This tragic case bears striking similarities to the Dan Markel murder, where Donna Adelson allegedly played a key role in orchestrating the murder-for-hire of her son-in-law amid custody battles. The Restelli case, involving tracking devices, manipulated travel, and a staged crime scene, echoes the calculated moves seen in Markel’s murder.
