So you are walking down the street one day and a total stranger hands you an extortion notice with his phone number and fingerprints all over it and telling you he knows who murdered your former son-in-law and you don't go directly to the police with this evidence? You call him and tell him how it's stressing you out? Please, the people who have been through the stress machine and back are Dan Markel's parents. Anybody with any morals at all would go directly to the police.

What’s confusing about this case, and the incident you just described, is the fact that IF the family was being extorted, they would’ve behaved the same way - that’s why they used the extortion lie in court. What convinces me that Donna, Charlie, & Wendi are guilty is other behaviors that show how narcissistic they are - like Charlie’s phone call to his Mom long before he was arrested, showing his lack of empathy, narcissistic idea of what relationships should be, his entitlement, etc, and Donna’s emails, showing how she used her kids & grandchildren as objects and had no empathy for anyone at all.

People wonder why he testified. It is very common and well known, that Sociopathic/Psychopathic Narcissists INSIST on testifying because they are so sure of themselves. On top of that they truly believe that whatever crime they committed is no big deal or not a crime at all. That's why they override their lawyers because they also think that they can persuade or con the jury into believing their side of their story.
