A woman is accused of hiring a hit man to kill her husband and she says it was only an attempt to get a reality TV show deal. INSIDE EDITION has the details.
A woman is accused of hiring a hitman to kill her husband of just six months. This is what she had to say to the "hitman" who turned out to be an undercover cop.
Undercover cop: "Sure you want to kill this dude?"
Dalia Dippolito: "I'm positive, like, 5000 percent sure."
Dalia Dippolito claims it was all a hoax she cooked up with her husband, Mike. She says they orchestrated the whole thing to get a deal for a reality TV show like Jersey Shore, one of their favorites!
In court today, Mike denied it was a hoax, insisting he truly feared for his life.
Cops set up a fake murder scene outside the couple's Boynton Beach, Florida home. Dalia burst into tears when cops told her Mike had been murdered.
But then when her husband walked into a police interrogation room alive and well, she said, "Mike, come here! Come here, please!"
Will the reality TV defense work? Right now, the only reality seems to be this: nobody has ever seen a trial quite like this.
