Joey and Mary Jo Buttafuoco's Daughter Says Shooting Led to 'Complete Inability to Be Able to Love Somebody'

"After the shooting, there was zero degree of normalcy," she says in a new interview.

Joey, Mary Jo and Amy shot to fame after Fisher shot Mary Jo in the head on May 19, 1992. Fisher, who was 17 at the time of the shooting, had been involved in an affair with Joey. In an attempt to get Mary Jo out of the picture, Fisher fired a .25-caliber handgun at Joey's wife on the porch of their home.

Buttafuoco only admits that his relationship with Fisher was "inappropriate," without getting into details. "That's as far as I'm gonna go with that," he told "20/20." Regardless of what he did or didn't do, however, his and Fisher's actions had a profound affect on his daughter. "What sticks out the most now is — and it makes me kind of sad — is I drew a lot of pictures," she explained. "I colored a lot of coloring books so he could post it on his wall. You know, and that's just messed up. That's a messed-up exchange between a father and daughter to have to do."She added that there "was zero degree of normalcy" following the shooting and her parents didn't help things.
