FL - FSU Law Professor Dan Markel Murdered by Hitmen-Donna Adelson Upcoming Trial - *5 Guilty* #28

[Knitpicker]

Help me understand. Why did she need Jeff to confirm the TV was actually broken? Assuming Wendi was in on the TV alibi, I seriously don’t understand what would be the purpose of forcing him (according to Jeff) to watch TV on a broken screen? So at some future date, after the murder, he would testify that the TV was actually broken? I am struggling to understand why people make this argument.

As a witness that the TV was actually not functioning hence the need for a service call. (Actually proves guilt)
But anyone with half a brain knows you cant fix a cracked TV screen.

Do you actually think Wendi thought a cracked TV screen can be fixed?

Does it matter what she thought? Issuing a warranty claim for electronic equipment with physical damage is probably a lot more common than you think. Although physical damage is NOT covered under the warranty of any electronics equipment like a flat panel display, MANY times the consumer plays dumb, files a warranty claim and it goes through. Does it really surprise you the Adelson’s would attempt to file a warranty claim on a damaged display? I known the Markels wouldn’t do that but the Adelsons aren’t exactly a family that is a model of good ethical standards. The fact that they tried to get one over and file the claim NEVER surprised me… and yes, it could have been a silly alibi or simply an attempt to get a new flat panel before Wendi’s big move.

She said it wasn’t under warranty. And that she paid for the service call.

Your comment about her filing a phoney claim also further proves her guilt.

Best Buy ( or The Geek Squad) isn’t stupid enough to cover an uncovered unfixable TV screen, just because someone thinks their techs are stupid enough fall for someone who attempted to TRY and claim the TV had been under a warranted damage. They would know when they got there what the deal was (And they did!)

I don’t buy your theory. But keep trying!

They were going to throw away 13K a month on that ICON blue tinted windows-can’t see a thing out of them-luxury condo.
I think they would have replaced the broken TV June 11th when “someone” threw something at it.

If Donna really loved her grandsons, she would have replaced the TV THAT day.
Would she really want her sunshine’s suffering?

Yes, in one of the trials Cappleman asked her “who paid for service call’ and Wendi likely misspoke and said “I did”. Where was it ever stated it wasn’t under warranty? Physical damage wasn’t covered under the warranty, but the display (as far as I know) was under the extended warranty – per court testimony.

Okay, a phony claim proves guilt? Good thing you aren’t a prosecutor

As I said, it shouldn’t be a surprise the Adelson’s attempted to file a warranty claim for a display that had physical damage.

If Donna really loved he grandsons, she wouldn't have murdered their father.

“If Donna really loved he grandsons, she wouldn't have murdered their father.“

We finally agree
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

As this relates to WA and her saying "I did"....to coin a phrase by Tony Montana from the movie Scarface... "I always tell the truth even when I lie"

Hoping someone knows the truth on this subject.
When Wendi left the divorce papers, as per the last trial she was in Miami for 2 weeks.
I remember on the stand Wendi disputing this saying that Dan saw the kids the NEXT DAY.

Previously, I had thought she stayed with a friend for a few days.
And he didn’t know where they were.
Regardless, either Wendi isn't being forthright in her story or Dan wasn’t.

Does anyone know the truth about this?
Did Dan see the kids the next day?(He did know where she and the kids were)
Was she staying local for a few days? (And he did not know where the kids were)
Was she with her family in S Florida for 2 weeks?(And he did not know where the kids were)

My memory, during Donna's trial it came up that she rented the apartment for Wendi using Donna's maiden name. The statement I have heard is that Dan did not see his sons for several weeks until it would agree to several stipulations under this duress. I don't recall if this came up in a specific trial.

I believe you are correct

The pair separated in 2012 after Wendi took their children to her parents' house in South Florida while Dan was away on a business trip, per ABC.

Ok Thanks. Yes the apartment came up -that slipped my mind.
I was more focused on whether she was in Miami those 2 weeks after she left the papers.
There have been a few accounts of what happened but I clearly remembered Wendi saying on the stand “he saw them the next day”.
So then that isn’t true right? Now I will have to find it in her testimony!
Thanks !

Yes thats what I thought- however at the last trial (I think!) when Georgia said that Dan did not know where the kids were, Wendi aggressively replied “He saw them the next day”. That is what confused me

Would you be willing to listen to “Untold true crime files” channel- title “How Wendi Adelson incriminated herslef at Donna Adelsons trial”-6 days ago?
I think you would like the presentation style.

 

[Weki]

No, the defense will cite case law to show that driving along a road is not a crime.

Right!

It's a mistake to look at all the previous trials and assume that the state will be able to sail through at a Wendi trial. Those other lawyers didn't have much to work with. Fulford was so desperate she went after Rob Adelson! Donna and Charlie basically convicted themselves due to their inability to STOP TALKING. Like I said previously, as far as we know, Wendi's voice will not be heard on any wire taps in that courtroom. Zero evidence of her paying money to anybody. These are the two major elements that convicted the others. JMO

Does it bother you that at previous trials Wendi said the TV was “cracked” and in Donnas trial she said one of the boys “touched” it?
Charlie told Georgia “You’d have to ask Lincoln” he suggested Lincoln threw a remote control at it.

Someone else said a toy was thrown at it (No patience to look up who and at what trial)

Jeffrey said it looked like someone punched it.

Wendy going from “a crack” to a “touch”. Not sus?
