this has nothing to do with race and everything to do with greed and stupidity. the "poor brown people" could be free and/or have sweetheart deals if they chose to do the right thing and sing against the masterminds.

Yes and not do this in the first place. Bad actions breed bad outcomes. You never get good from bad. When will they and everyone else who does this learn?

Seems that Michael Weinstein, Charlie Adelson's lifelong friend and lawyer/fixer is also a number fudger who intimidates those who question him. By show of hands, who is surprised?

Like attracts like. No surprise Charlie has equally unscrupulous, slimy friends. I wish they'd just arrest that *** already.

Perhaps we all can try and look at the bright side of this particular issue with the masterminds...They haven't fooled us and neither will they fool a jury once they are finally subjected to a trial down the road. The State only gets one shot, unless there is a mistrial as with the case of KM. In the mean time the Lawyers are laughing all the way to the bank. I feel so sorry for DM's mother at the way this whole situation is wearing her down and how her "certain unalienable Rights" have been violated in our country.
 
KM's refusal to cooperate is hard to understand. Is she feeling confident of an acquittal in the second trial?

Dan Markel's two sons are around 10 & 11 years old. In just a few years, they will be reading about all this on the internet and they will know that their mother, uncle, and grandparents conspired to murder their father and to keep them from their paternal grandparents.

IMO this is KM's thinking -

if KM gets acquitted, she gets her freedom and pockets $1M+ from the alleged masterminds. her defense is being paid for too and they are "guiding" her.

if KM is found guilty, she can still cut a deal with the State, albeit not as good of one.

Six years after his death, friends of Dan Markel still demanding justice
''TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - Sunday marked the sixth anniversary of Florida State University professor Dan Markel’s death. His friends have formed a group called “Justice for Dan,” asking for all involved in his murder to be indicted.''

''Led by Solomon, the group started a petition asking for state attorney Jack Campbell to file charges against Dan Markel’s in-laws, the Adelson family.''

“Everyone agrees and the evidence is overwhelming that Charlie and Donna Adelson, the brother and mother of Dan’s ex-wife Wendy Adelson, are responsible for this murder and yet they’ve remained free,” exclaimed Solomon.''

''Justice for Dan feels it would be a huge injustice not to get their friend’s case right.''

“It would really be a cruel irony if the state attorney’s office in Tallahassee was not able to do justice by Dan Markel, a criminal justice professor at Florida State,” said Solomon.''

my speakers are broken, so can't hear this.

In my notes I have this:

7/6/20: Judge Kevin Carroll has been assigned to KM's trial due to Hankinson's retirement.

So Judge Robert Wheeler replaced Judge Carroll? TIA! :)
