ginger90 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 From TMZ: Teresa and Joe Giudice scored a HUGE payday before shipping off to prison ... a deal so sweet the restitution they owe to the government has almost been whittled down to nothing. The two "Real Housewives of New Jersey" stars snagged $325,000 for a two-on-one interview with Bravo head honcho Andy Cohen ... sources close to the deal tell us. We're told the network offered $275K for Teresa alone, but kicked in another $50K to have her less interesting husband onboard. The Giudices owe around $400K in restitution -- which means all of the money they made will go directly towards paying off their debt ... but days after the sentencing they can now see the light at the end of the financial tunnel.

HumblePi October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 I wonder if anyone can set me straight about Joe's drivers license. Does he currently have a valid license to drive a car, or not? An article going back to 2012 said that Joe Giudice was facing State charges after allegedly obtaining a New Jersey driver’s license by impersonating his brother. At the time, Joe's license was suspended because of a driving-under-the-influence episode. State records show his license has been suspended 47 times since he first became a New Jersey driver in 1987. He has a long history of driver’s license suspensions and was cited by police in his hometown of Montville, N.J., for careless driving in a school zone. So what's up with this? If he drives drunk, texts while driving endangering the lives of children in a school zone, get's a drivers license under his brother's name and if he's still driving then something is very wrong with the Motor Vehicle Department in New Jersey. In 2010, a man in Texas got life in prison for his 9th DUI. What's wrong with these two pictures? Does anyone know if he's still allowed to drive?

I find it an awful lot of money to pay someone you already have a contractual relationship with-especially one that you entered into a contract with knowing this was coming down the pike. Yesterday TMZ was claiming that someone was four hours late to the Reunion and later Andy tweeted it wasn't so everyone was there on time. I hope it is the case because it sounds like these people are out of money but something tells me we will still see them living in the mansion and still driving a Mercedes come the switcheroo next spring. For a very long time it was rumored Nene was paid $1 million for her appearances on RHOA. I would think after a rather lackluster season of Nene but runaway ratings for the series executives would realize there never is a real reason to pay big bucks for a star. Joe got his license back after he completed the DUI stuff. Apparently, being charged with getting another license has no effect on the return of your previously suspended license. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11882-trials-and-tribulations-of-juicy-and-tre/page/39/#findComment-442470

Padma October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 (edited) Someone on this thread posted a picture of the family with their four beautiful daughters (I really have nothing against the girls) taking a vacation in the Dominican Republic in 2013. First, how did they get there if they did not have their passports, second, did they go there to hide money, and third, how the hell can they afford to take a lavish vacation when they are under so much legal and financial scrutiny? I think their repertoire includes getting approved for lots of credit cards with big limits--charge everything their heart desires from designer bags to family vacations--then, when interest payments get too big, declare bankruptcy and default on everything (passing it on to the rest of us). Personally, I don't think Teresa was the trusting little woman misled by her big bad husband. I think they're both stupid (though imo she's the "brains" and also the "drive" behind their life of crime) and both crooked. Teresa's lucky, imo, to only get 15 months. They are repeat offenders and have shown no regret or remorse..

They certainly do what most think of as stupid things but at the same time they got away with a lot of stuff for a long time.

Caroline called Tre a sociopath when they had the argument in Napa - I think she was right. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM IV-TR) is another widely used tool for the diagnosis and it defines sociopath traits as: A) Pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others occurring since age 15 years, as indicated by three or more of the following: Failure to conform to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors as indicated by repeatedly performing acts that are grounds for arrest Deception, as indicated by repeatedly lying, use of aliases, or conning others for personal profit or pleasure Impulsiveness or failure to plan ahead Irritability and aggressiveness, as indicated by repeated physical fights or assaults Reckless disregard for safety of self or others Consistent irresponsibility, as indicated by repeated failure to sustain consistent work behavior or honor financial obligations Lack of remorse as indicated by being indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another Here is an article written by a former United States Assistant Attorney who use to go up against the judge when she was a public defender.

I think that the STILL feel like they did nothing wrong. Joe's citizenship, or lack thereof, makes me think that he really thought maybe I don't have to pay taxes because I am not a citizen, as stupid as that sounds. I do think that Joe has a "rainy day fund" tucked away for when he goes on his permanent "vacation". The article about his probable deportation was fascinating. It was great to get a professional perspective on all of this speculation. When Joe is deported, I wonder if Teresa would be allowed to immigrate to Italy since she is a convicted felon. I have the WWHL special set to record tonight, it will be interesting to see if either of them have really thought that far ahead. I doubt it, I mean they never thought ahead to the possiblity of getting caught and going to jail. It makes me wonder how long they could have gone on with the fraud?

"I don't think I told you this, but I got a call from her counselor today..." I would have been down at the school October 1st.

LotusFlower October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 Teresa is still not taking responsibility. http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5939976 On WWH L Cohen asked if Teresa has been "in denial." "Well, [it's] time for me to wake up, like, I do need to read things before I sign them," she said. "I do need to understand things before I sign them ... I'm a trustworthy person and sometimes I take, you know, what other people say and I just believe them, and I trust them. And I can't do that anymore. I gotta make sure I fully understand something or fully read it or find a contract lawyer that can help me. Because I don't read contracts every day." Yes, because it was all those tricky contracts she signed that got her in trouble. Shut up, Teresa. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11882-trials-and-tribulations-of-juicy-and-tre/page/39/#findComment-443006
JerseyGirl October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 In re-watching the first season, there's a scene where Teresa visits Joe at his Stucco business. It was a small office located in a rundown building at the end of a rundown block. Nothing about the business indicated that Joe could own a multi-million dollar home. It all looked very modest. I don't know why I didn't get the disconnect between his small business and their flashy lifestyle at the time. They had me and a lot of people fooled I guess. I remember thinking the same thing about the hunting lodge, it was a tiny house.

diorella78 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 (edited) Gia looks like Topanga (Boy Meets World, lol) in the photos linked above (the still shot from the video, in the turquoise top). I just noticed, I believe Teresa was wearing Tom Ford sunglasses to court. Jeez Tre. Don't go out of your way to hide any flash, between those and the Mercedes.

FlyingEgret October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 TMZ claims the home of the “Housewives” offered $275,000 for Teresa and $50,000 for Joe. As part of their sentencing, they each owe $414,588 in restitution. But the network has told Page Six that the report is completely inaccurate. http://pagesix.com/2014/10/06/did-bravo-pay-325k-to-interview-the-jail-bound-giudices/ Maybe both stories are true: Bravo paid $325,000 but the check was made payable to the Court 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11882-trials-and-tribulations-of-juicy-and-tre/page/39/#findComment-443081
LotusFlower October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 I hope this is the truth but you never know with Andy/Bravo. They may have paid her but do not want anyone, public or other NJ cast members, to know they paid her. I agree with this. It's also why I've always disagreed with folks saying Bravo (or any network) will give Teresa a spin-off. Or even continue filming her and/or Joe from this date forward. There's too much anger towards these two out there, so it's too risky a venture.

Bronzedog October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 I'm not sure being deported would be that big of a deal for Joe. He gets deported, Teresa moves to Italy.

crgirl412 October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 Joe and Teresa are not bright people. Yes, they are criminals and were "successful" at scamming for a good while but they are not bright because Teresa really didn't understand her plea deal or what was supposed to be brought to the court. She blames her lawyers. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11882-trials-and-tribulations-of-juicy-and-tre/page/39/#findComment-443260
becauseIsaidso October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 I knew it! The bitch is still claiming she 'didn't understand' what the guilty plea meant! And of course it's entirely the fault of the people she depended on who didn't explain things and didn't fight for her. WHAT a piece of work. I knew it was FAR to much to expect even a modicum of honesty from either of them, especially her, but watching her sit there and lie, deflect and deny, deny, deny. Worthless bitch. 17 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11882-trials-and-tribulations-of-juicy-and-tre/page/39/#findComment-443262
