Florida dentist Charlie Adelson faces trial for allegedly hiring hitmen to kill his ex-brother-in-law, Dan Markel, a former law professor at Florida State University. Adelson is accused of being the ring leader in Markel’s brutal murder. This is the fourth and final trial in the 2014 murder case, following guilty convictions of the three others involved — Katherine Magbanua, Sigfredo Garcia, and Luis Rivera. Adelson is charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and solicitation of murder.

" I can't help but think that someone may've done this ( murder ), not because they hate Danny but because it would help me somehow.." One of the many weird statements Wendi made in the police interivew demonstrating that not only is she full of herself, but also strongly suggests that the statement was designed to implicate Jeffrey lacasse, the boyfriend she conveniently dropped murder week. Again, something one would say as part of a plan and/or conspiracy.
9:29:05 Looks like Charlie's getting on his counsel's nerves in the last few seconds of the days' footage.
8:55:18 Wendi's eyes darting around like crazy
8:16:07 Stretch that back, lady!
Tallahassee courts and jury's convicted many innocent people. Travesty of Justice: The Dr. Adam Frasch Case
A must read.
7:03:28 Look at that chin jut & baring of lower teeth! She’s still that hostile & angry after 10 years. That’s the most aggressive & severe display I’ve ever seen in someone in this particular situation concerning the type of questions she’s being asked at this time.
She moved out, taking the kids, without telling him when he was on a business trip. Wow, that says a lot about her inability to effectively communicate, yet she’s a lawyer and was a professor??? 😂 She could’ve been charged with kidnapping for that.
Miss Dugan. Please sit Down. Your turn is Over
Cappelman is a sneak and twist the truth. Should never expect this from a lawyer from the government. I've seen everything now. She's just another politician.
How did State not bust out laughing at DR opening? 😅😂😂
Was it just my critical eye of Charlie, but I saw him smiling at DR opening…probthinking." take that State"! He even looked over at Georgia to see their reaction. Seedy. DR and CA
Cappelman does alot of Lawyer Tricks. Shame Shame.
2:42:45 Why r u screaming, Dan? Lil frantic, aren't ya?
2:44:07. HUH?
Wait, that's actually a statement? Wtf he say? Allegedly.
I wish the judge wouldn't snort up his mucus during the trial so many times. Disgusting. Maybe if he turned of his Mic off, Would be better.
Thanks Capleman for Wendi's phone number. Will give her a call soon to support her.
No dna. No gun. No eye witness. Not Guilty.
Ugh, could not stand Wendi's doe eyed trying to appear innocent look and responses 😆🤢
I can’t believe the time wasted waiting on the jury! You have a lunch break. EST and go potty and be ready! This is ridiculous!
I hope dans family gets to see his children.
Feel so bad for dan and his family. Adelsons are a wicked wicked family and you bet wendy is the catalyst and the manipulator and planner of dans murder. Feds are coming.

Miss Dugan!! Sit down allready.. 1:53:00
The phrase "puzzle pieces " will forever irritate me after this
Dan what does Wendy drink have to do with are trying to make look not guilty why u think u be her lawyer ur a joke the bullet drink had nothing to with Charlie you so pathetic Dan and all your objection are also pathetic
No human being are cruelty as Wendi
Salute to the agents/detectives/officers who spent several years on this investigation, patiently sorting through a mountain of records and surveillance footage, following the evidence, uncovering the truth and ultimately charging (and leading to convictions of) those involved in this heinous murder. Phenomenal work. Well done!!
I love this judge. But does anyone know why the original judge came off the case, he handled both Katie retrial and Sigfredo and Katie combined trial? He may have gone in pension but was just wondering why he done everything on Charlie’s pre trial then at the start of Charlie’s trial we have a new judge. Not that I’m complaining because this judge was fair impartial and done an amazing job. I look forward to seeing him on Donna’s trial
Alot of speculation in the open statement of the prosecution
Even though i don't agree with Miss Dugan I stlll think she's attractive especially with her high heels
Loving farther that was a control freak and a terrible husband. His education destroyed himself.
I can't believe this was the first time i watched James Geiger's testimony, wow !!! He was the best witness by far
They're holding YThug cause he rented a car involved in a crime
She needs a xanax😂😂😂😂
Wendi is innocent. Case closed.
Whendi’s exaggerated victim-y doll face gestures are obvious to normal not sociopathic humans🙄
At 707:47, Charlie is about ready to cry listening to Wendi testify!!
Just a hard working
Peridontist 🫣
She is so passive aggressive it's INSANE
This woman needs to GO DOWN
Wendi is much more sedate and well-behaved in her 2023 testimony here than she was in the 2019 trial of Garcia and Magbanua. She obviously realized she came off looking terrible in the first trial, cocky, deceitful, dodgy.
Wendi had to be in on it to make sure that her kids wouldn't be anywhere near the murder. She had to communicate that information to either Donna or Charlie.
6:50:14 Why did they put Wendi Adelson right in front of Dan Markel's father? Or did she choose that seat? Uncomfortable.
Wondering if Charlie and Wendi will testify in donnas trial
