Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

Inside Donna Adelson’s Prison Hell: What Life Is Really Like for the “Markel Murder” Matriarch-WEEK IN REVIEW

When the Florida Department of Corrections locked the door on Donna Adelson, it didn’t just end a chapter in the Dan Markel murder case — it ended a dynasty built on money, manipulation, and control.
For years, the Adelsons operated like a family above the law — insulated by privilege, convinced they could script reality itself. But that illusion shattered when a Tallahassee jury saw through the act and convicted 75-year-old Donna Adelson of orchestrating the murder of her former son-in-law, FSU law professor Dan Markel.
Now, the woman who once ruled her family with an iron will faces her ultimate punishment: life behind concrete and steel, where her status means nothing and her name earns only whispers.
In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down what Donna’s life will actually look like inside Florida’s women’s prison system — from intake and strip searches to social hierarchies and survival strategies. Drawing on verified reporting and first-hand inmate accounts, we explore what happens when a narcissist who’s lived for power loses every ounce of it.
There’s no staff to command. No family to manipulate. No control. Just noise, confinement, and a slow psychological unraveling known as narcissistic collapse.
We examine the psychology behind her downfall, the sociology of aging inmates, and the poetic justice of watching a lifelong manipulator become invisible in a world she can’t dominate.
Donna Adelson will never walk free again. Her son Charlie sits in his own cage. Her daughter Wendy waits for her turn in the spotlight. And the woman who thought she could bend reality is now learning what reality really feels like — cold, loud, and merciless.
This is the fall of Donna Adelson — and the silence of a cell she can never escape.
