Wiki |
Amy Elizabeth Fisher (born August 21, 1974) is an American woman who became known as the "Long Island Lolita" by the media, after the 1992 shooting of Mary Jo Buttafuoco, the wife of her older lover Joey Buttafuoco. She began her relationship with Buttafuoco when she was 16 year-old student at Kennedy High School in Bellmore, New York. Fisher served seven years in prison for first-degree aggravated assault. The case had drawn the attention of the media. Since her parole in 1999, Fisher has become a journalist, writer, and a porn star.
Fisher was born in Merrick, New York to Elliot and Roseann Fisher, an Italian-American mother and a Jewish-American father. At age 16, she began a sexual relationship with Joey Buttafuoco. On May 19, 1992, 17-year-old Fisher had an accomplice drive her to the Buttafuoco home in Massapequa, New York. When Mary Jo Buttafuoco answered the door, Fisher told her that Joey was having an affair with Amy's younger sister, providing a t-shirt advertising Joey's auto body shop for her "proof". When Mary Jo turned away Amy shot her in the head on the front porch and left the property.
Fisher was charged with first-degree attempted murder, but pleaded guilty to one count of assault in the first degree, and in December 1992 sentenced to 5-15 years in prison.
