Career
Pelosi met Generosa while seeking work as an electrician. Generosa, who was involved in a bitter divorce from Ammon, hired him to supervise the renovation of her townhouse, and they soon began an affair. Pelosi, who was also married with three children, stayed at Ammon"s East Hampton home with Generosa and her two adopted children, and drove Ammon"s Porsche Carrera.
As Ammon hadn"t updated his will to reflect his marital situation, Generosa inherited the bulk of his $97 million estate after he was found murdered.
He was then charged with stealing $43,000 of electricity from the Long Island Power Authority. Before she died in 2003, Generosa cut Pelosi out of her will.
He later challenged the will and a postnuptial agreement which entitled him to $2 million for legal fees. He was arrested for Ammon"s murder on March 24, 2004.
Prosecutors theorized that Pelosi killed Ammon to ensure his new-found lifestyle.
His former girlfriend testified that he enjoyed killing Ammon. His father testified that Daniel had asked him how to get rid of incriminating evidence. Convicted in December 2004, Pelosi maintains his innocence.
With no charges pending against Zolnowski, she was able to marry Pelosi, and they wed before he began his prison sentence.
Pelosi is incarcerated in the Great Meadow Correctional Facility and will be eligible for parole in August 2031. Pelosi was played by Shawn Christian in the 2005 television movie Murder in the Hamptons.
Pelosi was featured on Dateline National Broadcasting Company in the episode titled "Mystery of the Murdered Millionaire" in 2008. In 2012, he was featured on a 20/20 episode titled "Revenge for Real: Murder in the Hamptons.".
