America Uncanceled: Savannah Chrisley Joins Matt and Mercedes Schlapp to discuss her parents’ legal battles

Since her parents’ tax evasion and bank fraud case from 2012 to 2022, Savannah Chrisley has been a strong advocate for criminal justice reform. She joins Matt and Mercedes Schlapp to discuss the case and updates on her parents’ status.  


Todd and Julie Chrisley were sentenced to 12 and 7 years, respectively, for bank and tax fraud in a case that was wrought with corruption, lies, and politics. They were painted as evil conservatives and labelled, “the Trumps of the South”, by a government agent before a left-wing judge in Atlanta, Georgia. Internal communications obtained by the Chrisleys also showed IRS and FBI agents conspiring to manufacture the evidence used against them.  


Savannah Chrisley warned of the unsettling results if such corruption is not stopped, “You’re one bad prosecutor, one bad judge, one bad police officer away from this being you.” 


Now, Savannah Chrisley is working to reform the criminal justice system in two ways. First, she is working to restore integrity to government agents, hold them accountable for witch hunts, and prevent corruption in the future. She is also raising awareness of the poor conditions of her parents’ prisons that include expired, maggot-riddled food, sexual assault and abuse by correctional officers, lead paint, asbestos, and more.  


“When you look at our prison system, I’m not asking for it to be a Four Seasons by any means, but I’m asking for basic, bare necessities, clean water, clean food. That’s about it and no abuse. Just give us that,” said Chrisley.  


A small win came for the Chrisleys in June when Julie Chrisley’s sentence was vacated for insufficient evidence that she was involved in the tax fraud. Savannah Chrisley continues to fight for her father’s freedom and for reforms to the justice and prison systems.
