Joe Giudice To Plead Not Guilty To Fraud

Joe Giudice has a date with a Passaic County, NJ judge Monday morning, and Radar Online can exclusively reveal that the Real Housewives of New Jersey star intends to plead "not guilty" to the fraud charges that have been leveled against him.

Teresa Giudice's controversial husband has been charged with Forgery and Wrongfully Using the Identifying Information of Another in an attempt to obtain a driver's license in his brother's name.

Officials claim he presented his brother's birth certificate and marriage license, and signed his brother's name to the application. Joe's own license is suspended as a result of a DUI conviction.

Joe Giudice Arrested For Fraudulent ID

Real Housewives of New Jersey househusband Giuseppe “Joe” Giudice is in trouble yet again. Adding to a list of brushes with the law that includes a DWI arrest, forgery, concealing assets, and a bar brawl in the Dominican Republic, Joe was arrested Friday for creating a fake driver’s license! The bust took place at his Towaco, New Jersey home and was conducted by the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Financial Crimes Unit, assisted by Montville police.

Teresa Giudice’s husband now faces charges of forgery and “wrongfully using the identifying information of another” for allegedly using his brother’s information to create a new driver’s license at the New Jersey Department of Motor Vehicles. As you might have guessed, his previously mentioned DWI arrest resulted in a suspended license so this must have been Big Joe’s creative solution.

According to the Baltimore Sun Joe faces up to ten years in prison if convicted.
