Donna Adelson’s choice of legal counsel might be the most overlooked plot twist in the Dan Markel murder saga — until you see who’s sitting next to her in court.

Enter Jackie L. Fulford: a former Florida judge who left the bench not in retirement — but under scandal. In this gripping breakdown, we dive into Fulford’s disturbing history of judicial misconduct, including allegations of abuse of power, personal coercion, and interfering in a domestic battery case involving her live-in partner’s son. Fulford was removed from the bench in 2015 by the Florida Supreme Court, following findings of a “permanent disability” that conveniently ended her ethics case just before a full trial.

Now, nearly a decade later, she’s back — not in a robe, but defending a woman accused of orchestrating one of the most calculated murder plots in Florida history.

But here’s where it gets eerie.

Fulford and Adelson don’t just share a courtroom — they share a look. A posture. A vibe. The resemblance is uncanny. Could Donna Adelson have chosen Fulford not just for legal strategy… but because she sees herself in her? Is this a calculated psychological tactic to reflect control, polish, and power? Or is it just coincidence?

This isn’t just a legal breakdown — it’s a story about image, manipulation, and how power presents itself when the cameras are rolling.

 Listen as we dissect Fulford’s career implosion, her ethical collapse, and why she might be the most controversial courtroom figure this side of the defense table.
