New York born and raised, Amy Fisher met Joey Buttafuoco when she took her car into his auto shop for repairs. It was May of 1991 and Amy was only 16 but soon the two were having an affair. In August of 1991, Buttafuoco set Amy up to work for an escort agency in order to help her “make some money”, but Amy later disputed this fact while appearing on The Howard Stern Show.
What can’t be disputed is that Amy asked Joey to leave his wife, Mary Jo and when he refused, she took matters into her own hands.
On May 19, 1992, 17-year-old Amy drove, with an accomplice, to the Buttafuoco’s home in Massapequa, NY. She got out of the car, went to the door and rang the bell. When Joey’s wife, Mary Jo Buttafuoco answered the door, Amy Fisher shot her in the head. Though she was severely injured and paralyzed o the right side of her face, Mary Jo survived the incident. She was able to describe her assailant to the police, including the fact that the girl had a t-shirt from her husband’s auto body shop. From this clue, Joey remembered giving Amy the shirt as a gift and he knew she was the shooter. He helped police locate her so she could be arrested.
The crime started a media circus with movie production companies offering to pay the Fisher family up to $80,000 for the movie rights, which were accepted and used to post Amy’s bail. Subsequently, three movies were made and several books were published on the subject to add to the hundreds of pages of newspaper and magazine articles about Amy, Joey and Mary Jo.
Amy Fisher was charged with attempted murder but pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated assault. In December of 1992, she was give 5 to 15 years in prison.
Evidence, such as a signed receipt from a Long Island hotel dated before Fisher’s 17th birthday, had Joey Buttafuoco up for the crime of statutory rape. He was convicted in October 1993 and served four months in jail.
Amy Fisher was sent to Albion Correctional Facility in New York. She claims that she was raped by a correctional officer at the facility and began a legal case to have the guard removed as well as a transfer for herself to a different facility. She eventually dropped the case, saying that she had lost all faith in the system. Though she walked away from the case, rape charges were eventually filed against the guard by other inmates and it led to a successful conviction.
Amy served seven years and was released in 1999. District Attorney, Denis Dillon of Nassau County agreed to set aside Fisher’s original plea bargain deal and allowed her to enter a new plea with a 3-10 year sentence. This made her available for immediate release. (This legal motion was done pursuant to the wishes of Mary Jo Buttafuoco.) Amy Fisher was let out on parole.
After her release, Amy went from being the news to writing about it. She became a columnist for the Long Island Press and won an award for her work from The Society of Professional Journalists in 2004. The Long Island Press announced Fisher’s departure from the paper in December 2005. Amy continues to be involved in campaigns for prisoners’ rights.
In 2003, Amy Fisher married Louis Bellera and the couple had two children, Brett who was born in 2001 and Ava Rose born in 2005.
In 2006 Amy Fisher reunited with Mary Jo Buttafuoco in sessions televised for Entertainment Tonight and The Insider. Fisher said she wanted to heal her past and move on with her life. Fisher and Joey Buttafuoco reunited for the coin toss at the 2006 Lingerie Bowl.
On May 13, 2007, The New York Post reported that Amy Fisher had left her husband and was going back to Joey Buttafuoco. According to the story, Amy and Joey would be going on a date at a restaurant near Central Park as part of a deal for a new reality series about the couple. Rumors about the reality series ran hot for weeks but no formal conformation could be received. During that time, Joey’s second wife, Evanka, withdrew her divorce petition, saying that the couple was going to be reunited. There’s no telling if this put an end to the reality series, or whether it was all just a rumor to begin with.
In October 2007, the New York Post published a story stating that Fisher’s estranged husband, Lou Bellera, sold a sex tape of the couple to Red Light District Video. Red Light District Video acknowledged receipt of the video and put out a press release stating their intent to sell the video on the Internet. By late October, nude pictures of Amy from the sex video were posted to a variety of sites and Red Light District began offering a teaser video showing Amy nude showering and sunbathing.
On November 6, 2007, Amy Fisher filed a lawsuit against Red Light District and its owner, David Joseph, hoping to stop the release. She claimed that the video was made for her personal use and that her (now reunited) husband had no right to sell it. On November 8, 2007, the website amyfisher.com (which Amy had previously fought to win) was pointing to the Red Light District website www.clubredlight.com.
