, or getting gas..whatever.
@@normacolon9618 - It matters due to being a detail to confirm it was the car used. Details always help.
So there were many people around and came thru and left thru another entrance how did they follow him to then kill him.
I think they had an idea of his habits, but there are bus cameras that caught both Dan and the suspect car traveling towards Dan’s house. There is also a bus camera that captured the suspects as they left the house after the murder.
Well it could be simple writing, but not complicated legal terminology..most people do t understand or couldn’t spelllegal jargon
I enjoyed the testimony of Shoddrick Noble - thought anything could happen at anytime 😂
There you go the money for the hit came from the adelsons
Duh
Garcia looks like a “TV hit man”
Believe EVERY" WORD> Mr. RIVERA' Said....
Good judge, by the way!
He looks at her face straight no blinks no moving no turning he telling the just as Jeff
I don’t like how the judge talks to Georgia
Just a comment to the female lawyer examining Mr Rivera. Understand I'm not on his side. He is a piece of sxit for taking a life. Prosecutors/lawyers... when you're examining someone who is not combative, don't be overly aggressive. Be confident, and present your case. From a potential juror point of view, it pushes the juror to the side of the defendant, looking like they're being bullied.....😮😮
lol be confident, that's not how it works. The lawyers here are VERY CONFIDENT.
@@batangaseaaa In my opinion....
I completely agree with you. It makes the defense attorney look weak and Mr. Garcia appear sympathetic.
Rude defense lawyers
That judge always being mean to Georgia and not those rude defense attorneys it ridiculous
Why does the judge sound like he’s 105 years old
Is the Lady asking Luis the prosecutor? She is not impressive at all. She sounds like a weak chain to the prosecution.
The Lady with blond long hair is the prosector and is an excellent ASA. She is very impressive and knows best how to prosecute the criminals and ask question of witnesses. It's not like the TV fake attorneys.
This guy just agrees with whatever they ask- I can’t tell whether he’s deceptive or just not too bright. Maybe a little of both?
How can he say he saw the lady with the kids, when the kids were in a daycare center when he got shot in the garage of his house. Anyone mention nothing about the discrepancy how did they know what Wendi looked like if they only had a picture of markel/lawyer. How did the 35,000 get to Florida from Tennessee when supposedly they had bought it to the partners girlfriend’s house
I don’t think it was literal he just remembers her in that way she’s the lady with the kids I believe
Louis saw the lady staring at them as they were in the neighborhood scoping out Dan’s house on a trip before the murder. He asked Garcia who she was and said she’s the lady with the kids.
He saw her with the kids
The first trip, KM called them to get out there, Wendi asked KM to tell them, so Wendi knows who they were and why they were there!
Was the first trip!!
Dan believed in the Justice system his whole life
The n word was the only thing this prosecutor said with life 😂
Garcia’s attorney takes a very long time to make no point whatsoever. And is very annoying while doing it. Kaddie’s attorney could not possibly think his client is not guilty. She is the only possible link between the killers and the Adelsons.
Just think what he could do with his life if you could read and write he wouldn't be sitting in the this position. $35,000 and he ends up in jail for murder. The Kings will go after his children.
Anthony Ziemba true $35 k is nothing for your life. Very sad. He had so much potential.
I’d rather see Wendi take this man’s spot in prison tbh..
Wendi's the Blog
That word that they mentioned in the email that he had sent saying tell the family what’s up must be a code word at the brother sent the sister when it was done what’s up that’s all that he sent her in an sms!
No it just means the gang or Garcia’s literal family.
What’s up is used too often with everyone to say what’s happening, how is all, etc. no codes for this.
So they need to check he’s phone or he may had a burner phone if Garcia went one more time before he took Luis so I think if he knew he’s way around to Dan that mean he was looking at the place to shoot him
He rude the defense
he'd be a laugh a minute to go on a journey with - he can't read the road signs
"No one aksed you"
Where the f this n at?? Lol😄
Was Rivera CRYING? There’s no crying in MURDER 😡
I feel bad for Luis 36 never went to school raising by kings it sad when he said he didn’t want to kill a dad with kids it shows he had some feelings but it he’s bf friends all this would’ve happened if it wasn’t for Katy
this woman attorney is so annoying and why so focusing on this witness criminal life. no wonder her client was convicted she is. a bad lawyer.
Can we say Dexter 😂
Wendy paid for the hit and is still free ....what even.
Wendy didn’t pay, cuz he contradicts himself and says he had Cathy bring money to his girlfriends house.
boy he gonna have to live in solitary confinment cause they will take his life for snitching
14.30 that you gaaaaave, gaaaaave, gaaaaave
Does it really matter how much coke Garcia was doing??… no
They are going to get windi.just u wait and see. I promise.
She do aiight
Gotta be a rat for future feedom
I go down, ya'll go down with me!
Tara k is horrid
This prosecutor seems so put out even being there. She sounds annoyed with zero passion.
NO she doesn't. Georgia Cappleman is an outstanding brilliant ASA. She is one of the very best!
A.D.R
So, on the first trip in JUNE the DRIVER was BOTH …. Shooter and Driver.
However, in JUNE … they thought 'the lady' in Tallahassee could be ROBBED?
So, the money WAS in ….. TALLAHASSEE …. No?
Thus, when and where did they believe they were going to get paid in Tallahassee?
WHO and WHERE …. was he going to ROB …. the person/lady with the money?
Are we sure ….. Rivera and Garcia didn't pick up the money in JULY in Tallahassee? Behind Dan's house in Betton Hills on the secluded/hidden nature trails?
Or, is his 'robbery' plea deal stories …. all …. BS?
Something is … MISSING … for this to line up …. and be …. true.
The lady they thought was paying and had the money for the murder was Wendi who lived in Tallahassee.
If u see Garcia he’s not looked at Katy not one time he has to be so mad that he did this for her lover the man he hated that what he get she tell him I go back to u if u this for me and Wendi which it was 4 her he hasn’t seen a pic I hope the show him the pic of Wendi when they arrested because it time so far away he forget but he did say a women in two kids in front of Dan and Saadi he say use her phone
I wonder if anyone notices how biased this judge is. Every time the prosecutor objects to the defense attorneys the judge sustains the objection, but when the defense objects to the prosecution, they always get overruled. Very biased!! His patience level is very short with the defense attorneys as well compared to the prosecution attorneys. 😤
I don't think for one second that he can't read or write or that he only rode all that way with him and did nothing else and got 35,000 for riding along.
Okay but you have nothing to say about the mastermind behind this whole thing?? Sounds about whYte...
He sounds the most truthful of all. And that’s probably very embarrassing for him, why would he make that up?? Smh
He even said he wanted to rob Wendi instead. Sounds very authentic to me
The Leader of the Latin kings ? No way he is an informant and they would have killed him by now. And even posing as one he would be dead. No other way around it unless he is watched 24 hours a day and night. This whole trail has been circumstantial and so are most trails that I have seen. There was a a time when circumstantial evidence could not be used to prove any trail.
Snitches get stitches!
You'll be a snitch too if you were to receive the death penalty.
How old are you? That is something a 12yr old wld say.
You just hope that at some point Georgia will wake up and realise that Katie isn't involved and Luis is telling her a pack of lies. It's not even difficult to see so she's got no excuse
You’re a clown
She. Just admitted her guilt on the proffer.
23:05 someone please loop that lol
