Clear and Convincing with Lisa O'Brien and Michael Carnahan - Dalia Dippolito

On July 31, 2009, Mohammed Shihadeh contacted Florida police to report a murder-for-hire plot.  During an interview with the Boynton Beach Police Department, Shihadeh advised detectives that a woman he knew only as “Delilah” was trying to find a hitman to kill her husband of six months.  On August 1, 2009, Shihadeh, while wearing a wire and with a video camera hidden in his car, met with Dalia Dippolito in the parking lot of a Mobil gas station in Boynton Beach, Florida.  After a 6-day investigation, on August 5, 2009, Dalia Dippolito was arrested and charged with solicitation to commit first degree murder.  In spite of the audio and video evidence collected during the investigation, Dippolito’s legal team claimed that she was acting and had no intent to murder her husband.   Join Michael Carnahan and Lisa O’Brien for a discussion of the evidence against Dippolito, her improbable defense to the charges and the twists and turns the case took, while she spent 8 years on house arrest.
