How Do You Parent After Murder? Wendy Adelson’s Children in Crisis

How Do You Parent After Murder? Wendy Adelson’s Children in Crisis

What happens to children when their father is murdered, their grandparents are in prison, and suspicion hangs over their mother? In this closing segment of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, the panel and Shavaun Scott tackle the impossible parenting dilemmas at the heart of the Adelson saga.

The discussion asks blunt questions: How can Wendy Adelson raise her children under such a cloud of suspicion? How do kids process the reality that their family members conspired to kill their father? And what hope exists for them to break free from the toxic cycles of manipulation and control that seem to define the Adelson legacy?

Far from sensational, this conversation is emotionally grounded and painfully honest. Tony, Stacy, Todd, and Shavaun weigh the long-term psychological impacts, the role of therapy, and the possibility of rebuilding identity outside of the Adelson name. It’s a sobering close to a story that blends true crime with the deepest questions about love, loyalty, and survival.
