Highly detailed crime investigator here, analyzing the intricate details of this convoluted case involving the heinous murder of Dan Marel. The web of deceit and treachery spun by the Adelen family is truly perplexing and disturbing.
From the initial arrest of the two hitmen, Luis and Sigfredo, to the subsequent arrests of Katie, Charlie, and now Donna, the matriarch of the family, it’s evident that this plot goes deep and involves multiple players.
The evidence presented in court, including wiretapped conversations and incriminating emails, paints a damning picture of the Adelen family’s involvement in Dan Marel’s murder. Donna’s attempt to flee the country at the airport further solidifies the suspicion surrounding the family’s guilt.
As the investigation continues, it remains to be seen how far the dominoes will fall and if Wendy or Harvey, the father, will be implicated in this twisted scheme. The trial of Donna and her involvement in Dan’s murder will shed more light on this sordid tale of greed and manipulation within a seemingly perfect family facade.
Stay tuned for updates on this ongoing case as the truth unravels and justice is sought for the innocent victim, Dan Marel. This saga of deceit and betrayal within the Adelen family is truly a chilling reminder of the darkness that can lurk beneath the surface of seemingly normal lives.

Hi all. I apologize for any audio issues. There is some sort of glitch because those few minutes of the video the audible on some devices but not others. I’m not sure why

Side note: It seems that Dan was an ENTP. Strong personality that I wish I could’ve had an opportunity to learn from. The world lost a good soul.
@reubenvries8807
Actually your title must read "Narcissist ex-wife manipulated family to murder the father of her sons" Donna and Charlie did what they did purely for Wendi's sake. She seems well versed in getting her way by hook or by crook. Her family is so wrapped around her little finger and would clearly stop at nothing to give wendi what she asks for. WENDI IS THE MASTERMIND!
@kyskinbodycontouring2506
this was a great video & summary of what happened! such an insane case. fyi just in case anyone is interested in mannnny further details Stephanie & Derrick did a multipart deep dive on their crime weekly YT channel there’s so many more insane details such as how Wendi wrote a “fictional” book that was SO clearly based on herself & Dan the main character was so miserable with her husband & where they lived & Wendi tries to act like it’s not very obviously abt herself 😂 also, the call with the brother and a guy was with the undercover DT that gave the mom the paper, it had a phone number on it & that was one of the calls. I watched the whole vid bc i love annie’s channel ofc so just wanna be clear i’m not implying this vid lacked in any way! just like she said herself it just wasn’t a deep dive so i wanted to suggest for anyone wanting to learn a lot more esp abt Wendi & Dan’s relationship & the brother’s relationship with the Katherine as well as a detailed account of the story his defense tried to make up at his trial it’s all SO interesting & unbelievably gets so much crazier than what’s mentioned in this video.
Lastly, I 100% think Wendi always knew. I don’t think her dad knew at first (based on various info mentioned in the crime weekly deep dives) but I do think at some point afterwards he was made aware. & I feel SO bad for those boys, their intelligent, loving & SANE father was taken away from them i wish them healing & happiness i hate that so many selfish insane adults cause lifelong, irreversible pain & suffering to children and choose to make them victims with their evil actions 🥺🫶🏽

Look I am not a fan of Judaism or any religion really but all he asked was to keep the catering kosher, that is all he asked and they couldn't even do that.

Annie, you are going to think this is so silly, but "icky" is one of my favorite words, and you said it in this video I just watched.
You said, "It gives me icky vibes." 😂 YAY! My friend gets so mad when I say it, so thank you, hon!😁
@ericjohnson9431
Two big bad drug dealing thugs in a prius got to admit that's funny
@anneelisedoherty8288
Donna’s manipulative and obsessive email and behavior reminds me of an immature, teen-aged “mean girl”. SERIALously pathetic!!!
@anneelisedoherty8288
Hey @annieelise ~I tried Factor meals, one of your sponsors. Yummy food and so easy to prep! Thanks for the info and the discount! ❤

Where did you get your sweatshirt at?’ I love the colors!
@cynthiaadkins-zj9ut
Wendi is a spoiled, entitled narcissist who was extremely jealous of Dan's reputation in the legal community. She had been treated like a princess her entire life and when Dan didn't continue to worship the ground she walked on she made both public and private accusations with the intent to destroy his reputation. Narcissists simply cannot have any competition. My ex-husband was the same way. He was deeply angry and resentful any time anyone praised me either personally or professionally. After we divorced it took years of therapy for me to understand this.
@JenMttyforever
Updates?
@abbiemoore7895
Great video, this case is so interesting
@Magnum0peth
She has sponsors, how much more ads does this girl want to squeeze out of this video?? Jeez!
@tylerjerry7681
She started making that money. She don’t need him. She can party now and live that wild life
@andreadiamond7115
I’ve been riveted on this case for a few weeks now. Cant wait to watch Donna’s trial and then see Harvey and especially Wendi get indicted and tried!
@user-nk5lz3ri2s
Hi, I feel that Kayleigh has been lost in all of this!!!! I feel that there is too much effort made on the people responsible for these horrendous crimes, and none on the the little two year old girl that lost her life too a horrendous mother!!!! Seriously,!!!!
@sarahpringle2899
Thanks
@teresaboyer284
You know, I wonder what would have happened if Charlie had had the sense to marry Katie. She wouldn’t have been able to talk because of spousal privilege, right? Would there have been enough evidence to convict Charlie without Katie, Sigfredo or Luis? And without Charlie could they have charged Donna? Interesting to think about. Charlie outsmarted himself by not marrying her. You KNOW Katie was ticked off- she thought she had won the golden ticket with him.
@jtravas1
Kickass background
@BrightLight88
Annie only made 1 STUPID COMMENT in this video… Annie said WENDI did NOT think WENDI was involved… WTF… Wendi went to the CRIME SCENE 1 hour after Dan's Murder !!! Also, Wendi said the word HITMAN over and over and repeated the HITMAN joke to GEEK SQUAD guy on the morning of the murder … WAKE UP Annie !!
@CJ-gv7fj
Wendi orchestrated the murder of Dan by manipulating her mother and her mother manipulating Charlie and their arrogance made them think they could get away with it; Georgia said stay tuned well it just a matter of time before the queen bee fall and no one will be there to catch her and she will have the same fate she gave Danny, she will never see her kids again and their names will be changed back to their fathers name. My prediction.
@dustin628
Jeez Annie the amount of sponsors and ads in this is borderline ridiculous. It comes off as pure greed. Why can't you just do less and charge more? It's really disappointing 😞
@stephaniesmith5974
They hurt the children more than anything by taking away their dad. Did they think of how profoundly that would effect these kids lives? No!
@DaveStarks-ku2jd
Perfect! Liked and subbed.
@tamrichards4552
hi lovely lady… im in Oz and love ,love ,love your presentation…I would really appreciate a G'Day mate !
You are gorgeous.. Cheers girl !!
@shannon701
The prosecutor's performance was absolutely stellar.
@laurarush
The thing that bothers me is she wasn't 100% that the kids were dropped off at school yet and I think that's not good. what if the kids were in the car and he was in the car in the garage and got shot?
@melissaadams6245
Kimbr is doing videos about this case on her channel with her bf too!! Waiting on their final video on it it’s four parts! Love hearing your take on it❤❤
@jasonsmouse6570
The second she's informed about Dan and she doesn't IMMEDIATELY ask if the kids are ok is all I needed to know.
@jenexit
The only reason Wendi allowed the interview to go on for 5 hours was to avoid going to the hospital to be by Dan's side. Where she didn't belong anyway.
@cwall3308
With all the deadbeat dads out there that don’t want anything to do with their own kids you’d think they would be happy that the boys have a very hands on caring dad. This family is pure evil to take away the children’s father.
@michaeltocker2817
Donna is narcissistic to the 10th degree and the apples didn’t fall far from the tree. All horrible and the children have and will continue to pay the price. How does the mother/grandmother reconcile this. Hopefully these apples will fall far from this tree and nature provides them with their Father’s everything.
@janitaweekly3054
Wendi was involved she is to fake in all she says and does'
@janitaweekly3054
Never heard such fake tears and lies. She sure didn't mind putting the blame on her family.
@shannonigans_
anyone with abusive families knows what it means when the oldest sibling goes no contact as soon as they can.
@gazorpazorp9798
Anne is very basic. But she can read copy really well. if she brought the energy to the show that she brings to the commercials, it would be a lot better.
@awm3488
Thanks for out look on it love your content. 😊. This makes me feel like my dad’s cousin is case is mild. In the love triangle he got attached too but dang. Hopefully. This guys family gets justice one day. . Go look up the case of two plastic surgeons. In Lubbock tx. I’m pretty sure cnn or 20’mins did a documentary on it. Love to hear you out look on it.
@transistic
Annie Elise I stopped listening to you because I can’t stand your vocal fry.
@hallelujah969
IMO, WENDI IS THE ONE, WHO PUT IT IN HER MOTHER'S EAR THAT THE ONLY WAY SHE COULD MOVE BACK TO THE MIAMI AREA WITH THE BOYS, WAS IF DANIEL MARKEL WAS NO LONGER IN THE PICTURE. DONNA SEEMS TO BE THE ONE, WHO SUGGESTED EVIL, WICKED MIND GAMES AND OFFERING TO PAY DANIEL A MILLION DOLLARS TO LET THEM MOVE TO THE MIAMI AREA. WENDI KNEW DANIEL WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW DONNA'S IDEAS WOULD NOT WORK. SHE HAD ALSO BEEN FALSELY DEMONIZING DANIEL….TO ANYONE WHO WOULD BUY HER LIES AND NOT BOTHER WITH GETTING DANIEL'S SIDE OF THINGS. DONNA, MORE OR LESS, HAD PUSHED WENDI INTO MARRYING DANIEL, A MAN SHE REALLY DIDN'T LOVE. GUESS DONNA FELT SHE NEEDED TO FIX THE SITUATION HER DAUGHTER WAS IN, SO DONNA GOT WITH CHARLIE ABOUT A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO THEIR DANIEL PROBLEM. GOD ALMIGHTY IS/HAS BEEN/WILL AVENGE THE MURDER OF DANIEL AND THE UNNECESSARY SUFFERING HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN PUT THROUGH. IT MADE ME HAPPY WHEN I HEARD THAT DONNA SAID THAT SHE FELT LIKE DANIEL HAS COME BACK FROM THE GRAVE AND IS HAUNTING THEM AND THAT HER FAMILY IS CURSED. ACTUALLY, IT IS GOD ALMIGHTY COMING FOR THEM. 🙏 DANIEL WAS A DEVOUT JEW, WHO WANTED TO BRING HIS SONS UP WITH THE SAME DEDICATION TO GOD. THE ADELSONS SEEM TO HATE PEOPLE, WHO DON'T LIKE GODLY VALUES. ie. THEY MADE FUN OF THEIR OLDEST SON, ROB, FOR BEING AN HONEST PERSON WITH INTEGRITY.
@Cindy-gu3jv
Just wow, a family of book smart kids, 2 had no common sense, spoiled, thought they were untouchable.
