So we all heard the news about Taryn Manning and her brawl with her assistant where she punched and chocked Holliann Hartman who is believed to be the 8 mile actress make-up artist, Manning is been represented by attorney Joseph Tacopina.
Controversial courtroom figure Joseph Tacopina was born to working-class Italian immigrants in the Sheepshead Bay area of Brooklyn. He talks of “paying my way with student loans” through Brooklyn’s prestigious Poly Prep County Day School; where he was a champion wrestler, Skidmore (where the true-crime book Fatal Vision triggered an interest in law) and the University of Bridgeport law school. He still identifies himself as a regular guy, who learned life’s lessons on the playgrounds of Brooklyn.
For the sake of his high profile clientele; Tacopina has had a successful career; all of them sure feel like they are in good hands as he likes to “take on cases no one thinks can be won”
Between some of his famous clients can be mention:
· Long Island teen Diana Bianchi
· the girl in the Peter Cook–Christie Brinkley love triangle
· Joran van der Sloot, the Dutch teenager arrested on suspicion of killing American Natalee Holloway in the Caribbean
And most recently Taryn Manning!
Actress Taryn Maning who has seen herself on a tiny itty bitty issue with the law. The 33 year old was ordered to stay away from her 23-year-old assistant Holliann Hartman after violently beating her up!
Taryn punched her, scratched and kicked Holliann Hartman in the face; scratched her face and neck; choked her; and slammed her head against the floor!
Taryn was in court today on criminal charges of assault and obstruction of breathing or blood circulation!!! Jeeezzz! This sounds more like cage match or something! And the poor make up girl had no chance at all.
But Taryn’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, tells TMZ that he spoke with Holly, who indicated she did not want to press charges … and he told the judge this as well. Tacopina says Holly told him she and Taryn love each other very much and she wants this whole thing to just go away. All I can say is that love is blind sometimes and so is law!
If you are also having problems with the law or know someone who you know who to call and do like Manning did!
