Donna Adelson has officially been transferred to her new home: Homestead Correctional Institution in Miami-Dade County — and STS is breaking down what this major move means for one of the most notorious defendants in Florida right now. Convicted for her role in the murder of her ex–son-in-law, FSU law professor Dan Markel, Donna is now beginning what could be the rest of her life behind bars. In this Surviving the Survivor episode, Emmy Award-Winning Host Joel Waldman and the #BestGuests take you inside what Donna can expect at Homestead. Dan Markel was gunned down in his Tallahassee driveway in 2014 in a planned murder-for-hire plot tied to a bitter child-custody battle. For years, the case twisted through shocking allegations, wiretaps, informants, and arrests — ultimately leading to Donna’s conviction.Support the show & be a part of #STSNation:Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: [email protected] Surviving the Survivor is the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime and is hosted by Emmy Award-Winning Host Joel Waldman.
