zoeysmom January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 So who is the new attorney? http://www.nj.com/entertainment/tv/index.ssf/2015/01/teresa_giudice_surrendered_at_3_am_she_was_ready.html#incart_m-rpt-1 Link to comment
TheFinalRose January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 The night after that she posted she was having trouble sleeping. Had a lot of stuff on her mind. :-( You forgot to add that Gia posted a sad face emoji with a handgun emoji pointing right at it. Not disturbing, at all. I remember the judge saying something to the effect of "you finally get it" but I think it is only now starting to sink in to that skull of hers what's happening. Nah, I don't think she gets it because I don't think she understands 1) her responsibility to tell the truth to a judge or on any legal/financial paperwork because as a society we all have to agree to operate under the same rules for the common good; 2) the fact that when she and Joe took out loans based on income that they didn't have, that she and Joe were stealing 3) when she took clothes and shoes and makeup from Nordstrom's, signed the little slip of paper, and then never paid for it, that she stole those items from the store; 4) when she took granite and landscaping and fertility services and never paid she stole from those people too. If she got it, she would be embarrassed about the fact that she just plead guilty to being a common thief, and not do a photo call in front of a catholic church in Newark New Jersey (what a faker) on her last day before being sent to the clinker (photo on Daily Mail website). According to the NJ Star Ledger Theresa left her home at midnight and reported to Danbury at 3:00 am accompanied by her attorney. Good, because you know one of those smart cookies in that jail is going to explain to Teresa why she's in there, and about two months from now, when she realizes that the women in jail are her peers, she will want to impress them by "getting" why she's there. Because her dense, "I am a victim" act is going to be ridiculed. Two or three tough women who actually lived in skeevy houses telling Teresa "You can't sign for stuff that you don't have sweetie" over and over again may eventually get through to her. The embarrassment of not knowing how the system works, when her peers in the jail do, may do the trick. Link to comment
merylinkid January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 I can't believe she went voluntarily. Maybe she is not in as deep a denial as I thought. Or she truly believes it is only for 2 weeks so what the heck, get in, get out, go back to grifting. Link to comment

archer1267 January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 Tre may have "spared" her younger two daughters with the "Mommy's doing research" nonsense, but ostensibly her daughters are going to visit her, right? She doesn't think it's going to be traumatic for them, that they might actually think Mommy voluntarily CHOSE to be away from them in a Hellish place? That they're not going to sob and carry on when they see her? How often can they visit anyway? I know what Teresa's said about not believing in therapy but her daughters are going to need it, and I hope she has the self-awareness to see that. Juicy is going to be sporadic at best, and the stream of relatives is going to be confusing. 3 Link to comment

Good luck getting any money from Teresa and Joe. That's hilarious. And in the pictures of Tre being taken away, notice how Teresa's very tinted window is closed, yet his is wide open, even though it's 3 a.m. with temps in the teens? He's not going to waste any time getting his mug noticed. Surprised he's not scheduled a press conference. Perhaps he's taking out his fee in trade. He gets to negotiate with InTouch and Life&Style for the money they are going to pay for the tasty tidbits that Tre relays to him from prison. After all, his site says he's "A master behind the scenes negotiator and a pit bull trial attorney all in one." His website also mentions that he handles deportation proceedings. The Giudices are going to keep him busy. 4 Link to comment

Since she owes IRS fines, court fines and money to creditors … any prison-related income would go to them. One thing I'm shocked about is that prisoners can wear religious medals.

Leroux January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 You must be full of thoughts, Little Guy! Somewhere in that twisted mind of yours, I hope that a few of them will be for four little girls who need a daddy and a mommy but will have to do without one. I really hope you'll do your best for them by putting them ahead of all the other thoughts. Sadly, regardless of what I hope, you'll do as YOU wish, Little Man. You'll think of Joe first. Teresa will be alright. She'll handle this. But, for you, Joe, Hell is just beginning! I am sorry but I just had to comment on this one. Joe didn't do this alone, Teresa was right by his side every step of the way, he might have brough the fake documents for her to sign but she didn't have to, she didn 't have to go in front of a loan officer and swear that she had make thousands of dollars a year when she knew darn well she wasn't working, she didn't have to spend money like there was no tomorrow, she didn't have to sign the bankrrupcy papers in their desire to stiff their creditors. Teresa can maybe play dumb and claim that she didn't knowq what she was signing but after the bankupcy filing and denial all she had to do was to be honest , show her desire to cooperate with the judicial system by merely declaring her assets but she CHOSE not to do it, she stubornly decided to play dumb until the very end. Joe is guilty but so is Teresa, neither of them thought about the welfare of their children, not for one second did THEY thought about the consequences of their illegal actions , today is Teresa's turn and in a year it will be Joe's turn, my sympathy is reserved for their kids, they have selfish parents who do not have any moral compass and who will probably will never learned their lesson the same way that they have never accepted any responsibility. Teresa is not innocent, she is guilty and that is why she is in jail today. 23 Link to comment
TaxNerd January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 She told the two youngest daughters "Mommy is going to jail to do research about jail for a book I'm going to write". Duh, even when I was 4 years old I wouldn't have bought that story. Oh well, after all the lies she and Juicy have told over the past 10 years or so, one more lie isn't going to matter much. I would have bought it at four, then be even more upset because Mommy chose to leave me for a year. One day the girls will know, and feel lied to. It doesn't make her sentance any shorter, why not use it as a lesson in consequences? She could still paint herself as a victim, at least to her own kids. I wonder if the stories being fed to the tabloids are from Mellisa's camp as they sell what they can to save up for the girls. Not to add to a college funds, but to offset expenses. Link to comment

I think though this is where Teresa going is really going to come in handy for the girls, Joe will avoid press, Teresa would be having a special the day Joe went in if he was going first. After jail, Teresa may (May) be a more independent person and "Housewife" Teresa and Out-Of-Jail Teresa going at it alone doesn't exactly have the same appeal. Link to comment

The earliest she can get out is next January, as the most time a federal prisoner can get shaved off their sentence for good behavior is 15% (so 15% off of a 15 month sentence is 12 months, 3 weeks, if my math is correct!)

You're a crook." I'm under no illusions that Joe is the only one to blame in this fiasco. But, no matter how deeply my feelings against Teresa are, I'm disgusted by Joe even more. This recent post was my little attempt to write him a letter and vent. Call it therapy because I felt a lot better after writing it! lol I completely agree with what you wrote.

hoosier80 January 6, 2015 Share January 6, 2015 Color me shocked that she actually turned herself in early this a.m. I was sure it'd be a media circus. I would think that it may finally be sinking in tonight for Teresa that she's really, truly in prison. As nice as a prison can be, it's still a prison. She can't go out, she can't read blogs or tweets from her devoted (delusional) fans, she can't see her family, she can't do her web series or work on any of her business ventures, she's stuck wearing a uniform, and she can't keep tabs on Joe. For someone who was used to getting things her way, this has got to be a huge adjustment for her. I would be fine if I had some books to read and music, but limited internet access would be so hard for me (I'm addicted to surfing). Lying to the younger girls was a bad move. They're sure to hear it from other kids or elsewhere. I doubt Teresa or Joe got any counselling for the girls. I had never read All About TRH. I read some of the posts and holy cow. Teresa didn't do a thing wrong, and anyone who speaks one word otherwise is a hater. I wonder what Teresa would have to do in order for them to lose their idol worship. 3 Link to comment
archer1267 January 6, 2015 Share January 6, 2015 I admit, most of what I know of prison life comes from OITNB (and I know that only a small chunk of that is true to Piper Kernan's memoir). From what I've read, it seems like Teresa's been given some courtesies that other inmates don't have, like being allowed to report in at a time of her choosing, and being able to have visitors right away on her first weekend. (From OITNB, I thought visitors had to send notice that they wished to visit, and be approved.) Maybe someone with better knowledge can answer as to whether these are niceties that apply to everyone - or if Teresa's getting special treatment. That said, I think she's in for a huge adjustment. She didn't even want to take a dump in a nice RV camper. Can you imagine her taking a dump in a dirty bathroom that's used by everyone? 3 Link to comment
