Donna Adelson’s sentencing day quickly turned into a legal spectacle — with her defense team pushing back hard, arguing that she never received a fair trial. From calling out prosecutors to questioning the Markels and even taking aim at the judge, Donna’s team made their most defiant stand yet. But is this bold courtroom strategy part of a bigger plan… or simply Donna Adelson’s last attempt to keep control as she prepares for life behind bars? 

Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this STS episode, host Joel Waldman and #BestGuests break down the dramatic courtroom moments, the defense’s surprising tone, and what it all means for the future of the Adelson family. 

Dan Markel, a beloved Florida State law professor, was brutally murdered in 2014 in a murder-for-hire plot tied to a bitter family dispute. Both Charlie and Donna Adelson have now been convicted for their roles in the crime — and many believe the pursuit of justice for Dan Markel will continue.
