Katherine Magbanua Wikipedia Bio & Trial Update
For her part in the murder of Florida State law professor Dan Markel, Circuit Judge Robert Wheeler sentenced Katherine Magbanua to life in prison along with two additional 30 years, to be served consecutively.
Following his divorce from Wendi Adelson, a clinical law professor and child advocate who was working at Florida State University at the time, Markel was killed in Tallahassee, Florida, in 2014 in a murder for hire motivated by child custody disputes.
Although Wendi Adelson, her brother Charlie, and her mother Donna have all been implicated as "conspirators" in the homicide, she has not been charged. Four people have been accused thus far: After confessing to the crime of murder, Luis Rivera was given a 19-year prison term.
