It’s time to say goodbye to Jen Shah for the subsequent six-and-a-half years — however she isn’t going to jail with out saying one last item first.
Because the Actual Housewives of Salt Lake Metropolis star heads to a jail someplace within the “Texas area” on Friday, her legal professional Priya Chaudhry informed Folks in an announcement that Jen goes to take advantage of out of her sentence and “make amends” for her position within the telemarketing scheme:

“No impediment will deter Jen from benefiting from her time in jail and she or he’s decided to make restitution to these whose lives she has impacted. Her path forward will likely be crammed with challenges, however with the unwavering love and assist of her household and buddies, Jen is ready to face these challenges head-on and emerge from this expertise a greater one that makes a constructive impression on others.”
Hmm. We’ll must see if Jen’s time in jail transforms her right into a “higher individual.” Right now, many individuals is perhaps somewhat skeptical of that primarily based on her earlier actions throughout her authorized troubles.
For many who didn’t sustain with the case, Jen and her assistant, Stuart Smith, had been arrested in March 2021 after being accused of orchestrating an enormous telemarketing rip-off that took thousands and thousands from aged victims. Sufferer impression statements obtained by Folks detailed the Bravolebrity’s horrible crimes. One man revealed he “wasted about $40,000 attempting to do good for my household” whereas another person stated they shelled out $100,000. Because of Jen and Stuart’s rip-off, two victims stated they grew to become homeless. So, so terrible.
Regardless of the accusations towards them, the pair pleaded not responsible in April 2021. Stuart finally pleaded responsible months later in November 2021. Nonetheless, Jen insisted she was harmless for months — and even blamed her co-star, Meredith Marks, for having one thing to do with the “bulls**t expenses” towards her at one level in season two of RHOSLC:
“I swear to God, you probably have something to do with the bulls**t expenses towards me, Meredith, you’re f**king disgusting.”
However in a surprising twist, Shah lastly reversed her plea in July 2022 and confessed to offering faux companies to her aged victims. Decide Sidney Stein later sentenced her to 78 months in jail and gave her 5 years of supervision as soon as her sentence is full so as “to be sure you don’t find yourself committing one other crime.” So we’ll all hope for the perfect together with her rehabilitation — however we’re glad she’ll be supervised throughout that point.
