The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Jennifer Shah gets prison time for defrauding people in a telemarketing scam.
abc.net.au/news/real-housewives-jenifer-shah-prison-for-fraud/101834602US reality TV star Jennifer Shah, known for her role on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, has been sentenced to six-and-a-half-years in prison for defrauding thousands of people in a telemarketing scam over nearly a decade.
In a pre-sentence submission, prosecutors said she used profits from the fraud to live a life of luxury that included a nearly 10,000-square-foot mansion with eight fireplaces dubbed "Shah Ski Chalet".They said she also rented an apartment in Midtown Manhattan, leased a Porsche Panamera, bought hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of luxury goods and funded various cosmetic procedures while cheating the Internal Revenue Service of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
"I struggled to accept responsibility for the longest time because I deluded myself into believing … that I did nothing wrong," she said. She then 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, according to prosecutors.
