Mary Jo Buttafuoco: "The Bullet in My Head Will Get Me Eventually"

Mary Jo Buttafuoco, the woman who survived a near-fatal shooting in a notorious 1992 case, says the bullet still lodged in her head "will get me eventually." Her story of survival, addiction, and healing is the subject of a new biopic titled "I Am Mary Jo Buttafuoco." Buttafuoco was shot in the face on her own doorstep by Amy Fisher, then a teenager. Fisher was having an affair with Buttafuoco's husband, Joey. The media sensationalized the case, calling Fisher the "Long Island Lolita." The attack left Buttafuoco with lasting injuries and chronic pain. She later struggled with addiction to prescription painkillers. Now, decades later, she is sharing her full story. The film aims to move beyond the tabloid headlines to show her personal journey of recovery.
