Real Housewives' stars Teresa and Joe Giudice face sentencing, could be imprisoned

The married stars of the "Real Housewives of New Jersey" are due for a dose of unscripted reality.


Teresa and Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice are scheduled to be sentenced Thursday on conspiracy and bankruptcy fraud charges in federal court in Newark.
The couple had pleaded guilty in March, admitting that they hid assets from bankruptcy creditors and submitted phony loan applications to get some $5 million in mortgages and construction loans.


Under federal sentencing guidelines, Joe Giudice faces a potential sentence of 37 to 46 months and Teresa Giudice could get 21 to 27 months, though the judge could deviate up or down from those ranges. Lawyers for Teresa Giudice, 42, remain hopeful that she may be spared a prison sentence and instead receive probation, noting the need to care for the couple's four young daughters.


Joe Giudice, who is an Italian citizen, could be deported upon completion of a prison term. His attorney has said that Giudice came to the U.S. as an infant and wasn't aware that he wasn't an American citizen.


Both Giudices pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and three types of bankruptcy fraud. Joe Giudice, 43, also pleaded guilty to failing to file a tax return for 2004, though he acknowledged he didn't file taxes on income of approximately $1 million between 2004 and 2008.

Teresa Giudice is set to learn her fate for a federal fraud conviction, facing a judge on Thursday to receive her sentence.
Teresa and Joe arrived in federal court on Thursday at 9 a.m., with Teresa wearing a black pant suit and her hair down.
Under federal guidelines, Joe’s recommended sentence was 37 to 46 months while Teresa’s was 27 months. Under their plea for three counts of bankruptcy fraud, the couple was also required to pay $200,000 to the government at sentencing.
During sentencing, the judge admonished the Giudices for lying about their assets.

Bad thing about serving federal is you do the whole time you're sentenced too.

I was thinking the bare minimum was 90% of the sentence. Either way, it's still obviously a big difference from state crimes where you might do well below 50% of your sentence.

Are they going to tape them in prison for the show?

Agree. I guarantee she was fueling that fire just as much if not more than him. She was for sure spending that money.

15 fucking months for Teresa?? What a f'ing joke! Like the poster said earlier she probably told her stupid hubby he was worthless P.O.S. if he couldn't cheat out more millions. That wax figured looking cvnt should've gotten the book thrown at her.
