Buttafuoco has been convicted of crimes since the 1992 shooting incident:  The significant coverage of the shooting incident made Buttafuoco a minor celebrity. During Fisher's trial, Buttafuoco appeared frequently on mainstream and tabloid news programs and talk shows and gave multiple interviews to all forms of media. David Letterman, in his last year of hosting "Late Night with David Letterman", discussed the incident so often that Buttafuoco's name was a recurring punchline, while "Saturday Night Live" parodied the case in multiple sketches. In 2002, Buttafuoco participated in "Celebrity Boxing", originally slated to oppose John Wayne Bobbitt, who dropped out after being arrested for domestic abuse. Bobbitt was replaced by female pro wrestler Joanie "Chyna" Laurer. Buttafuoco, despite being booed, won the fight in a majority decision (29–28, 29–27, 28–28). In 2006, he and Fisher were reunited at the Lingerie Bowl for the coin toss. On May 23, 2007, Mary Jo Buttafuocco appeared on "Larry King Live" to discuss the recent reunion of her ex-husband and the former "Long Island Lolita." At the time, Buttafuoco's second wife, Evanka, had recently filed for divorce, but withdrew her divorce petition on June 22, 2007. Joey Buttafuoco appeared in an episode of "Judge Pirro", successfully suing an adult film actress for failure to pay an auto body bill. Sixteen years after the incident, Mary Jo Buttafuoco wrote a book telling her story, "Getting It Through My Thick Skull: Why I Stayed, What I Learned, and What Millions of People Involved with Sociopaths Need to Know". She was inspired to write the book after her son referred to her ex-husband as a sociopath. Not knowing what the word meant, she looked it up and had a realization leading to her going public with her story.
