Vice President Joe Biden's niece in police custody in Tribeca:
A niece of Vice President Joe Biden, Caroline Biden, 26, was taken into police custody Tuesday morning in Manhattan after tussling with cops sent to break up a fight with her roommate over rent money, police told the Daily News. Biden was hospitalized after apparently falling ill at the 1st Precinct station house.
Friends say Caroline Biden is a “hot mess” with a history of booze and pill addiction — and she blames it all on the tremendous pressure she faces being the vice president’s niece.
“She would complain about it all the time,” a confidant, socialite Paul Johnson Calderon, said without a hint of sarcasm.
“She’s surrounded by a lot of people who use her because of who she is. Guys would want to date her because of who her uncle is.”
Cops were called to Caroline’s luxury rental apartment in Tribeca Tuesday morning when the 26-year-old allegedly went on a violent rampage, screaming and pounding on the doors in a fight with her roommate over unpaid rent. Caroline was arrested for taking a swing at a female cop.
The Georgetown University grad resisted going into a holding cell at a precinct station house and was transported to Beth Israel Hospital in a rolling chair — bizarrely with a towel covering her head.
“The pressure of being Joe Biden’s niece made her totally unravel,” he said. “It’s a desire for attention, a cry for help. She’s a very complicated girl who has a lot of feelings and a lot of issues.”
Caroline’s father, James Biden Sr., is the financier brother of the vice president. Family members have now grown so sick of her erratic behavior they have cut her off financially — sending her off the deep end, Calderon said.
“Her family has turned their back on her. She’s been abandoned by the family because they think that she’s nuts.”
Calderon, speaking from a sober-living facility, said he ended their friendship because he felt that he couldn’t associate with her while dealing with his own alcohol addiction.
