If at first you don’t succeed try try again.
Dalia Dippolito, 26, tried on three different occasions to kill her wealthy husband, Michael.
The newlywed failed on each attempt.
According to reports, Dalia unwittingly hired two undercover cops to kill her husband. Her reaction to the news of her husband’s faked death was recorded by the crew of the popular police reality show COPS. Once the cameras were off, police told Dalia the whole scene was a set-up.
Dalia was arrested in August and charged with conspiracy to commit murder.
Most people would probably quit there, not Dalia. She hired a hitman to finish the job. The hitman was an undercover cop.
A month earlier, Dalia had tried to poison Michael by putting anti-freeze in his coffee. That plan proved unsuccessful, with the exception of his stomach ache from the anti-freeze.
Michael has filed for a divorce from his ineptly murderous wife. Dalia is currently on house arrest at her mother’s home.

Most women just want the money and not the relationship of a marriage. This is a sign of the times.
Wow. She’s not after money since her rich husband ensures the availability of it. She’s simply psychotic and needs help: life behind bars where she won’t have a chance.
Dalia, what a sweetheart and smart too. With all the video and audio of her failed murder plots she pleads not guilty. What is this demented woman thinking. Then she calls her husband from jail and tells him she loves him. Can you imagine if she hated him. As Craig Ferguson late night host says, “what a douche bag”.
sound like Robert R in the above post will be single awhile.. Take a breath and relize the horror…
Far more women than men turn up dead at the hands of their spouses/boyfriends, so what do suppose the men want Robert? Literally, each and every day another girl/woman’s rape and/or death is headline news all over the country. Most women don’t kill for the money, they divorce for it after years of abuse.
Thats why rich men like myself have prenuptual’s? simply staes the woman leaves same as she came into marriage, end of story and its really that simple. Then if the woman still marries you you have a fighting chance lol!
That’s Funny
well look at that guy cant blam her
THE GUY MAY BE RICH ,BUT NOT SO BRITE. HER ASS WOULDN’T HAVE HAD A SECOND CHANCE.
I agree
Robert, Robert, Robert… YOU’RE SO BITTER!!!!! lmao
Hiring a hitman is pretty dumb, they are always undercover cops these days, doesn’t she read the news? Anti freeze in coffee is just stupid (not that she seems too bright). It would take a cup and a half of antifreeze to kill someone, you can’t even fit that much in a coffee cup!
I disagree Robert… most women marry for love. Only after experiencing true love can you claim your life is “rich.” Shame on you for lumping all women into the category of money-hungry. This woman is obviously sick and needs help.
In the U.S., women do marry “for” money.. and it starts from the Q&A sessions right within the dating phase. If the fellow says he’s unemployed, or a factory worker.. NO go! If he answers that he’s an Upper E. Side NYC Banker, it’s “YES, go!” Another way to approach the datability query, “What school did you go to?” This is an old-line oft used in New York and the South, Washington, DC. Canada might be different..Hope so!
Did no one read the last line of the story? She is under “house arrest”!!! If I were him I would go to another country very far away until she is safely tucked away in prison!
I bet he bailed her out the first time so she could take another shot at it she is for sure a nut case she should have read that to kill him with antifreeze you put it in lime jello and feed it to him over a period of time many women have done that. Thats why I don’t eat green jello LOL
House Arrest??? If this were a man who had tried to kill his wife he would have been held without bail after the first try. How can she get away with this. I am sure mom won’t let her use the phone to hire yet another hit man.
What a double standard we have for this type of crime.
I didn’t say women don’t marry “for” money, I said “most” women marry for love…
Least really do marry for love these days otherwise all gang up for money dear.
Wow…..how sad it is to hear what money can do to some people.We outta thank the great Lord for saving Michael’s life.
Michael need to be extra careful never know how many more are after him with better tricks that may work on first trial.
Seems to me, and Danny can take note, most men with money are ugly and not someone I would want to be seen with at all.
maybe since I am a country girl I don’t get it, I am not rich never will be probably …I need my man more than money. And yes she is nuts
Comment for Jones. There is a variety of women everywhere. Do some women marry factory workers? Yes. Unemployed? Not generally. Yes, we do marry for love, but yes we also do have prerequisites. Because, honestly? In a marriage, we have the most to lose and the most investment into child-rearing. That’s not said from a bitter sense–that is said from the reality sense, from several psychological and sociological facts. Yes, some people say that marriage is like a business arrangement–you have this, I have that, let’s bring it together. I prefer to see marriage more from a romantic point of view. I also prefer to see people as works in progress so that just about everybody has a chance for happiness–if they’re willing to take it. But yes, if guys want us, we do expect that they will be willing to work for it (meaning work on themselves and their lives) in order to have us.
what an idiot. me, i married for love. my husband is unemployed and was when i married him. but, i would still not try to kill him if he were rich. if it was a case of abuse, id leave him, not try to kill him. in any case, i wouldnt try to kill him.
If people think that there are no “Black Widows” working the internet dateing sites, the bars, or even chruches, they are deluding themselves. This is not new, it’s been going on for centuries. In years past the possibility of pulling it off was better then today, due to forensic science.
Didn’t need a forensic scientist to figure this ding bat out.
Wow. I wanna meet Danny. I will support ya honey. You don’t need to work. I got a good job and I am cute and as long as you are not growing a huge tumor on the side of your face I believe that honesty, sense of humor and intelligence are still the 3 top reasons for choosing and marrying someone!!!! Anyone can make money. Its hard to find someone with brains. Dalia’s husband obviously has none or she wouldn’t have gotten the second shot at him let alone the third.
The wack job needs to be in JAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
antifreeze? c’mon, woman! You would think that she’d change up her methods after the first attempt… but she didn’t change it up until the third and she STILL failed.
some people can’t even do the WRONG thing the RIGHT way. at least i KNOW that i can successfully suck at everything, therefore, i will not test my limits.
this chick… wow. just wow.
besides… could’ve done better with rat poisoning. it’s not hard to get and it’s far more lethal than antifreeze.
Two shall become one, does that sound like something you’ve heard before? When one spouse harms the other , no matter what the sex, it’s a sign that something is wrong with BOTH partners, and they should both get help. As to women getting married for money…it doesn’t hurt if the man is working, she should be too.
My biggest question about this article is “Why the hell is she under house arrest?” Ooh, I forgot, prison is only for people who don’t pay their speeding tickets.. The real dangers to society!. What moron missed the chance to lock up this dumb bi*ch!!!
thats sad
Please ain’t enough money in this world worth any man.
Rebecca – What makes you think you are worth changing for? This is the problem with these money-grubbing whores… They think they have the right to change a guy… no one wants to be changed… that’s why women get knocked-up and the guy leaves… cuz you were just a quick means to temporary satisfaction… And you think women have the most to lose in a marriage? I’ve done a lot of drugs in my life but I’ve never been as high as you must be right now if you believe that nonsense…Women don’t lose half in a divorce, men do… and very rarely does a man receive alimony… the bitches do… And for the record, maybe if you don’t like what you see in a guy, there’s something wrong with you… maybe you need to work on yourself…
She should be in jail. Like any normal person would be.
Sad story. I hate to see women thinking that they actually “need” a man for money. It is so much more rewarding to acquire it on your own. A husband can die, get sick or disabled, or leave you. When you have your own money (when properly protected), it is “your money”. Shame on her insecure, malicious hide. A successful, smart, secure woman can attract whatever she wants in life…. including a great relationship built on love, respect, and trust.
sometimes leaving doesn’t work, I had to move 3000 miles and change my name and that didn’t work either. there are two sides to every story, don’t judge someone without all the facts. i don’t believe murder is the answer and maybe she is just nuts, but for some men, divorce is not an option
what a Skunk Ape. the same thing happened to me. I tried and tried to give the benefit of doubt, that it was not true even after i was contacted by the investigators. I foolishly disregarded the evidence. Leaving me comatose after her last unsucessful attempt she took 3.4 mil out of the account and disappeared. I am doing better and should be able to regain my motor coordination. It is so apparent now all the lies and deceit. Love is blind, but it is better to haved loved and lost then never to have loved at all.
She can have him over for Thanksgiving!! I wonder what she will use to stuff the turkey?
no it is better to loose a lover than to love a looser
I am presently in a similar situation. My story has yet to hit the press, and is only 5 weeks old. Per the police, my wife tried to kill me two times over the course of two years. I ended up in the hospital for 4 days both times. Each time she is the one who called 911. Her method was supposedly by poison. We have been married 14 years and have two children 5 & 7 years old. She is in jail on No Bail, with a restraing order. We can have no contact of any kind. She was a stay at home Mom. I am not allowed to contact her even in regards to our kids. I have no idea what to feed them and the police nor the court care. My 5 year old has lost 5 pounds and nobody cares. This could be solved with a simple letter from her explaining what he likes to eat, but the judge refuses. The judge even said I have to file for divorce before she will consider it. While I don’t believe the police 100%, I know she did something to me. But I thought in the USA, you were presumed innocent until proven guilty. My wife has some serious mental issues, that will not be solved in prison. I am not defending her actions, but I believe she should get the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.
Don’t judge me until you are in my shoes.
Tim, Why dont you ask your son what he eats, its hard for me to believe that you have two children and have no idea how to take care of them. No wonder your wife needs help.
Tim – hire a nanny. Divorce her now, before she kills you and the kids.
He married a hooker. What do you expect?
Tim, you’re too stupid for words. Your wife probably tried to kill you to escape a life of drudgery and stultifying dinner conversation, living with a man perfectly willing to propogate children he’s too stupid to feed. How can you be so oblivious? Weren’t you ever there at dinnertime? No contact now with your kids, huh? What’s changed? Call the pediatrician — that’s a doctor for CHILDREN; the number’s probaly on that list on the fridge — go to the library, figure it out. Gain some parental competence so you can at least pretend you deserve kids. As for Dana, she’s on house arrest because, let’s face it, she’s too inept to be a real threat!
Robert R., if women put up with bad sex for money, oops, I meant “marry for money”, then based on what I’m reading here, men must marry for live-in childcare and maid service because they’re too lazy or stupid to cook or do their laundry. Heaven forbid they actually PARENT. If money’s all you’re losing, you’re getting off cheaply!
danny i like how you mention your rich you r probrbaly broke loser and with a good lawyer she can still get your money
Man, this girl is pretty ugly, literally. She’s got the ugliest lips that looked dried out and white and looks like its turned inside out like Angelina Jolie. Of course, he’s not so cute either. Why isn’t she in jail????
J, women don’t “get knocked up.” Men impregnate them. And gee, I just can’t figure out why someone would feel the need to change YOU! You’re already a PERFECT loser. If there were a god, you’d still be a virgin. There aren’t enough drugs in the world to make you worth the effort.
Horrible! Divorce is cheaper, plus its legal! What a strange world we live in. If people would only realize they will have to account for their actions in this life, but, eventually, they will have to account for them, also, in the next, and that one will be permanent. This guy might want to think about having her committed to an institute for the criminally insane for the rest of her life. I’d like to know what prompted her to such behavior if not money, which is still a sinster and terrible reason.
Wow. I wanna MARRY Danny! ‘Cuz if he’s as rich as he says, I won’t even have to care if he’s a jerk! What does a live-in nanny, live-in maid, live-in chef, personal assistant and professional escort make, all combined? Personally, I just consider alimony backpay.
Response to CJ: As offensive as Robert’s remarks are, I think it kills a debate when people start adding the words ‘most’ and ‘all’ etc. The fact is, women and men ‘tend’ to kill for different reasons. This doesn’t mean women ‘don’t’ kill for money, and ‘only’ kill after years of abuse. Sometimes the latter is the case. Sometimes women as well as men just kill for the money.Motives for and circumstances of murder varies greatly. Greed has always been a powerful motive for murder period. It’s safe to say, I think, that women ‘tend’ to kill for reasons of passion and/or emotion…but it’s not safe to say the ‘most’ do. That being said, Robert’s remarks about women only being in relationships for money is absolutely ridiculous. Many women are in it for the money, but just as many aren’t. It’s also safe to say many men routinely ‘better deal’ their spouses for younger/hotter wives when they get money. Bottom line: some people are a-holes and some are not.
Lets face it women are just as bit as violent as men, I’m sorry about your wife Tim, Don’t worry about her and take of your self. I am in a bad situation myself I take care of my daughter, while my estranged girlfriend goes to work. She is mad at me for not working despite the fact that I still recieve benefits and carry my full share of expenses. She spends like mad and always neglects being timely on her portion of rent. She has always been moody. I have seen her act out violently all through our relationship. She has a habit of trying to push my buttons by trying to destroy things in the home. When she got pregnant she had a fit one time and thought a remote at our 42 inch t.v. When she moved in with me she started hitting me. It has become very scary living with her and her mood disorder. I have been trying to get treatment for depression since all this has started. She went to a doctor once and was given medicine for Bipolar Disorder. There is a lot of stigmata about men in the world pushed by unhappy women and a biased media system. The only reason their is not as many women as their is men in jail is due to a majority of men in law enforcement who alway are sympathetic to women. a woman charm alway blinds police. I see someone here saying that the proof is in the papers that men are more violent. Just because its in the paper doesnt mean that all crimes are reported. Anyways, men don’t need this bias crap.
One more thing: If this guy’s a jerk…why marry him in the first place?? You can’t have it both ways. It almost sounds like this b*@ch’s claiming, “He’s such a jerk….but I wanted the money (emphasis on whiney voice)…so the only solution is to kill him” Nutty broad. She could always divorce him, although I guarantee she signed an iron-clad pre-nup, or (better yet) not marry the jerk in the 1st place. Now, she needs to go to prison forever because attempting to have someone murdered is certainly a crime and being a jerk is not.
