Former reality television stars Todd and Julie Chrisley are reportedly not doing so well in prison.
During the most recent episode of her podcast “Unlocked w/ Savannah Chrisley,” Savannah Chrisley and her brother Chase Chrisley had a conversation about the well-being of their parents since they began their prison sentences. Savannah mentioned that her brother had recently visited their father, and during the visit, he shared details about the chaotic situation prevailing at his correctional facility.
“It’s a nightmare,” Chase said. “Now they both have no air conditioning. They’re both in states where it gets to be 100+ degrees, and there’s no air conditioning.”
Additionally, Chase corrected his sister when she mentioned “rattlesnakes” casually slithering on the floor near their mother’s place of imprisonment, clarifying that it was actually a different type of poisonous snake. Savannah went on to claim that the correctional facilities where their parents are located have problems with asbestos, black mold, and lead-based paint. However, she seemed uncertain if the general public would show concern about these issues.
“I mean, Chase, it is prison so we’re not going to sit here and act like it should be the Four Seasons,” she said. “It’s prison, so people don’t have any sympathy for it.”
Last year, Todd and Julie were found guilty of conspiring to defraud banks by obtaining loans amounting to over $30 million. The stars of “Chrisley Knows Best,” along with their accountant, Peter Tarantino, were also convicted of multiple tax-related offenses. As a result of their convictions, Todd is currently serving a 12-year term at the Federal Prison Camp (FPC) in Pensacola, Florida, while Julie received a seven-year sentence and is now located at the Federal Medical Center (FMC) in Lexington, Kentucky.
