Legal team, on the docket this week we’re revisiting one of our favorite cases…because she just can’t stop saying that she did nothing wrong. Conspiracy to obtain mortgage loans through fraud and misrepresentations, bankruptcy fraud through concealment of assets and false declarations, and failure to file income taxes…of course, we are talking about Teresa Giudice, former cast member of Real Housewives of New Jersey and current cast member of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. This episode is the first part of a series we’re starting in conjunction with the RHUGT Roaring 20th. Bankruptcy, loan allegations, indictments, guilty plea sentencing, prison, Joe’s deportation…we’ve covered it all before. This will not be as in-depth as our previous episodes on Teresa, but we’ll be laying out the facts as we respond to what she’s been saying to the press (and on RHUGT), and reminding you of how it all went down back in 2014. We will not let her rewrite history and spin this false narrative that she was “made an example.” Previous episodes on Teresa linked below!
