OduNews.com reported that she pleaded to two counts of wire fraud and one count of aggravated identity theft. Shah pleaded guilty to wire fraud in front of a judge in Manhattan.
“Jen Shah sworn in to plead guilty on the first count of her criminal indictment in connection with telemarketing fraud scheme that prosecutors said preyed on the elderly,” Courthouse News reporter Josh Russell tweeted.
The US Attorney dropped count two of the wire fraud conspiracy in connection with telemarketing after their discovery that the Bravolebrity pled guilty to count one.
Jen Shah has had her sentence reduced from 50 years to 30 years. She now faces a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison and five years supervised release following her trial scheduled to begin on July 18.
