Michael Dippolito's first wife speaks out

BOYNTON BEACH, FL -- Dalia Dippolito is accused of trying to hire a hit man to kill her husband. Michael Dippolito's first wife released the following statement:

"I have known Mike for over 10 years and he is a good guy. We had a good marriage and he always made me happy and feel deserved. Our divorce was a result of differences that could not be worked out. He was a great husband and is a great man. We had our normal marital issues, but nothing out of the norm.
 
I have NO comment on my ex-Husband’s criminal history except to say that in my opinion he has turned his life around for the positive and I wish him good luck. 

I am sorry to see what he is going through. It is unfortunate that someone would do this to another human being".
 
- Maria Dippolito
