Feds Request RHOSLC's Jen Shah Get 10 YEARS In Prison For Fraud Scheme

Jen Shah might be spending a whole decade behind bars for her telemarketing fraud… As you know, the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star shockingly pled guilty in July to committing “wire fraud” and knowingly offering fake services to people “over the age of 55.” Last we heard, Jen potentially faced up to 14 years behind bars and could be forced to shell out up to $9.5 million in restitution in her January 2023 sentencing.

But 14 years is a maximum, how long is she really looking at? We’re talking months, right? Well, sort of. The US government is saying they want her in jail for 120 months.

In court documents obtained by People on Friday, the government explained their reasoning for requesting Jen get a full 10 years, saying the Bravolebrity “took a series of increasingly extravagant steps to conceal her criminal conduct from the authorities” and “engaged in a years-long, comprehensive effort to hide her continued role in the scheme”: Decade of victimizing, decade of prison?

Oof. The documents also argued the reality TV star is “the most culpable person charged in this case,” meaning she should get the biggest sentence.

They also say her behavior after her arrest should warrant a longer sentence, including when she “on a public offensive against the charges and tried to profit off the charges by selling ‘Justice for Jen’ merchandise”.
