About this listen
Donna Adelson’s legal team just tried to pull off one of the rarest, riskiest moves in criminal defense—removing the presiding judge just weeks before trial. Why? Because he dared to allow parts of her daughter Wendy Adelson’s novel into evidence—an eerily personal piece of fiction that might mirror the real-life murder-for-hire plot she’s now connected to. With her son already sentenced to life and Wendy possibly next, the stakes couldn’t be higher. But when that motion to disqualify the judge was denied not once, but twice, it sent a clear signal: this courtroom isn’t playing defense games. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down just how thin the defense’s playbook is looking right now, and why even desperate legal maneuvers like this could backfire badly. From alleged literary motives to courtroom strategy and the weight of circumstantial evidence—this episode pulls apart every legal thread. How much damage did that novel actually do, and why does the defense seem to be grasping at legal straws before opening arguments even begin?
