All about Todd and Julie’s case

Todd and Julie Chrisley have been found guilty of faking bank statements and of conspiring to defraud community banks for loans of over $30 million.

Legal expert Julie Rendelman explained the case to ET Online:

“What they basically did is they provided fraudulent documents to financial institutions in order to procure those loans. The way that the federal government was able to prove this case was not just based on those actual documents, it was based on emails, text messages between the Chrisleys along with one of the cooperators who came forward to tell the government what the Chrisleys had done.”

The couple’s accountant Peter Tarantino has also been convicted of tax evasion. After the guilty verdict, Julie’s attorney Steve Friedberg released a statement on behalf of the couple. It read:

“Julie and Todd are so grateful for the love and support shown by their family, friends and fans. They both remain strong in their faith and will continue the 'fight' until they are vindicated. They have their priorities in order and are currently concentrating on the welfare of their children and Todd's mother, Elizabeth Faye Chrisley.”

Meanwhile, they are set to be sentenced on October 6, 2022. For now, viewers can enjoy their show, Chrisley Knows Best, on USA Network.
