‘Mob Wives’ Star Renee Graziano Arrested for DUI!

“Mob Wives” alum Renee Graziano was arrested for a DUI on Tuesday after crashing her car in Staten Island.
On Wednesday, the Daily Mail reported that the crash happened at 10:19 p.m. at the intersection of Arden Avenue and Arthur Kill Road.
Per reports, the VH1 personality’s 2020 Nissan Murano struck an unoccupied 2020 Jeep Wrangler.
Law enforcement insiders also told TMZ that Graziano’s vehicle rolled over to the other side of the road.
Sources from the Daily Mail say that when cops arrived at the scene, Graziano exited the driver’s seat and allegedly appeared to be intoxicated due to her incoherent, slurred speech and watery eyes.
The outlet says she also told police that she had taken Adderall earlier in the day.
Ultimately, she was taken to a nearby hospital to be examined, and was then transported to a local police precinct and charged with the misdemeanor crime of operating a motor vehicle while impaired by drugs.
On Wednesday, the Daily Mail says Graziano was spotted leaving through the back entrance of a criminal court.
A spokesperson for the Office of the District Attorney of Richmond County told “E! News” that while they have not filed any charges on their end, the case remains under investigation.
Graziano — the daughter of Anthony Graziano, a former consigliere of the Bonanno crime family — appeared on the hit reality TV show from 2011 to 2016 and also appeared on “Celebrity Big Brother,” where she placed third.
In a 2018 interview with Radar Online, Graziano opened up about her struggles, revealing she had been to rehab for depression and addiction to prescription pain pills.
“When I’ve gone to rehab, it’s been because I would get high to not feel, to suppress my feelings and get out of my own head,” she told the blog. “It has never been about partying. It’s been more about trying not to feel all of the physical and emotional pain from the abuse I’ve suffered.”
However, she told InTouch that same year that she hopes to use her celebrity to help others in need.
“We cannot deny that depression and addiction don’t come hand in hand all over the world. And if me being a celebrity could stand up and show somebody a difference, maybe get two or three kids to try [rehab]… it’s a blessing. I don’t feel that I was cursed with the disease of addiction. I felt it was a blessing.”
