Joe's incarceration is related to a recent car accident and DUI arrest , which was documented on the Bravo show. (Joe claimed that he wasn't intoxicated when he crashed his car — but drank some glasses of Scotch at a pal's house while he waited for the cops to arrive.)

In addition to his ten days in jail, he was also given a seven-month license suspension, a $300 fine and 12 hours of driver education classes.

Reps for Bravo had no comment. Teresa similarly had little to say on the matter — Tweeting instead about her daughter Audriana's recent first birthday party and various charity projects.
