“There is that possibility of my husband and I being separated, but there’s a difference between my husband and I being separated for a period of time and having to say goodbye forever,” she said.  However, at the end of the day, Julie Chrisley says that she knows things could be worse.

Will Todd And Julie Chrisley Be Able To Talk In Prison?

Right now, the exact locations where Todd and Julie Chrisley will be serving their prison sentences remain unknown. Judge Eleanor Ross made recommendations for each of them, taking some of the family’s needs into consideration.

The judge suggest that Todd be placed in Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Pensacola, Florida, and Julie Chrisley be placed in FCI Tallahassee, Florida. Ultimately, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) will have the final say in where the couple winds up.

The BOP also gave In Touch Weekly the specifics on whether or not the couple will be able to remain in contact during their prison sentences. According to the BOP, “An inmate may be permitted to correspond with an inmate confined in any other penal or correctional institution if the other inmate is either a member of the immediate family, or is a party or witness in a legal action in which both inmates are involved.”

  1. Great lock the crooks up. Maybe both can actually stop acting like the crooks they are and really read the bible. Savannah knows where Todd has hidden a ton of cash. Lock her up too. Greed and a queer. So very nice justice served. Strip away everything and return money they stole. My family and I are so happy these two are off the street.

  2. I think that Todd and Julie should get their trial appealed they deserve to get one like everyone else.Everyone in life makes mistakes. I don’t hold any kind of judgement against either one of them , but they should have to pay back so much each year until the money is paid back. Why is people holding the children responsible for their parents transgression? It’s not their fault.
