“Chrisley Knows Best” – Family Attorney Sets Record Straight
Jay Surgent, the Chrisley family attorney told RadarOnline.com that reports claiming the Chrisley’s marriage is teetering is “outrageous” and “off-base”. Surgent adds that the two have never been closer, even with the news that Julie could be released earlier than Todd.
While Todd is currently serving a 12-year sentence, Julie is serving a seven-year sentence that will be shortened.
The prison terms were handed down in 2022, and their attorney notes that the couple are still very devoted to each other, as they’ve been in the past, and will continue to be in the future. He adds that Todd wants Julie to be released earlier to “help with the family”.
“Chrisley Knows Best” – Star Julie Chrisley’s Prison Term Will Be Resentenced
A panel of 11th U.S. Circuit Court judges ruled on Julie’s appeal last Friday, June 21. They decided that Ms. Chrisley should be resentenced as no evidence held her accountable for losses incurred before 2007.
Unfortunately, the appeal for both Todd and the family’s accountant, Peter Tarantino, was dismissed.
The couple’s daughter, Savannah Chrisley, commented on her mom’s resentencing, during her Unlocked podcast, stating, “I am beyond relieved that the court recognized the mistakes made in my mother’s sentencing. We’ve been fighting so hard for this, and it gives us hope for a fairer outcome moving forward. It’s been an incredibly tough time for all of us, but this decision gives us a glimmer of hope. We will continue to fight for justice and the truth.”
