Savannah Chrisley Appeals to Judge for Mother’s Release from Prison Due to $46M Fraud Case

Savannah and Grayson Chrisley have made a heartfelt appeal to a judge for the release of their mother, Julie Chrisley, as she faces resentencing after being convicted of financial crimes. The siblings, deeply affected by their family’s situation, wrote personal letters detailing the emotional toll of their mother’s imprisonment.

Julie Chrisley, along with her husband Todd, was sentenced for bank fraud and tax evasion, receiving seven years while Todd was handed a twelve-year sentence. After their appeals were rejected, the court set a date for Julie’s resentencing, prompting Savannah and Grayson to reach out to the judge as part of their desperate plea for leniency.

In her letter, Savannah, who is stepping into a maternal role for her younger siblings Grayson and Chloe, emphasized the pain of separation: “With every passing day, the trauma of this situation feels like an endless punishment.” She expressed the immense responsibility she now carries, stating, “I love my siblings deeply, but I know I can never fill the void left by their mother.”

Savannah recounted the strain of managing a household alone while simultaneously advocating for her parents. She poignantly described the milestones their mother has missed, from festive holidays to significant life moments, stating, “These are the times that define a family, and they have become memories for us without her.”

Grayson echoed his sister’s sentiments, revealing his deep feelings of loss and longing for his mother. He pleaded for compassion from the court, expressing that he needs his parents now more than ever. Savannah underscored the adverse effects of their mother’s incarceration on her siblings’ mental health, stating they experience anxiety and depression, exacerbated by the harsh realities of their situation.

Savannah confronted the conditions of Julie’s imprisonment, describing a harrowing transport experience. She detailed how Julie was subjected to unacceptable treatment during her transfers, stating, “She endured a grueling 13-hour journey without food or drink, solely to maintain some dignity in an undignified circumstance.”

Savannah’s letter concluded with a passionate request for compassion, longing for the moment she could once again embrace her mother. Despite their efforts, Julie was resentenced to the same seven-year term. The Chrisley siblings remain hopeful for a future where their family can be united once more.
