An investigator in the bankruptcy trial of Tom Girardi and his estranged wife Erika Jayne says he wants to take into account 'inconsistent statements' the reality star has made on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The 50-year-old singer and her estranged husband Tom Girardi, 82, are both currently facing claims of allegedly embezzling settlement funds that were meant to help the families of plane crash victims.
Investigator Ronald Richards told UsWeekly on Friday: 'There's a lot of inconsistent statements and admissions made by the non-scripted actors that we're putting together to use in court.'
Asked whether the attorney has seen 'a lot of inconsistencies with the story' being told on RHOBH in regards to Erika and Tom's lawsuit and financial woes, Richards said: 'That's correct.'

Richards added that his team is 'going to take discovery from people that used to work for her.'
The attorney also added that Jayne, her former employees, and her costars could be called in for questioning, though it is unclear when.
'There's a lot of things we’re still trying to uncover,' he told the outlet. 'We are going to be deposing her (Erika) at some point, but I want to get all the documents first. What's important right now is following the money.'
This could make things tense for Erika, who has been very open on the show about the case, recently telling her housewives co-stars: 'I'd like to know where the money is.'
