Jen Shah has been behind bars since January 2023. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star was set to spend six-and-a-half years there after pleading guilty for her role in a telemarketing fraud scheme that largely and despicably targeted the elderly.
However, Jen just got another break. She’s seemingly been a model prisoner during her stay at Bryan Federal Prison Camp in Texas, and her sentence was further reduced. This is at least the third time her release date has been pushed up from its original 2029 date. Shah-mazing news for her! For her victims – probably not so much.
Jen Shah’s sentence was reduced again by another month
According to federal prison records obtained by The U.S. Sun, Jen’s now set to be released from FPC Bryan on November 19, 2027. This is a month sooner than the previous time her release date was pushed up to December 19, 2027. There wasn’t an explanation for her most recent break, but her last one was due to good behavior.
Her original sentence was supposed to last until sometime in 2029. The first reduction had her freedom scheduled for August 30, 2028.
Jen has continued to be a model prisoner, according to her manager Chris Giovanni. She’s been teaching fitness classes to the likes of other convicts, like Theranos scammer Elizabeth Holmes.
Chris explained, “She created it in prison. It started off as something she was doing to improve her fitness.”
“As she went in, she lost a good amount of weight. She developed the Shah-mazing abs class. All the ladies started coming up to her on the yard and they would do workout segments.”
“Elizabeth [Holmes] attended with other inmates, and it’s become a thing in there. Jen Fonda, that’s her nickname in there.”
Last year, it was revealed that Jen had been helping other inmates as an ESL and GED tutor as part of her attempt to atone for her crimes. She shared, “I am grateful for the opportunity to earn a second chance. I know some people doubt my sincerity and commitment.”
She continued, “I can only control what I do daily and how I prepare for my life after federal prison.”
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
