Jen Shah wants to keep 'Housewives' footage from entering fraud trial
Page Six reported that Jen, via her team, filed court documents asking a judge to exclude any footage of "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" from airing in the courtroom. "The defense opposes the use in evidence of any clips from the RHOSLC," her legal team said in a filing this week, adding that footage "would have to fall under one of the exceptions to the hearsay rule of evidence, as they are, by definition, out-of-court statements."Further, her team argued that the popular show is "highly edited and crafted through post-production" and snippets "do not have any of the indicia of reliability."In March 2021, Jen was arrested and charged with committing wire fraud and money laundering. Prosecutors alleged that she scammed hundreds of people, mostly the elderly, out of millions of dollars as part of a telemarketing scheme.
