LuAnn De Lesseps Is ‘Looking Into Allegations of Misconduct’ Against Fired Officer Of Her Drunken Arrest!

Share This:

The officer responsible for arresting LuAnn de Lesseps in December 2017 has been fired.

Martin County Sheriff announced that Deputy Steven O’Leary had been fired on Jan. 15, after working with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office for 11 months.

O’Leary was terminated after field tests determined that three of his recent narcotics arrests did not test positive for narcotics, reported local NBC affiliate WPTV.

According to video footage from a press conference, Synder said that nine inmates have already been released from custody, and all of O’Leary’s arrests are now under review.

As a result of Steven O’Leary’s termination, Real Housewives of New York City star, 53, is having her attorney look into her drunken 2017 Christmas Eve arrest. 

“We are looking into the allegations of misconduct by Officer O’Leary and we’ll be acting accordingly.” LuAnn De Lesseps tells PEOPLE.

On Dec. 24, de Lesseps, 53, was charged with disorderly intoxication, battery of an officer/firefighter/EMT, resisting arrest with violence and threatening a public servant, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
