After being indicted on federal charges in 2019 for bank fraud, tax evasion and other charges, Todd and Julie Chrisley finally got their day in court last month. But the trial didn’t go exactly as planned for the two, as the jury found them guilty in all respects. Following the shock verdict, a source explained how the family should handle everything.
The process itself was dramatic enough in itself. Not only was the explosive allegation of a gay romance involving Todd Chrisley by his former business partner exposed, but the same partner (who also pleaded guilty to the touted crimes) claimed the Chrisleys needed to nearly six figures each month to follow. with your expensive lifestyle. However, according to one source us weeklyNor did Chrisley predict the verdict they got, saying:
The whole family is shocked by the verdict. All future planning in Todd and Julie’s life is nearly on hold until they learn of the sentencing in the fall. This is horrible news and they didn’t expect to be found guilty. His whole life changed in that moment.
Their sentencing is scheduled for October, but if the Chrisleys’ appeals are unsuccessful, they face up to 30 years in prison for their crimes. This poses a major problem for the care of the two youngest children still residing in the home: a 16-year-old son and a 9-year-old granddaughter. Family members should take care of the children if the judge does not allow Todd and Julie Chrisley to stagger their sentences at that time.
The reality TV couple’s eldest children obviously took a big step after the guilty verdict. The source said Savannah, 24, and Chase, 26, are at their parents’ disposal right now. Apparently this includes running errands for them while they are under house arrest until sentenced. Chase Chrisley was seen driving home grocery shopping earlier this week, according to the daily mail.
Todd Chrisley’s eldest daughter from a previous marriage, Lindsie, is also offering her support these days. Last week he broke his public silence on the matter via social media, confirming that he took a week off specifically to be there for his family after the verdict. He had spoken at the trial and begged for his father’s good character.
But when the prosecution peppered her with questions about how she herself contacted the FBI about her father (for allegedly blackmailing her with a sex tape of him), the 32-year-old said she apparently took such a stance on the bench. witnesses that caused an outburst of jury members. Even the judge didn’t take her answers too seriously, but the source said her efforts on her behalf “meant a lot” to Todd.
However, questions continue about the status of the family reality series. Chrisley knows bestand older children raise Chrissley, the two received the green light from USA Network for another season before the trial. The network continues to move forward with airing the second half of season 9 this month, but season 10 is reportedly on the air. According to Chrisley’s insider, not everyone knows how to do this:
They don’t know what this means for the future of Chrisley Knows Best and all their other ongoing projects. Nobody knows what will happen or what to do at this point.
They noted that the fact that Todd and Julie Chrisley are homebound “puts a big gap” between them and that they can film normally outside their Atlanta home. Of course the older boys and Nanny Faye are also unrestricted, allowing them to carry out normal TV chores, but there is also the problem that they probably won’t be able to talk much about the current circumstances, so as not to affect the call. . to deal. .
We will see how it turns out in the months to come. For now, it looks like the Chrisleys are doing what they do best: show a united front. Tune in to the first of the rest of Chrisley knows bestthe ninth season of June 23 on USA Network as part of the 2022 television schedule.
