Jon Bon Jovi’s Daughter Overdoses on Heroin, Paramedics found Teen Unresponsive!

Jon Bon Jovi’s daughter overdosed Wednesday night in her college dorm.  The 19 year old is attending Hamilton College, a small, private liberal arts school located in Clinton, New York.

Just around 2 A.M. someone called 911, reporting that a female was overdosing on heroin.  When the EMT arrived they found Stephanie Bongiovi unresponsive.

When authorities arrive don the scene a small amount of heroin was found allowing the police to obtain a search warrant  for Dunham Hall, the dorm at which Stephanie Bongiovi was staying.  The officers found heroin and traced it back to 21 year old Ian Grant, also a student at Hamilton College who is from the same hometown as Stephanie, Red Bank, New Jersey.

They also later arrested Bongiovi who is said to be recovering at an undisclosed hospital.

Bongiovi and Grant have racked up the drug charges:

  • Seventh degree criminal possession of a controlled substance
  • Fourth degree criminal possession of marijuana
  • Criminally using drug paraphernalia
  • Unlawful possession of marijuana

All of these are misdemeanors.

I’m sure this is not what Jon Bon Jovi and his wife Dorothea Hurley envisioned when they sent their little Stephanie off to Hamilton College.  Ironically Bon Jovi is scheduled to do a concerto to benefit Hamilton’s scholarships and art programs.  I wonder if he will still follow through with Time Square concert next month.

Heroin is serious business.  Personally I don’t do drugs. If I want a rush I just stand up when I’m not expecting it.”
