Chronicling
the
Adelson
trial
has
had
its
fair
share
of
clever
legal
arguments
and
delays,
but
this
development
happened
out
of
court.
Being
incarcerated
comes
with
its
stressors.
Being
in
a
cell
and
having
your
day
dictated
to
you
take
their
toll,
but
sometimes
it’s
the
good
rapport
(or
lack
thereof)
with
your
fellow
inmates
that
really
gets
you.
Donna
Adelson
recently
had
a
less-than-stellar
interaction
with
a
fellow
inmate
—
Tallahassee
has
coverage:
Donna
Adelson,
an
alleged
mastermind
behind
the
2014
contract
killing
of
law
professor
Dan
Markel,
claimed
she
was
“grabbed”
and
extorted
late
last
year
at
the
Leon
County
Detention
Facility.
…
“On
Feb.
3,
Donna
Adelson
alleged
another
inmate
grabbed
her
by
the
arm
in
relation
to
an
attempt
to
extort,”
Knight
said.
“She
said
this
happened
back
in
December.
She
said
it
happened
in
the
bathroom
area,
not
in
the
shower.
She
would
not
provide
any
information
regarding
the
alleged
suspects.”
Adelson
has
since
been
placed
in
protective
custody.
Being
protected
from
aggression
shouldn’t
stop
once
you’re
behind
bars
—
and
we’re
a
better
country
for
protecting
people
in
vulnerable
positions.
Whatever
justice
she
deserves
should
be
meted
out
in
a
courtroom
by
a
judge
and
jurors,
not
by
a
fellow
inmate
in
a
bathroom
area.
