EP252: Murder for Hire?

On July 18, 2014, around 11 am, Dan Markel was driving home, after dropping his two children off at preschool, and visiting the gym for a morning workout. Dan, a law professor at Florida State University, was in the middle of a bitter divorce and custody battle with his wife, Wendy Adelson (who ALSO was a law professor at FSU). Distracted because he was on a phone call while driving home, Dan didn't notice the silver-green Prius following him home. After pulling into his driveway, his neighbor heard a gunshot. Listen to this week's episode to hear what happened to Dan Markel and who was behind it (and it may not be who you think!)
