They were facing tax evasion charges, charged with wire fraud, bank fraud, tax evasion, and hiding income from the IRS. They can face upto 30 years in prison if found guilty.
With rumours flowing around the cancellation of the hit series Chrisley Knows Best, Todd released a lengthy Instagram statement talking about his faith and the future of the reality show. He wrote they are trusting and believing in God, if he has brought them here, He will take them through it. He pleaded the audience to not fall victim to false prophets, to stay steady in their path, grieve the lost ones, pray for who have wronged them, forgive them and ask God to move on. After this he addressed the cancellation of show concerns. Todd wrote, “We are getting back to work after this distraction and our show hasn’t been cancelled.” He also thanked fans for their support.
Todd’s attorneys Bruce H. Morris and Stephen Friedberg have released a statement saying- “The allegations contained in the indictment are based on complete falsehoods. The Chrisleys are innocent of all charges.” The attorneys concluded by saying if the case reaches a courtroom, Todd and Julie will be completely exonerated.
