A judge told Wendi Adelson she couldn't move her children to South Florida. Her mother Donna allegedly offered Dan Markel a million dollars to change his mind. He said no. Prosecutors say the family's answer was a contract killing — two hitmen from Miami, a payment trail through the dental office, and a grandmother who signed every check and allegedly washed the cash.Five people are now in prison for the murder of FSU law professor Dan Markel. The shooter and the driver. The woman who connected the hitmen to the money. Charlie Adelson, who took the stand and told a jury he was the victim of extortion — a layaway plan through his mother's dental office that the jury rejected in three hours. And Donna Adelson, the matriarch who tried to flee to Vietnam, confessed to a jailhouse informant, wrote a handwritten script to buy false testimony, and told a sentencing judge she'd never had a parking ticket.This is the complete Adelson murder-for-hire story in one episode — from the custody fight that started it to the ex-girlfriend who flipped, the Dolce Vita tape that caught Charlie in his own words, the bodycam on the jet bridge, and the question that won't go away: what did Wendi Adelson know, and when did she know it? Her ex-boyfriend's testimony says she knew five days before Dan was shot. She denies everything. One of them lied under oath.
