Will Todd & Julie Chrisley Be Pardoned by Donald Trump and Released?
Savannah Chrisley has been celebrating Donald Trump‘s presidential victory on Tuesday (November 5) as she hopes it will lead to the release of her incarcerated parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley.
The reality star took to her Instagram page following Tuesday’s election results, where she celebrated Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. “Y’all, we did it,” Savannah said in a series of videos on her Instagram Stories, where she could be seen in a red USA hat and a Make America Great Again sweatshirt.
According to DailyMail.com, a source said, “Savannah truly believes Trump will pardon her parents” and that “Todd is jumping for joy in prison and is so optimistic that he will be able to walk out of there when Trump takes office.”
“Ever since they were convicted she has spent every waking hour campaigning to free them and when she found the loophole through the RNC she jumped on it,” the source continued, referring to Savannah’s appearance at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin back in July.
“She took that stage in the hope of seeing her parents walk out of jail and it will likely happen. So of course she is gloating. Everyone is just hoping that she stops going on,” the source added.
Todd and his wife Julie were convicted in 2022 of wire fraud, conspiracy to commit bank fraud, and conspiracy to defraud the United States. Julie was given a 7-year sentence at FMC Lexington, while Todd was handed a 12-year sentence at Federal Prison Camp Pensacola. Julie’s sentence was upheld in September.

While Savannah appears confident Trump will pardon her mom and dad, others aren’t so sure. On the Chrisleys Know Best Reddit forum, users debated whether Trump’s election win meant Todd and Julie would walk free.
“Not a blip on that man’s radar. Todd and Julie will be staying right where they are. Sassy is delulu to think otherwise,” wrote one commenter.
“I think he has more important and pressing things to do. Pretty sure the Chrisley’s aren’t on his list of honey do’s,” said another.
Another added, “I sincerely hope not. There are more important things that need to be focused on than releasing a couple of loser celebrities who cry about jail conditions.”
“Trump doesn’t care about them and she’s about to find out and she’s going to be looking real stupid,” said one user.
“Remember when Joe Exotic was so convinced Trump was going to pardon him that he had a limo waiting at his prison ? He’s still waiting,” wrote another, referencing the Tiger King reality star.
“I really don’t see Trump doing anyone any favors out of the kindness of his heart. There’s gonna be a price to pay for sure,” added another.
Another wrote, “He 100% can pardon them if he wishes with no kickback (Especially because their crimes were nonviolent). Definitely not out of his hands. But the question of if he actually will is totally up in the air. I doubt he would but who knows.”
“I hope not but I think he will,” said another, offering an opposing view.

I 100% believe that President Trump will pardon them especially after watching what the weponized justice system has been doing for the past 4 years and they truly deserve to be pardoned!!!! I literally CAN'T WAIT to watch the millions of illegals who's bills we pay with taxpayer $$$ get sent back to Mexico and watch our beautiful 😍 Country go back together again!!!!!

Savanah should have kept her mouth shut in court.. her mama might have been home already.
I really liked the show but any one of us normal folk would be in jail and would have to serve our sentence.

The president NEEDS to be worried about homeless, uninsured, underinsured, hungry people.
The Chrisleys aren't anymore important than any other inmate.

Well, since Biden has pardoned his criminal son, Chrisley's don't compare, plus all the others from murderers, rapists, crooked politician and has now given medals to Hillary (murderer of our soldiers) and other treasonists, yes by all means

When someone does a crime there's usually a police report words can be changed and altered whts worse is some people dnt even know wht cops truely even said. So what people read is on the police report make sure you see that and know that yur words are not altered, I give credit to you savannah for going to the sources picture of you even with the President I do think worse crimes mayby chance that yur mom will come home they can both be on ankle monitor be with kid's lots ❤️ love good luck

I hope they are set free for the little Chloe most of all she has gone thru enough and I don’t care who else has gone thru stuff rn because this topic is about THe Christleys and they are hated becuz they lived well and are White - set them free!!!!!! Pedophiles and Murderers are given less time/ annoying.

@Jen dudley Really? Was she thinking about her kids when she was knowingly breaking the law? An ankle monitor is a privilege these days. She needs to do every second of her time! Since you're so down with getting her back to her kids, why don't you just trade places with her! Work that out.

Fauci was given a pardon and he murdered many with a slow horrible death. If Trump does not pardon them I will lose any respect for him.

They should be pardoned 100%. We all
Know the entire irs tax system is fraudulent as well as the banksters. Biden just pardoned convicted drug felons and his own son for gun charges? As well as numerous others who committed much worse crimes than this couple. They were set up on all sides from their accountant to the Obama appointed judge. Pedophiles get less time than they got it’s a joke.
I hope they get a full pardon and resume their show because it’s a waste of tax Dollars putting these folks in prison.

They are reality show star. Trumps favorite job, after being president, of course, is being a reality show star himself. The money. The fame. He’ll pardon them especially if they give him a contract for guest appearances on their show. You bet.

Trump isn't scum, the fake media makes him out to be. You'll be thankful when you have some money in your pocket after food shopping.
