@@letolethe3344 … I understand. She does have a prissy face, and probably has NEVER been held accountable. She really thinks she’s outsmarted everyone. But just like the face of Ted Bundy, women fell for his sweet looking face. That’s how psychopaths get away with murder. What I mean is people can’t judge a book by its cover. The same with faces.

[@angelonearth555]

Wendi is convinced the State of Florida will never arrest her. In the wake of Donna’s arrest, I truly believe Wendi’s time is finally coming. Also, very telling to see that whenever she doesn’t want to admit something that may incriminate her, she conveniently can’t remember. She does this consistently. I also counted at least 5 lies.

[@marshapieroni6677]

I'm comparing her answers to the same questions asked in all 3 trials. I have noticed even more that she rarely says yes or no. She says things like, "that sounds right", or "that's not likely", and of course "I don't remember"

[@Globelle]

I sure pray!!

[@BendoKing]

She doesn't just say yes or no when examined by the prosecution. She only says yes or no when examined by mostly Charlies defence... What she's doing is mirroring. She does a lot of mirroring and a lot of hypnosis-enducing type behaviour. She thinks she's hypnotic but really she's grotesque. As for the prosecution of Wendi... Look, Donna didn't come for Charlie either did Harvey they both ditched him at trial. Wendi didn't just ditch him she threw him right under the bus both to Lacasse and to police and others, watch Charlie's face as these facts are made clear in his trial lol I'm 99% positive this all indicates that Charlie Adelson will make a deal with the state to give up Wendi as the mastermind. This may be his only way out of prison. I actually believe he will testify against his mother and Wendi because Donna only has a short life expectancy really so he won't care too much to throw her under the bus and as for his testimony in both cases he'll get a reduced penalty most likely he'll serve 15 years. After all, Rivera only got an extra 5 years added to his sentence he was already serving and he was a crucial part of the hit, he was there when Dan Markel was fatally injured he drove the car so whilst the funding of the murder is more important as without it there is no murder for the state they'd love to wrap this up with some brilliant evidence to give us all a big smile and I believe that's the ticket they want. Charlie loves himself, there's just no way hes going to throw away any chance of sleeping with some shiela or living his Maestro lifestyle on the outside he just isn't going to throw away the chance even of 1 day of freedom so even if he gets a 30 year non parole period he'll still have 20-30 years of freedom if he gives up Wendi even just Wendi without Donna I believe he'll do that. Once Donna got arrested all those 30+ hours a week of calls between Charlie and her will be widdled down to a few letters a week if even that's allowed considering they're probably restricted from speaking now so those family ties will evaportate. Wendi wouldn't be visiting him, she's too scared they will arrest her and keep her behind the bars lol so the connection between Charlie and Wendi is evaporating also & this was only done to benefit her lol there's no way a narcissist like Charlie wouldn't try to first defend his case thinking he's the BS master but now that's done he's not finished he's not going to throw it all away for this bucket of wet Sorghum with her fake blue eyes and her continuous lies and fabrications.

[@giorvannal4088]

For sure

[@Franciscasieri]

​@BendoKing my God... Let's take what you said apart piece by piece... 1) Charlie's best case scenario is a reduction to Life with the possibility...and that choice will eliminate forever his chance at the unlikely event of a higher court overturning his conviction. 2) if he flips on Wendi he also flips on his mother? 3) he is so narcissistic he actually believes he was wronged by the system because his ridiculous story at trial was quickly dismissed in 4 hours. 4) you expand on an uninformed premise that is so unlikely because you believe it could happen...kind of like Charlie believing whatever pops into his brain

It’s petty, but when asked by the judge the spelling of the belittling nickname she gave Dan, (he asked if it was “jibbers” or “gibbers”) she said she’d never spelled out it out, but that those could be ways to spell it. The lawyer asked “Did you have Dan’s name in your phone as J-i-b-b-e-r-s.” and Wendy responded “yes.” She was also asked if she knew Katherine, and she indicated not very well, but recalled going to the beach with her once. She was shown a photo of that time, and confirmed that the person in the photo, “that is Katie.” Who short names or nicknames someone they don’t know?

I just don't see that happening. Her family will swear to their dying day she knew nothing about it. They will say that Charlie took 100% initiative on his own and never told her because he knew she would talk him out of it (or something like that). She didn't pay for it, she had no contact with the killers, there's no shred of anything to even hint she knew beforehand. If the DA tries to claim she dropped hints or professed misery constantly in hopes Charlie would act, that's not a crime. it was not reckless disregard, for instance, of what might happen, because no one expects your local periodontist to be a killer. And yes, I know she conspired, her activities that day were too well orchestrated, my point is she's too slick and her family too loyal for her to ever be convicted of anything. I hope I'm wrong. But juries can't vote to convict just because they know it in their bones, or she makes their skin crawl, there has to be some evidence. I'm not sure the DA could even get an indictment, she's that good. I hope the boys never figure it out, just knowing your uncle killed your father must be traumatic enough.

It's disturbing that everyone is already condemning her & convinced of such a serious accusation with no concrete proof Psalms 1-41 Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. 2But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night. 3They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind. 5They will be condemned at the time of judgment.

@@rayray8687 What you suggest is not a threat to Adelson. Magbanua facing life in prison, changing stories and trying to implicate Adelson would have absolutely no credibility, and it would be uncorroborated accomplice testimony in the first place.

[@rayray8687]

slyjokerg: Let’s go a step further to say that Katie Magbanua is actually facing a potential death sentence, especially considering she is charged with “soliciting” a murder over and above the 1st degree murder and conspiracy charges that convicted Sigfredo Garcia. In her first trial with Mr Garcia, 10 of 12 jurors found her guilty. She’s hanging by a thread and is held in protective custody for good reason. Somebody ordered this murder and if she didn’t, jurors will want to know who did. If Katie flips she will implicate Charlie Adelson and that is already corroborated by Luis Rivera’s testimony which a former jury already believed. If she doesn’t flip and is convicted, it’s the same thing - the jury believes Luis’s testimony and they don’t believe Katie’s. Following the motive and the money, a vote for Charlie indicates a vote for Wendi and one for Donna too. Luis Rivera told a believable tale in his plea deal and it worked out pretty good for him. A jury believed him 12-0 in one case and 10-2 in the other. It won’t take much to tip the scales and I imagine Ms Magbanua is well aware of this...or she will be by the time the prosecutors are done with her. So keep in mind these things: - Katie is the key to the entire murder conspiracy - Katie is almost a “dead woman walking” no matter what she does - Florida does carry out executions, but so did whoever ordered Dan Markel!s murder and that person won’t hesitate to order another one - Katie has nothing to lose and a whole lot to gain by flipping Katie’s next court date is Dec 05/20 to set a trial date for next year. Let’s see how it goes.

Hopefully, Benjamin and Lincoln MARKEL will one day watch every video from this trial and never see an Adelson again. Except their estranged Uncle Robert (Wendi and Charlie’s older brother) who removed himself from this vicious, evil family.

[@laurahendrick4759]

This woman is unbelievable she’s lying and 100% guilty her actions are so very fake and manipulative she danced around every question horrible I do believe. Her children will see this and distance themselves once old enough

[@blacklilith7480]

And what irritated me the most was that false facial expression that she gives throughout the testimony..like she had practiced it at home, so she can look unfazed..

[@jackbryan4676]

5:56 All the little slips are telling... Wendi doesn't say "we" lived in Tallahassee, she says "I" lived in Tallahassee. Every fiber of her being is committed to Dan's complete erasure.

FSU Law Professor Murder Trial Day 2 Witness: Wendi Adelson Testifies - Law and Crime Network. 32:53 Prosecutor Cappleman : "Was Mr Markel planning to leave town the day after he was murdered ?" Wendi J A : "I believe he was ". This is critical to her involvement. As LR and SG got a message to this effect from KM (that the last day to execute him was the Friday ) as they sat in the car in the park on the Thursday after the presence of WJA outside the house spooked them on Thurs July 17th 2014. We have only Luiz Rivera's sworn testimony on that . KM has never come clean on any of it - who knows - at the retrial which is imminent, this matter may come up again . The only way KM would know this is the path WJA to CJA to KM. Only someone close to D Markel in Tallahassee would know this. Wendi would know because of the childcare arrangements.

She sits up on the witness stand appearing giddy at times due to all the attention and when the word wealthy comes up she lights up like a Christmas tree - sociopathic narcissist is the vibe she puts out.

Wendi: "I did NOT visit the crime scene" Prosecutor: "You did not pull up to the crime scene tape on Truscott Drive?" Wendi: "NO! I saw some sort of tape or obstruction so I didn't turn" - How could she have seen the tape if she wasn't there? We're not buying what you're selling honey. Interesting when the Prosecutor showed her a photo of Dan's house with the car still in the garage Wendi doesn't even flinch. Dude, your husband's dead body was right there! How can you not react to that?

[@migz121]

Exactly ‼️ And she cried for hours in the police interrogation room when she first learned "Danny" was murdered. Yet, "Danny" was horrible to her‼️ We are not buying your BS ‼️😤

[@shadxcruz]

She’s being difficult and saying she doesn’t know how you spell jibbers, but it was in her phone...she’s a liar!

[@kenmat1]

She's simply saying she's not sure of the exact spelling of the word. The way she spelled it in her phone doesn't mean it's the correct spelling.

[@theresaevans2072]

[@Ena48145]

@@kenmat1 Entirely false. She said she didn't know if she had ever written it out. You're telling me she doesn't recall seeing her ex/husband's derogatory name in her phone under the calls and texts every day and recalling that she was the one who put it in there? Lol ok.

[@beautifulrosemary6565]

There's a difference, what she said was in response to how it's spelled and she stated it can be spelled with a j or a g but with no certainty. Just because she spells it a certain way doesn't mean that's accurate. Like Luis spelling his name Lius... you guys are really trying it with wendy. I don't think you all have common sense. It's not what you know but what you can prove. 👩🏾‍⚖

At least Jodi Arias knew she was in a serious situation. This one has no clue just because she had not been charged. In any case, who would be smiling like that when their brother had just been arrested for murder? Some screws are missing.

​@@tiahbawa5771probably trying to appear pleasant. JodinArias knew she took photos of herself committing the crime so she had zero choice but to remain somber.
