All my admiration, sympathy and support to Ruth Markel! Her loss, pain and unsurmountable resilience in adverse situations are only present in the life of remarkable individuals like her !
My heart goes out to this woman and her family l hope they get everyone involved in this including the mother and the brother in law.l often wonder how do these people sleep at night.
Some of these comments make me sick, this woman is in deep sorrow and pain. Just look at the bags under her eyes, the hands shaking while she reads, stumbling over words. She understands the law and is following what the judge requested. When reading from a paper, it's hard to show the expression on your face unless you are a trained actress. She wants justice served. She is fighting to be able to see her grandchildren. I see the pain in her face and I pray that the whole family is taken down and looking dirbthebday each of them have to take the stand..
Whatever your personal opinion may be, please remember that this is a real case, not a true crime TV show. Be respectful of her irreversible loss. Why not think that she's made progress in processing her grief and was able to handle her emotions gracefully in public.
as a Mother of a murder victim I can tell you reading your VIS is the hardest thing to do, myself I had to practice in front of my friends so I could do it in court. My heart breaks for her
Through😢your unimaginably grief your words are so incredibly profound, and the pride you have for your son and grandchildren is so evident. I am so sorry for your loss what a complete senseless tragedy. My prayers are with you and your family.
Closure is a silly, made-up word, something that does not really exist. The death of someone one loves deeply leaves a hole in the middle of one's life. One learns to navigate (carefully) around the hole, but the hole never fills up and disappears.
@@bonjovirocks24 , Thank you. My dearly beloved husband died 22 years ago and the hole is simply there. I'm glad that somebody out there shares the experience, though I'm sincerely sorry if you've had such a loss.
@@ajordan1976 It's simply a thing that sits in the middle of one's life and remains there. And if one tries to tell others about it, they have no clue.
The ripple effect of Dan Markel's death is monumental. And the effect on his boys, due to the selfishness of their mother, grandmother and uncle will never leave them. Talk about "haunted", Donna. Your actions will haunt those boys/young men forever. Moving statement by Mrs. Markel. My heart goes out to you. I've pre-ordered your book.
someone should send an autographed copy of Dans mother’s book which is coming out in September to all the ADELSON’s and to all the people involved in the hit. The Unveiling: A Mother's Reflection on Murder, Grief, and Trial Life by Ruth Markel
Why has Wendi Adelson not been charged with anything? She is the only person with a motive to have her husband murdered. A classic narcissist with a huge sense of entitlement and greed. She is the one who started all this with her constant complaining she wanted everything her way and that meant she had to get rid of her husband. She may not have shot him but I can't believe she didn't know it was going to happen. It doesn't make sense that she's getting to live her life and throw everyone else in her family under the bus. It's sickening
Mrs Markel, what a courages and beautiful lady. To Mr & Mrs Markel and the 2 Grand Children Benjamen and Lincoln , as justice is served may this bring comfort too you all. ❤❤❤❤❤
At 2:25 the judge literally says “....Mrs. Markel I would ask that you stick to the reading, what is said and not ad lib....”. For those of you making comments of “this isn’t coming from the heart...” or “reading from a paper...” this poor woman is doing what had been asked of her. Pay attention next time before you start smearing a woman that has drastically lost a child and had to face his murderer in public!!! Shame!!!
Great comet tina 1000%right God love this poor sweet lady and the.loss of.her son may God help her get through this someday and her heart heals some until she see him in heaven and may wife go straight too prison and stay there .
I cannot see how she maintained her composure as well as she did. I would rather ask the judge if I could have a go at the players that caused his death
Was Wendi here when her former mother-in-law spoke? If not, this would show Wendi's true character. If she had no involvement, it seems she would still be here because he WAS the father of her children. Let's hope that their children do not inherit the evil and diabolical attributes of her monstrous family. Her family ARE NOT good people. They will face the lord one day! Heaven help them!
My heart is broken listening to Dan’s mom…i understand the pain of being cut off from your grandchildren. It guts a grandmother. My love and prayers are with this mother and her family always
I couldn't give a VIS, it was just to hard! The murderer of my three year old granddaughter was just released from prison! He got out early for "good" behavior. 😭😭😭😭
A very Bright future of a very well educated person was Wasted .My heart goes out with the mother of the victim .To tell the truth,,I Skipped all the Trials that of Magbanua. I hate to see her most.
I can’t imagine how the two little boys have dealt with the sudden disappearance of their dad. They were with their daddy just a short time before his murder.
Finally more justice for dannie Markle 2 more people to go Donnas there and wendi's next. Got Bless you Ruth 🙏🙏🙏 and your family.I hope one day soon you will reunite with your grandsons and they get the Markle name back . ❤
Ruth is one tough woman. She will stay strong until ALL involved in killing her son are imprisoned. Then, all that sadness will overwhelm her. I’m so sorry for what these “people” have done to you and your family, Ruth. You are an amazing woman!
I truly believe that Wendi’s biggest beef with Dan was that she was JEALLOUS of him and his accomplishments especially those in the same professional field as her own - always the spoilt person, she just could not tolerate being a natural second (in her mind) to Dan. Hoping for the remaining arrests very soon, post CA : ⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️ + ⚖️⚖️⚖️
My thoughts exactly. Wendi was always the golden child, second to none academically, until she compared herself to Danny. I believe she was consumed with jealousy, and her mother couldn't handle Dan getting the best of the Adelsons in litigation. She hated him for it. Hate and jealousy consumed their minds. They hated Dan more than they loved his sons.
Wendi will be the last one to be charged. If she is at all. I believe she is going to get away with her involvement in this. She is very manipulative. And she knew what she was doing from the very beginning. She’s smart and she planned this to perfection. She has a 90% chance of being convicted,
I think 100% chance of being charged and convicted. God saw all her planning and conniving of her family, to get rid of the thorn (Dan) in her life. WA will pay on Earth and in the after life. RIP Dan. You sound like such a great man, son, Brother and Uncle. May God Be with your Family in such a time as this. May the Adeleson Family have unrest and NO PEACE EVEN IN ETERNITY.
I believe that the family had him killed its obvious that they did it And yet they have not been arrested for this crime and I find this to be unbelievable
You know that's quite a statement. I understand the irony. But what a gas lighting mind F that would be if she had! I've been thinking about your comment. I don't believe it would have been appropriate for an ex to speak. But his boys are a very different story. It's glaringly obvious that a mother would encourage her children to speak though. For they are the ones most impacted by the loss of a parent. They are young men now. But the guilt of their maternal family would never allow such a thing. And that says volumes about the connection to the actual murder. My mind is blown that this is the only comment ever addressing the absence of any Adelson as a victim.
you didn't see her wipe her eyes? she's lost her son and has gone through this farce and rigamarole where the actual killers have not been charged...yet.
Golnaz. Always a perfect man, not so she wouldnt have left him if he was such a good person. Not that would be a cause to kill anyone. They wanted to place kids in adoption, never said to have Dan kids, says alot from dabs mother revenge on the kids to send them to adoption.
This woman wasn’t nice neither was her son. Just sayin. Doesn’t mean her son deserved what happened by any means. But rumor is that Dan & his mom treated Wendi really horribly.
You should rewatch this video and pay attention to the judge at 2:25 and rethink your comment! Not only because the judge made her read from those pieces of paper and actually tried to stop her because he thought she was trying to get in something extra (11:05 for reference) but because her and her family could come across this comment and find it very very hurtful! You’re NOT the only person on this planet ma’am!
