Why is it that the wife has to follow the husbands jobs but the husband doesn't have to follow the wife's job opportunities? This isnt the 1950s. This was 2012 2013. Equal rights for women i demand and pay.
He was so handsome to he had a new gf Wendi was jealous of I guess Tamara stated that Wendi didn’t like any being around her son but yet she let Jeff babysitting but not the dad and she call her parents to babysit and not call Dan she was involved
I honestly don’t think Wendi ever thought Dan would get this much love ❤and he’s mom !! she was jealous of all the love he had before he’s death . Know the hate is to he’s parents it why she took the last name to hurt them she so evil
who is capplemans Co council in sigfredo garcia's murder trial
Ruth looks angelic with bright sun beaming across her face as she’s interviewed. ❤ justice for Dan, and the Markel family including the boys. ❤
I see why her other brother doesn't talk to the family.
Mrs Markle is so sweet and compassionate ❤️💐
Of course WA was givning RM different teories about who had done this to DM.
So sorry ❤
My ❤️ love
Wendis ex bf told the court she told him her brother had looked into a hitman killing her husband for 15 or 50,000 usd . He wasnt sure of the amount as inaudible.
Thats enough to arrrest her right away.
Tick tock
She..Wendi..has zero emotion. Smiling while asking about her divorce..😡
That wasn’t a testimony it was a performance 😂😂and a bad one at that !
Will Donna get the Death penalty? When she is found guilty?
Guilty as charged ! All Adelsons except for the oldest good respected Adelson Rob ! The rest all planned the murder! All but Rob !
love your channel but he was not on the phone with his mother but one of his friends. The podcast Over My Dead Body: Tally from a few years ago even has the guy on interview with them about it.
Cry baby KM for being in a cage for life but she was ok killing a loving father for her b.o..o.b job…enjoy your cage!
Such a lovely and strong lady….Thank you for sharing about Dan….praying for the Markel family
I’m so sorry, Ruth! It’s just horrific! I have a son 3 months younger than Danny! I can’t even imagine your pain!
What a strong and reasonable woman but my heart absolutely bleeds for her. Justice one day will come for Dan and his Markel family.
wendi's wide eyed act is not fooling anyone. This woman must be charged as an accessory to murder! Soon!
His ex wife reminds me of Jodi Arias
I feel so bad for her because just days later. Donna is arrested and gets charged and while it's great that she's going to justice because she will never admit her guilt, it's another agonizing stressful trial that everyone has to endure
God Bless this woman. Wendy was the mastermind. Her and Donna Sue. I can’t wait till Wendy’s part of this unravels .
Hugs and kisses to Ruth. We’re all victims of this heinous crime. A beautiful man was stolen from the world and we demand justice. God bless Georgia. She’s a warrior and a hero.
Sending a heartfelt hug to the Merkel family, I´m hopeful that 2024 will be the year that Justice is served, an all perpetrators answer for their crimes. Keeping the faith, State has a wonderful team and stellar investigative work, unfortunatly, trafficking of influences (peddling) is very real and political corruption in high places needs to be taken care of. Maybe this is the case that will deal with that too.
I cannot even imagine the pain Dans parents feel. Its breaks my heart as a mother. May God give them justice and all involved are punished.
I lost my son in a motorcycle accident a few years ago and it was very painful, I can’t imagined the pain of losing a son under these circumstances! We all want justice in this case, all mothers are Ruth Markel!! 🙏♥️ May God continue to give strength to this admirable mother!
Wendi. Is one smart atty. Yes she should be in jail but i dont think it will happen
Just ordered her book
Wendi doesn't even seem to care that the majority of her family is going to prison for life.
I just came across this and listening to the whole story and this is horrible and sad all at the same time… I just don’t understand why people feel that murder is the way out because it’s not.. one day you will get caught and be punished for it… my heart and prayers are with his mother and his boys 🙏🏾
This bunch off criminals should get life sentences. Wendy is guilty and brother parents. The other 3 got paid to murder. Rest in peace Dan. Nice mother in time off grief thinks about other victims off crime.
There is something really off with Princess Wendi. Peaches and cream masking vengefullness, manipulation, entitlement, lying, and murder conspiracy…Justice will get her, no matter how long it takes.
Wendy TOLD >Charlie we're Dan was going to be that morning.and he TOLD the> Murderers Windy's >Guilty
Guilty
Wendi was absolutely complicit in the murder of Dan!. Her actions on the day of the murders says it all! From her going by the murder scene, to not calling Dan, to trying to blame her ex boyfriend, etc. So she absolutely knew about it!!
Wendy KNEW about this plan to murder her Children's Father!! Her interrogation SHOWS it!! Puts everyone in her Family under the bus to keep suspicion off of her !!
I didn't know much about this but curious why the ex-wife looks joyful/amused all the time
Wendi is in this to her fake colored eyeballs!!!
I wonder if Kate cried on the day Dan killed. Sweet justice. Have a nice life Katie.
Why is his wife not imprisoned?!! She’s evil, she orchestrated the murder. What is wrong with our justice system?! Ughhhhhhh😢
You deserve imprisonment. You helped take an innocent life. A son, a father, a friend. Feel sorry not for yourself, but for all those that lost a son, a father and a friend. Ridiculous. You have no morals to help murder an innocent life.
Clowns
guys its 2023, coutroom footage is more popular than netflix, TIME to install proper audio devices to record the courtroom! sick and tired of struggling to hear interrogation and courtroom footage in this day and age… Still using the same potato microphones from the 90's
It's too bad she couldn't wait till her kids were of age to get a divorce. Her brother wouldn't be in prison, and her mother would most likely be in prison. The other 3 that are in prison already, they wouldn't be in prison. They won't have any special times with their children. And Dan would have watched his children grow up. Dan's wife started all this with her family. She's guilty. She is a liar, and she hasn't got much love for her son's, or she wouldn't of had him killed. Her mother was horrible. Selfish rich people who only care about themselves!
I didn't know that he was Her only Son 😢 And I never knew he was on the phone with his Mother 😢 🙏
They should of All gotten Mr Sparky ⚖️
I 100% believe the wife is guilty. The second I saw her face it’s like her eyes are smiling inside and like she’s trying to not smirk.
