GUILTY FL - Dan Markel, 41, FSU Law Professor, Tallahassee, 18 July 2014 - #6 *arrests*

[Miss Elizabeth]

That could be interesting...Wendi? Rivera's wife? Donna? Someone who works at the practise?

~E

Who could be the new witness? Sounds like a woman as it reads "the defense wants to block her testimony". Any guesses?

CA's baby mamma, present/past girlfriend?
Dan M's girlfriend, neighbour, sister/mother?
speculation.

KM cellmate?

 

[Mickey Mouse]

Looks like Charlie was sued in a paternity case in Broward.

Bummer for him, the guys that can fix that for him are in jail. /s

 

[Marvin Berry]

KM cellmate?

On Sept. 3, prosecutors filed an amended response to demand for discovery naming Amy L. Manka as a witness. She has a history of legal issues and was recently arrested for drug possession (links below). Entirely plausible that she was KM's cell mate at some point.

Seems like she'd be reliable...

Man's best fiend?

 

[wildebeest]

Seems like she'd be reliable...

Sounds promising...Depends on how she comes across as a witness. She wouldn’t be the first cellmate to spill.

 

[Kavya01]

Just crossing fingers she didn't get a "deal" for her testimony so the defense will not paint her as an opportunistic liar and the Prosecution as scumbags for bringing her in

The Dan Markel Case: Trial Approaches
When will the trial of Sigfredo Garcia and Katherine Magbanua get underway? And what's the latest about Dan Markel's ex-wife, Wendi Adelson?

Is it finally here? After years of continuances and delays, and more than five long years after Dan Markel’s killing, could (some of) his murderers finally face justice?

It would make sense if it was this person with slightly different name, imo, speculation.

SG has been referred to as a DP case in numerous posts. But even though none of a the As have been indicted yet, DA and CA have been said to be merely life sentence material when they most likely will be charged. How is this so?

Have a wonderful relaxing time Niner. Just a wonderful, restorative, relaxing time. this all will keep and we will just be super excited when you get back and appreciate you even more!

What does "DP" mean in this context?

Death Penalty, I believe.
