How Wendi Adelson is tied to family "code word" for murder

[@freya6941]

I think she was hoping Jeff would be arrested and she’d be able to say how upset he was about their breakup, how angry he was about how Dan treated her, and how she told him about this bad joke about the TV and hitman that he must have acted on. Once arrested as a suspect it’s super hard to change the direction of a police investigation. She really did try to set this poor guy up, so sad as he fell for this awful woman.

Yes. Wendi was also very jealous of Dan’s girlfriend. I believe that is one of her motive to murder Dan.

On the morning of the 18th - the TV guys being booked by Donna was code for 'the hit is 100% going to happen today'. Doubled as a warning to avoid physical contact with Dan in order to avoid being caught up in any 'crossfire'. She would have to know - in order to keep herself and the boys safe from either witnessing or being inadvertently injured or catching a stray bullet. The TV was code for sure.

@@johnmahoney3566 I know! The entire family is innocent of having Dan Markel silenced before he gets his ex Wife disbarred for lies and fraud and Donna having only supervised visits with the two children she is attempting to alienate from him.

This means the state intended to arrest Charlie back in 2016, but did not, leaving his case file open without official charges. The Adelsons have been protected by state attorneys and judges all of this time.

Wendi is confident that she will never be charged. She, in my opinion, is not innocent. I believe she is the mastermind. I do not believe she will sit on the sideline. She hated Dan. No way will she take the back seat. No way was she clueless.

[@ritaeichler2066]

True,but thats not enough evidence to tie her to the murder & convict her . They dont have Wendie linked to the 'bump ' nor any phone, text or pay off money tying her to the actual act of conspiracy, or solicitation like they have on Donna. TV code or not is NOT murder 1.

Donna is proud of her daughter's acting skills and calls upon her to use them. Donna is confident that Wendi’s performance will save them. So far she is wrong. Wendi is guilty IMO.

Carl, another person for consideration is Tamra Demko. She was a Harvard grad who was a "neutral" friend of both Dan and Wendi. Her police interview shortly after the murder could be an example of more evidence the prosecution may use. Thank you for your constant effort to present just the facts.

[@angelalandgrebe6930]

[@thelmadickinson6811]

Of course she knew about the plan. Her “surprise” at finding out at Charlie’s trial that Charlie knew the entire time about who murdered Dan and never told her in the past 10 years or I’m the past 3 trials of Katie and the murders, was not believable “shock”. She may not have pulled the trigger but she knew of a plan and took part in the plan. Her mom and dad trying to flee the country shows they too were involved. I hope she is shaking in her shoes and doesn’t know a days peace. It’s what she deserves for the bell she had put Dan’s family through.

[@debbieaustin7072]

Well said

[@marypatterson5189]

Another great discussion. Carl, would be the type of prosecutor, crime victims would want pursuing justice. Not leaving one stone unturned, following up on all leads, going deep, including acts of omissions.

[@MarkEnriquez1971]

As Georgia has said in closing arguments of Katherine Magbanua’s trial, “The motive is clear, it’s undisputed that the divorce between Wendi Adelson and Dan Markel was a particularly nasty one…….”. Wendi had the motive. The tv is clearly code. Donna’s emails to her corroborate her involvement with their HATRED for Dan and that they needed to defeat “Jibbers”. ANY INNOCENT PARENT would immediately call the other parent when viewing the yellow police tape, IMMEDIATELY. But she doesn’t. She tells investigator that she wasn’t sure if she was a suspect in the car ride even though she hadn’t been told Dan was shot until she got to the police station. Fake crying in the interrogation. But Georgia knows these details and more, she left no stone unturned. The father of a woman’s children does not get murdered by the ex in-laws UNLESS the mother of those children authorizes the hit. These circumstances against wendi are overwhelming. This is the definition of a circumstantial case where all provable circumstances point to wendi. They had less circumstantial evidence against Scott Peterson and he got convicted.

[@MM-qp4pd]

What about dahlia dipolito?they had actual video of her hiring the hitman. It took three trials to find her guilty

[@eloise22422]

Well thousands of inmates are in prison based on circumstantial evidence. So I think it will be rather easy to convict her. She does not present herself well. No remorse for Dan even if she didn’t have anything to do with it. Knowing her poor kids are left without their father. That doesn’t bother her at all. Plus changed their name to her family name that murdered their father. She thinks she’s so slick

[@bonjovirocks24]

@MM-qp4pd - Dalia was found guilty during her first trial. She was able to get a mistrial after, with the help of a “celebrity lawyer” she was sleeping with. He “won” the appeal for a mistrial with his crooked connections in the DOJ, saying her brother’s cousin’s neighbor was the teacher of the judge’s step son. Absolutely disgusting, as the evidence as you mentioned was overwhelming.

Thank you Carl. On the geek squad: the guy showed up too early for her, and the TPD interview notes she was upset that the TV couldn’t be fixed. The guy told TPD that she started texting her brother while he was still there. She was likely upset at losing her alibi before the murder and tried to delay him. I wonder if she texted him on What’s App?? Georgi keeps asking her if she had What’s App. They found an 18 minute call to Charlie, but I heard nothing about a text to him. She needed to tell Charlie her alibi was leaving and get some guidance how to cover herself. I’m sure this is when she made a plan to log onto her computer, send emails, and call all kinds of friends including someone in the UK. She did say she “would have used What’s App to call a friend in another country” if she had it back then. Apparently she did. 🤣

She knew she could not match wits with Dan’s brilliance! And so she snuffed out his life and future. She ended all his physical relationships here on earth. She will be next. Charlie will flip. He’s over helping his sister.

[@Elizabeth.C.Holmes]

@FixingOurFamilyCourts I agree. It probably burned her that Dan's credentials, experience, and training were on such a high level, something she wanted and thought she had. He ran circles around her in the legal field. I commend him for wanting the marriage to work but when it didn't, he moved on and came out with both guns a blazing to take care of his boys. Soon Wendi will be wearing orange and manipulating others in prison to get soap, shampoo, chocolate, etc.

[@MM-qp4pd]

I can see Wendi watching the body language videos about her, then going in front of the mirror practicing her breathing and blink rates, hand gestures etc for hours and hours. I have yet to see the performance of her life!

[@bonjovirocks24]

@MM-qp4pd - Head tilt like the RCA dog, parted lips, no blinking like a space alien & saying to herself, “I look innocent”. Yes, she definitely practiced this in the mirror.

[@vernareed2692]

I think wa threw up because she had not eaten, and had drunk too much alcohol,maybe drank in celebration of Dan's murder! Although she had said she "doesn't drink"!! That she didn't know about what kind of liquor she was told to buy!! HA !! Maybe she said she threw up at the table to be more "dramatic"!!

[@vernareed2692]

​@@Elizabeth.C.Holmesright!! She thought it would crush him when she up and left him,took so much, and when it didn't work,he moved on even had a nice girlfriend that was looking serious,she couldn't stand it!!

[@danahsutton101]

Thank you for your insight. I thought that was a strange coincidence that the TV joked about was being looked at by the Geek Squad at the time Dan was being shot.

[@dorenecollins833]

Hi Carl, I am so glad to hear from you. I look forward to listening to what you have to say! Thank you Carl and John

[@patricia9863]

This family was so odd. A thousand other scenarios would have been a better defense than the broken TV scam. Also wasn't she marking some papers on line that morning. Isn't there a record of when she logged on and logged off? Why does she look like she was going to do some gardening rather than meeting friends for lunch? Seems odd for someone so concerned about her appearance. Lock them all up.

[@jupeter24]

"Seems odd for someone so concerned about her appearance" She must've been really stressed, IMO it was reflection of her mental state.

[@MonGeezy]

EXCELLENT VIDEO, Carl! Keep the great content coming

[@dancemad1000]

Great episode, Carl. Thank you!

[@Shines-On]

New subscriber! I saw your thumbnail and saw that it’s the exact topic I’ve been waiting to see from an attorney. I could have listened all day on the reasons Wendi should be arrested. Great job even though you didn’t make the slides. So yeah, I’m going to go watch some of your other videos. Can’t wait to see the video with the psychologist. ❤

[@judyD.]

There's a video of A Hundred reason Wendi was involved.

Yes, I would suggest subscribing to this channel

[@mikebetrippin]

She wanted Jeffrey to be her witnesss that the TV was damaged so when she called The Geek Squad to come over to repair the TV, her "alibi" would be solid. But, she drove by the crime scene. Then, pretended she didn't know anything in the interview room. Then, she called two people who she knows hates Dan to give them the sad news. She thought Jeff was going to offer to be her hitman, but when he didn't take the bait and fall for her crocodile tears, or sob stories, she tried to set him up.

[@salliegallegos918]

Exactly. Also, she probably puked in the restaurant, or faked puking in the restaurant, to make a scene and draw public attention to how distraught she was pretending to be, saying she hadn’t eaten in a month.

[@katrinat.3032]

@@salliegallegos918 Yeah and after she didn’t eat for a month she went to a restaurant and ordered sushi! 🤢

[@Globelle]

I remember or I believe I remember Jeffrey offering to buy a new one as well. I find it ironic that she would wait so long to have it repaired or replaced. Also she and her family could easily afford a new one. Wendi is so selfish in so many ways even before she and her family had Dan murdered

[@WvBeurden2222]

They so needed that alibi for Wendi that morning!📺

[@endthe.1percent]

Very good analysis. Putting together a great circumstantial case against Wendi

[@ricjones6861]

Great investigated work Carl! Could you please investigate the trial videos where Katie goofed up by telling the assassins that this job is needed to done for “the lady who has kid’s, because her ex is making her life miserable”. I personally think that these videos from Charlie and Kati’s trial show that Wendi had been involved from the get go!

[@katrinat.3032]

I believe you are referring to Luis Rivera’s interview with the police, when he flipped

[@Lawesome-ef9hj]

I believe Wendi confided in Lacasse about the hitman joke in an effort to get some sort of reaction or response from Lacasse that she could later use against him, maybe to say that Lacasse got the idea of doing it from the “joke” Wendi repeated.

[@Globelle]

The Adelsons son's believe they were so superior to the police and prosecution in Tallahassee. I firmly believe they never thought it would come back on them.

[@lilibethvilella]

[@josimpson7999]

Wendi has to be a serious psychopath. So many signposts of her giving the middle finger to the judiciary; the owl T shirt, the Bullet Bourbon, the insistence on watching a broken TV, the repeated jokes about the TV/hitman, so many coincidences/convenient occurrences - she’s laughing her head off. Sick, sick woman (entire family!). How can anyone think she’s not involved?

[@glennjones6574]

What does the owl T-shirt represent?

[@josimpson7999]

@@glennjones6574 Luis Rivera posted a picture of an owl on FB when they went to Tallahassee to murder DM - his accomplice made him take it down - but not before it was clocked! WA wore an owl T-shirt the day the murder took place when she was interviewed by the police.

[@faticus5369]

She’s been getting over on everyone her entire life. Those blues eyes, big chest, and entitlement fueled this behavior.

[@sergueymelnikov7977]

Donna saying on a phone call with Charlie “this TV will cost about 5” was one of their many giveaways. Ironically, they got busted in the very same fashion as Germans with their Enigma code that should consistently praise Hitler at the end of each message

[@cathybenadaro]

Another thing is why would Wendi call Charlie about the tv,when he was in Miami,and she was 6 hours north,in Tallahassee? She had plenty of money to buy a new one.I agree that the repair guy was an alibi,to distance herself from the crime.

[@JackieOlantern]

The biggest red flag is all of them making such a big deal about repairing this tiny, inexpensive TV. They ALL had plenty of money and could have replaced it immediately. Jeff even offered but Wendi wasn’t having it. I guarantee you those boys didn’t break that TV. It’s a shame no one could have asked them right after Dan was murdered…. They would have blown the entire TV lie up in my opinion.

[@lizdahl847]

​@@JackieOlanternBest question is why is Wendi, the smart ass lawyer having to check with her family about repairing or replacing a TV. This is not an earth shattering decision that needs the Adelson family approval. Another big red flag and very sus😮😮

[@demiloca]

Charlie said in jailhouse calls this is an inefficient alibi and therefore no alibi. But one of Wendi’s strategies is to do exactly what a guilty person would not do: 1. Make a joke about a hit man on the morning of, 2. Drive by the crime scene, 3. Schedule a repair that could be changed. So that’s exactly what she did, thinking to herself it’s brilliant… only an innocent person would do these “coincidences” and subpar alibi. But what guilty person would schedule geek squad on morning of hit? What guilty person would say Charlie and her parents? Alibi still works for her purposes. But I think the tv is less alibi than it is a cover to explain why they all have to communicate that morning. And there are so many contradictory statements Wendi makes that I can’t imagine her immunity agreement would hold. Wendi made two calls to her mother. I’ll bet the first non-answer was actually Wendi hanging up as code that she was going to be calling from police station.

[@Yyc237]

Exactly. They're all rich. Geek squad will bring you a tv, install it and get rid of the bad tv.

[@december1008]

@@lizdahl847 Exactly. Making a big deal out of nothing. In one of the phone calls from jail between Charlie and Donna, Charlie thought that a better alibi would have been for Wendi to be at the spa or something like that. Now that he's sitting in jail, he has plenty of time to think. Charlie, it's time to flip!

[@dorenecollins833]

Carl, I could listen to you every day. I know that’s a lot to ask from you but I really could.. I love listening to your perspective from a prosecutors point of view. Sending you and John my very best from Pennsylvania, USA.

Carl, you have more credibility to a large number of legal pros who have Adelson Markel content.

[@granthubick8684]

Television sets have not been repaired in-home for decades. People raised in the 40's-60's were familiar with tv repairmen. Donna and Harv would believe "waiting for the tv repairman" sounds sensible in this day and age. This points to the complicity of each of the Adelsons in this murderous plot.

I think Wendi repeated the joke because she wanted to make sure it s everyone know it s her brother hired the hit men, not her. She was nervous they suspected her. .

[@doneldamacdonnell8602]

She didn’t want anyone to go in that other room bc it was full of packed boxes. She knew she was leaving as soon as Dan was dead. And she wasn’t taking the TV anyway. No need to get it repaired or replaced. It had served its purpose.
