A lot of information has come out recently about NJ Housewives’ Danielle Staub. People gave a great summary of all allegations about Danielle from the book, Cop Without A Badge. The above mugshot also came from the book. All of the information below comes directly from this book. The story is told by Kevin Maher, an ex criminal who also happens to be Danielle’s ex.
1) The book reveals Danielle, 46, as a woman named Beverly Merrill, a one-time stripper with a criminal past.
2) Felon-turned-FBI informant named, Kevin Maher, says he met Danielle at a drug party in Miami in the ’80s.
3) Their meeting came after she was released on $10,000 bail following an arrest on charges that she was involved in the kidnapping of a man who owed her drug dealer friend money.
4) This led to Danielle and her dealer friend being caught by police and charged with extortion, kidnapping and possession after they failed to collect a ransom from their victim’s father.
5) Kevin Maher used his police connections to help get Danielle get a deal. She pleaded guilty only to the charge of extortion and was sentenced to five years probation.
6) Kevin and Danielle would go on to date and get married. The two would wound up separating as Kevin was still married to another woman, and did not like the fact that Danielle was still stripping.
7) Danielle’s real name is Beverly Merrill, but she went by the name Danielle when stripping. I’m guessing she later decided her stripper name was best once this book came out.
The book also exposes more secrets about Danielle’s aversion to wearing underwear, her drug use and sleeping with more than 1,000 men.
The book also includes more sensational reports about Merrill’s aversion to wearing underwear, her drug use and sleeping with more than 1,000 men.
Sighs, what are my thoughts on Danielle? I think Bethenny Frankel summed it up best when she blogged, “Danielle is the fascinating character with her many levels. She seems desperate and tragic, yet she is really upfront and honest which lessens the desire to loathe her.”
I like Danielle. I am more concerned with people who seem to live in glass houses. We all have pasts. Poor thing.lol
She will spin this in her favor. I can see it now. She will come out with a line of handcuffs and they will sell.lol
Lol at line of handcuffs.
I wonder if anyone, even Bravo, have thought what all of this terrible baggage, will do to her beautiful daughters? I can’t believe that this will be all over the place and her daughters will have to go through all of this! Now, that is tragic!
It will be diamond encrusted and stuff. I really do see this in the future for her. Fuzzzy ones and then you have cop without a badge real one.lol. I am sure they will be fine. I dont think for people who sign their privacy away. I am sure she will get them to counseling or not.
It’s not up to us to judge. Indivuals have to live with what they have done. We all will face judgement someday. I hope she and her girls can live a nice life now.
I agree. But then again Danielle had not problem talking about all her sexual escapades on camera knowing that her kids would eventually see and hear about that as well. I think she’s disgusting.
SHE is the most SELF CENTERED, disgusting , desperate, MONEY HUNGRY PIG I HAVE EVER SEEN……
I agree with Becky. Danielle talks about having phone sex with a stranger that she met online and later setting up a date with this same stranger. What kind of an example is she setting for her daughters? In an age where parents are concerned about what their children are doing online, this 46 yr old woman is meeting men online & setting up rendevous…unbelievable.
I go buy their houses every day. Danielle’s house nees serious “refreshing”.
I just love these cat fights!
She knew this book was in exsistance she had it in her power to be up front and the first one to bring it to the light. But no she choose to change her name and denie everything. Lessons learned by her daughters will probably be lie, lie and denie then change your name in hopes of covering up.
Own it, claim it.
I feel most sorry for Danielle’s daughters in all this drama because when they get older and review any of this, they will see the truth about their Mother. Danielle had no right to disrupt a party given by Teresa and Joe for her own selfish reasons. If she had a problem with what she “believed” Dina said, she should have taken it up with her. Instead, she’s badmouthing Dina to Jacqueline, who she claims is her best friend, yet she knows how uncomfortable it makes Jacqueline feel. The woman has absolutely no clue as to what a lady is and to hear her daughter talk about how the “other women” weren’t acting like ladies was heartbreaking.
I think Danielle refuses to believe that Caroline told other people about the book because it makes her wrong and she refuses to admit she does anything wrong now. She’ll admit to a past but that’s it. After all, at the dinner party she was talking about how Teresa was pissed at her because “a book had been written about her”. As if that was why Teresa blew up! What a lying b*tch! She knew it was because she brought the book to Teresa’s party and tried to ruin everyone else’s night, not because a book was written about her! Danielle needs to go away. I hope she never finds a wealthy man to sucker in again to take care of her and her girls. She belongs back on the streets where she probably came from. I really got a kick out of her talking about where Dina lived before she moved into her current house. Dina is fine and can support herself as has been proven on the show. Danielle is crying about how she needs to find someone to take care of her. Wake up, Danielle, and go get a job like a real woman would if she cared about her future and more importantly, the future of her daughters!
Come on people, let’s be for real. She knew that the book exsisted but she did not have to tell anyone about it if she did not want to. She took the chance to not expose the book herself so that maybe she will be the most talked about housewife in the history of the show. It wouldn’t be anything to talk about if she had exposed it herself, just makes it seem like someone it out to get her…duh, who would want to. Her children are the ones who will suffer and I feel sorry for them because she tells them everything that she does, so what kind of example is she setting for them. She is telling them its okay to have sex with whomever you want to because mommy does it. I hope she gets the fame that she expects because then maybe she can have some plastic surgery to make herself not look so much like a man. I’m glad her children don’t look like her. Maybe they were adopted.
that bitch iis crazy ok.
I would never want her around my kids like come danielle iis fake .
Biggest Loser in all of this is Jacqueline. First off, how could Danielle even think she can break a unity among friend/family that has been there for years? by using Jacqueline as the vehicle and befriending her? Jacqueline you’re a sucker. You trying to “stand up for what is right” is self-serving because it is obvious what you were doing was finding a way to direct YOUR anger towards your sister-in-laws especially Dina. I’m sure if Jackie’s husband were not there at the dinner table she would have never come out so aggressively towards Dina, who said it perfectly ” I can’t stomach you” …and “this has nothing to do with your book”….
Danielle and Jackie are the (2) who have changed throughout checking-in and out of situations when Caroline, Dina and Theresa have been the same people and have not changed who they are – - keeping it REAL! Danielle you have NO class whatsoever, what are you teaching your girls? Phone sex? How to give up the goodies and then some? Get a job. I’d respect you more for being a stripper. Cut the BS of playing tough guy and poor victim – DRAMA, DRAMA, you’re the kind of woman who REAL women can’t stand and believe me it isn’t because of your looks/lack of them, you’re a weak being!
Okay most of yall have good points, but come on if you have something in your pass that you didnt want no one to know of, you too would keep your mouth shut. i think i would of done the same thing and brang the book to the dinner, you want to talk about me, well do it here when im in front of you, so that i can give my explenation. If what the book says is true, then yeah she has a real trubbled passed. If she is in your live well then be careful but dont judge until you know the truth and even then, i think we where all tought not to judge. She will be judge later by GOD
We all something in your passed, BUT we are NOT on a national TV show or in the public eye of a nation! Is this woman what we want to represent the USA to ever nation in the world when this show goes overseas or in reruns overseas?
I doubt it!
regardless she is hot and having a past like that makes her hotter!
YOUR A DIRTY TRAMP. PROSTITUTION WHORE. HAHA.
NO PLASTIC SURGERY MY ASS. THAT FACE LIFT CAN TOUCH THE MOON.
YOUR SO DISPICABLE. I DON’T EVEN PITY YOU.
Danielle is soo pathetic. She belongs in an institution.
And for getting so upset over the book coming out thats just
stupid. It was a published biography of course someones going to
come across it. Own up to what you did and what you are and stop
playing the victim. You disgust me.
ps. Caroline is a boss ! And she’ll kick your ass. haha.
no we dont need no one to represent the USA like that, but there are bad people in the USA and well as in every other country. People make mistakes and are intitled to change and if they change forreal to be good, is it our job to keep bringing up there pass. I always said that your mouth can be your biggest enemy but not in this case, she wantted to burry the pass and move on. she now has kids and i think she want a better life for them, but spitful people wanna drag thing out and now make this apart of not only her life, but the life of her kids. I believe that when someone writes a biography slandering someone is more out of spite and well all about the money. You will be the stupid one buying this book, who knows maybe both Danielle and her ex might be making cash from this book or if not her ex who admits it all, now has your cash in his pockets. think about that.
Anyone with an indictment containing info like that, which is available to the public for their reading enjoyment, is either stupid or needs the attention. Makes one wonder if the youg guys, the attitude and her body are all just part of her hustle……….
her poor girls
No doubt if there were questions regarding a person you and your family were involved with, would’nt you want to check this out before exposure to your children? Absolutely! Danielle’s attitude with free thought and speech to her daughters is dead wrong. No child wants to know all their parents dirty secrets at a young age like that. Put the big fat violin away Danielle…stop feeling so sorry for yourself…Oh, I was beaten, I was victimized….Blah blah blah…get over yourself tramp…The truth hurts…..Go Caroline!
she sure is POPULAR isn’t she!! =)
She is a low life skanky ho or a “pig” as Kims boyfriend so simply summed his thoughts on her up. Interesting watching the many faces of Danielle…Pittiful Daniel, tough Daniel, mommy of the year Daniel, slutty Daniel, so shy to show my body because I got caught sending video tape of myself masturbating and playing the poor me card…(lmao) or I need a poss((ey because everyone is trying to hurt me Danielle, (and in reality no one gives a shit about you or wants to be around your scummy scrawney ass) many faces of Danielle…
What is up with this Dorky Danny guy who is trying to be Mr. Tough Guy and his meathead sidekick who only nods to everything like Danny, they are a joke. Love how you were buying Danny a suit and the moron was going to try it on in the store. You 3 stooges are a riot. Do you pay them to be your friends? or are they doing it for free to get on camera?
Love the way you all play up to the camera..your a sad example of a parent/role model. Jacquieline runs circles around you in the “mommy” department ho
your face can’t get any tighter so own up to the face work you’ve had done, you look like a clown…your a poor sport and need to get a grip and take a good look at yourself as to why ALL these women don’t want to be around you and own it.
Dina is beautiful, inside and out…you are jealous of her beauty, her having a husband, beautiful home and inner beauty and talent none of which you posses. Everyone see’s through you except for the ones who want to be on TV obviously.
Do you ever do anything else besides bitch and moan and talk shit about these women? your a coke whore, convicted fellon and your ugly inside and out, you need serious help.
Oh and love how you were crying to the realtor at your house with your sob story without any tears coming out. Your a crappy actress and that poor woman’s face was like OMG…DRAMA QUEEN! your gross
I felt really sorry for Danielle. It seems she made an awful lot of mistakes in her past, but the biggest mistake she made was trying to ingratiate herself with the Manzos and the rest. Caroline lets herself down by her totally unforgiving attitude. I had to laugh when I watched her squirm on the Reunion of Season 2. She couldn’t believe Jacqueline wanted to let all the negativity go, and not keep mercilessly picking on her. In this instance, forgiveness and mercy conquered all. Holier than thou cows should be first in the queue for hellfire and damnation, especially ones that lie and connive to get their own way. I now believe Theresa is having a lot of trouble with her family – they’re all certifiable. And Danielle you should never ever have anything to do with any of them, keep a low profile and stick with your friends like Danny. He talks a lot of sense. Best of luck to you and your girls.
