Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime…

Attorneys for Shanna Gardner continued to argue in court that she should be released on bond ahead of her trial in the murder-for-hire plot

Shanna Gardner is accused of plotting to kill her ex-husband, Jared Bridegan, with the help of her second husband Mario Fernandez and Henry Tenon.

Police say Tenon placed a tire on a Jacksonville street, causing Bridegan to stop with his young daughter in the car, before he fired several times at close range killing Bridegan.

Tenon has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the death of Jared Bridegan.

Prosecutors allege that Tenon was paid from a trust fund funded by Gardner’s parents. Judge London Kite has yet to rule on whether to grant Gardner’s latest request for bond. She’s due back in court Sept. 23 for another hearing.

Gardner and Fernandez Saldana face the death penalty

New documents reveal Murdered Microsoft executive Jared Bridegan got into an alleged argument with his ex-wife and her second husband – who are accused of plotting his murder in February 2022 – at a Church of Jesus Christ and Latter-day Saints before his death, a witness told police.

Bridegan was fatally shot in front of his car after coming across a tire in the middle of a secluded road, which prosecutors believe was a setup, in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. His then-2-year-old daughter was in the back seat at the time.

Today, we look at a document dump by the State.

Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime…

Another Florida story eerily similar to Dan Markel and the Adelsons.

On the evening of Feb. 16, 2022, Jared Bridegan had just dropped off his 9-year-old twin son and daughter at his ex-wife's - Shanna Gardner’s -home in Jacksonville Beach and was headed back to St. Augustine where he lived.

With his 2-year-old daughter from a new wife in the car, he stopped because of a tire on the road near the exit.

In what police believe was a planned attack, he was shot multiple times as he apparently attempted to move the tire. His vehicle's hazard lights were still blinking with his daughter sitting in her car seat unharmed.

Today, ex-wife Shanna Gardner is back in a Jacksonville courtroom with a possible trial date to be set.

With his 2-year-old daughter from a new wife in the car, he stopped because of a tire on the road near the exit.

But many more families were inexorably damaged because of what transpired that fateful day.

It’s not unlike the Dan Markel murder who was murdered in a plot arranged by now convicted killer Charlie Adelson - Dan’s ex brother in law.

Tonight psychologists discuss the similarities between both cases.

Dr. Garrison earned a Psy.D. in clinical psychology from the Georgia School of Professional Psychology (GSPP). He has been cited for his expertise in psychology in numerous media outlets including Business Insider, Forbes, Vice, Huffington Post, Yahoo News, Real Simple, Fatherly, and others.

Dr. Garrison has extensively studied the language and culture of South Korea for over a decade.

He also hosts his own YouTube channel Dr. G Explains.

Ildiko Tabori was featured in the A&E documentary about another dysfunctional family … the Menendez Brothers.

She received her PhD in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology at Los Angeles in 2003 and has been a practicing licensed psychologist and neuropsychologist since 2004.

Dr. Roger Rhoades is a Senior Therapist at the P.A.C.E. Center in Greenville, South Carolina specializing in dysfunctional relationships.

He’s worked with inmates inside prisons.
