Wendy and Eddie Osefo BLAST Prosecutors for ‘Misleading the Public’ – Claiming Police NEVER Properly Investigated Their Burglary!
Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie Osefofighting back against prosecutors as their legal cases become more serious.
On Nov. 20, the couple released a joint statement through their lawyers, calling out what they say are “false stories” and accusing the state of inappropriate behavior. “Police failed to properly investigate the first burglary despite clear signs of a burglary, showing clear bias against Osefo family,” their legal team wrote, adding that investigators were silent for “over 18 months despite full cooperation.” They insisted the couple “never used an alias on any financial application,” and claimed the names referenced in the court filings were only used for “package delivery” to protect their privacy. The statement concluded, “Due process is paramount…misleading the public with a false narrative has only added to the damage.”
The prosecutors painted a completely different picture in their own documents. They claim Wendy and Eddie checked “approximately 40 credit and/or debit cards,” some linked to business accounts, and says the couple used the alias “Pam Oliver” and “Eddie Hennessy” specifically “to mask one’s identity”.
The investigators also claim Wendy wrongly refused to use PayPal, Venmo, or Cash App buying jewelry — a detail they say is consistent with what they describe as “a pattern of excessive spending.” According to prosecutors, the couple’s total debt is central to their theory: “Insurance fraud is a financial crime, and the amount of debt that Osefos is highly relevant to their motives,” they wrote.
Eddie’s Lawyer, Joseph Murthapushed back hard on the state’s request for additional financial records, calling the subpoenas “overbroad” and questioning why prosecutors are “still looking for something they haven’t figured out after 18 months of investigation.”
Joseph also claimed that police never contacted the couple “from the time of the burglary until they were charged with the crime.” A judge is expected to take up the lawsuit dispute at a Dec. 2 hearing.
Meanwhile, investigators have already obtained a significant amount of digital and financial information. Google served a search-and-seizure warrant for several Gmail accounts linked to the couple – including one not linked to either of their names. Meta was ordered to release information from Wendy’s Instagram accounts, @thedrwendyshow and @wendyosefoafter authorities noticed she posted a photo of a diamond anniversary band she had listed as stolen. Additional warrants targeted Wendy’s Apple ID, a TextNow pghone numbers and home security records from Call and ADT.
Prosecutors also obtained financial records from Ally Bank, American Express, Capital One, and luxury retailers such as Van Cleef, Scissors, Louis Vuitton, and Ascot Diamonds.
The investigation stems from a burglary Wendy and Eddie reported at their Finksburg, Maryland, home on April 7, 2024. The couple claimed they returned from a family trip to Jamaica to find their bedroom ransacked and nearly $450,000 in jewelry and designer handbags missing. But detectives flagged several inconsistencies early on. According to court documents, the home’s ADT The system detected no movement inside during its journey, and the Ring cameras – which the couple monitored remotely – did not catch any suspicious activity.
Investigators also questioned the alleged entry point: a bathroom window above a toilet. While Osefos said the suspect went in there, deputies noted that the restroom had no debris — although officers themselves tracked eaves inside after stepping in the same area.
