Matriarch vs. Daughter?! | Donna Defense Shades Wendi! - Adelson Trial Opening Statements

The trial of Donna Adelson is finally underway. Prosecutors say the 75-year-old matriarch helped orchestrate the murder of FSU law professor Dan Markel, her former son-in-law, in a bitter custody battle. In opening statements, the state painted Donna as a controlling mastermind—while the defense insisted she’s being scapegoated for her son Charlie’s crime. Witnesses, crime scene photos, and even Dan’s neighbor’s chilling 911 call set the tone for Day 1. And in a stunning twist, the defense pointed the finger at Wendi Adelson.
