Todd Chrisley Opens Up About Crying Himself to Sleep on First Night in Prison

Everyone knows Todd Chrisley from his reality TV show, but recently he’s been sharing a very different kind of reality: life behind bars. Todd and his wife Julie sat down for an interview with ABC News Studios’ IMPACT x Nightline special, The Chrisleys: Life After Lockup, where they reflected on their time in prison.

Todd revealed that his first night in prison was tough. He said he was angry at God and cried himself to sleep, questioning why this was happening to him. Julie shared that she missed out on important moments like holidays, birthdays, and graduations during her time behind bars.

The couple were granted full pardons by President Donald Trump in May and released from prison shortly after. They had been convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud, which they have denied, and their sentences were reduced before their release.

Todd admitted that prison changed him, and he spoke out against what he believes was a wrongful conviction in a press conference. He emphasized the importance of freedom and the impact of incarceration on a person.
