Bail for the son of a “Mob Wives” star was slashed to $15,000 yesterday after his lawyer argued that it had been set at $200,000 one day earlier because of the mom’s so-called fame.
Anthony “A.J.” D’Onofrio — the accused drug-dealer son of Angela “Big Ang” Riola — got the break after Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Mark Dwyer admitted he was clueless about the VH1 reality-TV show.
“Oh, that’s the case everyone is talking about,” Dwyer said. “I’m the only person who doesn’t know anything about this.”
Defense lawyer Lance Lazarro argued for the reduced bail, claiming prosecutors had asked for a pumped-up bond because of who “Big Ang” was.
D’Onofrio, 23, is charged with selling cocaine to an undercover detective in December.
