Florida State University professor Dan Markel was found in his Tallahassee, Florida, home on Friday. Police say there were no signs of robbery or burglary and have yet to disclose any motive.
According to Tallahassee police, officers found Markel after a neighbor called 911 at about 11 a.m. with reports of a "loud bang."

Markel, 41, was rushed to a local hospital, where he died the following day. "While we cannot release specific information or details regarding this case, the Violent Crimes Unit is releasing that Mr. Markel's cause of death was a fatal gunshot wound to the head," Tallahassee Police Chief Michael DeLeo said in a statement.
By Monday, police had categorized the case as a homicide, and according to Tallahassee Police Department spokesman David Northway, Markel was the intended target.

@KayElJay - maybe you can get rid of the VERDICT WATCH on the title since we haven't got there yet with KM's trial coming up. Just a suggestion! :)

I just chose no prefix. I had tried to somehow mention the convictions thus far in the title, but it was too long.

forgive me if this was already mentioned, but do you find it bizarre that on the day of the murder Wendi was called into the police interview wearing an OWL T-Shirt? LOL Just too weird

Police Release Videotape Of Wendi Adelson Learning Of Husband’s Murder
No, but I find it bizarre that when Wendi called her mother to tell her that Danny had been shot, her mother did not respond, “What happened?” Her mother merely said, “I’m coming”; there were no questions about how/why Danny was killed. Highly unusual behavior, IMO.

Surprised the mother did not respond to the news by saying WHO?

I'm so glad he's providing these videos - giving us a great deal of info. And, I don't want to discourage these efforts but I swear I hear Inspector Clouseau in his accent. And, a valley girl :D

I agree on the accent. LOL. These are tedious but I did glean a few interesting things from them. I went ahead and posted the next two. I think there is ONE more coming. It should be a quick short 15 page one from what ML said....
