Control Yourself!’ Judge Reprimands Matriarch After She Loses It During Murder-for-Hire Verdict

The judge in a murder-for-hire trial strongly reprimanded 75-year-old Donna Adelson for her emotional outburst after she was found guilty of masterminding a plan to kill her ex-son-in-law.

Adelson shouted “Oh my God!” as the judge pronounced her guilty of first-degree murder in a Tallahassee, Florida, courtroom on Thursday.

“Mrs. Adelson, control yourself!” admonished Florida Second Judicial Circuit Judge Stephen Everett as Adelson continued to sob.
