What Wendi Adelson KNEW: The Hitman Plot & A Bizarre Crematory Lawyer The Adelson case is a labyrinth of dark secrets and bizarre details, and this segment explores some of the strangest yet. With legal expert Eric Faddis, we continue our analysis of Donna Adelson's appeal, including claims of a biased judge and another juror who appeared on a podcast post-verdict. Then, we uncover one of the most baffling details of the trial: Donna's defense attorney operates her law practice out of a local crematorium. Yes, you read that right. From there, the conversation turns to the woman at the very center of the storm: Wendi Adelson. We revisit the damning testimony from her ex-boyfriend, Professor Jeff Lacasse, who told the court that Wendi confessed her brother Charlie had looked into all options to solve the "Dan Markel problem," including hiring a hitman. She allegedly described it as a joke, but his testimony painted a much more serious picture. This raises a monumental question: What is a person's moral and legal responsibility when they hear something like that? If Wendi knew her family was even considering murder, did she have a duty to report it to the police? We dive into the complex legal ethics with Eric Faddis, debating the line between "just talk" and a credible threat. This is a crucial examination of Wendi's potential knowledge and complicity, shedding new light on her role in the tragic murder of her ex-husband, Dan Markel.

The Case AGAINST Wendi Adelson: Is There Enough Evidence to Charge Her? With her mother Donna and brother Charlie convicted and behind bars, all eyes are now on Wendi Adelson. Is she the mastermind who has evaded justice, or is she the ultimate victim of her toxic family's crimes? In this riveting final discussion with legal expert Eric Faddis, we game out the future of Wendi Adelson. Prosecutor Georgia Cappleman's cryptic "stay tuned" comment has the true crime world buzzing. We analyze what additional evidence the state might need to finally bring charges against Wendi. Could testimony from one of her ex-boyfriends about a potential framing attempt be the key? Then, we explore the incredible pressure Wendi is under from all sides. Who should she fear more: the prosecutors building a case against her, or her own mother and brother, who might be tempted to make a deal and trade information on her for a lighter sentence? It's a classic prisoner's dilemma with life-altering stakes. We debate her best possible move if she is truly innocent. Does she disappear, change her name, and escape the hellscape her family created? Or does she take control of the narrative, write a tell-all book, and finally share her side of the story—a move fraught with its own legal perils? This is a masterclass in legal strategy and a chilling look at the final, uncertain chapter of the Dan Markel murder saga.

Big Breakdown - The Walls Close In Wendi Adelson's Future After Donna's Trial With Donna Adelson convicted, attention now turns to the daughter at the heart of the Markel murder saga: Wendi Adelson. In this Big Breakdown, Tony Brueski and the Hidden Killers team examine what's next for Wendi as prosecutors tighten the net around the Adelson family. We analyze how the state used Donna's words and actions to establish the family conspiracy, and why Wendi's own behavior — from her testimony to her personal statements — has long drawn scrutiny. With her mother behind bars and her brother Charlie already convicted, Wendi now stands alone in the spotlight. Could she be the next Adelson to face charges? This episode explores the possible legal strategies prosecutors may use, the evidence that could implicate Wendi further, and the psychology of someone who has lived under suspicion for nearly a decade. As the “walls close in,” the question isn't just whether Wendi Adelson will be charged — it's whether justice for Dan Markel will finally come full circle.

This episode covers every angle, from shocking new developments to expert legal analysis. First, we tackle the stunning news that the Alex Murdaugh case is far from over.

Wendi Adelson's Nervous Rambling to Police — What Does It Reveal?  In this segment, Hidden Killers Live rewinds to one of the earliest and most telling moments in the Dan Markel murder case: Wendi Adelson's very first police interview. The father of her children had just been gunned down, and police needed answers. What they got instead was a jumble of contradictions, tangents, and nervous oversharing. Tony, Stacy, and Todd watch closely as Wendi reacts to the devastating news. At first she insists everyone loved Dan, then pivots to pointing out his new girlfriend, oddly focusing on her looks. She waffles between denial and suspicion, almost as if she's scattering possibilities into the air to see what sticks. Her words don't land like those of a grieving ex-wife — they land like someone on edge, already trying to cover ground before accusations even surface. The hosts point out how immature some of Wendi's comments sound, especially for a law professor. From obsessing about appearances to nervously asking if she might be a suspect, Wendi's behavior raises questions that echo years later in court. Is this simply shock, or was she too close to the truth for comfort? This early interrogation clip lays the groundwork for everything that followed in the Adelson case, and the commentary digs deep into the psychology behind her answers. Was Wendi just overwhelmed by tragedy, or were these the first cracks in a carefully constructed facade?

If Wendi Adelson KNEW: Psychotherapist Breaks Down the Mind Games Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the conversation, bringing a professional lens to the question haunting the case: what if Wendi Adelson actually knew? In this segment, the team explores the psychology of complicity. Could Wendi's scattered interview responses reflect someone who was covering up knowledge of her family's role in Dan Markel's murder? Shavaun explains how people in enmeshed families often compartmentalize, splitting their lives into separate realities. On the outside, Wendi was a respected law professor and mother. But if she knew, privately she may have been carrying the weight of a devastating secret — one that fractured her identity into two halves. The discussion also highlights Donna Adelson's outsized role as a domineering, controlling matriarch. Raised in that environment, Wendi may have lacked the tools to assert independence. If she knew her family was involved, how could she have processed that truth while still functioning in her professional and public life? The conversation paints a chilling picture of how someone could live with knowledge of a horrific crime and still present a polished, even sympathetic, exterior. And it raises the question: if Wendi knew, how much of her behavior was guilt — and how much was survival inside a toxic family system?

Did Wendi Adelson Slip Up? Nervous Contradictions Caught on Tape The interrogation continues — and Wendi Adelson's answers only get stranger. In this segment, Tony, Stacy, and Todd pause and analyze as her story zig-zags through contradictions and defensive rambling. From insisting no one could want Dan Markel dead to suddenly floating multiple theories, her nervous energy fills the room. The team points out how her tone shifts depending on the question — at times defiant, at times almost childlike. They compare her to her mother, Donna, who also has a knack for spewing half-truths and denials whenever backed into a corner. Wendi's performance raises the same central question: is this just shock and trauma talking, or is she carefully trying to dodge what she knows? What makes this segment especially gripping is the blend of serious analysis with raw honesty about how anyone might behave under police pressure. The hosts even share their own experiences being interrogated for unrelated reasons, showing just how intimidating the process can be. But in Wendi's case, the nervous tangents and contradictions don't feel random — they feel like pieces of truth slipping out by accident. This isn't courtroom theater; it's the raw, messy, unfiltered first reaction of someone whose family would later be tied directly to a murder plot. And whether Wendi knew it or not, her words here would echo through the years of trials, appeals, and speculation that followed.

Donna Adelson's Appeal EXPOSED + Wendi Adelson's Interrogation — COMPLETE Breakdown! In this Hidden Killers Live special, we dedicate a full two hours to the unraveling of the Adelson family, breaking down Donna Adelson's desperate appeal and Wendi Adelson's unforgettable police interview. From the bizarre revelation that Donna's appeal lawyer operates out of a crematorium to the flimsy legal arguments her team is raising, nothing is off the table. The first half of this deep dive unpacks Donna Adelson's appeal step by step: juror TikTok posts, claims of judicial bias, and arguments about courtroom reactions. With sharp humor and hard analysis, Tony, Stacy, and Todd show how weak and desperate these defenses appear — and why the appeal is unlikely to succeed. Then the spotlight turns to Wendi Adelson. We revisit her initial police interview after the murder of Dan Markel, where her nervous rambling, contradictions, and bizarre tangents paint a disturbing picture. Did she know more than she was saying? Or was she simply overwhelmed? The team dissects every twist in her words, comparing her behavior to the controlling influence of her mother, Donna. Joining the discussion is psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, who offers expert insight into the psychology of the Adelson family. She examines both possibilities: what if Wendi knew, and what if she didn't? From compartmentalization and trauma to toxic family loyalty and control, Shavaun helps us understand the deeper forces that could have shaped Wendi's words and actions. The episode closes with a sobering discussion of the Adelson children — teenagers now — who have grown up under this cloud of murder, conspiracy, and family dysfunction. The psychological damage is clear, and the path forward is uncertain. This is the full 2 hour breakdown — bizarre, chilling, and absolutely riveting. If you've been following the Adelson case, you won't want to miss a minute.

In this Hidden Killers Live special, we dedicate a full two hours to the unraveling of the Adelson family, breaking down Donna Adelson's desperate appeal and Wendi Adelson's unforgettable police interview. From the bizarre revelation that Donna's appeal lawyer operates out of a crematorium to the flimsy legal arguments her team is raising, nothing is off the table. The first half of this deep dive unpacks Donna Adelson's appeal step by step: juror TikTok posts, claims of judicial bias, and arguments about courtroom reactions. With sharp humor and hard analysis, Tony, Stacy, and Todd show how weak and desperate these defenses appear — and why the appeal is unlikely to succeed. Then the spotlight turns to Wendi Adelson. We revisit her initial police interview after the murder of Dan Markel, where her nervous rambling, contradictions, and bizarre tangents paint a disturbing picture. Did she know more than she was saying? Or was she simply overwhelmed? The team dissects every twist in her words, comparing her behavior to the controlling influence of her mother, Donna. Joining the discussion is psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, who offers expert insight into the psychology of the Adelson family. She examines both possibilities: what if Wendi knew, and what if she didn't? From compartmentalization and trauma to toxic family loyalty and control, Shavaun helps us understand the deeper forces that could have shaped Wendi's words and actions. The episode closes with a sobering discussion of the Adelson children — teenagers now — who have grown up under this cloud of murder, conspiracy, and family dysfunction. The psychological damage is clear, and the path forward is uncertain. This is the full 2 hour breakdown — bizarre, chilling, and absolutely riveting. If you've been following the Adelson case, you won't want to miss a minute.

Wendi Adelson's Nervous Rambling to Police — What Does It Reveal?  In this segment, Hidden Killers Live rewinds to one of the earliest and most telling moments in the Dan Markel murder case: Wendi Adelson's very first police interview. The father of her children had just been gunned down, and police needed answers. What they got instead was a jumble of contradictions, tangents, and nervous oversharing. Tony, Stacy, and Todd watch closely as Wendi reacts to the devastating news. At first she insists everyone loved Dan, then pivots to pointing out his new girlfriend, oddly focusing on her looks. She waffles between denial and suspicion, almost as if she's scattering possibilities into the air to see what sticks. Her words don't land like those of a grieving ex-wife — they land like someone on edge, already trying to cover ground before accusations even surface. The hosts point out how immature some of Wendi's comments sound, especially for a law professor. From obsessing about appearances to nervously asking if she might be a suspect, Wendi's behavior raises questions that echo years later in court. Is this simply shock, or was she too close to the truth for comfort? This early interrogation clip lays the groundwork for everything that followed in the Adelson case, and the commentary digs deep into the psychology behind her answers. Was Wendi just overwhelmed by tragedy, or were these the first cracks in a carefully constructed facade?

If Wendi Adelson KNEW: Psychotherapist Breaks Down the Mind Games Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the conversation, bringing a professional lens to the question haunting the case: what if Wendi Adelson actually knew? In this segment, the team explores the psychology of complicity. Could Wendi's scattered interview responses reflect someone who was covering up knowledge of her family's role in Dan Markel's murder? Shavaun explains how people in enmeshed families often compartmentalize, splitting their lives into separate realities. On the outside, Wendi was a respected law professor and mother. But if she knew, privately she may have been carrying the weight of a devastating secret — one that fractured her identity into two halves. The discussion also highlights Donna Adelson's outsized role as a domineering, controlling matriarch. Raised in that environment, Wendi may have lacked the tools to assert independence. If she knew her family was involved, how could she have processed that truth while still functioning in her professional and public life? The conversation paints a chilling picture of how someone could live with knowledge of a horrific crime and still present a polished, even sympathetic, exterior. And it raises the question: if Wendi knew, how much of her behavior was guilt — and how much was survival inside a toxic family system?

Did Wendi Adelson Slip Up? Nervous Contradictions Caught on Tape The interrogation continues — and Wendi Adelson's answers only get stranger. In this segment, Tony, Stacy, and Todd pause and analyze as her story zig-zags through contradictions and defensive rambling. From insisting no one could want Dan Markel dead to suddenly floating multiple theories, her nervous energy fills the room. The team points out how her tone shifts depending on the question — at times defiant, at times almost childlike. They compare her to her mother, Donna, who also has a knack for spewing half-truths and denials whenever backed into a corner. Wendi's performance raises the same central question: is this just shock and trauma talking, or is she carefully trying to dodge what she knows? What makes this segment especially gripping is the blend of serious analysis with raw honesty about how anyone might behave under police pressure. The hosts even share their own experiences being interrogated for unrelated reasons, showing just how intimidating the process can be. But in Wendi's case, the nervous tangents and contradictions don't feel random — they feel like pieces of truth slipping out by accident. This isn't courtroom theater; it's the raw, messy, unfiltered first reaction of someone whose family would later be tied directly to a murder plot. And whether Wendi knew it or not, her words here would echo through the years of trials, appeals, and speculation that followed.

Donna Adelson spent years controlling every aspect of her family's life, but in the end, she became the very person who destroyed them. Once seen as the matriarch holding everything together, Donna was recently convicted of orchestrating the murder of her ex–son-in-law, Dan Markel. In this video, we dive deep into the mind of Donna Adelson—a woman who could have saved her family but instead chose a path that ultimately tore them apart. They had it all…until they decided to hire a hitman. Was it worth it? Who really wins when a family is built on lies, control, and crime?

Big Breakdown: The EVIDENCE That EXPOSED Donna Adelson's Evil! In this Big Breakdown from Hidden Killers, we take a deep dive into the evidence that finally exposed Donna Adelson's role in the murder-for-hire plot that claimed the life of Florida State law professor Dan Markel. For years, whispers swirled about the Adelson family's involvement, but it was the damning courtroom exhibits, wiretapped calls, and witness testimony that pulled the curtain back on the matriarch who prosecutors say orchestrated everything from behind the scenes. We revisit the infamous “day planner” containing Markel's license plate, the undercover “bump” that caught key conversations on tape, and the family phone calls that revealed the true scope of Donna's influence. From financial motives to her unrelenting drive to free Wendi Adelson from a custody battle, the trial's evidence painted a picture of manipulation, control, and ruthless calculation. Join Tony Brueski as we break down how the state built its case piece by piece — and why the jury believed Donna Adelson's fingerprints were all over this murder-for-hire plot. This is the evidence that turned suspicion into conviction, exposing the Adelson family's darkest secrets to the world.

In 2014, Florida State law professor Dan Markel was shot in his driveway in what prosecutors called a calculated murder-for-hire plot. Over the years, three people—including Donna Adelson's son, Charlie—were convicted for their roles. But investigators always believed the real mastermind was Donna herself. In September 2025, after nearly a decade of speculation, Donna Adelson finally stood trial. Prosecutors leaned on phone records, wiretaps, financial transfers, digital breadcrumbs, and even testimony from jailhouse informants to argue she orchestrated the killing. The defense insisted the evidence was circumstantial and that Donna was nothing more than a grieving grandmother. On September 4, 2025, a jury found Donna Adelson guilty on all counts. She now faces a mandatory life sentence without parole. This special episode of Forensic Tales breaks down the forensic evidence, courtroom drama, and the final verdict that brought the Adelson matriarch to justice. Learn more about your ad choices.

A Florida court convicted Dan Markel's former mother-in-law of first degree murder on Sept. 4 for the 2014 contract hit on the Canadian law professor. Markel, 41, was fatally shot in the head outside his Florida home by Latin gang members who his ex-wife's family had hired to execute him, while the couple was locked in a bitter custody battle over where their two sons should live. With Donna Adelson's guilty verdict, the American courts have now put five people associated with the murder behind bars, most of them locked away for life: Adelson, 75, the matriarch; Charles Adelson, her son, a dentist, convicted in 2023; also Adelson's former girlfriend, and the two killers. Markel's ex-wife Wendi has never been charged, and denies any involvement in the plot. Her parents were arrested two years ago at the Miami airport attempting to flee the United States to Vietnam, which has no extradition treaty. After their former in-law's three week trial ended, Markel's parents delivered victim impact statements, including wishing her a Jewish blessing that she should live to 120, alone in her jail cell. Ruth Markel joins host Ellin Bessner on today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast to recount the family's latest trial ordeal, and why she hopes her two teenaged grandsons will come to Canada.

With Donna Adelson convicted for the shocking murder of her ex-son-in-law Dan Markel, all eyes now shift to Wendi Adelson and her possible role in this brutal family crime. In this special STS episode, we hear from two men who knew Dan best: his divorce attorney Stephen Webster—one of the last people to ever speak to Dan before he was gunned down—and his former student-turned-attorney Louis Jean-Baptiste. Now law partners, the pair were first introduced by Dan himself, and they're coming together to reveal untold details about Dan's life, his battles with the Adelsons, and what may really have led to his murder.

Donna Adelson GUILTY: Courtroom Meltdown, Prison Reality & Why Wendi May Be Next This complete segment covers the full arc of a pivotal day in the Dan Markel murder case—from the moment a jury found Donna Adelson guilty on all counts, to the hard questions now circling Wendi Adelson. We start inside the courtroom on September 4, when the verdict was read and audible gasps followed. Donna's stunned reaction—described as the realization that the “chess game” was over—sets the tone for a sweeping analysis of consequence and next steps. With retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, we break down what a life sentence looks like for a 75-year-old high-profile inmate: notoriety risks, why protective segregation may be considered, how inmate dynamics and broken promises can shadow reputation, and why age offers little insulation behind bars. From there, the discussion turns to appeal prospects—particularly ineffective assistance of counsel—why such claims rarely win new trials, and why this strategy is more long-shot than lifeline. The second half pivots to the question driving true crime watchers: Is Wendi Adelson next? We unpack what prosecutors need to prove a conspiracy—the value of “overt acts,” timeline decisions, communications, and the significance of the “swimming” schedule change on the day Dan Markel was killed. We look at testimony tone (evasive “I don't remembers”), and why writing-class passages now surfacing online—cold, detached language about her ex-husband—could matter if charges are ever filed. Finally, the conversation widens to the human toll: the Markel grandparents' limited access to their grandchildren and the extraordinary steps required just to secure visits—an outcome that continues to resonate with audiences seeking justice and accountability. If you follow the Adelson trial, the Dan Markel case, or broader true crime and courtroom developments, this is your complete, fact-driven recap—part breaking news, part investigative podcast—designed to keep you fully informed on what just happened and what may come next.

As Donna Adelson faces life behind bars, attention now turns to her daughter, Wendi Adelson. Could she be the next member of the family charged in the conspiracy to kill Dan Markel? In this gripping segment, Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer explore the unanswered questions surrounding Wendi and whether prosecutors are preparing their case. We begin with speculation about Harvey Adelson, who appears less vulnerable legally, before shifting to the stronger case looming around Wendi. What are “overt acts” in a conspiracy charge, and how do prosecutors use them to build a case? From Wendi's sudden change of plans about a swimming trip on the day of the murder to her communications with Charlie Adelson, we examine how even subtle decisions can become crucial puzzle pieces. The conversation also highlights Wendi's evasive testimony — her repeated “I don't remembers” — and whether that strategy helps or hurts her in the long run. More troubling are her writing-class entries, now public, that paint a chillingly cold and detached view of her ex-husband. These revelations, combined with her mother's manipulation, may create a disturbing narrative that prosecutors could lean on if charges come. The fallout doesn't stop with Wendi. The Markel grandparents' heartbreaking fight to see their grandchildren, restricted for years while the Adelsons maintained custody, underscores the human toll of this case. Brueski and Coffindaffer unpack how the system allowed such injustice, and why this resonates so deeply with those following the trial. With every new detail, the case grows darker — from extortion risks behind bars to the possibility of new indictments. This segment leaves listeners with a haunting question: how far does the Adelson family's web of control and silence truly stretch?

 Is Wendy Adelson Next? Damning New Evidence in the Dan Markel Murder Plot With Donna Adelson convicted, attention is shifting to her daughter, Wendy. For years, Wendy has been at the center of speculation in the murder of her ex-husband, Dan Markel. Now, new testimony and text messages presented in court have raised even more questions about what she knew — and when. In this segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Bob Motta analyzes the evidence that could put Wendy in the crosshairs of prosecutors. From Luis Rivera's testimony tying her closer to the plot, to her suspiciously timed drive-bys of the crime scene, to her immunity agreements on the witness stand — the pieces are stacking up. The panel debates whether prosecutors now have enough to move forward with charges against Wendy. Is she a co-conspirator, or was she shielded by the actions of her family? And what role will her prior sworn testimony play if she's brought to trial? This case is far from over. With each new trial, more evidence surfaces, and Wendy's actions look increasingly difficult to explain away.

The Adelson Family Fallout: What Did Harvey Know & Who's Next to Face Justice? With Donna Adelson convicted and Wendy under growing scrutiny, one question remains: what about Harvey Adelson? The patriarch of the family sat silently through his wife's trial, his face betraying little. But how much did he know about the plot to murder Dan Markel? And how much responsibility does he bear for the fallout now consuming his family? In this segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Bob Motta joins to explore Harvey's role and the broader implications for the Adelson family. Was he a passive bystander, or did he knowingly enable the conspiracy? Did he simply turn a blind eye to his wife and children's actions, or was he part of the planning from the beginning? The conversation also examines the devastating impact on the Markel family, who continue to fight for access to Dan's children, as well as the systemic issues exposed by the case. The Adelson saga is not just about on e murder — it's about power, control, and the lengths some families will go to in order to maintain both.

Ellen Greenberg Mystery & Donna Adelson Verdict: Shocking True Crime Revelations In this powerful edition of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we dive deep into two of the most disturbing and high-profile true crime cases in America today. First, we revisit the mysterious death of 27-year-old Philadelphia teacher Ellen Greenberg. Found with 20 stab wounds, including multiple to the back of her neck and head, Ellen's death was inexplicably ruled a suicide. We walk through her final day, analyze her fiancé Sam Goldberg's infamous 911 call, examine the suspicious door lock evidence, and highlight the shocking failures in the police investigation — including the lack of fingerprinting and the rushed apartment cleanup. With political pressure and prosecutorial pass-offs stretching this case out for 14 years, the Greenberg family is still demanding the justice that's been denied to them for more than a decade. Then we turn to Florida, where the Adelson family saga has rocked the true crime world. Donna Adelson has now been convicted in the murder-for-hire plot that ended the life of Florida State law professor Dan Markel. With the guilty verdict in place, the spotlight shifts to her daughter Wendy and husband Harvey. Were they active participants, silent enablers, or simply too close to walk away? Defense attorney and podcaster Bob Motta joins the discussion to analyze Donna's trial, Wendy's damning testimony, and Harvey's passive presence as the family unravels under the weight of the conspiracy. From Philadelphia to Tallahassee, these stories reveal what happens when justice is delayed, when evidence is ignored, and when family power and connections are wielded against the truth. Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and demand accountability with us.
