Real Housewives of Salt Lake City producers responded to a subpoena they were hit with related to Jen Shah’s criminal case, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Shah checked into a Texas prison last month to start her 6.5-year sentence for wire fraud. As part of her sentence, Shah will not only serve time behind bars but agreed to forfeit $6.5 million and make restitution of $6.64 million to the victims of her telemarking scheme.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, the government fired off a legal letter to Shed Media, which produces the reality show.
Shed told the court that they had around $34,500 owed to Shah, however, that amount dropped to $20k after taxes and other costs were deducted.
“Ms. Shah is a good woman who crossed a line. She accepts full responsibility for her actions and deeply apologizes to all who have been harmed. Ms. Shah is also sorry for disappointing her husband, children, family, friends, and supporters. Jen pled guilty because she wants to pay her debt to society and put this ordeal behind her and her family,” Shah’s attorney said.
Shah told the court, “I am sorry. My actions have hurt innocent people. I want to apologize by saying, I am doing all I can to earn the funds to pay restitution … You and the world know me as Jen Shah, but reality TV has nothing to do with reality, even my tagline, Shah-mazing — they wrote it. I want to speak about who I am.”
