Dalia Dippolito, Poison Candy, The Steubenville Rape and More with Mark Ebner

Crime writer Mark Ebner joins Crime Time to talk about the scandalous case of Dalia Dippolito (convicted of trying to have her husband killed) and the Steubenville rapists who took to twitter to post their crime against a 16 year old girl.
Mark also speaks on the problem with Florida and the justification for profiting off of criminals who lash out at society. Mark has a million things to say about it and you should look for his upcoming book on Dippolito, Poison Candy.
