Former Mother-In-Law of Murdered Law Professor Arrested at Airport

Donna Adelson, the former mother-in-law of murdered law professor Dan Markel, has been arrested at Miami International Airport on charges of conspiracy to commit murder, solicitation of murder, and first-degree murder. Her arrest comes after the recent conviction of Markel's ex-brother-in-law, Charlie Adelson, for masterminding the murder-for-hire plot. Donna Adelson's arrest is believed to be connected to her involvement in the plot, which stemmed from a custody battle between Markel and his ex-wife, Wendi Adelson. Donna Adelson had purchased one-way tickets to Vietnam, prompting authorities to act quickly to prevent her potential escape. She is currently being held without bail.
