Know About Jennifer Shah’s Husband Who Pleaded For His Wife’s Sake

Jennifer Shah, who was on Bravo’s “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” was given a six-and-a-half-year prison sentence for stealing money from thousands of elderly and vulnerable people through a long-running telemarketing scam.

The judge, Sidney Stein, gave a sentence of 10 years in prison and five years of supervision. Shah asked for a three-year sentence. The latest reality star whose phony fame and lavish lifestyle was exposed, asked for three years in prison.

She could have gotten up to 14 years for what she did. Shah’s lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, said in a statement on Friday that Shah “deeply regrets the mistakes she has made and is deeply sorry to the people she has hurt.”

“Jen believes in our justice system, knows that anyone who breaks the law will be punished, and agrees that this sentence is fair,” the statement said. “Jen will pay back what she owes to society, and when she is free again, she promises to pay back what she owes to the people she hurt because of her mistakes.”

Shah’s Husband Pleaded For Her In Front Of The Judge

Sharrieff Shah Sr., Jen Shah’s husband, asked the judge to be kind to his wife when she is sentenced for fraud on 6 January. The college football coach went on to say that the couple’s tense relationship caused her to “make disastrously bad business decisions and get close to bad people.” In fact, the former lawyer put most of the blame on himself. He said his constant traveling and being away from home made his wife make bad decisions.

Jen thanked her husband for being by her side after she was arrested and charged. During an Instagram Live appearance with Bravo, she said, “God literally sent an angel to me in the form of Coach Shah to deal with my crazy ass.”

Why Is Jen Shah Behind The Bars?

In July, she pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit wire fraud for running a telemarketing scam that scammed older people out of thousands of dollars. On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Sidney Stein gave her a sentence. The government wanted Shah to go to jail for 10 years, but Shah’s lawyers asked for only three.

Shah has shown off her wealth on “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” by throwing expensive parties and buying expensive clothes since the show started in 2020. The ride has been “Shah-mazing”.

After her arrest in March 2021, Shah said she was innocent and used the phrase “The only thing I’m guilty of is being Shah-mazing” as the tagline for Season 2. According to Page Six In papers about Shah’s sentence, the federal government used this line to say that she was making fun of the system.
