The Former Friends Who Testified Against The Adelsons in the Murder for Hire of Dan Markel
Former friends of the Adelson family turned against them in court as they testified in trials to paint a clearer picture of who the Adelsons really are--and what their intentions were. Ryan Fitzpatrick and Yindra Velazquez took the stand with testimony against Donna Adelson—convicted of orchestrating the murder of her former son-in-law Dan Markel—and Charlie Adelson, convicted as her co-conspirator in the murder-for-hire plot. Once part of their circle, these witnesses now expose the shocking truths that continue to unravel the Adelson legacy. This trial is another step closer to justice for Dan Markel, but the road to full justice may not be over yet... #AdelsonTrial #DonnaAdelson #CharlieAdelson #JusticeForDanMarkel #TrueCrimeThanks for supporting the show and being a part of #STSNation!
