FBI Profiler Reveals Twisted Mother-Son Bond Between Donna & Charlie Adelson

The most disturbing part of the Donna Adelson case isn’t just the murder. It’s her deeply unhealthy emotional grip on her son, Charlie. In this final chapter of our four-part interview, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke helps us unpack the enmeshed, codependent dynamic that may have fueled a murder-for-hire plot.

We explore the psychology of emotional incest—not sexual, but psychological—and how Donna used fear, guilt, and lifelong programming to keep her son obedient into his 40s. This was no ordinary mother-son relationship. This was psychological domination dressed up as maternal love.

Robin walks us through the patterns of grooming, control, and total emotional fusion that made Charlie the perfect foot soldier for a plan he may not have even questioned. We talk about Wendy’s role, Harvey’s absence, and the chilling possibility that this family has been living in Donna’s shadow for decades.

This isn’t just a crime—it’s a generational collapse. And now, the entire Adelson empire is falling apart, one testimony at a time.
