My point is that Jack Campbell himself just wasted his, the court's, the jury's, and the PD's time prosecuting an even worse case. I suspect it's because the defendant was a poor, old, black man, and not a rich, young, white woman.
Campbell personally bricked a high-profile murder trial. His office could literally do no worse trying WA. I still have no strong opinion on the strength of the case. But his willingness to prosecute a poor, old, black man vs. a rich, young, white woman is at least interesting...
Any appellate lawyers here?
Everett told Adelson he "had no choice" re accepting the jury. The state argued that Adelson had to renew his objection at that time. The case law cited at argument stated that the defense "should" renew its objection or else it's waived.
Any legs to an argument...
Counterargument:
1. She knows she'd be extradited for a murder trial.
2. Moving to Texas wouldn't help with that, but it gets her away from the Florida Markel Act and the risk of her in-laws winning a wrongful death lawsuit and visitation rights.
3. She's already fled from the real legal risk-...
Two important facts-
UM is nowhere near a top tier school (certainly not 15 years ago), not even in Florida (UF, FSU are). It's where people with money but no credentials go. She probably had great grades but a shitty LSAT. Why go from undergrad at Brandeis to UM if you can get into a better...
She's still using the name Wendi Adelson with the Florida Bar and the Florida Secretary of State.
It's a violation of Bar rules to not keep the former accurate and a criminal violation to make false statements in corporate filings. Whatever she thinks of her family, it has never seemed like she...
This could be anything. Practice for another trial, orientation for this fall's interns, testing new chairs. There are at least two dozen lawyers in their office.
Ms. Markel's plugging her book during the VIS seemed really gross to me. Even using the full, eleven word title. Surprised she didn't project an Amazon QR code on the wall.
Regardless of whether the plea rumor is true or false, maybe somebody leaked it to Jansen to see if he could keep a secret or be a useful distributor of misinformation?
If they are not going after one of the other Adelsons, maybe it's one of the previous lawyers? If one of them was witness tampering, etc., the state and the judge who granted the wire tap warrant would likely want to go after him or her.
JP Keener was a creepy young teacher at JP Taravella High School in the early 90s. Unsurprising he "kept in touch" with a student he may have perceived of as pretty.
There is simply no reason, other than sadism, a desire for extra-judicial "justice," and perceived cost savings for pre-conviction detainment and transportation to be as uncomfortable as Leon County (and most others) have made it. Let this level of treatment wait until she, or anyone else, is...
I am not attempting to negatively characterize being on the spectrum. However, I have met Dr. Adelson more than once. He displays none of the traits usually associated with being on the spectrum. Smart, funny, engaging, healthy group of friends, etc.
