Do 151 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: you recall when you learned Dan not only had passed away, 152 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: but was murdered. 153 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, it could be with you, Nancy. When I first 154 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 11: heard about Dan's murder, I was shell shocked because here's 155 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 11: a guy who didn't have any known enemies. He was 156 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 11: someone who cared deeply about his family, as you directly said, 157 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 11: and he made an impact on his students.

I had no answers, 161 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 11: and it really is still a shock that you have 162 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 11: someone without any previous criminal records, Donna Adelson, who obviously 163 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 11: thought she was above the law allegedly, but she is 164 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 11: someone who there's a growing evidence that she was the mastermind. 165 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 11: And it's unbelievable how you have someone who previously has 166 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 11: not had a lipho crime to think that they could 167 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 11: get away with first degree murder. But on the other hand, 168 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 11: that is the type of person who would try to 169 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 11: say earwax means she needs to get out of jail 170 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 11: pending trial, when no one accused the first degree murder 171 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 11: has ever been allowed out of jail pre trial because 172 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 11: of earwax. I don't think it's ever happened in the history. 173 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: You know. 174 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: I want to follow up on what you're saying, Dave, 175 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: and I want to circle back to you regarding how 176 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: you learned that your longtime friend Dan had been murdered. 177 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 3: But to you, Robert. 178 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: Crispin, you and I have dealt was so many homicides 179 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: and so many unlikely chillers that I mean, just the 180 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: complaint of the mother in law that she should get 181 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: bond and walk free because of earwax, because she can't hear, 182 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: because people are too loud behind Mars, because she's not 183 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: getting a good night's sleep. Elane Maxwell said the same 184 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: thing that didn't work because she's not Oh yes, that 185 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: she's not getting enough exercise. I mean that just shows 186 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: what a pampered and privileged life she has led. 187 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 3: I mean, she's not thinking anything about Dan. 188 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 9: How many times have we seen in these homicide cases, 189 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 9: and Dave Eiberg, he'll tell you these domestic related homicide investigations, 190 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 9: they always filter back. They go to the top of 191 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 9: the food chain, the grandmother. The grandmother's funding the litigation 192 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 9: because the person can't afford it. That's all right, I'll 193 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 9: fund it. I don't like him, I love those kids. 194 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 9: I'm gonna get you your kids. These things are not uncommon. 195 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 9: Murder is uncommon, and the way this one down is 196 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 9: really uncommon. 197 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 3: But it's not uncommon for. 198 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 9: Someone like Dona Allison to get involved, funded and try 199 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 9: to do any vindictive way to get those kids through 200 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 9: her daughter and get them down to South Florida in Miami. 201 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 9: I mean, come on, would. 202 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: You know Dave Arenberg joining us out of West Palm 203 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: Beach former Palm Beach County State attorney, our private attorney, Dave, 204 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: tell me how you discovered Dan had been murdered. 205 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 11: A good friend of mine called me who was also 206 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 11: close with Danny and told me this had happened, and 207 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 11: it was just you never expect to get that phone 208 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 11: call that a friend of yours had been murdered, especially 209 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 11: one like Danny who did not engage in any high 210 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,599 Speaker 11: risk behavior. You know, he wasn't a drug user, he 211 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 11: didn't do things that put him in bad situations. He 212 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 11: was a loving dad, and ironically, that's the behavior that 213 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 11: led to this tragedy, is that he loved his kids 214 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 11: so much that he wasn't about to let them go 215 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 11: down to South Florida without a fight. But he believed 216 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 11: in the system. He believed that you could go to 217 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 11: this court and the person who wins in the courts wins, 218 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 11: as opposed to taking matters in your own hands. So 219 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 11: it was shocking. Nancy, I still can't believe it that 220 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 11: this actually happened to someone I know, and no one 221 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 11: deserves his faith, but especially not someone who gave his 222 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 11: life dollars like Danny did. 223 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 3: Crime stories with Nancy Grace. 224 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:40,119 Speaker 1: Too Joel Waldman joining me now, co host of Surviving 225 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: the Survivor, author of Surviving a Survivor. You know, I'm 226 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: just very curious, Joel. You have been investigating this ever 227 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: since it first happened. 228 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 3: Now we heard. 229 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: Robert Crispin talking about potential motive for murder. Now explain 230 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: to me, Joel, the goings on leading up to Dan's 231 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: murder regarding custody of the two little boys. 232 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, so that's really at the crux of all this. 233 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 6: And thank you for having me, Nancy. Great to be here. 234 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 6: The marriage, like many marriages, began to go south, and 235 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 6: Wendy Adelson, Wendy with an I and Dan, the marriage. 236 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 3: Was beginning to crumble. 237 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 6: They get a divorce, and then at the center are 238 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 6: these two beautiful kids, Benjamin and Lincoln and Mamma Donna, 239 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 6: Mama Donna Adelson. She jumps in, according to all reports 240 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 6: and according to all accounts, at Wendy's behest and basically 241 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 6: starts tearing apart Dan Markel, saying, look, you can't stay 242 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 6: up in Tallahassee. I want my kids down here in Miami. 243 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 6: I happen to live myself in Miami Beach, and I 244 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 6: know that condo, and it is absolutely stunning to think 245 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 6: of the contrast now with her being in the Leon 246 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 6: County jail. 247 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 2: Donna Adelson, arrested trying to board a flight to Vietnam, 248 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 2: tells a judge she was just looking for a little 249 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: peace before turning herself in on murder charges. 250 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: And will the court by her excuse? Why is law 251 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: Professor Dan Markel dead? Why was he murdered? What if 252 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: anything does his mother in law, a multimillionaire, have to 253 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: do with it? As you heard, shared custody, joint custody 254 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: was ordered. 255 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 3: By the court, but that wouldn't do for the mother 256 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: in law. Listen. 257 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 12: After the court prevents Wendy Aedelson from moving to South 258 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 12: Florida with the children, court records indicate that Wendy Aedelson's mother, Donna, 259 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 12: suggests the family offer Markel one million dollars to allow 260 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 12: the children to relocate to South Florida. Donna and her husband, 261 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 12: Harvey will contribute a third, Charlie Aedelson, Wendy's brother, will 262 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 12: contribute a third. Wendy will pay a third. Donna Adelson 263 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 12: also suggests, telling Marquet that Wendy Aedelson is going to 264 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 12: have the boys converted to Catholicism. Knowing Markell and his 265 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 12: family are strict in the Jewish faith, Donna Adelson believes 266 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 12: the mere thought of his children being baptized and raised 267 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 12: Catholic would convince him to let the boys move to Miami. 268 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 12: Wendy Aedelson read Jacks her mother's ideas, making Donna Aedelson 269 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 12: very mad straight. 270 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: Back out to longtime friend, Professor Markel's Dave Ehrenberg. Dave, Now, 271 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: normally I would not suspect a family member of orchestrating 272 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: a murder, basically hiring a hit man. But now that 273 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: I hear a bribe was to be offered to your 274 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: friend in order to relinquish his visitation with the children. 275 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: Did you know about the bribe mother in law came 276 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: up with. 277 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 7: I did not, But there is still a big step 278 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 7: between offering a bribe a settlement amount and trying to 279 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 7: kill Dan Markel. And I think the difference is that 280 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 7: the Maestro got involved, and that was Donna's son Charlie, 281 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 7: who thought he could wave a magic wand and make 282 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 7: all wend these problems disappear. And you don't have to 283 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 7: trust me on the fact that he's the maestro. He 284 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 7: called himself that that was his license plate on his Lamborghini. 285 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 7: So it's just who he is. 286 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 11: And his mother went along and now she's paying the price. 287 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: To Tim Jansen is joining me, veteran criminal defense attorney, 288 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: former federal prosecutor, legal analyst for the Tallahassee Democrats and newspaper. 289 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 3: Tim, thank you for being with us. 290 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: A million dollar bribe to make Dan Markel give up custody. 291 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 3: That's evil. 292 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 13: She couldn't get the grandkids to come down there, so 293 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 13: they offer him money, thinking that he would give money 294 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 13: up for his children, Thinking he's a shallow he would 295 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 13: take money. Well, when that didn't work, planned be went 296 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 13: into effect and she left the Maestro Charlie to hire 297 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 13: these people to commit these crimes. This is what the 298 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 13: allegations are, and that these people who couldn't even do 299 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 13: it right the first time, shot the car the first time. 300 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 13: Then they came back up here and committed this crime. 301 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 13: And then we have the bump, and we have this 302 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 13: secret coded calls between the grandmother and Charlie.

She didn't care what she 305 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 13: was going to do to. 306 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: Get it well yet Jim Jansen, the daughter Markel's wife 307 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: now ex wife, has not been charged, but she was 308 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: up go ahead, you know. 309 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 13: She hasn't been charged yet. And the problem you had 310 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 13: is a couple of the recordings they had the title 311 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 13: three Wires. There's some exculpatory statements made by Charlie and 312 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 13: Donna that this involves two two of us, only us, 313 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 13: or she doesn't realize how lucky she is what we 314 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 13: did for her. And then they gave her immunity, which 315 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 13: you've got to get around that she's testified for the state. 316 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 11: Trust me. 317 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 13: If Georgia and Jack Campbell, the state attorney, thought they 318 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 13: had enough evidence to charge Wendy, they would have.

Who's going to take care of the 333 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 9: kids if everybody goes to prison. So she's going to 334 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 9: cover for her daughter, and they're going to throw these 335 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 9: little kidbits out thinking they're throwing law enforcement out out. 336 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 9: She said, nobody else is involved, so let's not follow anybody. Yeah, right, 337 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 9: I don't think so. I'm glad she said that because 338 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 9: as an investigator, I'm looking at every single thing that 339 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 9: she's saying, and I'm like, oh, so she is potentially involved. 340 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 9: Let's look into this. So those statements that she've made 341 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 9: during that call, they're priceless for an investigator. Dave Erison 342 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 9: will tell you that those are great statements. 343 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm thinking through everything. 344 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: And I mentioned that the mother in law thinks she 345 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: should got out of jail because she's got earwax, But 346 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: she also wants to get out of jail because she 347 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: says the jail food is making her gain weight. Okay, 348 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: she says the diet behind bars is just all carves, 349 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: like spaghetti and mashed potatoes, corn bread. 350 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 3: That's your dinner. Those are her words. Not mine. 351 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,479 Speaker 1: Okay, so she's gaining weight as she has earwax airG 352 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: she deserves bond. No way, Granny, not when you listen 353 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: to this. 354 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 4: So you're saying his head. 355 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 5: Is bloody, Now, yes, I'm bloody. I mean it's the 356 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 5: window shattered. I don't know if he's tried to shoot himself. 357 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 5: I don't know what the situation is. 358 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 3: It's the driver's side window, correct, that's correct. 359 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 5: He's still moving around, so he's alive. 360 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 4: Okay, looks like I should have an officer coming up 361 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 4: the roadway. 362 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 5: Okay, well we need the mt. 363 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 4: The officer's going to be there first. They're not going 364 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 4: to come until we figure out what's going on, but 365 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 4: they're on the way as well. 366 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 5: Okay, you'd better be if this guy's got a shot living. 367 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 2: A shocking recorded jail call between a Florid and grandmother 368 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 2: and her convicted killer son could be thrown out. 369 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: Will the judge suppress the to call? 370 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 14: I would say there's certainly good information indications that you 371 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 14: know as since there's no known relationship between mister Rivera 372 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 14: or mister Garcia and Professor Markelo that obviously they was 373 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 14: not a random act that they came up here. 374 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: For him and straight out to Joel Walman joining me 375 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 1: co host an incredible podcast called Surviving the Survivor Joel, 376 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 1: Where are the two little boys now? Who has them? 377 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 9: Yeah? 378 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 6: Well this is very interesting. So according to all reports, 379 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 6: Wendy Adelson has now moved from South Florida, who's living 380 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,199 Speaker 6: right near her mother in that really nice area of 381 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 6: South Beach, but has now reportedly moved to Austin, Texas. 382 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 6: She has a new boyfriend. 383 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 3: All we know about him. 384 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 6: His first name is George j O r Ge and 385 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 6: he is living with them apparently in Austin. But what's interesting, 386 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 6: of course, at which I think you'll get into, is 387 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 6: that Donna Adelson, who we've been talking about. The reason 388 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 6: she is now behind bars is that she had purchased 389 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 6: a one way ticket to Vietnam via Dubai and was 390 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 6: arrested at the airport. So many people, and I've had 391 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 6: Tim on my show many times, as well as Dave Ahrenberg, 392 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 6: they believe that the FEDS at least at the very 393 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 6: least have eyes on Wendy. But some are wondering is 394 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 6: she kind of inching further south to maybe make a 395 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 6: run for it. Herself, her time could be coming up 396 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 6: or you. 397 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 3: Know, it's questionable. 398 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 6: But Georgia Kapelman, who is the prosecutor in this case, 399 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 6: her father played football at FSU. He's very competitive as 400 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 6: she is, and there's a personal animus I think from 401 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 6: her toward Wendy, and I think that they personally are 402 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 6: going to go after Wendy. They've been going in order here, 403 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 6: one by one by one. Donna is up next and 404 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 6: then maybe Wendy, but she is in Austin, Texas by 405 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 6: all accounts. 406 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to get to the mother in law 407 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: trying to flee to Vietnam, which by the way, does 408 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: not have an extradition treaty with the US, and the 409 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: mother in law confesses that she knew that that she 410 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,439 Speaker 1: studied it before she planned to go to Vietnam to 411 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: get peace. Okay, speaking of the reasons, it's Diddy all 412 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: over again. I'm referring to Shawn Combe's aka Diddy aka 413 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: Puff Puffy Puff Daddy Love. It goes on and on, 414 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: who insists that he should be out from behind bars 415 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: awaiting the trial, just like Edelson. Just recently Shawn Combs 416 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: claiming he had a knee problem really from what Now, 417 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: listen to this complaint from the mother in law. 418 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 15: I've gained more than a third of my body weight. 419 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 15: Here the diatos, little carbs, snow protein, and you know 420 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 15: when you get you get spaghetti with mashed potatoes, cornbread, 421 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 15: and whitebread. That's your dinner, in law. It's very typical 422 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 15: of what we get. And we've had no exercise at all. 423 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 3: O Crispin, help me. 424 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: Of all the people on our panel, and they're all 425 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: experts in their own right, and she is complaining about spaghetti. 426 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: Nobody's fixing me spaghetti tonight. If I want dinner, I'm 427 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: cooking it myself. Wait, let me understand this. She doesn't 428 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: want spaghetti, she doesn't want mashed potatoes, she doesn't want 429 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: corn bread. 430 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 9: What well, so I'll put in nicely where she lives 431 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 9: as the most amazing restaurants in the country. As a 432 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 9: matter of fact, some of the restaurants here in Miami 433 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 9: are the best in the world. So her dining that 434 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 9: way is out the carbs, the spaghetti, the mashed potatoes. Hey, 435 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 9: that's jail. Sorry, suck it up. You're gaining weight. Guess 436 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 9: what weight keeps you warm? Jails are ice cold. 437 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 3: Okay, I'll pass that along. 438 00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: It's not just complaining about her gaining weight so much more, 439 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: but the irony. 440 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 3: Joel Walalman, the irony. 441 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: Her son in law, Dan, well known in the legal community, 442 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: brilliant right, brilliant legal scholar, was murdered, was still moving 443 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: around trying to communicate in the front seat of his 444 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: car in his own garage. A hit man has been 445 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: hired and has turned over and is testifying a hit man. 446 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: All of this, and she's whining about the spaghetti. The 447 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: boys will never know their father, my father, the closest 448 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: person in the world to me, my father. They'll never 449 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: know their father, Joel, and she's whining about the marin era. 450 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, this was really tough to watch. This was a 451 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 6: hearing that went on for about four hours, and there's 452 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 6: a laundry list. You mentioned that earwax. She was complaining 453 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 6: that her ear nows are smaller than a typical human, 454 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 6: so she needs them washed out. But to your point, 455 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 6: I mean, Dan is no longer with us. Some of 456 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 6: her other complaints include that the mattress is too thin, 457 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 6: and like you just heard that she put on a 458 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 6: third of her body weight behind bars, and that poor 459 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 6: old Donna has to go to the commissary now to 460 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 6: buy cans of tuna so she gets enough protein. I mean, 461 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 6: talk about a person that is not aware of, you know, 462 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 6: the story surrounding her. I mean she just has either 463 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 6: her head in the sand or is just so self 464 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 6: centered that it's of epic proportions. I think most people 465 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 6: who watch this were just incredulous at some of these 466 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 6: comments that she was making. But the bottom line is 467 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 6: she doesn't like jail. She wants to get out. Maybe 468 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 6: she should have thought about this before she allegedly set 469 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 6: up this murder for higher. 470 00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: Plot crime stories.

It's amazing 496 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: to me that she, instead of trying to work out 497 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: a solution, or have her daughter, for peaces, work out 498 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: a solution. I believe the daughter's a lawyer, work out 499 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: a solution to custody. It was a better idea to 500 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: just murder the dad. And you know these children will 501 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 1: never have a recollection of the father, but wait for it, Crispin. 502 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: Not only is she whining about the spaghetti. 503 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 15: Listen, So I have I have a hearing issue. Okay, 504 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 15: I have a problem. I evidently have very narrow ear canals, 505 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 15: and so doing get the wax builds up in my 506 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 15: ears to the point that I mean, I have officers 507 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 15: that say to me, are you deaf atels? And when 508 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 15: I don't respond to them, it's because I don't. 509 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: Hear them very narrow ear canals. 510 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 3: Crispin, she wills bond. Not just a murder, not just 511 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 3: I get mad in the bar and pull a gun 512 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 3: boom boom over. 513 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: A very well thought out murder for hire, which is 514 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: an aggravating circumstance under which death penalty can be sought. 515 00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: Murder for hire. It's not just premeditated, it's murder for higher. 516 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: And she is whining about her ear wax. 517 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, she's definitely brasping at straws, isn't she. But that's 518 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 9: not going to happen in this particular case, not with 519 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 9: these alleged set of circumstances. And Nancy right over my 520 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 9: shoulder were her two million dollar condo. Is if I 521 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 9: go on the roof and I look, I could probably 522 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 9: throw a rock and hit the runways of the Miami 523 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 9: International Airport. So by the time she'd got here, if 524 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 9: she did got that ankle bracelet off, that's already wheels 525 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 9: up and she's gone. And we all know, sadly enough, 526 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 9: how easy it is to get fake passports, fake ID 527 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 9: and fleet. She's not getting out, and she's making herself 528 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 9: look worse by not addressing what really happened. 529 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 12: The Florida State University criminal law professor was pulling into 530 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 12: his driveway and talking on his cell phone when he 531 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 12: was fatally shot. News reports say the killer was waiting 532 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 12: for Markel outside his home in Tallahassee's Ben Hills section, 533 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 12: then followed Markel into the garage. When he opened it, 534 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 12: Markelle was shot in this side of the head through 535 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 12: the window of his car. The bullet entered just beneath 536 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 12: Markel's jawline. Police also released a photo of a cart 537 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 12: they are calling a vehicle of interest. It's a silver 538 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 12: Prius like car seen in the area. 539 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: It's Sean Combs. Did he and the real estate bros? 540 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: Charged with sex trafficking all over again? Millionaires who are 541 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: so arrogant they think they should be out on bond. 542 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: Forget about the crimes in this case an alleged murder 543 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: for hire. That's right, the millionaire monster in law accused 544 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: of masterminding the murder of her son in law. 545 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 3: When custody became an issue, claims. 546 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: Earwax, bad spaghetti, and lack of exercise are reasons enough 547 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: for her to get bond. Wait a minute, didn't she 548 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: try to flee to Vietnam? 549 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 3: Listen? 550 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 15: So my listens actually has said, you know, we've been 551 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 15: city Inna before with friends with on on vacation and 552 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 15: it really was like a place of peace. And so 553 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 15: he said, if we go an noun extradition country, then 554 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 15: if the law enforcement decided that they wanted to arrest 555 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 15: you or me, whatever both he said, then he said, 556 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 15: we won't be sitting in a foreign prison waiting months 557 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 15: to go back. We could buy a ticket and we 558 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 15: can go home. And my understanding was that I could 559 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 15: go home and I could turn myself in if that's 560 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 15: what they wanted. 561 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 3: What is she talking about, Joel Waldmin. 562 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 6: It's a great question, and I have no idea. I 563 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 6: wish I could answer that one for you, But again 564 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 6: she buys us. And by the way, for the life 565 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 6: of me, I mean, these are people with a lot 566 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 6: of financial means. They're taking off one week to the 567 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 6: day after their son is convicted on these first degree 568 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 6: murder and conspiracy charges, and they buy a one way ticket. 569 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 6: I mean, the jurors are going to hear this and 570 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 6: it is just consciousness of guilt, ringing and a dinging. 571 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 6: I mean, she should have at least bought a two 572 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 6: way ticket, but there is absolutely no way a jury 573 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 6: is going to buy that she went to a non 574 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 6: extradition country just for the fact that would make it 575 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 6: easier for herself to turn herself into officials back here Stateside. 576 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: If she's yes technical legal term, you know, let's get 577 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: real doctor Errett Eson with me, board certified forensic pathologists, 578 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: Doctor Ason. We know that Dan, the father of these 579 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: two little boys, dearly loved his children. He would not 580 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: even for a million dollars give them up custody or 581 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: let them move. He was very much fifty to fifty 582 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: a part of their lives. Okay, we know he was 583 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: alive when the neighbors came over. He was moving around 584 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: trying to communicate. What would he be what would he 585 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: have known off, what would he be aware at the 586 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: time of his death? 587 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 10: I mean he would have likely been aware that he 588 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 10: sustained some type of trauma. Apparently it was two men 589 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 10: who came up and fired two shots into his car, 590 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 10: and then he would have sustained the injuries. And you know, 591 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 10: he lived for a couple of hours. But from what 592 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 10: I was seeing in the articles, I just don't think 593 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 10: that he was very conscious at the time. I think 594 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 10: he was just like barely alive, just kind of barely 595 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 10: hanging on. So he may not have been. 596 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: Hanging on and trying to say something to the neighbor 597 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 1: moving around. And after all that, the mother in law 598 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: goes to court and starts crying about her own release. 599 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: Over the pasta and the earwax, I mean that is 600 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 1: a nerve. And the trip to Vietnam to seek peace. 601 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 16: Listen, when you were looking at places to go those 602 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 16: couple of days after Charlie Edelson's trial, you were specifically looking, though, 603 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 16: for countries that did not have extradition. 604 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 15: With the US for the reason I just told you. 605 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 16: Right, and the reason that you're saying that you were 606 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 16: looking for countries with no extradition was so that you 607 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 16: could get back faster in order to be arrested in 608 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 16: the US. 609 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 3: Wait a minute, granny ah Ah, Listen. 610 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 15: It's because I don't know, maybe we watched too much 611 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 15: TV or too many movies, But I've seen movies where 612 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 15: people are stuck in like third world prisons and waiting 613 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 15: and waiting and waiting, and my feeling was, this is 614 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 15: not what we want to happen. If the state says 615 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 15: they want us to come back, buy a ticket, we'll 616 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 15: come back on our own terms. We don't have to 617 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,280 Speaker 15: be sitting in a jail somewhere. We'll come back home 618 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 15: and turn ourselves. 619 00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 3: In to Robert Risbin. Have you ever heard anything like it? 620 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: And when you're watching somebody lie, she's like blinking her 621 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: eyes and looking around and pausing, trying to explain why 622 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 1: she had a one way ticket to Vietnam. 623 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,439 Speaker 9: She's trying to make it believable to the prosecutor. That's 624 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 9: just not happening. It's just not happening. 625 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 2: A tearful Donna Adelson begs a judge for bond, alleging 626 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 2: inmate assaults and extortion. 627 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 3: During her time so far behind bars. 628 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,439 Speaker 17: If we were asking for something lenient, I could see 629 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 17: the state's opposition. 630 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 16: But we're not. 631 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 17: We're asking for you to hold her outside of the 632 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 17: jail in the most stringent conditions she could possibly be monitored, 633 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 17: just to allow her to be with her attorneys, get 634 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 17: her doctor's appointments, and get ready for the trial that 635 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 17: her entire life. 636 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: Depends upon in her high rise luxury condo worth two 637 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 1: million dollars. 638 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 3: This is Diddy all over again. 639 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: Remember he wants out of MDC Metropolitan Detention Center on 640 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: a slew of federal sex trafficking charges and wanted to 641 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: be bumped up in his old digs luxury digs with 642 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: an ankle monitor, promising I won't contact any women.

The defense 644 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: attorney is asking for basically house arrest. 645 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 3: We're waiting to. 646 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,840 Speaker 1: See where that ultimately lands as a Scots trial. But 647 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: to jobel Waldman joining us surviving the survivor, what is 648 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 1: the strongest evidence against the mother in law. 649 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 6: I mean, there's a bunch you know, she's caught on 650 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 6: the so called bump tape. That is a FBI undercover 651 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 6: who meets her in front of that building, and basically 652 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 6: after that call, the bump is executed perfectly. She contacts 653 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 6: Charlie and this is what Tim Jentsman was talking about 654 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 6: earlier and she refers to them being onto the two 655 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 6: of us, so that implies that she is part of this. 656 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 6: Now back to Vietnam for a moment. There are What's 657 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 6: App messages and by the way, when she was arrested 658 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 6: at the airport with her husband, they also see some 659 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 6: cell phones and iPad, so we don't know exactly what's 660 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 6: on there, but some What's App messages have been revealed 661 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 6: to a company called Sun China Indo Travel, and she 662 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 6: was essentially asking this travel agency. She was saying, Hey, 663 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 6: I need to get to Vietnam as fast as possible. 664 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 6: This is right after the conviction of her son. She 665 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 6: says in a series of messages that get more and 666 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,760 Speaker 6: more frantic. I need a visa. I need an expedited visa. 667 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,240 Speaker 6: How do I get an expedited visa? Get me this visa? 668 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 6: These things are not going to look well for her 669 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 6: joining me. 670 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: Dave Matt Crimeonline dot Com investigative reporter. What is the 671 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 1: strongest evidence against the mother in law? 672 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 18: Actually, it's a phone call that was made when Charlie 673 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 18: Aedelson was convicted of the crime of murder. He was 674 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 18: on the phone talking to his mother and that's where 675 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 18: she is going off the deepen, suggesting a couple of 676 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 18: different things she needs to do. One of those suicide, 677 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 18: the other leave the country and get the place where 678 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,240 Speaker 18: she cannot be extradited. That's the big piece of evidence, 679 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 18: Thank god, Nancy. 680 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So wait a minute, doctor Judy Hoe for instant 681 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: Neu're a psychologist. When your grandchildren are down a dad, 682 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: the dad's murdered, why would you commit suicide instead of 683 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: rushing to their aid and helping them exactly? 684 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 3: That doesn't make any sense. 685 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 8: And this is just another example of just coming up 686 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 8: with ideas that clearly don't have any factual basis, no 687 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 8: experiential basis. Is not what a normal person would be 688 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 8: expected to do in a crisis like this, and it's 689 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 8: just all. 690 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 3: Part of the ploy to say, hey, look, we're we 691 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 3: have nothing to do with this. This has nothing to 692 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 3: do with us. Okay. 693 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: To Joel Walman, co host Surviving a Survivor, what is 694 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: the strongest evidence against the mother in law? 695 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean collectively, I would say what your previous 696 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 6: guests just said. These jailhouse calls after Charlie's conviction, which 697 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 6: was November sixth of twenty twenty three, Arlie and Donna 698 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,959 Speaker 6: speak for something like four or five hours a day 699 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 6: for the next seven days until she is ultimately ultimately arrested, 700 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 6: and they're talking about what happened. A lot of that 701 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 6: is incriminating. They're talking about their kind of their disgust 702 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,919 Speaker 6: at Wendy for not kind of giving and showing more 703 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 6: support during the trial. But then, as I mentioned previously, 704 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 6: there is something very well known within this case called 705 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 6: the bump where an FBI undercover basically approaches Donna Adelson 706 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 6: pretending to be these hitmen that she hired or at 707 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 6: least friends of these hitmen, and she just takes it, 708 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 6: you know, hooked line and sinker, and then is immediately 709 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 6: on the phone with Charlie basically saying at that point, 710 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 6: you know, they're on to the two of us essentially. 711 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 6: And then after her arrest, they have whatsapped messages and 712 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 6: Donna is what's happening a place called Indo Sun China Travel, 713 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 6: Indo Sun China Travel, and she is asking for preparations 714 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 6: to go to Vietnam. She wants a visa. Then she 715 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 6: messages again and says she wants an expedited visa and 716 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 6: how does she even expedite it beyond that, so the 717 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 6: urgency and this is all happening in the week after 718 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 6: Charlie's convicted until she is ultimately arrested. And then of 719 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 6: course it's that one way ticket to Vietnam. You weren't 720 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 6: planning to come back. But now she's making the case 721 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 6: that she picked that non extradition country so she could 722 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 6: turn herself in. I'd like to see a jury of 723 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 6: her peers by that we. 724 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: Wait as justice unfolds. And now we remember an American 725 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: hero Trooper Tomorrow Buccie, Massachusetts State Police, passed away in 726 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: the line of duty, survived by mother Meryl, stepfather Jim, 727 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: father Anthony.
