Donald Trump said that he plans to pardon Todd and Julie Chrisley, the reality show stars who were sentenced in 2022 after fraud and tax evasion convictions.
“Your parents are going to be free and clean, and I am hoping we can do it by tomorrow,” Trump said in an Oval Office call with Savannah Chrisley, their daughter.
“I don’t know them but give them my regards,” Trump said.
Savannah Chrisley spoke at the Republican National Convention about her parents’ incarceration, claiming that they were “persecuted” by the justice system “due to our public profile and conservative beliefs.”
The Chrisleys were convicted of conspiring to defraud community banks in the Atlanta area as a way to obtain more than $36 million in personal loans. According to prosecutors, they spent the money on luxury cars, designer clothes, real estate and travel. Prosecutors said that they failed to file or pay taxes for the years 2013, 2014, 2015 or 2016. Todd Chrisley was sentenced to 12 years and Julie Chrisley to seven.
