Teresa Giudice’s House Was Not Raided By Feds: ‘It Just Didn’t Happen,’ Confirms District Attorney


Following reports in the media yesterday, alleging in some detail that Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice had her family mansion raided by federal agents, with cash and Christmas presents being seized, the D.A.’s office has now confirmed that those rumors are wholly untrue.

According to reports by Rumorfix and Radar Online yesterday (December 18), the feds were “granted a court order to raid their home. They arrived unannounced and Teresa was surprised; however, she had no choice but to let them in.”

The report continues to cite a source, who told them, “The judge who sentenced her, Judge Esther Salas, signed the warrant allowing them to enter. While there, they found lots of real jewelry, which had a high monetary value. They were there for hours and during the raid she was not allowed to leave the kitchen whatsoever.”

But Matt Reilly, a spokesman for the U.S Attorney’s Office in the District of New Jersey, told the Huffington Post that his office has no record of any type of raid on the Giudice residence.

“We didn’t undertake any action like that. There seems to be a lot of specific detail in [the articles]. If there was going to be something like that, our office would be involved. It just didn’t happen,” he said.

Another media outlet, NJ.com, also reported on a statement from a Morris County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman, who confirmed that no deputies were involved in a raid at the Giudice’s home.

On top of that, reps for the Giudice’s told the Daily Mail, “There is no truth to this rumor. It is 100 percent fabricated.”

Nevertheless, by all accounts, this Christmas is going to be a challenging one for the Giudice family, as Teresa was sentenced to 15 months in prison, while Joe was sentenced to 41 months, both for bankruptcy fraud charges.
