“Unmasking the Deception: The Chilling True Story Behind Bravo’s ‘Dirty John’ Revealed!”
Additionally, Britton, who played Debra earned nominations for awards including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress- Miniseries or Television Film. The series has since been renewed for a second season, but it’ll have a completely new cast and plot.
Meehan Had A Secret Drug Addiction
John had a secret heroin addiction and in the retelling of Dirty John, Meehan steals prescription drugs from hospitals to fuel his addiction. The show skips over the fact that John was using highly-addictive opioids.
In an interview with Forbes, Debra Newell told the business magazine “When John and I were together, I didn’t ever see any signs of any heroin drug use. I only saw prescription drugs and since he’d just had back surgery, I thought they were for that.” After his death, she returned to her house in Las Vegas where she found a vial and a bottle of testosterone but no opioids of any kind.
Meehan’s Brother Died Of A Drug Overdose
The show doesn’t talk about his part of her life but Meehan has two sisters, Donna Meehan Stewart, and Karen Douvillier. She also had an older brother named Daniel. According to Dennis Luke, who was an investigator with the drug task force of the Warren County Sheriff’s Office in Ohio, he found emails showing that Meehan sent drugs to Daniel.
