President Trump has been on a pardoning spree regardless of how critical the public may have been of some of his picks. Bravo’s Next Gen: NYC star Gia Giudice now hopes she can secure one final pardon — for her father, Joe Giudice.
Giudice’s family gained fame through their various family dramas playing out on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. But they once got into legal trouble that was so consequential, it even eclipsed the Real Housewives fanbase. Joe and Teresa were indicted on federal fraud charges in 2013. Teresa was sentenced to 11 months, while Joe was sentenced to 41 months. But Joe isn’t a U.S. citizen, so immediately after his sentence was completed, he was deported and now lives and works in the Bahamas.
