NEW YORK - Joey Buttafuoco is working on ABC's "Desperate Housewives" — at the show's concession stand, anyway.

Buttafuoco, who made national headlines in the early 1990s when his teenage girlfriend shot his wife in the face, is working in craft services on the Hollywood sets of TV shows, according to a story in the latest issue of Inside TV.

The 49-year-old Buttafuoco runs a concession that doles out protein shakes and ice cream to the stars of "Desperate Housewives" and "Crossing Jordan," the magazine reports.

He was a New York auto body shop owner in 1992 when his 17-year-old lover, Amy Fisher, shot his wife, Mary Jo. Fisher, nicknamed the "Long Island Lolita," served seven years in prison.

Buttafuoco pleaded guilty to one count of statutory rape and served four months in jail. He and his wife later moved to California and divorced.

Last year he was sentenced to a year in jail and five years of probation after pleading guilty to auto insurance fraud. In August, he was charged with illegal possession of ammunition and pleaded not guilty.

Yeah. We posters of age on this forum remember this clown only too well.

Someone on a tight timeline without a decent editor to fix it.

Joey has had Karma bite his ass hard I see. What an assclown.

He's not good enough for that job...

God, I had hoped to never see his butt-ugly face again. I remember years ago every time I turned on Geraldo, or Donahue, there was his smug face smiling at me. At least his wife finally wisened up and dumped his ass.
