The Situation has been submitting sentencing materials to the court over the last week. Sorrentino’s court hearing is set for October 5, 2018 at 11:30am in Newark, New Jersey.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Sorrentino, 36, is set to marry fiancée Lauren Pesce in early November. The soon-to-be newlyweds celebrated their bridal shower over the weekend. “Our Big Italian Wedding Shower,” Sorrentino captioned a photo from the party. Sorrentino’s Jersey Shore co-stars Angelina Pivarnick, Jenni “JWoww” Farley, Vinny Guadagnino and Nicole Polizzi were all in attendance.
Sorrentino has also spent the last week turning to God. He posted a quote that read, “The OTHER Serenity Prayer. God, grant me the serenity to stop beating myself for not doing things perfectly, the courage to forgive myself because I’m working on doing better, and the wisdom to know that you already love me just the way I am.”
Sorrentino is also focusing on his sobriety. He posted on Wednesday, October 3, “Big daddy Sitch is celebrating 34 months clean & sober.”
In addition to prison time, Sorrentino could also pay up to $250,000 in fines. Yesterday, Sorrentino promoted $29 teeth-whitening products to bring in another paycheck!
The Federal Grand Jury indicted Mike and his brother Marc for failing to pay taxes on $8.9 million of income in September 2014. They were also accused of filing false tax returns with the IRS in relation to Mike’s businesses. The Situation was hit with more charges of tax evasion and structuring funds to evade currency-transaction reports in April 2017. Sorrentino pled guilty to one count of tax evasion in January and faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison.
