Last Monday, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star, Jen Shah, 48, shocked everyone when she pleaded guilty to fraud charges in a telemarketing scheme that targeted the elderly. The Bravo star faces up to 30 years in prison for her crimes, however, Jen agreed not to appeal if she got between 11 to 14 years behind bars. Recent reports state that the reality star’s husband, Sharrieff Shah, 51, might also be on the hook for the $9 million in restitution payments.

Former L.A. Deputy District Attorney, Emily D. Baker, spoke on Jen’s case and what would happen to her if she is unable to pay the money. Ms. Shah had agreed to forfeit $6 million and pay restitution of $9 million. Emily explained that Jen’s property would be forfeited to the government to cover the $6.5 million. That is if what they had taken during the search warrant wasn’t enough to cover it. Baker explained that the authorities had the right to take money, property, and other valuables.

Emily added that if Jen is unable to clear the payment, the government can pursue any of her future income including her marital property. She explained that any property Sharrieff owns separately will not be pursued, but anything they share as a married couple can be taken by the government, which includes his income. “Most things are going to be considered marital property, so yes. This is their debt. It’s in her name, but he’s not going to be able to have marital property that’s not a potential to be attached for this restitution.”

As per Bakers exclusive with People, it wouldn’t matter if Sharrieff divorced Jen right now because he would still be liable “because this is now accumulated during the marriage.” Jen’s husband made a career for himself as a football coach and currently teaches at the University of Utah. They have been together since 1994. He and Jen share two sons, Sharrieff Shah Jr. and Omar. Jen’s lawyer spoke about her client’s guilty plea and said that Jen is a good woman who crossed the line.
