“Mob Wives” star Drita D’Avanzo wants the judge in her husband’s federal gun case to cut him a little slack come sentencing, and she fired off a handwritten letter to make her case.
Drita wrote to Judge Kovner, pleading with him to show leniency on Lee D’Avanzo because he’s a caring family man who needs to come home to his wife and kids.
In the handwritten letter, obtained by TMZ, Drita says Lee is an amazing father to their children who “never missed a soccer game and was very involved in our kids school work and any activities they were involved in. He is a family man and is missed!”
Drita adds … Lee “has a family that is fully supporting him and hoping he comes home soon!”
Lee pled guilty to gun possession charges in March after the NYPD raided the family home and allegedly found 2 loaded handguns. Drita was eventually cleared of all charges.
Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Richard P. Donaghue prosecuted the case against Lee, and the sentencing hearing is scheduled for Wednesday.
Based on the penal code and the probation department’s recommendations D’Avanzo could get anywhere from about 3 to 6 years … it’s totally up to the judge. So, we’ll see if Drita’s letter had makes a difference.
