New York, NY – On February 12, 2018, congressional candidate Juliet Germanotta was arrested after she tried to defraud a jeweler.
On September 19, 2017, Germanotta purchased a $4,800 ring from a jeweler in Manhattan, NY. Once she received the ring, Germanotta said she did not like the ring and wanted a refund.

NYPD detectives obtained a warrant and arrested Germonatta in Wisconsin. On February 14, 2018,� Germonatta was extradited to the Midtown North Precinct.
