Dalia Dippolito Back Again

Dalia Dippolito’s story was featured on ABC’s 20/20 this past weekend. If you aren’t familiar with Dalia’s story, you’ve missed a very, very interesting case to say the last. Luckily for Dalia’s husband, Michael, Dalia didn’t get her wish carried out. Instead, she got charged with solicitation of first-degree murder and sentenced to 20-years behind bars because she asked the wrong man, an undercover cop, to kill her husband.

Oops!

The story is now taking on more twists and turns. Dalia got her case reversed out of concerns that her jury may have been biased because of pretrial media and she is scheduled for a new trial this May (2016). Dalia is out on home arrest and wearing an ankle monitor until her trial.

Dalia’s defense is that she was somehow set up to be part of a reality TV show, and it was all just a game. Do you believe her?

Dalia Dippolito Calls Husband

Nancy Grace had Dalia Dippolito’s phone call from jail to her soon-to-be ex-husband on her show last night. Did you see it? It was fascinating, mind-boggling and chilling all at the same time. You get to see into the world of someone who is manipulative and I suspect is a psychopath! Dalia tried to tell her husband she was innocent and everyone else is lying –so common for a psychopath.

Read moreI tried to find video snippets of the show online today, but I am unable to locate any. If you get to see it, I think anyone can see how psychopaths are able to manipulate people into trusting them. She is so persistent that she won’t give up until she gets her way! She makes everyone, if only for an instant, question if maybe she is right. Obviously, she has perfected her game, but this time she took it way too far and the reality of what Michael and the rest of the world saw on the video can’t be explained away this time, though Dalia sure tries again and again.

I am confident Dalia can make most people question their sanity (judgment of right and wrong/truth and lies) and take up her defense more than the majority of the time. I suspect Michael may have fallen victim again had it not been for the police video tape that is undeniable. He shouldn’t even be talking to her or helping her in anyway! Very sad to see into the world of such horrific manipulation!

“Like she’s ordering a cheese sandwich”

Dalia Dippolito hired a hit man to kill her husband. What she didn’t know was this hit man was an undercover cop. The story is fascinating because we get to see a suspected psychopath do her dirty work. The police have recently released a video of Dalia talking to the uncover cop, asking him to kill her husband. It’s bone chilling. You can read more here and see another video as well.

I’ve pointed out countless times that killers often are lacking the appropriate emotions and when they discuss topics that should elicit a notable emotional response, they often come across as if it is just another typical day, in essence, totally flat. A lack of emotions is equally as important as inappropriate emotions, it is just so many people discount it.

Oprah once said, “When people tell you who they are, believe them.” Dalia doesn’t hesitate to tell this undercover cop who she is. She says, “I’m a lot tougher than what I look. I know you are thinking, ‘What a cute little girl, or whatever. You know, but I’m not.'”

How many times has someone said to you, “I’m not half as nice as you think I am” and you just discount it? Many people often think people are hard on themselves, so when they say something negative like this, they immediately respond back, “Oh no, you aren’t like that at all.” More often than not, when someone puts themselves down in a negative light like this, we actually sympathize and empathize with them. We feel sorry for them, which is counterintuitive.

Denial is a very dangerous thing. When someone says something negative about themselves, I take it as gospel. I believe them. This is very important advice. It can save you from heartache, or much worse. Let’s put it this way, I would never call myself something I don’t think I am. Would you?

One last thing, Michael Dippolito met Dalia when she was working as an escort. He should have always calculated in that Dalia would do anything for money, or she likely wouldn’t have worked in the shadowy business of escorts. Had he done that from day one, he would have likely been suspicious of her and acted a lot sooner, which could have saved him from a lot of heartache.

Just food for thought.
