Overview
- A Carroll County grand jury indicted Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie, on multiple counts tied to an April 2024 burglary report, including insurance fraud, conspiracy and making a false statement to police.
- Both were arrested in Westminster, Maryland, on October 9 and released the next day after posting $50,000 bond each, according to officials and court records.
- Charging documents describe claims of roughly $450,000 in personal property loss and note a Travelers Insurance payout of about $25,000 in April 2024.
- A search of the Osefo home reportedly recovered at least 15 items previously listed as stolen, and investigators say more than $20,000 in claimed items had been returned for refunds before the report.
- Industry fallout continues as Bravo delayed the planned launch of Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition without Osefo’s episode, Andy Cohen expressed sympathy on-air, and legal experts say Eddie could face bar discipline if convicted.
