Join us for live coverage of Donna Adelson's court hearing. Donna is accused of orchestrating the 2014 murder-for-hire of her former son-in-law, FSU law professor Dan Markel.

Welcome to Surviving The Survivor, the live daily show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime.

The Donna Adelson murder trial centers on the 2014 killing of Dan Markel, a Florida State University law professor, in a murder-for-hire allegedly orchestrated by the Adelsons. The state says motives stems from a custody dispute between Dan Markel and his ex-wife, Wendi Adelson, which led to a bitter a legal battle over their two children. Prosecutors believe Donna Adelson, motivated by a desire to have Wendi and her grandchildren closer to her in South Florida, conspired with her son, Charlie Adelson, to have her ex son-in-law Dan Markel killed. Charlie Adelson was convicted of first-degree murder, conspiracy, and solicitation of murder in 2023 and sentenced to life in prison. Donna Adelson was arrested days later in November 2023 at Miami International Airport while attempting to board a flight to Vietnam, a country without extradition to the United States. She faces charges of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and solicitation of murder. Her trial is scheduled to begin in August of 2025.

Charlie Adelson, already convicted in the Dan Markel murder and serving life, has filed a 91-page appeal. We break down what it reveals — and what it could mean for Donna, Wendi, and Harvey Adelson.

#STSNation,

Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime on trending criminal cases and this story is one that is close to our hearts.

It’s the case that started it all for STS — the shocking murder-for-hire of FSU law professor Dan Markel. And we've been covering #JusticeforDanMarkel for a while now...

Convicted killer Charlie Adelson has filed a 91-page appeal seeking to overturn his life sentence — even as his mother, Donna Adelson, awaits trial and a new investigation is unfolding behind the scenes. Charlie Adelson is the brother of Wendi Adelson, Dan Markel's ex-wife, who was in the middle of a custody battle when Dan Markel was shot and killed after pulling into the driveway of his Tallahassee, Florida home in 2014. Charlie Adelson was convicted of hiring Latin King gang members to take out his ex brother-in-law, Dan Markel.

A new trial date has been set for Donna Adelson — August 19. But a secret investigation and recent wiretaps could have major consequences for the rest of the Adelson family.

#STSNation,

Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime on trending criminal cases.

This is the twisted murder-for-hire that started it all — the case of Dan Markel. Dan Markel was shot and killed moments after he pulled up his driveway and into his garage. He died the next day. Now, almost 11 years later the story is still unraveling as alleged co-conspirators, like Donna Adelson, are going on trial one by one.

Markel was killed in Tallahassee, Florida, in 2014, in a murder for hire in what prosecutors say was motivated by child custody issues with Markel's ex-wife, Wendi Adelson. Wendi Adelson's brother, Charlie Adelson, was convicted of the murder of Dan Markel in 2023 just days before his mother, Donna Adelson, was also arrested.

We’re now learning that Donna Adelson’s trial, which was supposed to start in June 2025, is now set to begin August 19, but major questions still remain.

A hearing is scheduled this Friday, and at the center of it all:

• An apparent secret investigation involving new wiretaps that went through February 2024

• Speculation is mounting that the case may expand beyond Donna and Charlie

• What could this mean for the other Adelsons like Wendi and Harvey?

Donna Adelson’s murder trial may be delayed again—this time over a secret wiretap and new side investigation. Is the state hiding something… or did they catch something even more damning?

⸻

#STSNation,

Welcome to Surviving the Survivor — the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime.

The murder trial of Donna Adelson, already riddled with twists, has taken yet another wild turn.

In an April 30 hearing, her defense team revealed the state secretly launched a side investigation involving a mysterious informant and over 30 wiretapped calls.

The defense claims attorney-client conversations may have been intercepted, violating her constitutional rights — and they’ve barely scratched the surface of reviewing more than 32 hours of audio and 100,000+ emails.

Judge Stephen Everett hasn’t ruled yet on delaying the June trial, but even the prosecution admits they wouldn’t be prejudiced by a continuance. Is this a legitimate delay tactic… or has new evidence come to light?

We’ll break it all down with expert guests and bring you inside the courtroom drama like no one else can.

#STSNation!

Welcome to the show that promises to bring you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime on trending criminal cases.

Wendi Adelson once called her ex-husband, Dan Markel, her “latex spouse” in a writer’s workshop—not long after his murder.

Now her novel, This Is Our Story, is potentially at the center of her mother Donna Adelson’s upcoming murder-for-hire trial.

As the judge weighs whether Wendi’s novel should be admissible as evidence, STS dives deep into its pages.

We’re joined by two leading psychologists and a sharp legal mind to analyze Wendi’s fiction—and whether it offers a disturbing window into real-life motives and family dynamics.

Did the novel foreshadow Dan’s murder? Is Lily, the main character, actually Wendi? And what does it say that she removed the Markel name from her children post-murder?

Get ready for a chilling breakdown of blurred lines between fiction and real-life tragedy.

Donna Adelson was just back in court, and her June murder trial looms large.

With Charlie Adelson already convicted in the brutal murder-for-hire plot that took out FSU Law Professor Dan Markel, the pressure is mounting. Wendi Adelson—somehow untouched by charges—remains the mystery piece in this twisted puzzle.

Could Donna flip on Charlie to save herself? Could Charlie turn on Wendy? Is this once-powerful family starting to crumble under the weight of their secrets?

With jury selection set for June 3, these rulings could be devastating for the Adelson matriarch. What does this mean for her upcoming murder trial? Our top legal experts break it all down!

Donna Adelson and her defense team filed motions to have jail house calls removed from the trial's evidence and is asking that she allowed to go on house arrest until her trial begins in June.

Donna Adelson will go on trial for the murder of his ex son-in-law Dan Markel who was shot and killed in 2014 in a murder for hire plot. Dan Markel was married to Wendi Adelson, Donna's only daughter.

This is a true crime case out of Tallahassee, Florida where Donna now awaits her trial in the Leon County Jail.

#STSNation,

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

In a bombshell development, the trial of Donna Adelson, accused in the 2014 murder-for-hire killing of Dan Markel, went off the rails on the first day of jury selection after her lead attorney, Dan Rashbaum of Miami, withdrew over conflicts of interest.

Rashbaum represented Adelson's son, Charlie Adelson, who was convicted last year on murder charges and sentenced to life in prison. Donna Adelson opted to hire Rashbaum represent her despite the fact that her legal needs may be at odds with those of her son, who has an appeal pending with the 1st District Court of Appeal.

After Rashbaum’s move Tuesday afternoon, Leon Circuit Judge Stephen Everett announced that the trial will be continued and that prospective jurors would be sent home.

Now Dona has a new set of attorneys …

Professor Jo Potuto is the Richard H Larson Professor of Constitutional Law emerita at the University of Nebraska College of Law.

Professor Potuto has also taught at the law colleges of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Oregon, Arizona, Rutgers, Seton Hall, and Cardozo.

Stephen was Dan Markel’s post divorce attorney.

#STSNation,

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

Just three weeks after Donna Adelson’s murder trial unexpectedly unraveled when her lead lawyer withdrew, the judge presiding over the case ordered that her two new attorneys can’t represent her either.

Leon Circuit Judge Stephen Everett on Monday issued an order disqualifying Robert “Alex” Morris and Adam Komisar over actual and potential conflicts of interest.

The order marked another twist in the murder of Dan Markel, the 41-year-old Florida State law professor and father of two who was fatally shot at his home on July 18, 2014. The two hired killers, an accomplice and Adelson’s son, Charlie Adelson, have all been convicted on murder charges in the years since.

Why Did Wendi Adelson & Dan Markel Divorce End in Murder?

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.

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. Donna Adelson the family matriarch also sits in the same Tallahassee jail on the exact same charges

Tonight we examine why do some divorces wind up in murder.
