IMO, DA had WA convinced the only way to fix the issue was to eliminate DM and WA gave the green light to do so. CA just put the plan in motion. In one of the emails DA sent to WA, DA asked WA to become an actress, play the part with the words "I know you can do it". Once again my opinion, but WA knew exactly what was going down, by whom, when and where. The "why" had already been determined. She deserves an Oscar for her "performance" in the police interview.
The whole TV repair, liquor store route, possible Lacasse framing, telling JL she needed a week to think, etc was all part of the master plan. She is just as evil as DA.
"This TV will cost about 5". Such a bizarre thing to say. Why not a lampshade or a giraffe? I think everyone can accept that this statement by Donna to convey in code to Charlie that someone approached her on the street with paperwork about the murder of Dan Markel. And the people who approached her were asking for 5 thousands dollars. TV = Dan Markel's murder. Or maybe TV = the people we hired to murder Dan Markel.
If we can all accept that the TV is code for Dan Markel's murder in April of 2016, is it that much of a leap to suggest that it also meant his murder in July of 2014?
And, what is happening with that TV in June and July of 2014? Jeff Lacasse just testified that the TV was broken - like someone (unlikely the kids) struck it with a fist or object - in the week of June 11-18th, 2014. Which is one week after the first failed murder trip. He offered several times to go buy her a new one. He tried to set up the DVD player in her bedroom so they could watch movies on a normal TV and she adamantly refused all these offers. She forced her kids to suffer through watching a shattered and distorted TV for a month. Strange.
The morning of the murder, her mom texts her to tell her that Best Buy is coming over to fix her TV set in the living room but to confirm with them if she can't make the appointment. And instead of texting her mom back about this TV appointment, she texts Charlie "This is so sweet". Deletes that text. Despite the fact that it was her mom organizing this appointment, she calls Charlie out of the blue to update him on the TV repair. For 18 minutes.
Everyone thinks of this TV repair as a weird alibi but I don't think of it that way. She doesn't need an alibi cause its a murder for hire. What she would need to do, is make sure her kids aren't in the line of fire. And what is she doing? She's arguing with Dan Markel over text about the kids. He has them until 4:30pm that day and she wants to take them early. He wants to take them swimming. Dan Markel leaves Wendi a voicemail 20 minutes before she talks to Charlie and says he will be at the gym until 10:30am (i.e., the kids are already at Daycare).
And everyone assumes that her driving right up to the crime scene is extremely odd behaviour. But is it? Dan would not let her pull the kids out of daycare early. She was not getting them back until 4:30. He was going to take them out of daycare to go swimming sometime early that afternoon. She went there to see if anything happened yet or whether she needed to do something on her end to keep them out of danger. IMO.

Agree about Wendi's email to Dan confirming he would be in Tallahassee July 13-18th is a big piece of new evidence. Another one is her agreeing to back out of buying a house after talking to Charlie on Halloween. The very same day Charlie approached KM.
Another interesting pattern is that the crazy and deranged emails from Donna are all in the June/July of 2013 period. They seem to drop off the map once the plan to murder Dan Markel had taken shape. Instead of crazy emails, we start getting code messages about Harvey's 70th bday gift. Dan is filing motions in court to restrict Donna's access and....nothing? Wendi just forwards her the motion. No response from Donna. Wonder why?
