A Deadly Divorce: The Adelson Family Conspiracy

Dan Markel, a Florida State University professor, was assassinated in his driveway in 2014 as the result of a vicious custody battle with his ex-wife’s family, the Adelsons, who were determined to move Wendi and the children to Miami. The murder was revealed to be a hired hit orchestrated by Wendi’s brother, Charlie, and mother, Donna Adelson, who used an intermediary to connect with members of a Miami gang. Over a decade of investigation led to multiple life sentences for the conspirators, including Charlie and eventually Donna, effectively destroying both families involved in a tragic pursuit of "an eye for an eye".
