Documents & Records
Bank records
Records document a spike in cash deposits to Magbanua's accounts following Markel's July 2014 murder and show regular payroll deposits from the Adelson Institute. The prosecution cited the absence of payment documentation for a breast augmentation procedure and a Lexus as inconsistent with Magbanua's claimed explanations for the cash. Both prosecution and defense opening statements in the Magbanua retrial addressed these records, and the Charlie Adelson prosecution cited them in its own opening.

About
The post-murder cash deposit pattern and the gap in documentation for major purchases were central to the prosecution's financial circumstantial case connecting Magbanua's compensation to the murder-for-hire arrangement.
