"MONSTER-IN-LAW" DONNA ADELSON LIES TIL BITTER END, LEARNS HER FATE IN COURT FOR MASTERMINDING SON-IN-LAW'S MURDER

"MONSTER-IN-LAW" DONNA ADELSON LIES TIL BITTER END, LEARNS HER FATE IN COURT FOR MASTERMINDING SON-IN-LAW'S MURDER

Donna Adelson receives a life sentence for her role in the murder of former son-in-law Dan Markel. After nearly three weeks of testimony, a jury takes just three hours to find the 75-year-old guilty of all three charges levied against her.

Adelson is convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, solicitation to commit killing, and first-degree murder in the hit on her former son-in-law Dan Markel.

Adelson has filed a motion for a new trial, claiming multiple instances of jury misconduct, bias from the judge, and a lack of evidence to support the verdict.

The 18-page motion comes just two weeks after Adelson’s conviction and includes a request to interview two of the jurors who decided her fate.

Adelson accuses the jury foreperson, juror number seven, of failing to follow the judge’s instructions on speaking out about the case.
