TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - On day four of testimony in Donna Adelson’s murder trial , the jury was asked to follow the phone calls, texts, and other communications that link the co-conspirators in the 2014 murder-for-hire of Florida State Professor Dan Markel .
They also heard testimony alleging Donna Adelson talked with her son, Charlie Adelson, about arranging a “birthday present” for Donna’s husband, Harvey Adelson.
“I know you’ll come through,” the South Florida mother texted Charlie Adelson in March 2014 about securing a “birthday present.” Prosecutors believe the two were talking in code about arranging Markel’s murder.
Tallahassee Police Department Sergeant Christopher Corbitt resumed his testimony Wednesday morning, working with Assistant State Attorney Sarah Kathryn Dugan t
