- Donna Adelson, the Adelson family matriarch accused of plotting her former son-in-law’s murder, appeared before a Leon County judge Tuesday morning. Adelson was arrested at the Miami International Airport after purchasing a one way ticket to Vietnam with her husband. Earlier this month, her son, Charlie Adelson, was convicted for the murder scheme that killed former Florida State University law professor Dan Markel.

All of this because a man wanted to be a father to his children 😢
Sick !!
Yes, unfortunately.
I know Donna wanted family to move to Miami but she could have rented a house in Tallahassee no reason to murder Dan so ironic she is now in Tallahassee and has lost her sunshines; but Dan still had litigation ongoing that would harm Wendi so Donna decided only his death would end the cases. But they could have hired better attorneys for Wendi instead they are wasting millions on murder defense and she ruined lives of the Markels and the grandsons
Sinful, but they are paying.. Collarel damage is the two boys..So sick...
Exactly,,🥲
To all intents and purposes her life - certainly as she previously knew it - is over.
What a horrible way to spend your last few years on earth. ZERO sympathy.
Josimpson - I know right. I just retired and is great being at home. By the time I'm her age I just want to relax in my home and travel and take it day-by-day and enjoy family
I need all my comforts, all around me. 😊
@@preciousgem6506how does she have a public defender?!?!
@@kevinjohnson3521 She just got transferred to Tallahassee so she has time to hire and attorney from that area and has a Public Defender til then.
You are so right
Imagine you've lived your life to 70+; only to crash out because your ego couldn't take the hit of you son in law getting 50/50 custody.
Wendi needed her mama..they are ll sick, the whole family..
When Danny requested the courts for supervised granny visits that was the nail in his coffin
I rarely enjoy seeing people go to jail...but I must admit this melts my heart to see her all shackled up!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like the connected handcuffs and the ankle shackle shimmy.
I rarely drink wine, but I actually poured me a glass of Merlot...at 11:30 am today...after seeing the killer, Donna, in those beautiful handcuffs!
The smug look on her face says it all. She has NO REMORSE
I admire her for that.
@@dandydon6049 You shouldn’t. It’s that same smug look that will get her a life sentence. She has no remorse, and it shows.
I don't think the Adelsons 'do' remorse 😅
I have been thinking the same thing! She actually seems to be smiling!
Smug? Maybe she will stand up and ask, "you want the truth, you can't handle the truth. I have fault for everything I have, so bring it on Tallahassee, bring it."
Family bonds are important, so hopefully Wendi will soon be able to spend a lot of time with her mom.
LOL!
Cheers to Grandma Markel! May she ve blessed in her quest for COMPLETE justice in the murder of her son!!
the Markels are amazing people and I pray they get to be with their grandsons to show them they have a great heritage and help them start their lives over
If the fool had taken the million dollars, he’d still be alive.
Amen Amen Amen ❤🎉
@@dandydon6049 You gotta have mental issues to say some s***like that.
@@kitasmith5238 It’s true
Imagine going from a home in Miami with some insane thread count sheets to government issued clothing and the joys of going to the bathroom with an audience and having to endure other people who you would never even acknowledge. Sleeping in a room with others on a steel bed and plastic mat. For the rest of her life she will only have food to eat that wouldn’t be fed to farm animals. No maid service, no fine restaurants and the only time she will leave is in a caged bus with others who more than likely aren’t particular about their personal hygiene. All this because her son in law said something that offended her. Just desserts.
With a narcissist, that's all it takes to go ape s#$% crazy....a minor offense, a perceived wrong, a slight insult etc etc.
Great summary. You nailed it! I chuckled about the insane thread count sheets and personal hygiene and food that wouldn't be fed to farm animals....well, ok, i chuckled at it all! Madness. Seriously like Joel from Surviving the Survivor - I'm petrified of jail/prison. How is it not a deterrent? I'm 50 and I still don't get it. I guess I never will. I love my freedom. Imagine - never driving or drinking alcohol ever again. No waaaay
I can't
Totally agree with you 😊😊😊
Donna Adelson Is Without Doubt One Of The Most Sociopathic, Evil, And Soul-Less Females I Have Ever Seen In Any Court Video...Definitely Within The Top-Five Worst.
Hello Wendi, we know you lurk around these chats…
Remember, no statute of limitations on murder. Imagine going through every day, being infamous and highly recognizable, likely worrying that your every conversation or text or post is being scrutinized by experts whose singular goal is to get justice for the man you had murdered.
She probably doesn’t have much of a conscience, but I hope there are intrusive memories of Dan’s crime scene photos, Charlie’s face as he heard his verdict, and her sons’ reactions to learning that they will never see their daddy again at ages 3 and 5.
I hope these thoughts plague her dreams as well as her waking hours. Right Wendi?
Tick…tock…tick…tock…
Better watch out!
''It's not my family!'' - Wendi.
No decent man will go within 100 miles of dear Wendi…
And changing your son’s names back would be merciful, but we know you have no mercy Wendi
Dan's children will know what she is eventually.
What a sad life she gave the whole entire family forever. This will never be forgotten no matter how much justice they get.
Who’s gonna care in a hundred years.
@@dandydon6049 grandkids maybe "Um, our great grandmother died in jail for a murder conviction?"
@@keithn4395 great great great grandmother 😂
@@dandydon6049 The evil or good that people do live after them, crimes that were committed fifty or more years ago are being solved with genealogy today, do you want to take that chance?
This murder story will pass on for generations at thanks giving dinner.
Don’t worry, your daughter is going to be your roommate I mean your cellmate😂,
Hahahahaha
😀😃😄
You really think they're gonna charge her daughter? Even know she received immunity for testifying?
@@sheriefcassis3268Yes
@@sheriefcassis3268 that law will change tonight at 12 midnight just for her🥴special circumstances 🤔🤣🤣
Poor Donna, no more Botox treatments, no more Mani Pedi’s, no more blonde hair dye, can’t wait to see her in court with grey hair. That’s if she makes it to court, highly doubtful in jail for over one year?? She’ll never get to court. And the best part is Wendy is suffering. Seeing her mother behind bars, she will never see her a free woman again. Was it worth it Wendy?
I doubt Wendy really cares.
I think ‘the Don’ is stronger than we’d naturally imagine - I see a strong, hard, defiant woman whose, probably, only regret in this matter is that their plan wasn’t more fool proof & they got caught.
I see zero of botox
Filler nada
Shes too gorgeous she thinks to ever need those things!
Lol
Not
I always hate controlling women
Exactly. Look at Lori Daybell after just 30 days she was unrecognizable. She had aged 20+ years. Grandma Corleone Is going to give us all a very shocking appearance. And we’re living for it.😂
I'm really not a mean or vindictive person but it warms the cockles of my heart to see Donna shuffle in with leg chains and her new bangle bracelets. GUILTY!!!!
She’s so thin, those chains have to hurt.
Not mean or vindictive? You could have fooled me Lana. I’ll bet you don’t even know the Markels.
@@dandydon6049 I know that the Markel’s son was killed by this family of monsters! Charlie has already been convicted, and his evil mother, who is one of the masterminds of this plot is about to go down as well. The good Lord, willing Wendi will be next, and then Harvey. I’m sorry, but I have no sympathy for Miss Donna or her murderous family!
@@dandydon6049 Thank You Jesus I don’t know the Adelsons!
@@lanaindianaadelSINS
One word comes to my mind... FINALLY
Pray 🙏 WENDI is next in being indicted!!👍 Justice for Dan Markel and his boys!! 💖☝
@@cccalifornia7206Pray 🙏
Wendi and Harvey still at large !
Aww poor woman.. bought a one-way ticket to Vietnam, with a stop in Dubai where the sun shines and the living is easy.. then got nicked at Miami airport and dropped off at the penitentiary where the sun never shines and the living is hard. Say a prayer for her.
My prayer; “thank you Lord” ⚖️
I pray she gets convicted. Amen
she deserves no prayers..
Mazel Tov!
Pray for Dans kids. Pray for his soul. Pray for his parents. Forgive this souless, heartless woman. Her judgement is yet to come and is beyond us.
Ultimately we all are accountable for our actions.
As it should be. Too bad Wendi didn’t realize that before she strong armed her family into helping her out with her divorce and all the mess that comes with it.
@@neige4221 - Wendi, and Donna, and Charlie, and Henry could never have realized...because these pieces of human feces all ONLY think about themselves...and no one else...and each one of the imbeciles will openly 'sell' Dan's kids to the highest bidders if it ensures their freedom!
No bond!!! Justice will be served - even from the grave!
The shuffling! I love the shuffling -👟--👟--👟--👟
I'm wondering when we'll get bodycam footage of the arrest. Schadenfreude cannot ever taste better than that.
Amen.
Her arrest? It's widely available.
This woman’s arrogance and hatred has ruined so many lives. Wendi playing the victim and letting others do the dirty work is horrible too! The entire family seems psychopathic.
Donna doesn’t look like she is up to making Thanksgiving dinner with the inmates
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
😂😂😂🤣🥲🤪
I wonder if Charlie is getting the stuffing 😂😂
@@heatherann1560 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now the real punishment for Charlie will begin. After talking to him mom multiple times a day while in county jail, he's a convicted murderer heading for prison and she is in custody and can't contact him. Likely they will never speak again.
Considering Donna’s “personality”, this is probably more of a reward for Charlie, Wendi, Harvey, and they grandsons.
She really thought she was above it all and would never find herself in this position despite participating in the MURDER of her former son-in-law.
She frowned every so slightly when she was commanded to "not have any contact with the victim's family members" as if to say, "Why would I want to speak to those people?" Pfft.
Her grandsons are the victims family :0) ⚖️
I thought she looked hurt at that - (1:56) she seemed to flinch???
Her latest botox/fillers have not worn off yet
@@JenniferCapo0220 Me too (a little flinch of her armour)
She will ask to see the manager
wonder if DAN'S children know their uncle has been found guilty and that their grandmother has been arrested in DAN'S murder
They will of course, with social media today, they know everything
Let's see how this develops, in terms of psychological development of the kids. Let's hope not, but the resentment could lead to alcoholism, criminality, etc.- pathological character development.
They would even if that tragical story was happening before electricity was invented.
Of course they know
One of their classmates will have told them if not their mommy dearest
Wendi will give them her wide-eyed innocent act and explain how “Danny” brought this on himself and the Adelsons were tricked and blackmailed by that clever gang of Luis, Katie, and Sigfredo.
Look what you have done to yourself your family, your son-in law his family....You get what you deserve Mrs. Adelson.
Looks like Jibbers did in fact beat you
Does no contact with victim’s family include his two sons?
Obviously. Dan was the victim and he left behind two sons.
@@HannadayFLOit's actually not very obvious bc those are also WENDIS sons 🙄
And that's a tragedy 😢
She ruined her kids lives
😢
And her grandchildren
Her kids were onboard with the crime. Either or both of them could have stopped this.
Yep. She destroyed her entire family. God bless Robert Adelson because all this has to be pretty hard on him. 😢
@@Kimi1968fulat 4, and 3 years old???
@@caroliamurri3872those are her grandkids. Her “kids” are Charlie (age 49) and Wendi, who will be aging very rapidly from now on.
Gee Donna, wonder what your "sunshines" think of you now?
Sick Woman !!
She doesn’t even say good morning back to the judge.
No contact with the victim’s family, that means Ben & Lincoln
Old Harvey had ONE JOB: to put the brakes on this insane idea before it came to fruition. He failed.
So pleased to see code talk'en Donna seated before the Judge in an orange jumpsuit, it doesn't get any better than this!!
Wow!! This is soooo clear!! Asante sana. Let the music begin!!
Like mother, like son.
@albertol
And daughter too!
It’s not humorous anymore Donna? This is serious business
Oh look who it is. Hehehehehe. Your DAUGHTER NEXT
Dear Wendi, if you see this please review the case of Michael Williams who was killed by his wife Denise Williams by proxy, for the very same reasons yoi killed Dan. After 18 years, the man she married after killing Michael, spilled the beans & ratted her out. She went to prison after 18 years of freedom. She will likely die there. I wish you the same fate.
Right on. Wendi will eventually die in jail! It's only a matter of time.
My dad died when I was 14. I am
49 now. But at least I was able to talk to him and share some memories. Even though they’re distant. They still happened. It’s an insult that Dan’s boys never knew their father.
And they don't even have their father's last name because Wendy changed it right after they murdered Dan, a loving father. Wendi has no right to be called mom.
@@melaniel7121I’m sure the boys will change their last name back to Markel once they find out what granny and uncle Charlie did, they’ll do it as soon as they reach 18 years of age. They will find out who their father was and feel embarrassed to be an Adelson.
Who's the Jibbers now, Donna?
Why is she being considered for bond after having tried to flee???????
How many times has she asked to speak to the manager
You really are who you surround yourself with. Guard your heart.
When did Tiffany come out with those bracelets 😂
Looking at any of them at any point, I wouldn't even think they were wealthy never mind multi millions. Like, look at her at the "bump" they all look cheap.
I bet Donna NEVER envisioned herself there - in jail & awaiting trial ... ⚖️
Wow! It blows my mind to see her in handcuffs, so soon after Charlie's trial! 😮
Donna has a public defender?! What?!!!
@wendymiesowitz18. IMO, DA spending a million or more for an attorney is going to get her acquitted.. this is probably the only intelligent thing she did.. Happy Thanksgiving!
How appropriate that Donna won't have Thanksgiving at home!
But yes that the Markels will celebrate and give thanks is awesome!
Canadian Thanksgiving is in October.
@@wiffleythis year, it’s been extended to make up for the past nine years.
@tiffd98133 True, but justice is never celebratory...it's a bittersweet victory because nothing will bring their son back.
I’m glad Dans mom gets to see justice
I’m liking the Adelson shuffle walk in chains.
I preferred the Ninja Turtle look.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
All the chaos and devient behavior to have the children to themselves….dont they realize how quick babies grow up into adults and that those years are less than the adult years. Kids will ask questions when adults and hate them forever for killing their father.
They wondering right now.. where grandma&UncleCharlie..😮
Donna is getting ready for a great Thanksgiving meal in jail. 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
I have followed the case and am still appalled by the whole affaire. Yet, strangely enough, I don't feel any joy looking at this formerly well to do woman in her seventies being in this situation. It's sad all around.
I don't think she was ever well to do
I have to say, as much as I abhor these individuals for robbing Dan's parents of their son & Dan's children of their father, I too feel no joy in seeing the consequences of their actions come to settle the debt, silly I know, and yes justice must certainly be served or it would be a lawless world, however, it's such a sad state of affairs all around & just wish Dan had been left alone as above all, every one of us has the right to life without it being prematurely and violently stolen from us. Sigh.
I hear ya. Just a sh*tshow all around. So much misery all because she treated her grandchildren like property rather than placing appropriate importance on their need to have both a mother and father.
Agreed. No joy. So many lives shattered, one lost, completely senselessly… all b/c of a crappy divorce between Dan & Wendi! Wendi’s narcissistic family (Donna, really) did whatever it took to get their way, unconcerned w/consequences.
Its just a tragedy… a reminder that family dysfunction is real… & intergenerational trauma trickles down. The Adelson family is a next-level toxic train wreck of dysfunction. Sadly, Charlie & Wendi never had a chance w/a primary caregiver (mom) like controlling Donna. I know I’m lucky, but I have childhood trauma from a more functional narcissistic family (ha!)! Trauma therapy has helped a lot, but I’m still healing. Zero joy here. Only sadness, & hope those boys will be okay!
I agree. Their acts are despicable, but the collateral damage left behind - the Markel’s, the children (Dan’s, Charlie’s, Katie’s and Luis’s) are all innocent victims of their selfish actions. How tragic this all is.
For a moment looking at her i felt kind of sorry for her but i had to remind myself that she's a vicious person.
Don't waste your pity for a heartless monster.
So, no bail hopefully. She is like "MA Barker"
HAHAHAHAHAHA! "ma ma ma maaa" 🎵🎶🎵🎶
I love the song too.
Justice For Dan Markel
Those steal 🚽 toilet seats are cold ain't they Ms Donna..!?
Grandma Gotti is almost a decade late but I'm glad the master mind behind this is where she is now!!! Her emails alone show do much hate!!!!
No bond for the monster-in-law! Perfect!
Next Wendi lie - that is not my mother 😂😂
😂😂😂
So, Donna...Worth it? Hmm? Remorse? What have you learned? Comfy?
An amoral person, devoid of any conscience or human warmth. No different a "family annihilator" than that Murdaugh lawyer.
Has anyone seen Wendi or Harvey since Big Mama has been arrested? I hope they don’t try and flee. Hope FBI is watching them !! Mama Donna looks suicidal, they better watch her 24/7 !!
The Adelsons were what would be considered a successful family. Should've just chilled the eff out for godsake. Now no one gets anything. What good did this all do?!!
Those cuffs look good on her.
Lol
If anything good comes from this, I hope it's a stark reminder to people contemplating murder, that you can't get away with it in these times. Justice will find you!
Don't do it! It isn't worth it in the long run. Look at these people. You do not want the same fate.
And, I hope that the Markels will get custody of the children, or at the very least regular visitations.
Oh and ofc I hope Wendi is next on the warrant list.
Unfortunately, what you say about "Justice will find you," is not correct: OJ Simpson got away with it...along with tens of thousands of others...including the Mass Murderer, Henry Kissinger!
How could they possibly think they could get away with it. Harvey was at the helm and could have stopped it.
Yes, Harvey.
Alderson legacy
Welcome to beautiful Tallahassee Donna. Your grandson's(MARKEL) would have had a wonderful life here with their dad. I hope you and Wendi spend every second of your miserable lives remembering how you had a brilliant professor and loving father killed for your own personal gain. I 🙏 those boys will someday return to this wonderful city and see for themselves why their father fought so hard to keep them here.
Public defender? Just fir arraignment? 🙄
She had private counsel Marisol Delcasso. The judge has to tell each defendant that a public defender is available for their hearing, which Donna didn’t need nor would she qualify because of all the $ that family has.
Those those hand cuffs look awfully uncomfortable. Poor thing 😊
- I wonder if they come in different colours?
happy thanksgiving, Phil,Ruth, Ben and Lincoln Markel!! be blessed this year! (hopefully, the boys get their name back!)
Yeah, princess Wendi, come here and take a look at your mom.
They have nothing on wendi

No matter how you look at it, this case is very sad.

Awkward thanksgivjng at the Adelson table this year.
From the lap of luxury, to being handcuffed and shackled.
Creepy af👺
Apparently her newest stainless steel wrist and ankle bracelets and her new designer jailbird clothes do not give her as much vim and vigor, she looks distinctly below average now.
Grandma Corleone the Scarface matriarch 😂
Please buy Ruth Markel’s book, The Unveiling!
I think DA is a much tougher old lady than she is being given credit for.
Tough as nails! And meaner than a rattlesnake...the other inmates will end up being afraid of her.
We’ll see about that.

She is going to delete herself.
I have thought that since this happened. I think she will try but won't succeed.

0:03 Eat your heart out, Wendi Adelson. ⚖️
Donna's holding up better than I thought she would--
Because she is a survivor. She'd need to have a heart to suffer remorse of want forgiveness. That family if murderers are only concerned with their own survival and literally give the finger to justice system - in their warped minds they've done nothing wrong cos they got someone else to pull the trigger. They're psychopaths.

Lol😂😅😂
i wish someone would ask her if this was all worth it?! & if she could turn back time would she be ok sharing the kids now!!!? evil, evil woman… likely will never see the wrong in anything she’s done💔
What a different world for Mrs. DOnna.
wonder if Wendi will fall on the sword to make a deal to get her mom out of jail????
I think if she was like that, she would’ve done so when her brother was on trial.
Dang! Could have bonded out on count 2. Could have bonded out with count 3. But that pesky count 1 done messed everything up 😂. She will never get out..
So because of count one, she won’t be released at all? (Love it)
I wonder if wendi is on the list, of conditions whom she cannot contact.
Chuck and her can’t communicate at all now, to get their lies straight, which is glorious!
@guitarsoundsaround2360 Correct! The no bond requirement for count one (first degree murder) overrides the bond she would have been eligible for on counts two and three.. The judge explaining the rules for bond to her was just a formality and does not matter in her case at all as she is not eligible. Great news for team justice ⚖️.
@@WoeBringer1195 thank you kindly for the clarity!
I’m up in 🇨🇦 and not familiar with how those bond details work.
It’ll be interesting to see who is named on the ‘conditions’. Hopefully she cannot communicate with wendi at all. It’ll all be recorded, including any letters but cutting off those channels to communicate is fantastic!!
No bail for murder in Florida.
@@guitarsoundsaroundWendi will be able to communicate with her as Wendi is not a victim of dans murder they were divorced at the time.
