Buttafuoco Showdown! Joey Suing Mary Jo

Filed under: Legal Matters

buttafuocov.jpg

Joey Buttafuoco will be holding a press conference Wednesday to discuss his lawsuit against his ex-wife, Mary Jo Buttafuoco, and the "defamatory content" in her new bestseller, Getting It Through My Thick Skull - Why I Stayed, What I Learned, and What Millions of People Involved with Sociopaths Need to Know.

Such a fantastic title!!!!!!

Joey's lawyer claims the allegations made by Mary Jo in her tell-all are "venomous lies," primarily the "countless references… describing and diagnosing him as a sociopath."

His lawyer also goes on to say that the "defamatory statements are beyond the pale" and has transformed his client into "a pariah in the community, causing him not just public embarrassment but the loss of business."

Oh, boo-hoo!

Buttafuoco is not only suing his ex wife, he's also suing Publishing Company Health Communication Inc., the publisher responsible for distributing Mary Jo's book.

His affair with an underage Amy Fisher, charges of auto insurance fraud and picking up hookers tarnished Buttafuoco's name - not the book!

Soooooooooooo Joey is a jackass and should just sit back let this woman who survived almost being killed do her thing!!! I will be buying this book!!! I will be glad to support her….Good for you Mary Jo

      Mary took a bullet for this dipshiz and so he should think of it as therapy for her - Joey should just bonk the f off.



    3. 3

      Not to mention the fact that he got his GF to shot her in the head. But no biggy.

      Hmmmm Hurt from a bullet or the head or hurt from simple words (that are true). Yeah thats fair. Good for Mary Jo! And she looks good too!



    6. 6

      He's an ass and is certainly more than a sociopath….more like a child molester…..



    7. 7

      I already thought Joey Buttafuoco was a pariah in the community…doesn't take Mary Jo's book to convince people of that!

      Good for Mary Jo!!!

      Haha, I love the expression on his face in that (and every) picture.
      The ongoing Italian exlamation of "AAaaaaay!"
      As in, "aaay, where da canolis?" "aaayy, gianni, hows ya motha?" "aaay, don' worry baby i just got tested…"

      that guy is unreal. what a complete douchebag! he has some nerve suing her after all he put her through. he cheated on her with some underage skank who he eggs on to kill her and she gets shot in the face and then has to put up with her douchebag loser husband actually denying her slept with the tramp or urged her to try to kill his wife. i hate that guy so much. he's such a creep and anything his wife says about him is most likely true. if anyone deserves to profit off of that shit happened back then, it's the true victim of that whole thing. i remember that loser actually making pornos a few years back and i think that spoiled little whore does too now. She had plastic surgery and changed her name after she was released from jail but people like her and that buttafuckface need to be in jail. the rest of society doesn't need to mix with scum like that!!

      Who are these people? Who cares?



    11. 11

      This book would have made dealing with my ex SO much easier. I know what I'll be reading next.

      I immediately formed the same opinion as Mary Jo after watching the things this man did and said back when this all became public. OK, then, he's not a sociopath. He is just a clinical walking perfect example of one.



    13. 13

      Geeze, what a poor little "victim" he is!



    14. 14

      What a big ASSHOLE..His wife gets shot because of his cheating and lies and he's suing now?? Are you kidding me?? What he should be doing is FOREVER kissing his ex-wifes ass after all the pain, suffering, humiliation and crap she had to go through because of this disgrace. Somebody should shoot him in the head and I hope he dies. His own kids hate him. Scumbag.



    15. 15

      she shoulda done a Bobbitt and cut his teeny pecker off. what a fucktard this guy is.



    16. 16

      He sucks!



    17. 17

      OH PLEASE….JOEY BUTT-A-FUCKO….GIVE IT A REST….YR OUT OF MONEY ARENT YA? GONNA SUE THE WIFE YOU ALMOST HAD KILLED FOR SOME OF HER HARD EARNED MONEY? GO FUCK YRSELF BUTTER-FUCKO….



    18. 18

      That POS needs to still be in jail. Hope Mary Jo makes lots of cash and the dillweed and the c__t that shot MJ go away and STFU!



    19. 19

      Buttafuoco? I want a last name like that.



    20. 20

      And let's not forget he hooked up AGAIN with Amy just a few years ago. What a slap in the face! He forgave her and they were going to get back together or something, but then I guess no one was really paying attention so they nixed that idea. Anyone remember that?



    21. 21

      This PROVES what a sociopath he is. Joey seriously believes THIS BOOK caused people to think badly of him. Mary Jo is only now conceding how the rest of us plainly saw Joey 17 years ago - a repulsive, narcissistic A-hole.



    22. 22

      Oh hells bells this guy is a piece of work not only did he use a young slut to try and take his wife out he skated with nothing happening to him and at the time I thought wtf is up with his wife thinking he didn't have anything to do with the attempt on her life~he is a joke and always has been, the fact that she is putting it on paper isn't new to anyone else. Take your medicine asshole and shut your piehole!



    23. 23

      LOVE THE TITLE!



    24. 24

      Good to see she's over the whole ordeal >.>
      When are they going to just say "let's hug it out"? I mean I know Amy Fisher isn't thinking about this anymore…..



    25. 25

      Mary Jo looks fantastic! Rub his face in it, let him come up for air only to open his yap to fill it with more of his bullshit. Good for her! I'll be buying that book!



    26. 26

      WHY DOESN'T THE NARCISSISTIC ARROGANT PSYCHOPATH COUNTER SUE HIMSELF THEN. HE IS THE ONLY ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS REPUTATION! LOSER.

      I THINK LONG ISLAND SHOULD SUE HIM! HE BROUGHT US AS A PLACE AND COMMUNITY A TARNISHED REP AND GAVE EVERYONE THE IMPRESSION THAT HE REPRESENTS THE PEOPLE HERE. HE DOESN'T!!

      EVERYONE WITH THE LAST NAME BUTTAFUOCO SHOULD SUE HIM!

      He's such an asshole. He should be worshipping his ex wife for not having him thrown in jail as an accomplice!!! Even his kids hate him. I wish he'd find a big rock and climb under it!!!! GO MARY JO GO!!! (side note - why does this story never get old????)



    28. 28

      all men are dogs! i went eith this cuban guy who treated womwn the same way, he lied first about being married, then he said he was still married but shunned by his wife, than he spned over 18,000 dollars with me plus a trip to europe he never talked about his wife, but when he did he was very disrespectful towards her and it looked like he was ewith her because of a marriage with a forgotten prenup. all the money in the world wont buy a man love. not beautiful women not fast cars, because their egos are bigger than life! and that is why thay have a secrewt life with other men. it you want a quick reality check men use women for their ego to show off, when in reality what thy want is a big fat dick in their mouth! and a thrusting prick up their ass.



    29. 29

      Joey can fuck off. Mary Jo went though hell and deserves the best in life.



    30. 30

      Obviously he's a scumbag, but "sociopath" is a psychiatric diagnosis. If you call someone that on the cover of a book, you'd better be sure the person was officially diagnosed, or else it's no surprise they would sue you.



    31. 31

      WOW what an interesting turn for events…. hes ballsy… this guy almost got her killed because he couldnt keep his dick in his pants, and now hes suing her…

      One complete defense to libel and slander: the truth. All Mary Jo needs to show is that what she wrote is true. If it's true, it's not libel/slander.



    34. 34

      omg….get a life…move on….that scene is sooo over and they are still milking it. She got shot in the face for christ's sake…



    35. 35

      Truth is an absolute defense against defamation. So all she has to do is demonstrate in court that Joey is a sociopath. THAT shouldn't be difficult. Wonder if he'll like being an Official Sociopath better than just being an undiagnosed one.



    36. 36

      Ummm your girlfriend SHOT her in the head!! She can say whatever she wants to! Idiot.



    37. 37

      GO MARY JO!!! HE IS A DICK HEAD



    38. 38

      who really cares about buttfucko and why?



    39. 39

      LOL - he thinks this book turned him into a pariah — duh! He did that to himself! Karma's great!
