The RHOSLC Costar Who Says She Knew About Jen Shah's Fraud Scheme

As reported by Us Weekly, Monica Garcia revealed on “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” that Jen Shah had offered to include her in her fraud scheme as a way to earn some extra cash. However, Garcia was alarmed by Shah’s revelations from the start, and because she was friends with someone in the Secret Service, she brought it up with him. During that conversation, Garcia learned that the authorities had already been on to Shah for some time. Nevertheless, she became a witness in Shah’s fraud trial (though as she pointed out on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” the trial never ended up taking place).

As for her relationship with Shah, since speaking to the authorities, Garcia explained to Cohen that she’d been required to cut communication because of her witness role — not that she cared if that meant the Shah squad was mad about it. In response to a question from fellow “WWHL” guest Heather McMahon, Garcia shared that she wasn’t bothered if anyone was upset, or thought she was a snitch. “Everyone calls me a rat, and whatever, but … squeak, squeak,” she joked. 

Part of the reason why she wasn’t especially concerned is that, on top of reporting it being the moral response to what she’d learned, she was also one of many people to have come forward with what they knew. “I didn’t start this case,” she maintained.
