As for his wife, the records indicate that Julie is expected to be released from the Federal Medical Center Lexington on October 19, 2028, which is 14 months earlier than her original seven-year sentence.

The couple’s lawyer, Jay Surgent, informed Insider on Thursday that it is clear that Todd and Julie have been exemplary prisoners who received overly long sentences. Todd is currently serving a 10-year sentence, and Julie’s sentence has been reduced to five years. Surgent also mentioned that he anticipates further reductions in Chrisley’s sentences because of new sentencing guidelines set to be implemented in November.

Accusations made on the Chrisley stars

Todd, aged 54, and Julie, aged 50, began serving their prison sentences in Florida and Kentucky in January. This occurred two months following their convictions for fraud and tax evasion. The prosecutors said that the reality TV couple, who have been married for over 20 years, lied to banks when they applied for loans by using fake documents. They also claimed that Julie gave false credit reports and bank statements when she was trying to rent a house in California.

Moreover, Todd’s former business partner, Mark Braddock, said that Todd, from the show, “Chrisley Knows Best”, had an affair with him, and they gave money to someone trying to blackmail them to keep this alleged relationship secret. In June 2022, the Chrisleys were found guilty, and five months later, they were sentenced to a total of 19 years in prison.

This punishment makes it clear that regardless of how famous someone is, there will be serious penalties for cheating the American tax system, stated James E. Dorsey, who leads the IRS Criminal Investigation Atlanta field office, in a press release following the November 2022 sentencing.

Todd and Julie have three kids together: Chase, aged 27, Savannah, aged 26, and Grayson, aged 17. Todd also has two older children, Lindsie, aged 33, and Kyle, aged 32, with his ex-wife Teresa Terry.

Additionally, the couple adopted Kyles’s daughter, Chloe, aged 10, after Kyle, who was recovering from addiction, lost custody of her in 2016. When Todd and Julie started serving their prison sentences, Savannah took care of Chloe and her younger brother, Grayson. Chloe’s mom, Angela Johnson, is now working to regain custody of Chloe.

Under federal law, getting a significant early release or a reduced sentence for good behavior is a bit of a pipe dream for Todd Chrisley. As Tv Shows Ace previously reported, the disgraced reality TV star is in federal prison. Federal law requires him to serve at least 85 percent of his sentence.

Technically, this means there is an early release date option for Todd Chrisley. But, he will serve the majority of his 12-year sentence because federal law requires him to do so.

Still, Chrisley Knows Best fans can’t help but wonder: Is there an official early release date available for Todd Chrisley yet? How much is 85 percent of his sentencing and when could he get released?

Doing a bit of deep diving into public records on the reality TV star as an inmate at FPC Pensacola, fans were able to dig up the earliest release date possible for Todd Chrisley.

Earliest release date possible for Todd Chrisley revealed

Per public records, the earliest release date for good behavior for Todd Chrisley is April 7th, 2033. On Reddit, fans were in agreement it was a “wild” date to look at as it was a little over a decade from now. This means, at minimum, Todd is required to do 10 years and a few months of his 12-year sentence.

As Tv Shows Ace reported back in November, this slightly reduced sentence requires Todd to be a “model inmate.”

They are still hoping to appeal their situation

Presently, Todd and Julie Chisley have their legal team working to appeal their current situation. As fans know, Todd and Julie never plead guilty or apologized for their crimes. To date, they insist they never committed what they’ve been accused of. Per the federal judge, it is the lack of guilt that resulted in such harsh sentences.

Because Todd and Julie intended to appeal the case, however, they were unable to admit their guilt or apologize for their crimes to get a reduced sentence. Any admittance of guilt would have torpedoed their plans to appeal.
