Reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley have begun serving their prison sentences for bank fraud and tax evasion. The Chrisley Knows Best stars’ son, Chase Chrisley, shared a cryptic message on social media after his parents reported to prison.
‘Chrisley Knows Best’ stars Todd and Julie Chrisley reported to prison for their 19 years total sentence
On Tuesday, Jan. 17, Todd and Julie Chrisley reported to their respective prisons in Florida and Kentucky to begin serving their sentences. The reality star couple was convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion last year.
Todd was sentenced to 12 years in prison while Julie received a seven-year sentence, for a total of 19 years served between the two. Additionally, they will each pay restitution and do three years of supervised release once they finish their prison time.
Todd is serving his 12-year sentence at the minimum security Federal Prison Camp Pensacola in Florida, while his wife will spend her seven years at Federal Medical Center Lexington in Kentucky.
“Over the course of a decade, the defendants defrauded banks out of tens of millions of dollars while evading payment of their federal income taxes,” US Attorney Ryan K. Buchanan told E! News in November 2022. “Their lengthy sentences reflect the magnitude of their criminal scheme and should serve as a warning to others tempted to exploit our nation’s community banking system for unlawful personal gain.”

On Jan. 17, the day Todd and Julie Chrisley went to prison, their son Chase Chrisley delivered a cryptic message on social media.
The 25-year-old reshared a post to his Instagram Stories, which automatically disappear after 24 hours. The original post was from the account @pray and showed a photo of a church with a lit Christmas tree outside.
“God is with us,” the post read. “Matthew 1:23.” Chase shared the bible verse just hours after his parents reported to their respective prisons to begin their sentences.

On Oct. 21, 2022, Chase shared an Instagram post announcing he and his girlfriend of nearly three years, Emmy Medders, had gotten engaged.

I love you more than life itself and can’t wait to live forever with you! To you my love! Thank you for taking me FOREVER!!”
