Milania Giudice’s reaction inside a Montville Township police car is now public. Page Six got dashcam footage from the department on Friday. It shows officers putting a handcuffed Giudice in the back seat after her arrest on May 14.
As an officer buckles her seatbelt, the 20-year-old appears to scoff while speaking. She then looks toward the open door, lets out a laugh, and turns forward with a smile still on her face. For the rest of the ride to headquarters, she sits quietly.
A second angle from another squad car shows activity outside Teresa Giudice and Luis Ruelas’s New Jersey home, where the incident happened. However, that footage was heavily redacted.
What The Case Actually Alleges
The police report says Milania was “throwing food and candles” during a “domestic violence dispute” at home. Her sister, Gabriella, called 911 just before 6:15 p.m. She told the operator that her sister was “acting erratically.”
At her arraignment on Tuesday, the judge stated the charges. Milania “knowingly caused bodily injury to another.” She struck the victim, LR, in the head with her fist. This caused redness on the middle of LR’s forehead during a domestic dispute. The report noted no weapons were involved.
She was booked on one count of simple assault and released pending her next court date. She has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, she could get six months in jail, probation, and fines over $500. Her next hearing is set for August.
Why The Laughing Matters To This Story
Milania hasn’t talked about the dashcam footage, the arraignment details, or the police report. But the footage lands as part of a consistent pattern in how she has handled this entire ordeal in public.
On June 29, she used TikTok to mock a fake AI-generated mugshot instead of discussing the charge. “I ate down in my mugshot. I looked fire. I mean, nothing to be proud of, but I made sure of that,” she said, before adding, “It is what it is. S**t happens in life. You gotta learn from it and just become a better person and talk about it.”
She also alluded to a difficult period without specifics. “I was not in a good area in my life. I’ve been through a lot in life, and some other stuff happened to me. Just because you guys think you know everything that happens in my life, you just really don’t.”
Laughing in a squad car or joking about a mugshot doesn’t mean anything legally. They show a clear picture of someone who treats a serious charge with visible detachment. This detachment has kept the story in the headlines while the case moves slowly through the court system.
