Wendi Adelson Testifies in Brother's Hitman Conspiracy Murder Trial - Full Testimony Part Two

Wendi Adelson, the ex-wife of the murdered Florida college professor Dan Markel, takes the stand and testifies in her brother’s murder trial October 26th-27th. Wendi Adelson eventually decided to end her marriage with her ex-husband, causing some tension when it came to the custody of their children. When the couple split, brother Charlie Adelson made a joke that getting Wendi a TV was cheaper than hiring hitmen. Prosecutors believe that Charlie Adelson hired multiple hitmen to murder Markel in order to regain custody of the kids they shared.

[@MsAsjak]

They want to portait her as unaware of that bringing up all this activities will try to make her look like she didn't plan to move to Florida.

[@aalegalfocus]

She was already living in Florida-- Tallahassee-- and she and her family desperately wanted her and the children to be able to move to south Florida.

@@Hanover-ek4jy well, let’s see he used his money with Staples which everybody knew how he packs his money. His sister threw him under the bus by saying he was gonna hire a hitman.

I see how you did that.

[@kaila288]

Even though the police told her over and over that this was a targeted attack, they had no reason to believe anyone was after her or the boys(because her family orchestrated the hit) she needs to look like the perpetual victim so the jury and audience would feel sorry for her…. It also gives her a “legitimate” reason to disrupt those boys lives even more be leaving the only home and place they knew for their safety….. she is truly a piece of work. It was also explained over and over again that the Markels did not try to take her children and put them in foster care, they wanted to guarantee that they were always protected… how dare they but again it’s a way for her to garner sympathy…

[@Hello-ig1px]

well, he's not guilty, we can't go around convicting people of murder with this kind of absolute minimalistic circumstantial evidence. there is no way he is going to be guilty, their evidence is not convincing at all. its essentially the prosecutor saying, THEIR WHOLE FAMILY IS GUILTY, TRUST ME BRO.

Did Wendi play the victim to her family so much and so dramatically that the family decided to kill Dan.

[@hollyhill2045]

They left Tallahassee a couple of days later and never once talked to law enforcement after her original statement, not even to ask if they had any updates on the case. This was the murder of her children's father. To me, she is the mastermind.
