Leonetti is 5 feet, 3 inches tall, weighs 140 pounds and has brown eyes and brown hair. 

On Nov. 10, 2012, a Washington Township police officer stopped a vehicle on the Black Horse Pike in pursuit of a wanted person, since the vehicle was registered to a man with several outstanding warrants. The driver was arrested for providing false information, and the passenger, Leonetti, was arrested on an outstanding Camden County warrant. During a search of her belongings at police headquarters, 20 pills and three half-pills of Alprazolam, an anti-anxiety drug, were found, authorities said.
