lol, he calls his murderous ex-wife at 9am. They talk a minute

She and Charlie call back and forth and talk about 20 minutes around 9:20am

She tries shortporch's number at 11:42am. He's dead

the purple line is how she drove (right past murder scene) to the liquor store where she bought bullet bourbon

Proves circumstantially she knew of the murder morning-of. Her ex-bf testified yesterday that she confided they had looked into and priced hitmen, and that she seemed to want details as to his travel plans. (Had he stuck to his plans, he'd be near crime scene and the time of death). This suggests she knew at least a week ahead of time.

Common sense indicates that she would want to be involved with timing, as her kids woke up in the murder house that morning. There is also the question of how her brother, indisputably involved, knew her ex's daily schedule, which likely had to come from her.

A circumstantial case against her, but Id file it.

During a venomous divorce between Wendi and Dan, in which Wendi was losing her battle for relocating the kids, Dan gets killed. The police ultimately establish that two hit men arrived from Miami, where Wendi's family lives, to kill Dan. One of them shares a woman with Wendi's brother.

The state theory of the case is that the brother (and perhaps other members of Wendi's family, including Wendi) orchestrated the hit, using his gf as a go-between with the hitmen, one of whom she also dated.

The hitmen have pled guilty or been convicted, the brother is charged and awaiting trial, and the girlfriend is being tried right now.

Wendi has yet to be arrested.

There is evidence that suggests her family kept her out of the plan:

- when she learned of the death, she was convincingly shocked

- during her police interview, she said incriminating things about her family that a smart person who had conspired with her family would not say, eg. "my brother used to joke about hiring a hitman"

- she has never had a single documented encounter with the hitmen

There is more and more evidence inculpating her. Much of it comes from her post-divorce bf, who testified:

- she was obsessed with winning the divorce and relocation

- she and her brother were kinky weirdos and shared everything

- she's a compulsive liar

- she frequently shared her brother's "joke" about hiring hitman

- she confided sincerely that they did look into hitmen

- she appears to have tried to frame the ex-bf. she was suspiciously inquisitive about his travel plans, and had he not changed them without telling her, he would have been near the murder

- she then fingered him to the cops

There are also phone data:

- she exchanges a flurry of calls with her brother and mom the morning of the killing

- she goes out to buy liquor that morning, but rather than drive the most direct route, she triples the length of the trip by whoops driving past Dan's house, where she sees the police cars already gathers. she is spotted.

There is more circumstantial evidence

- the killers knew minutiae about dan's schedule that a brother-in-law would likely not know, but an ex-wife would

- one of the killers has turned snitch and says they saw wendi on a dry run. "thats the lady that hired us right there" the other killer told him

There is common sense evidence

- a family plan to kill dan only a few hours after he was with the beloved children would likely require that Wendi confirm the children would not be present

if katie doesnt flip between potential conviction and sentencing, theyve got all the evidence they ever will... and its aging.

I venture that if katie loses, they'll be knocking on a certain door in south beach. Then tell katie: you lost, she's in jail, charlie's in jail. why not tell us now?

im curious if they would clue in the markel grandparents to come pick up the kids. I imagine they would think that could put officers in danger, risk a leak, etc. But fuck, hard on the kids to come home from school and have some social worker waiting there

iirc markels live in canada and i imagine a week of foster care at least while jurisdictional shit works out. maybe months

she was questioning one of the confessed hitmen today. The defense theory is that his statements inculpating the defendant were merely telling the police what they had pre-fed him.

"You didnt just regurgitate the police reports, right?" the prosecutor asked him. The guy is on-the-record illiterate, likely sub 75 IQ, and she used the word regurgitate.

He stared at her until she said it again. "Did you regurgitate what we wanted to hear?"

He stared longer.

"yes?" he said. And then she moved on. lol

is there any way to spoof a moniker? as i recall, the spelling looked like the standard "shortporch."

“He is my same height, which is something I had never considered pre-Joshua, because I had already determined that my dating window extended only from 6 foot two to 6 foot 4”

She has two kids so maybe the Adelsons are supporting them but you’d think the state would be competent enough to find records if this if the kids were living well. They have all the other relevant financial records

I think she just figures she has a non zero shot at beating the case - and if she loses she can flip then. She’s already got 8 years in, which wouldn’t be much less than her sentence for conspiracy 2nd degree
