- 0:26is don't take a chai tea from this woman

- 0:34first time at the rodeo her husband told
- 0:37me Point Blank that she tried to kill
- 0:40him before this with some chai tea from
- 0:42Starbucks what is that anyway I don't
- 0:44even know what chai tea is but whatever

- 0:49kill him with that it didn't work Brian
- 0:52I yeah I I've yet to have coffee at
- 0:54Starbucks with Dalia but I but I'll tell
- 0:56you this much remember Nancy law school
- 0:58101 remember that Doctrine remember that
- 1:01doctrine that you got taught about fruit
- 1:03of the poisonous tree it's it's a basic
- 1:06legal concept that remember that one
- 1:08well that's that's what this case is
- 1:10about it's it's about police officers
- 1:13and law enforcement who can't break the
- 1:15rules violate the law and then use the
- 1:17evidence they've generated from from
- 1:19from a corrupt investigation to
- 1:21implicate somebody even if you think
- 1:23that person is guilty it's it's basic
- 1:25law 101 Brian let me understand this um
- 1:28your your defense is it no longer that
- 1:33when she hired a Hitman to kill her
- 1:35husband and it's all caught on video
- 1:37which I love I love watching dollia
- 1:40dipolo especially when they tell her the
- 1:42husband is dead she's like no no I love
- 1:47that so much and she bends over in grief
- 1:50blah blah blah anyway uh I also like I
- 1:53also like the one where she's got in the
- 1:55car with the Hitman and the whole thing
- 1:57is bugged and you know got tricked out
- 1:59with video
- 2:00and she's not just 100% sure she says
- 2:03what I'm a 5,000% sure I want him dead
- 2:07now I thought your defense was that that
- 2:10was really a script for reality show is
- 2:13that not the defense anymore no that
- 2:15that remember this the second trial we
- 2:17did was in late November and we got a
- 2:20jury we got a a hung jury in early
- 2:23December and in fact I I know I I brace
- 2:26yourself I I I don't want you to pass
- 2:28out or anything I'm braced
- 2:30but but five jurors in our favor it was
- 2:33three to three and then there were two
- 2:35alternate jurors in the last trial and
- 2:37and one of the TV shows I believe it was
- 2:40dat line tracked them down the two
- 2:41alternates and guess what five I I I
- 2:44must have been I must have been able to
- 2:46put something in the coffee of those
- 2:48five jurors because they voted to acquit
- 2:52Dal diolo and in fact n wa wa wait how
- 2:55did wait wait how many jurar were there
- 2:5850 yeah well well in Florida in Florida
- 3:01and by the way we're going to have the
- 3:02third trial I don't know if you knew
- 3:03this the third Tri retrial of Dal Dilo
- 3:07takes place it starts on on June
- 3:102nd I could not be happier I could not
- 3:14be happier I may just have to come down

- 3:18I something very serious you said before
- 3:20you started talking about this jur and
- 3:23that jur did this one and that one
- 3:25according to Dateline uh first they were
- 3:27alternates thank God in heaven but you
- 3:30said oh that was the defense at the
- 3:33second trial so you've got a different
- 3:36defense that's not the defense anymore
- 3:38that it was all a script yeah yeah no
- 3:41right the the the the reality script is
- 3:44not is not part of the defense for D
- 3:47well why if it's the truth because
- 3:49that's not because it's not true the the
- 3:52reality is this and a lot of your a lot
- 3:54of your she sat there in court and let
- 3:56her lawyers say all the things she said
- 3:59to Hitman she thought that was a script
- 4:03that was bad that yeah naughty
- 4:06lawyers yeah no it it it's uh yeah I
- 4:09mean you keep you keep coming back to
- 4:11this trai te or latte I mean I think
- 4:13something something must have been in
- 4:15that that shy latte of her first lawyer
- 4:19to to come up well what's the defense
- 4:22this time is wait is the defense this
- 4:25time that the police did it it's their
- 4:27fault oh I'm just so happy yeah
- 4:30look it's not it's not it's not it's not
- 4:32that it's their fault what a lot of your
- 4:34I try not to laugh out
- 4:36loud because okay I'm trying not to
- 4:39laugh out loud that first phone call
- 4:42people don't realize this the first
- 4:44phone call made by the confidential
- 4:47informant to the Boon Beach Police
- 4:49Department reported a domestic abuse
- 4:53concern and that person reported that he
- 4:56that that dollia said the following okay
- 4:58here's what she said Nancy here okay I'm
- 5:00listening I can't wait yeah she said two
- 5:03things she said number one I've been
- 5:07I've been physically abused by my
- 5:10husband and I I I either want to be dead
- 5:15or he needs to be dead that is the
- 5:17context of the first phone call and the
- 5:20problem that the state prosecutor is
- 5:22going to have in this case again is that
- 5:25nobody took serious this domestic abuse
- 5:28call they didn't they didn't filter that
- 5:30out vet it all hold on let me go back I
- 5:33want to go back even earlier than that

- 6:25money from elderly folks now that's what
- 6:27he says he says that she was an escort
- 6:30and that's how we met her why would you

- 6:51think this is a joke and I'm not trying
- 6:53to I'm not in Sunday school coffee again
- 6:56but they met at a Starbucks yes it was a
- 6:59Starbucks so that's where they met okay
- 7:02because I'm looking at evidence I'm
- 7:05looking at evidence right now which are
- 7:08texts from her phone where she is
- 7:14um where she's saying hi and she's using
- 7:18her pseudo name and he goes great let's
- 7:22hook up next week but question can we
- 7:24forget the hourly fee and just go out
- 7:26for drinks
- 7:30is that is that doll is that doll's
- 7:32phone or my or my ex-girlfriend's phone
- 7:34I can't which one is it and then he says
- 7:38um how are you coming dressed I would
- 7:41love you in a real short skirt with pink
- 7:44underwear if that's okay she writes back
- 7:47sure and she is setting up a hookup for
- 7:52money so you're telling me that's not a
- 7:54hooker yeah that's not that I haven't
- 7:57seen that no absolutely not I don't know
- 8:00where I haven't seen that Nancy that
- 8:02wasn't that's that would never come in
- 8:03that's never going to come into evidence
- 8:05anyway you know that even if that's true
- 8:07and say it was coming into evidence I'm
- 8:09asking you what the truth is well I'll
- 8:11tell you where I saw it it's in the new
- 8:13times at Broward Palm
- 8:15Beach newspaper that's where it is the
- 8:18new times I believe my it's I believe my
- 8:21client I believe I believe that's
- 8:22fiction and I don't there's no proof
- 8:24that's her phone and that she's making
- 8:26those text messages it's all heay so I I
- 8:29don't put any value into that at all I
- 8:31mean I I've known her for over two two
- 8:33years now I've got to know her family
- 8:35nobody wants to know the human side of
- 8:37her everybody I think I know the human
- 8:40side I think I know that Brian clayo I
- 8:43think I know the human side because she
- 8:45was on house arrest with her mother and
- 8:48had the right to go to her lawyer and to
- 8:51church and somehow she got pregnant
- 8:54how'd that happen on house arrest I
- 8:57think she went somewhere else hey you
- 8:59aren't suggesting I'm the dad are
- 9:02you no I hadn't thought of that but now
- 9:04that you brought it up come on wait wait
- 9:07come on you think are you suggesting
- 9:09that at one of those lawyers one of her
- 9:11meetings with the lawyers maybe that
- 9:13didn't take place at the legal office
- 9:15who knows I don't know I am just looking
- 9:18at all the texts that this woman is
- 9:21sending but you still say she's was
- 9:23never a hooker okay it looks like you're
- 9:26under dollia Dilo spell I'm worried
- 9:29about you Brian clay poool well well
- 9:31well do doy hey Nancy do you know that
- 9:33Dolly actually mentors some of the some
- 9:36of the people at church she goes she
- 9:38religiously in
- 9:40heaven so you know people you've been in
- 9:43cases before where people are portrayed
- 9:45one way in a public but they're not
- 9:47really that's not really who they are
- 9:49you know so so do Dolly so let me
- 9:51understand this you say she was not a
- 9:53hooker that she met her husband slash
- 9:56not a hooker what else what else would
- 9:57be would be murder victim at a St tried
- 10:01she never tried to put water or uh or
- 10:04engine coolant in her husband's coffee
- 10:06that was another
- 10:08ficy go ahead and then you're saying the
- 10:12First Defense that she sat there and and
- 10:14lived through where they claimed in
- 10:17front of a jury that all the things she
- 10:19said caught on tape and the way she
- 10:21cried and carried on when they told cops
- 10:24told her he was dead but actually it was
- 10:26a sting to see what she would do they
- 10:28found out about it through the alleged
- 10:30Hitman and the husband wasn't killed and
- 10:34then when she saw the husband at the
- 10:36police station she goes Mikey I didn't
- 10:38do it I didn't do it do what why would
- 10:41she say that anyway okay so you're
- 10:45saying that was not that was not true so
- 10:47the defense this time is going to be
- 10:49what what's your defense yeah the
- 10:51defense this time is that the police
