Jersey Shore Star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro’s Criminal Past
Jersey Shore Star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro’s Criminal Past
August 17, 2011GossipweloveA Jersey Shore star has hid a secret criminal past for years.
Star Magazine has uncovered Jersey Shorecast mate Ronnie Ortiz-Magro lied about being arrested for drugs and drunk driving.
Ronnie was arrested in 2009 after cameras on the hit MTV reality show caught on tape a vicious fight between the beefy New York born star and another man outside a bar in Seaside Heights, New Jersey.
At the time Ronnie, 25, claimed it was the first time he’d ever been arrested and was spared a prison term for the beating.
However, in its latest issue, Star reveals Ronnie’s secret shame -- he had been arrested on multiple charges six years prior to his assault charge.
On May 15, 2005, a then 19-year-old Ronnie was pulled over and arrested by police five miles from his parents’ home in Bethlehem, Pa.
According to the magazine, Ronnie was charged with “drunken driving, underage drinking, possession of marijuana and traffic violations”.
Pulled over in the early hours of the morning, according to a local report the star had blood-alcohol ratio of .13 percent. Documents obtained by Star show the four charges were misdemeanors.
However, while Ronnie was charged on all four counts just what punishment he received is missing from the public record.
