The Murder of Dan Markel: The Sentencing of Donna Adelson

Correction: Wendi, not Charles, is the youngest Adelson sibling.

On July 18, 2014, hired hitmen named Sigfredo Garcia and Luis Rivera hunted down law professor Dan Markel and shot him in Tallahassee, Florida. He died the next day.

Katherine Magbanua, the mother of Garcia's children, was implicated in the plot, as was her former boyfriend Charles Adelson, Markel's former brother-in-law. Garcia, Charles Adelson, and Magbanua received exentsive sentences, with Rivera acting as a cooperating witness and cutting a deal. Most recently, Donna Adelson, the victim's former mother-in-law, was convicted of first degree murders, conspiracy, and solicitation on September 4, 2025.

On October 13, 2025, she was sentenced to life in prison. We will talk about the sentencing hearing in this case.

A Conversation with the Catfish Cops

A Conversation with the Catfish Cops

After it became increasingly clear that there was a catfish element to the Delphi murders, we decided to periodically feature interviews with professionals who specialize in that field– so that we can all be better educated about this troubling subject. This week we talk with Tony Godwin and Brandon Poor. Both men are Texas based police officers who specialize in Internet Crimes Against Children or ICAC. They work tough cases involving pedophiles and- as you will hear- they speak with the knowledge and insight that only comes through direct experience. They are also podcasters. They host CATFISH COPS, a program where they explore the topic of child exploitation with depth, insight and compassion. We highly recommend it. And we appreciate them taking time away from their busy schedules to talk with us.= = =We’re thrilled to try out our new sponsor HelloFresh, America’s #1 meal kit.

The Delphi Murders: A Conversation with Brett and Alice from the Prosecutors

The Delphi Murders: A Conversation with Brett and Alice from the Prosecutors

People have a lot of questions about what’s been happening in the Delphi case. What does it mean that Kegan Kline was temporarily transferred into the custody of the Indiana State Police? Is it possible Kegan Kline has made some sort of deal with prosecutors? Why would prosecutors even consider making a deal? Why did it take so long to arrest Kegan Kline after the raid on his home in 2017? And what about that probable cause affidavit to search Ron Logan’s property– does that mean Logan is guilty?We decided to go to the experts to get some answers. Brett and Alice have a great deal of experience in criminal law and co host the Prosecutors, a popular podcast where they break down true crime cases in a fascinating and accessible way. We really appreciate the terrific legal analysis they apply to the cases they discuss– that is why we decided we really wanted to talk with them about the recent developments in Delphi.Follow the Murder Sheet on social media:FacebookTwitterInstagramAnd send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC .See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
