Overview

• Todd and Julie Chrisley were convicted in November 2022 of conspiring to defraud community banks of over $30 million and multiple tax crimes
• A federal judge sentenced Todd to 12 years and Julie to seven years in prison, added 16 months of probation for each, and ordered $17.8 million in restitution
• Their daughter Savannah led a high-profile campaign—meeting White House officials, speaking at the Republican National Convention and enlisting advocate Alice Johnson—to secure clemency
• On May 28, President Trump signed full pardons that led to Todd’s release from a Pensacola minimum-security camp and Julie’s release from Lexington, Kentucky
• The case has fueled debate over alleged political bias in their prosecution and the use of presidential clemency for prominent supporters
