A judge sentenced a member of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” to more than six years in prison on Friday for defrauding thousands of people nationwide in a telemarketing scam.
NEW YORK — A judge sentenced a member of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” to 6 1/2 years in prison on Friday for defrauding thousands of people nationwide in a telemarketing scam, many of them vulnerable or older.
During the hearing, defense lawyer Priya Chaudhry said her client has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent months.A prosecutor disputed the turnaround, saying he didn’t believe she showed any remorse at all, even at her plea. The government said she also seemed to mock the charges against her by claiming that the “only thing I’m guilty of is being Shah-mazing” and then she profited from it by marketing “Justice for Jen” merchandise after her arrest as she directed others to lie while trying to conceal her conduct from investigators.
They wrote that the fraud was “a mistake that has not only ruined her own life, but has broken her heart as she has watched the damage that her actions have caused.”
