Todd and Julie Chrisley conviction update: What does this mean?

According to the papers obtained by People Magazine, the government did not object to the sentencing being delayed. In fact, the government agreed the couple and their legal team had a good reason for pushing the sentencing back.

It was back in June that the couple was found guilty of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States, and tax fraud. Julie Chrisley was also found guilty of wire fraud. Both Todd and Julie Chrisley continue to deny they have done anything wrong. At this time, fans are pretty divided on the issue. Many fans believe Todd and Julie’s claims that they were set up. There are also many fans, however, that believe they did the crime and think they can buy their way out of the consequences. The Chrisley Knows Best family and their children have told fans they are leaning heavily on their faith as they believe justice were prevail in the end.

The couple hopes for a new trial

In August, the couple’s legal team filed new paperwork. A joint motion for a new trial. The motion claimed the couple did not receive a fair trial because of someone who lied on the stand. The government presented and failed to correct false testimony from IRS Revenue Officer Betty Carter, who lied about the Chrisleys owing taxes for years when she knew no taxes were due.

The motion continued to explain: “This testimony had the effect of falsely painting the Chrisleys as untruthful, likely to commit other forms of fraud, and evading the tax payments alleged in the indictment.”

During the three-week trial, Assistant US Attorney Annalise Peters claimed Todd and Julie Chrisley used false documents to exaggerate how much money they had to obtain a large loan. Annalise Peters alleged the couple proceeded to burn through the money via their lavish lifestyle.

  1. I personally have a hard time believing this couple is guilty of any charges brought forth. They appear to be a close knit loving family that have morals and stand on their faith. I guess it will be interesting how this plays our. I just don’t believe this any of these charges and most likely were set up.

      1. Do you personally know them? Do you know their financial business? NO, you do not. A blind man can see you’re nasty. Running your big fat opinionated mouth about something you know absolutely NOTHING about. Idk them. I don’t watch their show every day. I know who they are. I will give them the benefit of the doubt. And hope they come through this trying time. And the truth will shine. I don’t believe they would deliberately defraud the government & risk their freedom. That’s something traitor tRump does.

    1. It is called acting for a reason! Growing Up Chrisley now shows the family home in Nashville to be Savannahs?
      So where are they at for home arrest? The residuals keep coming in.

    2. So the IRS had a hat and names in it and just happen to pull the chrisley name out of it and started to investigate please the Government don’t come after you unless they have a problem and it’s not the first time he got away with bankruptcy claim but he’s such as greedy bragging ass he put his own self in jail

  2. I do not believe Todd and Julie Chrisley are guilty of anything!!!
    Todd would never do such a stupid thing like this!!! Clearly they were set up!!! Release these people and concentrate on some real criminals because it is not them!!!

  3. I truly believe Todd and Julie were set up. Hopefully the truth will come out and they can continue with their life. This is horrible what they’re going through.

  4. Why do you guys think they were set up? That doesn’t make sense. If they are as smart as they claim than why didn’t they realize that something was wrong? They filed taxes didn’t they read the form before they signed? They applied for bank loans didn’t they ask questions before receiving the funds. You guys say they are not guilty of this crime, I feel they are guilty for being so dumb and not realizing what was going on. They have to take some of the responsibility for this, otherwise others will think they can get by with it too. Look at Martha Stewart, she spent a year in prison for tax fraud. Why are they different than her? Double standards!!!!!

    1. Yes! As a matter of fact, I love their show but let’s face it….What really made them “The Chrisleys”?? Their lavish lifestyle.

      1. Why can’t they just let Todd serve his time first so Julie can raise her 2 other kids, what about Nanny Faye ? I believe I remember another TV couple that they allowed one to go first and then the other. Just so sad. Change your mind !!!!!

  5. lone of the IRS Investigators lied about his credentials. he e lied on his resume’ to get the job. With that being said, they should have been awarded s new trial anyway. And any evidence obtained by that investigator cannot be used in new trial. That investigator was on a witch hunt and used any means necessary including lying under oath by a govt official
