Were Wendy’s Kids Pawns in the Adelson Murder Plot Of Dan Markel? Expert Weighs In

Were Wendy’s Kids Pawns in the Adelson Murder Plot Of Dan Markel? Expert Weighs In When psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, the conversation shifts from testimony to analysis — and the insights are chilling. Scott explains how children in families like the Adelsons are often treated not as individuals but as pawns, used to meet the emotional needs of manipulative parents and grandparents. The discussion explores Wendy Adelson’s choices through the lens of generational trauma and narcissistic control. Was Wendy repeating the patterns instilled in her by her mother, Donna Adelson? How does such an environment shape children who are caught in the crossfire of divorce, custody disputes, and — ultimately — violence? Blending professional expertise with raw personal reflections from Tony and his co-hosts, this segment delivers a powerful mix of true crime and psychology. Listeners are left with a deeper understanding of not just what happened, but why such destructive family dynamics can persist across generations — and the lasting scars they leave behind.
