‘Real Housewives’ star Dina Manzo’s ex-husband Thomas Manzo was convicted of hiring a mobster to physically assault her then-boyfriend Dave Cantin in 2015.
The ex-husband of former “Real Housewives of New Jersey' star Dina Cantin, previously Dina Manzo, was convicted of hiring a mobster to assault her then-boyfriend in 2015, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey said in a statement Tuesday. Thomas Manzo's case — described by a federal agent as almost like a 'bad TV crime drama' — concluded this week when a unanimous jury found him guilty of planning the attack against Dave Cantin, who Dina married in 2017.
'He will now face just punishment for his crimes,' U.S. Atty. Philip R. Sellinger said. During the almost three-week trial, federal prosecutors argued that Manzo hired John Perna of the Lucchese crime family to attack Cantin. Perna, a fully initiated member of the mafia, otherwise known as a 'made man,' and a crew member assaulted Cantin on July 18, 2015. The attack, prosecutors said, left Cantin with 'significant injuries.
