Savannah Chrisley refuses to surrender hope that her parents Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley will come home in the next year. And the Chrisley Knows Best alum just offered an update to her followers about her imprisoned parents.
Find out why Savannah feels energized to keep fighting for Todd’s and Julie’s release. And keep reading to learn how 2024 could mark the Chrisley Knows Best patriarch and matriarch’s last chance to plead for freedom.
Savannah Chrisley Reveals Parents’ Appeal Progress
Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley flaunted their wealth on Chrisley Knows Best. But the reality TV patriarch and matriarch then faced fraud charges. And after their conviction, Todd and Julie began their 19-year combined prison sentences.
However, now their daughter Savannah Chrisley has offered an update on the appeal process via Pop Culture. And the Chrisley Knows Best alum shared that Todd and Julie received good news in their quest for oral arguments.
Turning to Instagram, Savannah shared her “huge news” in a video. And she confessed, “I am freaking out! As you know, we are spending Thanksgiving a little different this year, because I wasn’t going to fake it. I wasn’t going to do the traditional Thanksgiving we’re always used to.”
But then the Chrisley Knows Best alum described the exciting phone call that she received. “And the appeals court has granted our oral arguments. So, I literally was sobbing.”
Todd Chrisley Moves ‘One Step Closer’ To Prison Freedom
And Savannah shared her belief that the appeals case progress means the Chrisley Knows Best clan has moved “one step closer to getting mom and dad home.” But she confessed that the excitement overwhelmed the family, adding, “The kids are freaking out. I’m freaking out. I got to explain it to Chloe. It’s just amazing.”
And Savannah revealed that March 25, 2024 will mark the beginning of oral arguments in her parents’ case. But she also explained the significance of that progress. And the Chrisley Knows Best alum shared that “only about 6 percent of cases that are submitted for oral arguments get accepted. So this is huge news. We get to go and argue why mom and dad should be home. So, God is good. Thanksgiving win!”
But Savannah also revealed that she views the March oral arguments phase of her parents’ appeal as perhaps their last chance for freedom. And she shared, “Oral argument in an appellate court represents a critical moment in every case. The briefs are written, and the panel may already be leaning towards a decision. Oral argument, therefore, is an opportunity to cement the panel’s decision in your favor, or perhaps your final chance to save your case.”
Todd Chrisley Will Receive Freedom In 2033
Julie and Todd first received their prison sentences in November 2022. And in the wake of their bank fraud and tax evasion convictions, Todd received a 12-year sentence. And Julie learned that she would spend seven years behind bars. However, both must then serve 16 months of probation.
Since beginning their prison sentences, both Chrisley Knows Best alums received earlier release dates. For instance, Todd now will head home on Jan. 22, 2033. And Julie currently will receive her release on Oct. 19, 2028.
