Summary

In this episode of TSFS, I break down the breaking news that Taylor Frankie Paul won’t face new domestic violence charges in Utah due to lack of evidence and statute of limitations issues, and I share my doubts that ABC will move forward with her Bachelorette season without some kind of public apology or therapy narrative. Then David Yontef from Behind The Velvet Rope joins as we react to a listener DM, chat about aging and career shifts, and get into RHOBH tea including Sutton being offended that Jennifer Tilly read Lisa Rinna’s book and broader opinions on the cast. We also discuss alleged shady Summer House editing and clarify reports about how the reunion will be filmed, touch on Kyle Richards’ lawsuit to evict Kim Richards from an Encino condo, and cover why Melissa Gorga still seems anxious about upsetting Teresa while promoting RHONJ.

0:00.0	Sarah,
0:04.1	and we're breaking news.
0:10.2	Taylor Frankie Paul,
0:11.7	our girl from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives
0:13.8	and who we thought was going to be on the Bachelorette this season
0:17.0	has been cleared of new domestic violence charges.
0:22.7	She will not be charged in the state of Utah.
0:29.4	I know many of you are celebrating. Many of you do not like Dakota. However, I will say that video was rough. That video that surfaced was rough. So I'm going to read you the latest. We are,
0:35.1	she is not going to face new domestic violence charges in the state of
0:38.8	Utah. Most likely she's probably going to be getting custody back of her son, but we'll see.
0:45.5	So will we see that season of the Bachelorette? I'll tell you my theory.
0:49.6	Prosecutors have declined to file charges in connection, of course, with allegations of domestic
0:53.8	violence and yadi yadi. I told you that. The Salt Lake County District's Attorney Office have declined to file charges in connection, of course, with allegations of domestic violence,
0:54.4	yaddy, yadi, I told you that. The Salt Lake County District's Attorney Office spoke out yesterday
0:59.1	and says it is not going to charge Paul because of lack of evidence. She was under investigation

1:10.5	said some of the misdemeanor offenses
1:12.1	happened more than two years ago and were barred by the statute of limitations. More recent
1:17.0	incidents not barred by the statute of limitations did not rise to the level of being considered
1:23.6	crimes and others lacked evidence. The remaining incidents lacked sufficient evidence
1:28.8	to support filing criminal charges where the state must be able to prove such allegations
