Charlie Adelson took the stand in his own defense Thursday after prosecutors pinned him as the mastermind behind his former brother-in-law’s murder. Investigators believe Adelson hired multiple people to kill Dan Markel — a law professor at Florida State University and the estranged husband to his sister — but Adelson said he is innocent. The Law&Crime Network’s Jesse Weber uncovers the most critical moments of his testimony so far.

Mr. Markel’s children weren’t for sale
Charlie Adelson is an enigma.🤔
Lmao the narrator's (Jesse Weber) fake tan is way too orange.
Charlie looks like Count Dracula 🧛
zero emotions or passion to such a wild story. Even he doesn’t believe it.
🤥🤥🤥🤥
What the heck is he talking about? One would expect a doctor to come up with a better and reasonable story that makes sense.
Most people don't make a hitmen jokes. It was obviously on Charlie's radar.
Looking around and finding i'm not charged with murder. Know why? Cus i don't kill my in laws!!! This family was doing too much!
Extortion my…a**
What a 🤥🤥🤥🤥
Look at his eyes blinking…….
he acts en looks guilty to me
Totally devoid of any emotion.
When his lawyer asked him why he was nervous you'd think he would look at the jury straight on and say "I'm afraid I'm going to get convicted of something I didn't do."
Why does everyone in the case call him DAN when everyone in his family calls him DANNY??
Mr. "By the way"…..
who's
This is actually not uncommon at all in the ultra religious jewish community they order hits on exes all the time
Wow. Dangerous hitmen take payment plans! Do they charge interest?
How would the hit man know Dan , where he lived and worked out
The guys blink rate changes when he lies. It looks down to the right and blinks about 4 times faster…4-6 rapid blinks.
No one except the Adelson family had a motive to kill him. It's pretty cut and dry. As for who the ring leaders were…I think the mother is the most manipulative in the family and the rest just follow her directive. The daughter is also in on it obviously as she had the most to gain.
did his legal team actually think the jury or the public would believe this extortion story? lol
Why have the Adelson family invested so much faith in that defence attorney? I’m not impressed with him!
When they had family gatherings did they sit around talking about how they could get Dan Markel murdered? How sick.
People blink a lot when lying.
How does someone go from having the best of everything in life to living in a filthy world prison
I thought he was supposed to pay 3k a month @20:50 Charlie says 1k a month
Charlies seems VERY reckless and childish to be a "dentist"….has anyone checked his credentials ??? WOW….ugghhh……..
He is lying
Charlie looks like Larry on the Three Stooges
Charlie Adelson has really thin lips chicken lips😂😂😂😂
Extortion – in this case was probably the most ridiculous theory in criminal trial history but nice try bud
😂😂 I cant believe this guy thinks people will believe this😂😂
Funny how charlie complains that the jury was not smart! But he made sure that the guy with a photographic memory was X off the jury!
This aged well
He is Guilty that why he is nervous
His testimony got his mom into trouble.
Catches up with you
Like who says a third of a million dollars…he's so full of poo
