Donna Adelson’s Son & Wendy’s Ex DESTROY Her in Court!

The Trial Of Donna Adelson | The Murder Of Dan Markel

Donna Adelson’s Son & Wendy’s Ex DESTROY Her in Court!
The Donna Adelson trial just delivered its most explosive testimony yet — not from investigators or experts, but from the people who knew her best. Her oldest son, Dr. Robert Adelson, and her daughter Wendy’s ex-boyfriend, Professor Jeffrey Lacasse, both took the stand, and their words could haunt Donna for the rest of her life.
Robert Adelson painted a portrait of his mother as the controlling matriarch of the family. He told jurors that Donna was “very involved” in Wendy’s divorce, deeply enmeshed in her children’s personal lives, and — most chillingly — dismissive after Dan Markel’s murder. When Robert asked her what she thought had happened, Donna told him flatly: “I don’t know and I don’t care. It doesn’t concern me.” He also revealed that his mother warned him not to speak to the FBI after the murder — advice he rejected.
Then came Jeffrey Lacasse, who recounted disturbing conversations with Wendy Adelson just days before the murder. On July 13th, 2014, Wendy told him “the only way she’d ever relocate is if something happened to Danny.” She went further, confiding that her brother Charlie had looked into “all options” to deal with the “Danny problem,” including hiring a hitman for $15,000. Lacasse said she was deadly serious — “it made my stomach flip.”
He also described Wendy pulling her children’s artwork off the wall days before the murder, her obsessive questioning about his exact travel plans for July 18th, and her confession about a “celebration dinner” with Charlie where she vomited at the table.
Together, Robert and Lacasse gave jurors a devastating view of Donna Adelson’s influence, the family’s secretive culture, and the obsession with relocation that prosecutors say led to Dan Markel’s death.
Watch as we break down every shocking detail of this testimony — and what it means for the fate of Donna Adelson.
