And here it is. The alleged mug shot of Danielle Staub from The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
In the preview of next week’s episode, one of the cast members holds up a book titled Cop Without A Badge, which supposedly features all sorts of dirt on Danielle’s sordid past. Thankfully, a reader sent me a juicy excerpt, which includes this pic of Danielle, who’s referred to as Beverly Merrill. Is this her real name or just a literary alias? Not sure. But what we do know is that according to the book (whose veracity cannot be vouched for), the author claims that this Beverly character had been busted for extortion, kidnapping, and possession. But don’t fret too much. It’s not like Danielle was a criminal mastermind. She merely partied with a criminal mastermind, and from the sounds of it, when that guy got busted, she got cuffed too. Sort of like an ’80s version of Adriana La Cerva.
To read all the poorly-written details, check out the excerpt here.

The book seems to be out of print (shockingly, the company that printed it went out of business) but Amazon still carries 14 or so book reviews for it, along the lines of ‘Kevin, (the cop in the title?) your Uncle Paulie and cousin Vinnie want to have a word with you’. Check it out if you haven’t already!
Wonder what is going down next week…book also claims Dani was a stripper (at Gallaghers, in the city, not too shabby, that place is still around).
glad you enjoyed the tip!
I found a copy of the book at my local library. I’m totally going to be a dork and check it out!
This could explain all her plastic surgery — she’s trying to change her face so no one will recognize her!
she looked better before imo. natural is always better. even if your features aren’t “perfect”. and the witness protection program would be good reason to “alter” your appearance which she clearly has done. haha. still looked better before though. i hate plastic surgery face/wax figures. yuck.
i would have to say that Ellen Degeneres is really great in having her show, it is an informative tv show `;`
