  • The prison in Pensacola, Florida, where Todd Chrisley is serving a prison sentence, was listed by Forbes as the second most comfortable prison in the US.
  • According to Chrisley, star Julie Chrisley has been back at FMC Lexington in Kentucky since October 17, 2024. She was “out of BOP custody” for weeks due to her grudge.
  • “Chrisley Knows Best” followed the family around their lavish lifestyle in Atlanta and Nashville. The couple billed themselves as millionaire real estate magnates.

Disgraced reality TV star Julie Chrisley is back in custody, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons website.

According to Chrisley, star Julie Chrisley has officially returned to the Federal Medical Center in Lexington, Kentucky, as of Thursday, October 17, 2024. She was “out of BOP custody” for weeks due to her sentencing hearing in the tax evasion and bank fraud case that sent her and her husband, “Chrisley Knows Best” star Todd Chrisley, to prison.

As of January 2023, Julie Chrisley has been an inmate at FMC Lexington. For a few weeks, dating back to at least September 22 (days before her sentencing hearing in Georgia), the jail site where inmates are monitored had Julie Chrisley listed as “not in BOP custody” instead of FMC Lexington’s location.

At the time, Julie Chrisley was in the custody of the US Marshals Service.

Here’s what we know.

Julie Chrisley sentenced to 84 months and $4.7 million in restitution for tax evasion and bank fraud

Last month, a federal judge ordered Julie Chrisley to begin serving her seven-year prison sentence there for tax evasion and bank fraud.

The Chrisleys’ 51-year-old matriarch – who rose to fame on the USA Network hit show ‘Chrisley Knows Best’ – appeared in federal court in Atlanta for a sentencing hearing on September 25, three months after the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals found that the lower court miscalculated Chrisley’s prison sentence, citing a lack of evidence of her full involvement in the bank fraud scheme for which she and her husband Todd Chrisley were convicted.

Before the criminal case hearing, a records check on September 22 showed Julie Chrisley was not at FMC Lexington. The “not in BOP custody” status changed on Oct. 17, according to a Bureau of Prisons search of the reality TV star. However, the BOP site routinely lists a release date of April 22, 2028. The BOP site is an inmate registration locator and does not explain what “not in BOP custody” means. The site does note that a pretrial detainee may have been removed from custody by the U.S. Marshals Service “and subsequently released by the court without further notice to the BOP.”

Todd and Julie Chrisley’s daughter, Savannah Chrisley, who attended the criminal case hearing in Atlanta, mentioned her mother in a September 25 WSB-TV story: “She’s doing well. I think the transportation process is a process that no one knows, and probably the most inhumane process, especially for women. There is no reason why a woman should be carried with more than 75 men and only one of the four should be women. There’s just no reason why this should happen,” Savannah Chrisley told Channel 2 Action News. “I spoke to her last night. I can’t imagine what that process is like for her. It’s tough…”

According to news reports, the couple’s son, Chase Chrisley, and the family’s attorney, Alex Little, also attended the hearing in Atlanta.

What happened to Julie and Todd Chrisley? Why are Todd and Julie Chrisley in jail?

In June 2022, Todd and Julie Chrisley were found guilty of tax evasion and defrauding community banks of more than $30 million in fraudulent loans.

In January 2023, the Chrisleys traded their luxurious lifestyle for prison. While Julie Chrisley is serving time at FMC Lexington, 56-year-old Todd Chrisley is serving time at FPC Pensacola, which the site describes as a “minimum security federal prison camp.” The couple were sentenced to seven and twelve years respectively.

An October 17 check on the Federal Bureau of Prisons website shows that Todd Chrisley will be released on June 26, 2032, more than two years earlier than his original 12-year sentence.

Why was Julie Chrisley given a sentencing hearing? Judge sentenced ‘Chrisley Knows Best’ star to 84 months

After 18 months, Julie Chrisley’s prison sentence was vacated when federal judges ruled there was insufficient evidence to support her case, according to a June 25, 2024 story in USA TODAY.

In June 2024, judges on the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the judge in Julie Chrisley’s 2022 trial miscalculated her sentence and found no evidence showing she was fully involved in the bank fraud scheme for which she was convicted, according to documents obtained by USA TODAY.

The appeals court upheld the convictions of Chrisley, her husband Todd Chrisley and their accountant Peter Tarantino, but ruled that the original judge had incorrectly calculated Julie Chrisley’s sentence. She was held responsible for the entire fraud scheme, which began in 2006.

Julie Chrisley’s sentencing hearing took place in a lower district court in downtown Atlanta on September 25, 2024.

According to a court filing obtained by USA TODAY, U.S. District Judge Eleanor L. Ross upheld her 2022 ruling and provided “justification for the sentence imposed” during the 50-minute hearing on September 25. Chrisley was sentenced to 84 months of confinement. five years of supervised release and more than $4.7 million — the total amount prosecutors say she illegally obtained — in restitution.

According to The Associated Press, an attorney for the Chrisleys had requested a reduced sentence for Julie Chrisley. Meanwhile, U.S. attorneys argued that Julie Chrisley was a “core element” of the fraud scheme.

The judge reportedly explained that her 2022 ruling was already a reduced sentence for Chrisley’s crimes and less than what prosecutors had requested for the former reality star.

According to Ross’ amended forfeiture order filed on September 25, which was reviewed by USA TODAY, Todd Chrisley was found to have “received a total of $17,270,741.57 in proceeds as a result of the commission of the crime of conviction” and was ordered to forfeit that amount. the government.
