- Footage from the police interrogation of Luis Rivera shows him attempting to retrace his criminal footsteps, leading authorities to the gun used to kill former FSU professor Dan Markel back in 2014. Rivera was cooperative and answered all of detective's questions. He was arrested for Markel's murder and plead guilty to the crime two days after his arrest. Rivera is currently serving 19 years in prison for his involvement in the Florida homicide. Investigators believe he drove his co-defendant, Sigfredo Garcia, to the crime scene and Garcia pulled the trigger, ultimately killing Markel.

If rivera did not take the plea deal, we won't be here watching Charlie's trial. He's one of the key witness and direct eye witness in this murder plot.
He helped with his confession but the State still had ample evidence to indict others.
They had Charlie without the plea deal.
@@bobabooey4537 Enhancement video/audio took a long time for Charlie's arrest. The state is expecting Katie to speak up just like Rivera did but she said no thanks.
@@bobabooey4537georgia said no one was talking and so they had nothing to try them before rivera agreed. if you listen to the wondery podcast about this case gives an interesting snapshot of what they had at that point in time which wasn’t much.
Not true
Why does this killer come across almost likable? He does have some sense of values. It’s bizarre. He doesn’t want the kids to witness the shooting. He gets mad when his friend leaves his own kids with a sketchy babysitter. He uses his money to pay his mom’s rent when the other guy is gambling it away. He’s clearly wiser than the other guy. It’s just too bad he was born into this gang. He could have been something. Imagine if he’d been born into a good home and sent to school.
A lot of people in prison aren’t sociopathic-they’re just a victim of their upbringing and circumstances. I’ll bet there are more sociopathic people on Wall Street than in most prisons.
I agree. It's just sad all the way around. I don't feel empathy or bad for him but without the Adelsons this wouldn't have happened.
He is not a good man the moment he decided to take away the father of young children and cause so much destruction in a family just for money and to buy a motorcycle for himself. Of course, the Adelson family are to blame too.
Man I agree…..with everything u said.
Because hes the only one whos appeared to be honest about everything
This should be the nail in the coffin for Wendy. It's more than obvious she knew and was involved in some way.
I feel bad for Luis Rivera. His honesty in the courtroom was refreshing. Showed more values than the Adelson family put together.
I totally agree! Louis didn't want to kill him and he wasn't the shooter! He was trying to convince the other guy to just rob him, but the other guy said they paid me 30k to kill him!
Louis seems like he has some compassion and goodness in him...if he was raised right he would have been a good guy! He has way more compassion than the whole Adelson family combined! I feel sorry for Luis!
Agreed
He’s most honest one in entire case
Disagree. That would be JL. But, LR does have moments of honesty ... he had to.
@user-ue3xb8tz1uJeff Lacasse, Wendi's bf she tried to frame for murder.
he has nothing to lose at this moment so yes I think he is most honest maybe since the beginning
@user-ue3xb8tz1u one of the hitmen Luis Rivera
@user-ue3xb8tz1u The man who is featured in this video. Luis Rivera.
They’re gonna get Wendy
I believe Wendi was involved in having Dan murdered.
I hope she has nightmares of being in a cell someday! She took that lady's only child. Pathetic
@@charcole3366 Dan has a sister.
if anyone escapes it will be wendi and the dad the mom is toast
@@scroogemcduckrich9705 oh yea the mom is fried that’s gonna be fun to watch 😂😂 I’m pretty sure Wendi gonna get it too
To me he is the only person that I 100% believed. He is the only one that admitted what he did and his story has not changed in all these years. He is not what I think on when I think of a gang leader.
3 guys in jail and the real killers enjoying the children.
I have to say Rivera comes across as way more likable and human than Wendi...or any member of the Adelsons for that matter. He's being genuine and open whereas Wendi's persona comes across as completely false and phony in her testimonies and police interviews. I wish he hadn't chosen a life of crime. 😢
I agree 😢
I feel sorry for Luis, he is likeable. I don't feel sorry for Wendi, she is hated by everyone! Biggest narcissistic egotistical overly-confident obnoxiously arrogant sociopath!
Luis had a good family he could have been a good person with a good soul! He at least has more compassion than any of the Adelsons!
Agreed. Way more human than any of the Adelsons. Unfortunately, he was born into this life of crime.
I’m glad the State did work with Mr Rivera.
His testimony was worth it and it lead to the arrest and conviction of Charlie and the arrest of Donna.
As crazy as this sounds. This is the only suspect in this case that I have any respect for. He seems to have some empathy for the victims. He is caught, he knows he’s caught and he is willing to be open & honest. He knows he can’t fool law enforcement and isn’t even going to try to put on a show and try.
Lol, he just wanted the deal from the state cause he was caught. He was willing to say whatever they wanted to get 19 years instead of life wop
lol. That and he wanted a deal
He got a deal to cooperate. LOL
First one to talk gets to walk.
But he did mention 2 his partner in crime, let's jus rob her instead of taken a life... I respect that, had tutu listened dan life wudve been spared!!!
Even though Rivera is a gang member, his story makes more sense. Why would he drive 7 hours to kill a man he has never met.
Exactly. And then hope that his brother in law would fork over hundreds of thousands of dollars if you threatened his family and told him you killed Markel. In the real world, that brother in law would go to the police immediately and say “These people killed my brother in law and threatened to kill my family if I didn’t pay up”. Waiting 10 years, until your own murder trial, to finally say that you were extorted? Cool story bro. Have fun in prison Charlie
@croweater1 exactly. Any law abiding citizens would have gone straight to the proper authorities. Especially if these people just told you that they just killed your ex brother in law.
@@croweater1 you don't know what some people will do, the girl could be behind it all!
@@user-ub2xy1ht4g not if they say they will kill you and your family! Would you run to the police and if they don't believe you then you and your family get killed!
Silly question. A person would drive 7 hours for 2 reasons. One... getting paid, and 2.... keeping distance.
The only honest person in this entire case possibly?
Yes
@amsterdame for sure but isn't it ironic?
If this is true, then Wendi should be on trial along with her mother! I think another arrest may be coming soon!!
He didnt even want to kill Danny in the first place because of the children. He wanted to rob Wendy instead. If only Garcia had listened. Dan Markel would still be here today and Wendy would've gotten taken for a ride.
They weren't ever meeting with Wendy. Not possible.
@@Snail.1Wendy walked by right before they did it. So yes they easily could have.
Bulk he is liar and been coached
Donna, Harvey & Charlie would’ve got taken for a ride. Remember, it was the parents who brought the money to Charlie’s house right before Katie got there, only hours after the murder.
@@jeanleigh185 he’s not lying if he had been coached by the state why wouldn’t he have said Yep we had a meet up me Wendy the dentist the grandma and grandpa and they all told me yup we’re gonna kill that Markel and you’re gonna get paid if he had been coach that’s what he would’ve said and we would’ve had one trial eight years ago and been done are you freaking simple?
Disregard that last question it’s obviously rhetorical it’s clear that you are in fact simple
As evil as the Latin Kings are, the Adelsons’ are a million times more evil!! Justice for the Markel family!
Oh oh... Girl...Wendy Wen you in troubleeeeeeeeee....
Unless and until they get Wendi there is no justice for Dan.
Wow, Wendi went to see the killers, and then went to the scene of the crime, and yet she still walks free, for now anyway.
Wrong, Wendi never met the killers and she didn't drive to the scene of the crime.
Finding myself completely Team Luis. At the very least, he is who he says he is. Get them evil Adelson's!
Tato got the best deal for snitching ...a field trip, several day passes to the courthouse and a concurrent sentence...c u in 2035
Katy got the best deal. Get out of jail free card, twice and fuc**** it up.
This isn't Tato; Tato didn't snitch and was sentenced to life
that's not Tato... That's Revera..he help them setup to bump
It seems that Wendi was at Dan’s house with her boys in order to show the hitmen the exact house to go to.
It's crazy the money they got paid lasted each of them less than four months each.
It sounded like *big money to them* I bet
he gives the money to family.. SG blows it gambling
he bought 1 motorcycle, the rest of the money went to his fam and his kids (pay mom's rent, etc. not including Jessica, his baby mama lol)
Many have commented on the 9 yrs or so it took this case to come to trial. Kudos to Florida’s judicial system…we have to remember…Prosecutors ONLY GET 1 CHANCE IN COURT and I pray Academy Award Actress the Wicked WENDI is next🙏🙏🙏and Fla is done w/this Self Absorbed family once & for All!
(Recently learned about this case & wish I could remember which Podcast had two of Danny & Wendi’s close friends speaking from 3 years ago (interviewed separately, one gal thought steadfast they’d never convict Wendi bc she “is totally innocent”😳while the other hoped Wendi wasn’t involved but her gut told her otherwise👌More importantly: discussed how over the yrs Harry(?)Adelson the father) has been portrayed as somewhat the quiet and nice family member?Both agreed NOT SO, feel he may have been the Mastermind as it was “no secret to many he despised Danny very much!” What a Sick family!!!
Go get ‘em Georgia!!!!!
plus...the technology to make those Dolce Vida wiretaps wasn't developed til later. FBI couldn't make out what was being said til long after the tapes.
Tamara demko is their mutual friend who believes Harvey was heavily involved
Wow wow wow - The OWL! What was on Wendi's t shirt the day of Dan's murder?!!!😮
Hes gonna help put wendie away 2.
👏👏
You gotta change your audio settings to hear this. It’s better to just listen with one side, left sounds better than right.
Thank you!
I can't make out any thing lol😂 I thought it was My phone
I wish the interrogation had audio. Am I the only one not able to hear it?
I can't hear it either
He very credible. And also very likable. Not to mention giving his mother money for rent and his baby momma money for his children for school clothes. He is a caring person even tho he is a killer
Why does the defense keeps placing his hand and arm constantly over his head it’s distracting
Yeah! That was driving my fkn nuts, so put a post it note on my screen to cover him up.
He like picking at his skin, that poor lady had to sit there and watch him pick at his head skin for over an hour.
Wow they mentioned Sarasota and Bradenton area where I live that’s crazy this case was insane this dude got the best deal
The years I spent in Sarasota, where among the worst in my life. I hated everything about that town. As soon as I had the opportunity, I ran back to Saint Pete.
@@southphillylilly lol really I’ve had the opposite experience st Pete Is beautiful as well
Katy was offered full immunity!
Maybe you unwittingly rolled past them when they were there.
Truth teller
Seems like a honest guy. 😭
Enjoy your privilege.
@heather3383 oh yeah ,Every day, in fact I'm sitting on my yacht right now eating caviar....
@@SHADOWBLACKs650I want some 😢
What happened to the sound.
Is there a transcript to this interview?
Charlie made Katie take a zanny & sleep over bc Dan wasn't pronounced dead til 14 hrs later. He did not want hand over the money until he was dead. 😢 He is exactly where he should have been almost 10 yrs ago.
Are these people from another freaking planet? Who loses a rental car????
I can’t hear the interview room!
He straight up no messing guy he did the crime he will do the time no fuss
How is wendi still free if she MET Garcia??!!!!
Somebody needs to go magnet fishin
Can't even hear anything in the interrogation room.
L&C really not doing very well.
The head of the Latin Kings has instagram? lol
I can't hear it!
He didn’t killed Dan the shooter was Sigfredo Garcia
Tato taco was just the driver
Where's the volume?
Who'd have guessed, this group brainstorming🤔
10 years,They finally got them.
Oh wow Wendi got GOT!
Not yet!
Hope they show this jurors
I realize that it was their job, but props to the LEOs who spent long, tedious hours going thru FL toll footage to find the exact Prius.
Respect.
The fact that people are here in the comments praising this kid, like he's a pillar of his community 😂
I can’t hear one word. What kind of video is this?
After 4:30 the sound completely craps out smh. So this is literally a 50 minute video of nothing happening because you can't hear a thing
Why does it sound like a boat cabin taking on water around the six minute mark? Not enough funding for audiovisual cameras? 😂
Would a map or areol map show alleged bridges on the way back? Magnet bridge (divers) could find the gun. Or, submerged car divers. AWP (Adventures With Purpose might give a suggestion how LE could find.)
Both of the hitmen have been convicted already, so the gun is a moot issue by now.
Chilling way to live.
95% of sound is blurred..crappy video to tell anything
Anybody else find it strange how much Tato is singing about the inner workings of the gang operation, despite the fact that he's one of the kingpins?
Imagine a high ranking Latin King snitching..thats wild
Everyone is an individual and when you turn up the heat, then you will see the true character of a person.
He's not a Latin king leader like they say!
@@jolo7693And just curious ~ how would you know?
High ranking mafiosos have ratted. While you waste away in prison for the rest of your life, no one really remembers that you kept it real 🤷🏻♀️.
He’s a human being who wants to go home one day. And if it wasn’t for him the Adelson’s would have gotten away with this.
Why is Wendy not arrested ?
There was politics involved over the past 7 years.
But not anymore.
LR or SG believed "The Lady" was from/in Miami and wanted her kids back (who lived in Tallahassee with Dan ).
KM may have shown SG the beach photo? Or, had SG ever seen or communicated with WA? Delivered a burner phone ahead of schedule? WA always goes out to eat when hitmen were close by; twice (Once in Miami and then in Tallahassee; the same date/time of the murder). SG may have remembered WA from the restaurant in Miami; assumed she lived in Miami? Or, perhaps "somehow" knew she desired to move to Miami and wanted her kids in Miami (too). LR could easily confuse minor details if he too knew WA had been in or from Miami.
But, there are moments when SG or LR may have been in direct contact with WA in real time ... (burner phone, whats app, via KM on whats app with WA or CA). He slips a few times and says "The Lady" said ... okay, said to who (and as needed for him/them).
However, SG or LR seem a little too familiar with Tallahassee. With RICO crimes on the rise in Tallahassee around that time +/- ... difficult to say why LR believed SG had "seen" WA before and where/when. (But, he's not mentioning the restaurant?)
Had either SG or LR talked to WA back in (the summer of) 2013?
Presuming WA wasn't purposefully lying to Jeff - calculated/manipulated framing unless a slip. Or, perhaps projecting the alleged 2013 all options explored onto her brother; if it were perhaps really WA who had explored all options (first) back in the summer of 2013; when WA shortly there after began 'dating' JL (and CA then started 'dating' KM). 2014 -->> Round 2 (or 1)?
JL heard WA say this and correctly.
Whether she was lying, half lying or being 100% truthful JL would have no real way of knowing at the time. But, he perhaps believes her; even with Dan still alife. (WA may have been fishing for Jeff to say something incriminating or bow up about Dan? But, he doesn't after hearing something so vile; regardless if it never happened. Or, comment is just a slip up while talking about something 'confidential'?) Regardless, WA said it. JL heard it.
His perception would/may change drastically over the following weeks upon learning of Dan's actual death AND cause and manner. WA's put JL in a bad position.
Isn't this considered snitching?
All day
But how you advising another criminal & now you in jail? 😂
Prison gang politics go out the window when they want to give you the death penalty.
What gave it away?
@@bbennyj omg I’m cracking up. You know your wrong. So silly
Terrible audio
Must have terrible ears
My guy got Jordan’s in prison, def a shot caller
Wait. When did he lead them to the gun? To my knowledge it has never been recovered.
That audio sucked, I turned it off. Who's going to sit for 53 minutes and hear this crap.
Nice of them to let him wear his Nike High Tops !
Owls are bad luck lol
I thought they never found the gun?
It wasn’t found
What Jordan’s is he wearing
So Wendi was involved too!?!?! 😳
That part of the story is shaky. He said that "Wendi" had the two children with her, outside of Dan Markel's house, before noon on the 17th. According to the established timeline, Dan would already have taken the children to their daycare/pre-school that morning. So how would Wendi have them?
@@u.synlig Maybe he got it confused from the 1st trip in June 2014?
My question now is HOW did Wendi know to look at them and stare at them???
And how did Garcia know it was her, “Wendi”???
@@u.synlig Bottomline, all Adelsons were involved to some degree & are GUILTY of murdering Dave Markle IMO!!!
He knew what they wanted to hear!
@@jolo7693 yeah! The truth! Lol. I think Wendi & Donna had burner phones!
He might or not remember. Lots of drugs and alcohol
Question is will they now give Charlie Adelson the death penalty?
Not as long as they keep picking Jurors who at a crucial time CANNOT bring themselves to convict for Death Penalty…Especially when children are involved ie CO Chris Watts, TX Border Agent stabbed his 19mon illegitimate precious baby boy NINETEEN times…it took just 1 person out of 12 Jurors for Life. Our country must find a way for LESS $$$/T I M E spent on Death penalty cases! Perhaps our MANY SENSELESS homicides would be deterred🙏
Also NO PLEA AGREEMENTS. PERIOD. Yea right, sadly in our dreams.
There trying to find the gun. Remember they tossed it in the lake toto did.
Who is she ????
Life in prison,and for nothing..
19 years for Rivera.
Terrible audio.
F-up audio!
he real comftable snitching i dont know who brought him home but they just as guilty for co sighning him a disgrace to the nation [elevate]
All i hear is water...you guys drowning it out cause u got donna?
BAD AUDIO!
Let me see if ibgot this right? Toto said he is going to fight his appeal. That hes going to fight it till people get sick of him hes the one that shot Danny. Ibthink toto or tata should pay for hisbappealnor his familybshould pay for it. U want tax payers to pay for it? Over and ove.
He sounds like Tay Savage
You know it was wendis plan, its written like a bad paperback
He trying to sound like he so bad & ish .. punk
He lying??
I don’t think so.. he’s story has been most honest of everyone
His confession backs up the evidence!
He knew what he needed to say to get his deal!
Chatty patty
Why is he so anxious to give up this information? Hes at all the bars but his friend is the drunk? What is he getting by snitching
The deal of a lifetime. He’ll be out in 2035.
Less time in prison!
A clear conscience
Death penalty off the table for LR ... but was on the table for his bff/SG (who may or may not have pulled the trigger in July; and LR was the planned original shooter for June trip at that). Some BFF... ???
The Shooter in between a (~hired/financially promised) Latin King and demanding (cheating) wife ... as LR tells it. Shooter got life. Jurors spared him his life; related to criteria allowed in death penalty cases.
Only 19 yrs..and I doubt he stays in the full time.. usually a 1/3 or so of the time unless the judge states otherwise 🤔
This your Latin king 🐀 19 years of 🧀 cheese
What do you expect? Now what is he doing? Now he’s the good honest guy? Seriously??? Of course.. what would he say? He’s trying to save himself at least..
Ok Wendi😂
Rat
Ones mans rat is another man’s justice seeker.
the real rat is wendi, though. Hopefully, they get her with this testimony
He's snitching on people that deserve to be snitched on
@@primalcritters His best friend….& his gang that he considers “ Family”
The killer
nope but sigfredo
He went a long for the ride and got life
He was the driver , not shooter
@@Nashvilletn-dm1pt SAME THING. UUMMM
THATS WHY HES IN JAIL FOR LIFE
@@solraczevehc3761no HE didn’t get life. It always makes me laugh when someone who’s wrong speaks the loudest… this man got a deal he will be out in 2025 or 2035 … he told. The shooter GOT LIFE. You’re welcome.
This GUY Got away with a slap on the wrist
19 years is no slap on the wrist
@@bbennyj Only seven years, in real time.
@@u.synligactually he’s doing time in federal prison which he serves a minimum of 85% ….that’s 16 years mandatory if he has no violations
