Todd Chrisley Hit With Prison Bombshell – Daughter Savannah Reacts

Locked-up reality star Todd Chrisley is set to move prisons as the Federal Prison Camp in Pensacola, Florida, where he is currently incarcerated, is set to be demolished.

According to The Associated Press, FPC Pensacola on Saufley Field is one of several facilities the Federal Bureau of Prisons is permanently closing. The BOP stated that the buildings at its Pensacola camp are in “significant disrepair” and will be demolished once its 500 prisoners and 100 staff members are relocated to other facilities.

Todd’s daughter Savannah Chrisley reacted to the news on her Instagram Stories, saying, “You know that I have over the past two years exposed so much corruption at FPC Pensacola and frankly within the whole Bureau of Prisons.”

She went on to say how the BOP called her a “liar” despite her claims that she “has all the documentation to prove what I have to say.”

Responding to the news of FPC Pensacola closing down, Savannah said, “It will be closing within the next six to nine months from what I’m being told, and I have mixed feelings about this because they’re closing it down, and that’s their way of not taking accountability. That’s their way of not holding these abusers accountable.”

Over the past two years, Savannah has shared details of the alleged conditions her father, Todd, has faced in prison. This includes claims of “inhumane conditions” such as out-of-date food, rat-infested kitchens, a lack of air conditioning, and even blackmail. Todd’s attorney, Jay Surgent, also claimed the “medical department is in shambles” and that his client was once given the “wrong medication.”

More recently, Todd lost his job in the prison chapel due to “associating with inmates” who are part of the prison’s Residential Drug Abuse Program, a move that Surgent claimed was “without cause.”

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.

In her latest Instagram video, Savannah said it’s “really infuriating” that FPC Pensacola is closing down to avoid accountability, but noted, “Thankfully, January, we have Donald Trump back in office, and I truly believe that the right people are going to be put in charge, who will do something about it.”

She continued, “It’s time for Colette Peters (Director of the BOP) to go. She has done nothing but foster an atmosphere for abuse. Time will tell; we’ll see how things pan out.”

The Chrisley Knows Best star added that she’s “working with a few senators” who want to “see and hear all the evidence she has,” and “for that, I am eternally grateful.”

“We’re gonna get some things done,” she stated. “Just because they’re closing down, doesn’t mean they won’t be held accountable. I’m going to make sure of that.”

As for where her Todd will end up, Savannah said she didn’t know, but she is holding out hope Trump will pardon her parents. Savannah appeared at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Investor Summit at Mar-a-Lago last month and spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in July.

“I don’t know where my dad’s going to go at this point,” Savannah stated. “Let’s hope and pray that he comes home.”

    I think it's borderline hilarious that all you entitled low IQ narcissists are getting your comeuppance and when I say "comeuppance", i am somewhat certain that the WAY too feminine "Todd" is getting more than hus fair share of "comeuppance" Here's a two suggestions. One you should be thankful that none of the people that he/she stole from had any access to them. Two be thankful he/she is not in a Mexican prison. They would surely make FPC seem like a tropical vacation. So go ahead Savannah sell your pride and moral (if you have any) to the highest bidder and only continue to prove the point that the so called entitled should not be held to the same rules of accountability as the rest of us. You may well be attractive on the outside but you are beyond ugly on the inside. Sweet dreams

      She’s only supporting him because she thinks her parents will be pardoned. I think their charges were a little harsh, but her big mouth isn’t helping anything.

      How do you sleep at night. It's just ignorant of you to stand by the system by saying their sentence, compared to others, is just or fair. Prisons should be for members of society that are dangerous or potentially dangerous. Neither Todd nor Julie are either of these things. I personally feel like they are treated worse because they did have a lot of money. I'm sure you already know that they worked hard to get where they were in life. It wasn't given to them just by the reality show. The

    I think that's not the only prison in the USA that's in trouble and is need of better staffing, better control of inmates, and prison conditions.

    Most importantly all officers needs to be protected from the prisoners. To many of the officers are begin kicked punched, stabbed, and some are even lying in comas from the beatings they have taken from the prisoners.

    Something has to change!!!

    In my opinion, Savannah is making things harder for her parents rather than helping. Of course they're going to get backlash in prison while their daughter is out here making all of these allegations (true or not) against the prison systems. Does she not know that these prisons house many types of criminals? She very well could be putting her parents lives in danger by doing this so openly.

    If you wanna fight the fight for your parents, do it quietly, not front and center on social media.

    **& I don't care one way or the other what the outcome will be . I just miss watching the grandma 😀

    I think they should repay money but prison is a bit much. They aren’t as bad as some politicians looking after our country. Maybe things will change in 2025..

        I fully agree with your comment Mary. I've pointed out many times the fact that Joe and Teresa got light sentences compared to Todd and Julie!! Child molesters get sentenced to a couple of years compared to Todd and Julie's time, it's unbelievable!! Makes no sense. Somebody make sense of this for me

    Savannah you are making things worse for your parents by constantly complaining. Judges hear you and will make things so much worse for your parents. Pensacola prison is the second poshest federal prison. I can imagine where Todd's going to end up because of her mouth. Your parents did the crime or they wouldn't be in prison. Stop acting so entitled and please tell your parents to apologize for all the corrupt things they did to innocent people. Your mom got even more probation and I believe because she never apologized and Savannah's constant complaining. If you do a crime, you serve time. Your parents pretended the were wealthy for TV cameras, all to have their world come crashing down on them. Now here Savannah is raising her siblings because of bad choices her parents made. I enjoyed watching the show, but the entitlement of this family is disgusting. Todd and Julie are where they are supposed to be.

      I totally agree!! Todd & Julie actually got off easy for swindling and stealing over $32 million dollars all while flaunting their fake wealth on national TV for years. I hope they rot in prison. Savannah is such a big mouth who's making things worse for her parents. That whole family is still living off stolen money. One of the most entitled familys out there!

    No worries Savanah. There is a convicted criminal that is president of the United States. Your convicted mother and father will probably be pardoned by 34 convicted felon. Don't forget about the other criminals. Ask for pardon for them. Stealing from government, non tax payer, fraud and sexual harassment. Maube your mom and dad will get a cabinet position. They are qualified.

    I'm not understanding why he and his wife are in prison for doing exactly what Donnie boy did, before and after his presidency. If he is free they and many others should be. When the laws are being followed again then it will count.
