Donna Adelson Files for New Trial; Wants to Interview Jurors

The Donna Adelson new trial request is making headlines as her legal team files a motion seeking a new trial and permission to interview jurors following her conviction in the Dan Markel murder-for-hire case. In this episode of the STS Podcast, we break down what the Donna Adelson new trial request means, why her defense believes juror interviews are necessary, and how the prosecution may respond. The move adds another dramatic twist to a case that continues to dominate true crime news.
