Please stop. Many women in traditional marriages (even modern marriages) have no idea where their husbands get their money. They just use that money. Many men especially tom hide this sh from their wives. Tom was always dismissive of her whenever she would speak so let's not pretend this was a warm, open man. He was a terrible husband and a terrible man. We are not going to blame women for the crimes of men. Blame the man.

If society could be less misogynistic maybe this wouldn't be happening. Blame Tom.
Master manipulator. She said so many horrible things about the victims, and this sit down is just another attempt to manipulate the public into thinking she cares. she is a complete fake.
I’d love to hear direct quotes she said about the victims that was so horrible. Let’s be putting the blame on these powerful men doing things their wives don’t know. How about him preying on young women and making them feel like they are safe when you are shady as hell!
After watching this documentary my mind hasn’t changed about Erika. She was honest on the show about not caring about the victims. She still doesn’t care. I also got the impression that she was resentful toward them. I don’t think she can ever see outside of herself.
Exactly. She said what she said, so I dunno why fans if hers are rushing to her defense 🤷🏻♂️ I don't agree with her attitude but at least she stands by her feelings
And she's working for it. You're gonna hate on her for working to earn money to support herself and legal bills she has to do a cheating lying former husband?
She saw the documentary but didn’t bother to remember their names or their stories and in her own words “knows nothing” about them. How and more importantly WHY does anyone defend this woman?
👏💯 exactly I don't get it! I don't like hr since all this especially her greedy MEMEME attitude,maybe she didn't know every piece of this,but she could've changed her flippint cold bich attitude
So you’re telling me in the 20+ years they’ve been together, she NEVER EVER overheard a single conversation of his about what he was doing that entire time or etc.?
@@meditationforgrowthexactly and he was traveling a lot. Had his own office. Had his own office in a big house. Spend a lot of time in his jet. She had her own careers..not conventional at all.
I believe that she didn't know the extent of the theft and deception. Her job was to look attractive on his arm, and I believe that was probably the extent of it.
men who do things like this don't share this crap with their wives. are you crazy? most women have no idea where their husbands make their money, esp a man like Tom who was always dismissive of her and shut her down in conversations. No way would he be open about his finances ffs. These men also have other accountants that they hide from their main accountants.
Hypothetically, even if she “didn’t know” she could be seen in a better light if she donated or had some compassion for the victims and she doesn’t. It’s very sad. I couldn’t live with myself if I found out my husband was stealing money from people that really needed it.
I don't think she's unaware of everything because she doesn't seem like an idiot to me. She was aware of everything. But at the same time acting like an idiot was a way for her to absolve herself of the crime
So you're telling me that you know everything that happens at your partner's work?Is this actually your opinion, or did you jump on the bandwagon of public opinion as well?
Right? Did you see this week of rhobh? She was sure trying to prove her smarts that day. Also wanting apologizes from the other women for a small positive win about her ring. Hopefully short term win on the ring.+ L
The entire interview with the victims was messed up. WTF. Most decent people would be absolutely crushed that the real victims were fighting for what they were owed. It’s all about her. I don’t believe she has any empathy at all. Those women treated her with such class when they were probably screaming inside. This was nothing but a photo op for Erika. I really feel for those women and hope they are ok ❤

@@leanndoolin4284 I’m going off of life imitating art. That’s the lifestyle she wants to portray through music and promote on real housewives. 🥴it’s Gonna be ok ma’am.
I knew someone who worked at Tom Girardi's law firm as a paralegal. Long before any scandals became public, this person shared that his law firm was shady. She wasn't able to put into words exactly why she felt that way, but it was a strong and persistent impression she often brought it up. Maybe his wife really had her head in the sand, but it seems like Girardi's overall shadiness was hard to miss.
Dressed like a librarian. Say she didn't know anything beforehand. Doesn't matter she knows now. None of the money she has is hers and I guarantee she is hiding cash and jewelry. Give up the 750,000 earrings. He's been doing this at least since the 90s. He sent her on tour in dive bars. She didn't make money off that. It cost millions to send her on those and pay for the whole production. 40,000 a month on glam. I wouldn't be able to sit at the table with her.
She is so callous and just despicable. Even if you don’t care about these women or people pretend that you do in front of them. She’s no better than him! Just disgusting!
Not true. If you have ever been in a lawsuit you would understand how horribly dirty the other side gets. Her defensiveness is in response to being ganged up on by the public, her friends, and the other legal team. It is horrible that it seems she has no sympathy for the victims, but she felt like she was fighting for her life. This youtube video is only showing the worst moments of her life. And of course, being a legal battle, there was not a lot she could say in her defense on the show. That being said I have no idea if she was guilty of knowing what her husband was doing or not, but you definitely cannot judge it by her degree of defensiveness.
Erika’s coping mechanism is to avoid and attack, I hope one day she will understand and truly feel how much harm has been done. I don’t think she is able to grasp the reality of the situation. She enjoyed the lifestyle and knew not to ask questions.
Let's face the REALITY here. The LAWYERS looking after their own interests is the REAL blame here!!! Just like Doctor's "police" themselves and rarely go against another. How did CA NOT catch him WAY before?!!! How did his firm not know......EVERY employee!!??
Thank you! This is the realest comment I have seen on here. Tom and his associates are the responsible parties and broke the law. California bar association also is to blame.
What she did to Psaila is bad enough. Having no contrition for the way she clearly profited from the victim's settlements is deplorable. They cancel celebrities for far less. This woman needs to evaporate from the limelight but narcissists refuse to go away. She is awful.
They couldn’t prove she knew, or where the money was coming from. That doesn’t make her innocent. Her lack of empathy is awful. If she really sorry she should have met with the victims without cameras and give some money back.
She seems like an awful person married to a wretched guy. Her arrogance towards the people hurt by her family’s misdeeds is astounding- selfish and totally oblivious. I don’t buy that she had no idea what her old man was up to, not for one minute.
She’s better than her husband, his partners and their families who has never had to answer to THEIR CLIENTS while abusing THEIR POWER. Erika Jayne protected herself when she was tossed on a highway of prosecution while the actual people involved faced zero consequences
I believe that they both knew. Her apathy meeting the victims is sickening, His swindle is beyond reprehensible. I hope, but doubt, that full justice will be given to the victims. This is so heartbreaking.
I doubt Erika knew he's not the kind of guy that would explain. I definitely blame the bar for not doing anything about all the complaints it could have been stopped before so many were hurt.
I don’t know why these people go on shows like this when they know they’re criminals. Every “Real Housewives” location has somebody going to prison, in prison or out on parole. Or at best, going into foreclosure. Why would you want cameras in your house if you know full well you’re involved in illegal activities?? They literally bought this on themselves, first by committing crime, and then by thinking they’re TV stars.
Disgusting & inexcusable that Erika didn't prep for meeting with the victims & know their names & how they were defrauded. She is a full blown narcissist. No empathy no heart. The only real thing she had said is that she doesn't give an F about anyone but herself. Someone should look into her assistant & see how much money she funneled to him prior to her filing for her fake divorce.
All the things acquired thru her marriage to Tom Giraradi - thru the misappropriation of the victims payouts should be let go of and put into a retribution fund. Refusal of this reveals her true character . Things acquired thru these victims can just be summed up as "blood money"....
Feel so bad for Marco Marco when Erica said she was defrauded by him. But it was proved he was right about Erica. She doesn’t care about him after all he did for her. She’s an evil person.
I have only made it to about halfway, but I can’t take it anymore. These poor people deserved their settlements. I truly hope Justice will prevail this time.
OK people...she is unable to connect and lacks empathy. Her brain is not wired that way. I find it sad. I find it sad people attack someone who doesn't have the ability to empathize or feel compassion. I feel terrible for the victims but you all are attacking the wrong person.
Erika looks very drawn and aged. Her stubbornness to accept any blame in this crime will be her downfall. She's in her 50's and still thinks she's going to be some kind of mega star. People will go see her in Vegas because she's notorious and sad.
She should have been held responsible for something it looks like she's still living the high life and she has no remorse for any of the victims she's disgusting
The absolute glee with which people’s pain were exploited in order to humiliate a socialite was despicable. This was turned into a Erika takedown while Tom and his associates got to hide in the shadows. Fraud on this level isn’t committed by one man only 🙄
Tom isn't in hiding. Its going to trial. Didn't you see the part where tom was found to be competent for trial? Erika got a free ride this whole time. She's still living a life 99% of us cannot even imagine. She knows it isn't her money
@@lorir5728 who cares about the money? Money comes and goes. The real questions is who did this benefit, what does this ripple out into? I guarantee you this isn't the only crime Tom committed and he isn't the only one doing this. I guarantee you he spent the money just as fast as he could get it, to feel better about his guilt.
Time to log off Erika lmfao! The least you could have done was research what these women went through, why they even filed suit, instead of, "yeah, remind me again who you are", or her famous "I only care about me", and "anyone can say anything when they file a civil suit". She's trash. F her. And F Tom. She ruled the roost in that house. She knew, at the very least.
@@lorir5728 Erika has other sources of income, all of Tom’s assets was seized so she’s making her own way. Tom is standing trial but what about his associates? If what they are accusing him of is true, there could possibly be even more people he swindled and none of that is of Erika’s making: I dont think you understand who and what Tom Girardi was and is and the amount of power and influence he wielded, he didn’t have to use Erika to do whatever it is he wanted to do
She is a monster. And unfortunately, she played her cards right. She turned out to be smarter than her husband. She just had to wait him out. She’ll face her judgement.
@@leanndoolin4284 Never once said I wouldn’t. Get your facts straight. And in case you didn’t know, Biblically, there is righteous judgement and disdain for evil.
I believe Tom didn't tell anything. I don't necessarily believe she should be held responsible for Tom's actions. I believe Tom set her up to be the scapegoat. I mean who's going after an old man who has dementia?

I believe she knew what was going on and didn't care. She married a rich old man for a reason. She wants the public to believe that she was oblivious to the corruption which is laughable especially after she says she does care about the victims.
You mean after she said she DOESN'T care about the victims and only cares about herself.
Please stop. Many women in traditional marriages (even modern marriages) have no idea where their husbands get their money. They just use that money. Many men especially tom hide this sh from their wives. Tom was always dismissive of her whenever she would speak so let's not pretend this was a warm, open man. He was a terrible husband and a terrible man. We are not going to blame women for the crimes of men. Blame the man.
@@babypicassoeisensteinyou can't use ignorance as a defense after saying you don't care. She doesn't care about the victims when everything is out now so I doubt she would have cared enough if she knew while spending Tom's money ... And I believe she knew
@@danibaie There's nothing wrong with women enjoying men's money. society needs to stop blaming women for enjoying money. there is nothing wrong with it. of course she didn't know, you want her to have known because you don't like her and you're looking for an excuse.most women do not know about where their husbands get their money from. tom, especially, is a con man and completely excluded erika even in conversation. there is no way he would have known.
she seems to care about the victims but she is taking the accusation personally because everyone is blaming her instead of Tom. If society could be less misogynistic maybe this wouldn't be happening. Blame Tom.
Master manipulator. She said so many horrible things about the victims, and this sit down is just another attempt to manipulate the public into thinking she cares. she is a complete fake.
I’d love to hear direct quotes she said about the victims that was so horrible. Let’s be putting the blame on these powerful men doing things their wives don’t know. How about him preying on young women and making them feel like they are safe when you are shady as hell!
After watching this documentary my mind hasn’t changed about Erika. She was honest on the show about not caring about the victims. She still doesn’t care. I also got the impression that she was resentful toward them. I don’t think she can ever see outside of herself.
Exactly. She said what she said, so I dunno why fans if hers are rushing to her defense 🤷🏻♂️ I don't agree with her attitude but at least she stands by her feelings
@@claylexander6171 good point
Fast forward to today. She’s still on the housewives, and still living better than most
And she's working for it. You're gonna hate on her for working to earn money to support herself and legal bills she has to do a cheating lying former husband?
yes but so is the New Jersey housewife Theresa Guidice. It pays to do crimes and people keep watching and making them rich.
No she shouldn’t be on the show! She’s horrible! There are other women more deserving that would do better on that show. She’s not a good person!
She sure is living better than most - rent-free in fact, in everyone's head.
That’s because her boss has no morals either.
She saw the documentary but didn’t bother to remember their names or their stories and in her own words “knows nothing” about them. How and more importantly WHY does anyone defend this woman?
👏💯 exactly I don't get it! I don't like hr since all this especially her greedy MEMEME attitude,maybe she didn't know every piece of this,but she could've changed her flippint cold bich attitude
Because its her husband who defrauded those women, not her! He's the monster and the court of law proved it was only him.
Glad he can stand trial. He has on slippers and boxy suit, seems like it's part of the incompetentcy plot.
Yep. HE did this.
So you’re telling me in the 20+ years they’ve been together, she NEVER EVER overheard a single conversation of his about what he was doing that entire time or etc.?
Sneaky people are very smart.
@@meditationforgrowthexactly and he was traveling a lot. Had his own office. Had his own office in a big house. Spend a lot of time in his jet. She had her own careers..not conventional at all.
Good one. She might be ignorant but definitely not STUPID. Married for 20 years she knew damn well where that money was coming from.
I believe that she didn't know the extent of the theft and deception. Her job was to look attractive on his arm, and I believe that was probably the extent of it.
men who do things like this don't share this crap with their wives. are you crazy? most women have no idea where their husbands make their money, esp a man like Tom who was always dismissive of her and shut her down in conversations. No way would he be open about his finances ffs. These men also have other accountants that they hide from their main accountants.
Erika looked so cold and her eyes dead and devoud of any empathy and sympathy for the victims.
Shark eyes.
Hypothetically, even if she “didn’t know” she could be seen in a better light if she donated or had some compassion for the victims and she doesn’t. It’s very sad. I couldn’t live with myself if I found out my husband was stealing money from people that really needed it.
I think she’s been taught by Tom that paying means you admit guilt
Yep, that’s it. Just show some sympathy and say I’m sorry for all of this. At the least!
Or she could've set up a GoFundMe for the victims or sold those earrings and donating the money.
@@RoyalMasterpieceshe needs those earrings because she doesn't have a retirement she didnt keep any of her RHOBH paychecks
@@RoyalMasterpiece the earrings were auctioned off long ago. Keep up!
She is a hustler, just like her husband.
She is a monster she only cares about herself
A $7.00 hustler.
Please ! She knew what her husband was doing ! She can't pretend to even care.🙄🙄
Glad you can be so sure about something you literally have no clue about. That takes a very high level of self confidence or arrogance.
Exactly, Tom's antics were known throughout certain circles
@alicia6353
Oh really! How do you know!!
How would she know what he was doing? She wasn’t in the legal profession.
@@nailartguy3363you’re replying to every negative comment about her lol you must be working for her
I don't think she's unaware of everything because she doesn't seem like an idiot to me. She was aware of everything. But at the same time acting like an idiot was a way for her to absolve herself of the crime
Looking away...Like mob boss wife
So you're telling me that you know everything that happens at your partner's work?Is this actually your opinion, or did you jump on the bandwagon of public opinion as well?
@@MATTIE1010101 my point is shes intelligent enough to not know. If shes a dumb idiot Id understand but shes not
Like in breaking bad when the wife plays dumb when being audited about the car wash
Right? Did you see this week of rhobh? She was sure trying to prove her smarts that day. Also wanting apologizes from the other women for a small positive win about her ring. Hopefully short term win on the ring.+
L
The entire interview with the victims was messed up. WTF. Most decent people would be absolutely crushed that the real victims were fighting for what they were owed. It’s all about her. I don’t believe she has any empathy at all.
Those women treated her with such class when they were probably screaming inside. This was nothing but a photo op for Erika. I really feel for those women and hope they are ok ❤
Thank you for your kind comments. It was a difficult meeting. But it was an event for my son who passed away so we also were all focused on that and raising money for the charity. We hope see efforts help shine a light on the evil of all of this.
@@kimberlyarchiehi Kim I'm so sorry for what you all went thru,& the loss of your son, you've had enough go on it's time that you get what's owed to you, God's blessings Cindy 🙏💖
She didn't even care to ask them their names? Wow
Um, have you wanted this? Have you seen all the unseen footage? Stop speaking about things you know nothing of.
This woman is such a narcissist, completely unrepentant. I don't watch any of these housewives shows. This just reaffirms my decision!
Ozempic out here changing whole faces lol
Right, lol & they think they look good.
The thinner she get. Makes her look old
I don't believe she is innocent and she should not get away with her part in this.
When did she work at the law Firm? As I understand it she never did.
@@ridingtheroad185 yes, and?
The court of law found her innocent. L👀k it up !
@@mlo9534he’s saying there is no actual evidence she had any part in it and you can’t just lock people up because you don’t like them.
Man…corruption, lies and greed have aged Erika significantly.
Tom deserves the same sympathy he gave to the victims
"I'm kind of a loss at what to say," probably because she's injected so much botox into her lips, she's unable to say anything.
She knew exactly what was going on she evil to the core
Her song “expensive to be me” should explain it all
A campy pop song? Are you going to start judging every performers whole life around the lyrics to a song? Good luck with that.
@@leanndoolin4284 I’m going off of life imitating art. That’s the lifestyle she wants to portray through music and promote on real housewives. 🥴it’s Gonna be ok ma’am.
She knew what was going on PERIOD
Proof?
Stealing from your clients is trailer trash behavior. How can anyone be so cruel and greedy. Its not like he didn't make a good salary before stealing
I knew someone who worked at Tom Girardi's law firm as a paralegal. Long before any scandals became public, this person shared that his law firm was shady. She wasn't able to put into words exactly why she felt that way, but it was a strong and persistent impression she often brought it up. Maybe his wife really had her head in the sand, but it seems like Girardi's overall shadiness was hard to miss.
And now she’s back out there performing in Vegas… should be more like a fundraiser for these people
Dressed like a librarian. Say she didn't know anything beforehand. Doesn't matter she knows now. None of the money she has is hers and I guarantee she is hiding cash and jewelry. Give up the 750,000 earrings. He's been doing this at least since the 90s. He sent her on tour in dive bars. She didn't make money off that. It cost millions to send her on those and pay for the whole production. 40,000 a month on glam. I wouldn't be able to sit at the table with her.
Plus she wasn't all glammed up and no glamorous hair do😮
Weirdest thing is she looks so much better today without the 40k glam monthly amount.
@@meditationforgrowth Do u watch the show? She still employs a make up and hair crew.
She is so callous and just despicable. Even if you don’t care about these women or people pretend that you do in front of them. She’s no better than him! Just disgusting!
Defensiveness usually implies a deep down self awareness of guilt.
Or complete incompetence
That's ridiculous.
Not true. If you have ever been in a lawsuit you would understand how horribly dirty the other side gets. Her defensiveness is in response to being ganged up on by the public, her friends, and the other legal team. It is horrible that it seems she has no sympathy for the victims, but she felt like she was fighting for her life. This youtube video is only showing the worst moments of her life. And of course, being a legal battle, there was not a lot she could say in her defense on the show.
That being said I have no idea if she was guilty of knowing what her husband was doing or not, but you definitely cannot judge it by her degree of defensiveness.
The CA Bar is equally responsible and liable!
You spent the money that belongs to his victims, you’re guilty too, simple as that
Her glam squad payment for ONE event would have meant the world to their victimS.
Tom taught her everything he knows about being a liar and thief. I've always believed she had some clue to what went on.
The judges and prosecutors over the years let him get away with illegality
Erika’s coping mechanism is to avoid and attack, I hope one day she will understand and truly feel how much harm has been done. I don’t think she is able to grasp the reality of the situation. She enjoyed the lifestyle and knew not to ask questions.
Sociopaths usually don't
Let's face the REALITY here. The LAWYERS looking after their own interests is the REAL blame here!!! Just like Doctor's "police" themselves and rarely go against another. How did CA NOT catch him WAY before?!!! How did his firm not know......EVERY employee!!??
Watch the doc. There is evidence pending that the State Bar was corrupted by bribes from Girardi
Thank you! This is the realest comment I have seen on here. Tom and his associates are the responsible parties and broke the law. California bar association also is to blame.
What she did to Psaila is bad enough. Having no contrition for the way she clearly profited from the victim's settlements is deplorable. They cancel celebrities for far less. This woman needs to evaporate from the limelight but narcissists refuse to go away. She is awful.
They couldn’t prove she knew, or where the money was coming from. That doesn’t make her innocent. Her lack of empathy is awful. If she really sorry she should have met with the victims without cameras and give some money back.
She seems like an awful person married to a wretched guy. Her arrogance towards the people hurt by her family’s misdeeds is astounding- selfish and totally oblivious. I don’t buy that she had no idea what her old man was up to, not for one minute.
Pride goes before a fall
The greed that has taken over and permeated our societies everywhere shows itself as all sorts of things.
People sell their souls for shoes and handbags.
The California Bar Association knew what was going on. They should be getting this scrutiny.
💯-Could not agree more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly!!
She’s a terrible person
She’s better than her husband, his partners and their families who has never had to answer to THEIR CLIENTS while abusing THEIR POWER. Erika Jayne protected herself when she was tossed on a highway of prosecution while the actual people involved faced zero consequences
How? She faced ppl he never would
Takes one to know one.
@@nailartguy3363
🤣😂👌🏻
She benefited from the money. She said her glam costed her 50k monthly.
Her husband and his firm represented them, she did not. Are you responsible for your husband's position? You have to think about the whole story.
She's guilty as sin.
I believe that they both knew. Her apathy meeting the victims is sickening, His swindle is beyond reprehensible. I hope, but doubt, that full justice will be given to the victims. This is so heartbreaking.
I doubt Erika knew he's not the kind of guy that would explain. I definitely blame the bar for not doing anything about all the complaints it could have been stopped before so many were hurt.
She knew it all. Period.
I don’t know why these people go on shows like this when they know they’re criminals. Every “Real Housewives” location has somebody going to prison, in prison or out on parole. Or at best, going into foreclosure. Why would you want cameras in your house if you know full well you’re involved in illegal activities?? They literally bought this on themselves, first by committing crime, and then by thinking they’re TV stars.
Narcissism, greed and fame
Erika….ITS NOT ABOUT YOU…..THERE ARE VICTIMS
She's a Victim toO!
B*llshit. And if she cared why didnt she give back the earrings bought with their money. She is a victim of nothing. Vile woman.@@illuminata8097
She’s enjoyed her life and her husband let it happen…she was in her own world and he in his own.
Disgusting & inexcusable that Erika didn't prep for meeting with the victims & know their names & how they were defrauded. She is a full blown narcissist. No empathy no heart. The only real thing she had said is that she doesn't give an F about anyone but herself.
Someone should look into her assistant & see how much money she funneled to him prior to her filing for her fake divorce.
If "Erica Jane" isn't a psychopath; *no one* is.
Her PR & lawyers told her to participate. Also why would he keep calling her? He must still remember her. 🤨
All the things acquired thru her marriage to Tom Giraradi - thru the misappropriation of the victims payouts should be let go of and put into a retribution fund. Refusal of this reveals her true character . Things acquired thru these victims can just be summed up as "blood money"....
Feel so bad for Marco Marco when Erica said she was defrauded by him. But it was proved he was right about Erica. She doesn’t care about him after all he did for her. She’s an evil person.
I have only made it to about halfway, but I can’t take it anymore. These poor people deserved their settlements. I truly hope Justice will prevail this time.
It's a little late to be charging someone who already lived their life off your money. He literally won.
OK people...she is unable to connect and lacks empathy. Her brain is not wired that way. I find it sad. I find it sad people attack someone who doesn't have the ability to empathize or feel compassion. I feel terrible for the victims but you all are attacking the wrong person.
This is insane!
How cruel for her to go to a meeting with the Victims and she professes to not know anything about the victims...UNFORGIVABLE.
Why’d she even met the victims. Doesn’t know their names or what happened to them%? She’s disgusting.
Erika looks very drawn and aged. Her stubbornness to accept any blame in this crime will be her downfall. She's in her 50's and still thinks she's going to be some kind of mega star. People will go see her in Vegas because she's notorious and sad.
Season 12 Episode 17 of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Erika: "I don't give a f about anybody else but me."
ruclips.net/video/d9-PYv7VUrE/видео.html
Things she has said tells me she doesn't care, except how it impacts her.
Grifters gonna grift.
She’s a disgustingly cold person. She hasn’t talked with them since last year in the summer🙄
Wow, just WOW.
She should have been held responsible for something it looks like she's still living the high life and she has no remorse for any of the victims she's disgusting
I don't think Erika knew what was going on, but she needed to humble herself sooner.
Erika doesn't work at the the lawyer's office and she's the only honest housewife in bhhw
Face does not move when she talks
Let me guess she asks like she knew nothing about what he was doing
The absolute glee with which people’s pain were exploited in order to humiliate a socialite was despicable. This was turned into a Erika takedown while Tom and his associates got to hide in the shadows. Fraud on this level isn’t committed by one man only 🙄
Tom isn't in hiding. Its going to trial. Didn't you see the part where tom was found to be competent for trial? Erika got a free ride this whole time. She's still living a life 99% of us cannot even imagine. She knows it isn't her money
@@lorir5728 who cares about the money? Money comes and goes. The real questions is who did this benefit, what does this ripple out into? I guarantee you this isn't the only crime Tom committed and he isn't the only one doing this. I guarantee you he spent the money just as fast as he could get it, to feel better about his guilt.
Time to log off Erika lmfao! The least you could have done was research what these women went through, why they even filed suit, instead of, "yeah, remind me again who you are", or her famous "I only care about me", and "anyone can say anything when they file a civil suit". She's trash. F her. And F Tom. She ruled the roost in that house. She knew, at the very least.
@@iceman18211Also giving Erica a huge monthly spending allowance😮
@@lorir5728 Erika has other sources of income, all of Tom’s assets was seized so she’s making her own way. Tom is standing trial but what about his associates? If what they are accusing him of is true, there could possibly be even more people he swindled and none of that is of Erika’s making: I dont think you understand who and what Tom Girardi was and is and the amount of power and influence he wielded, he didn’t have to use Erika to do whatever it is he wanted to do
The fact that garcelle has to make this about her is ridiculous that's what I'm saying you listen to the public opinion
She is a monster. And unfortunately, she played her cards right. She turned out to be smarter than her husband. She just had to wait him out.
She’ll face her judgement.
And so will you. For judging her.
@@leanndoolin4284 Never once said I wouldn’t. Get your facts straight. And in case you didn’t know, Biblically, there is righteous judgement and disdain for evil.
I believe Tom didn't tell anything. I don't necessarily believe she should be held responsible for Tom's actions. I believe Tom set her up to be the scapegoat. I mean who's going after an old man who has dementia?
OMG. That music video. 😅🤣😂🤢🤮
Even talking to the victims she still makes it sound like she was “ poor me “
Accountability: Hold him accountable.
