Fox News Digital has reached out to Todd’s attorney as well as Federal Prison Camp Pensacola for comment.
Todd and his wife, Julie Chrisley, are currently serving out their combined 19-year sentence at separate facilities in Kentucky and Florida. Each reported to prison on January 17, 2023, after being convicted of federal bank fraud and tax evasion.
Todd was originally sentenced to 12 years in prison, while Julie was given seven, after initially being indicted in August 2019 on bank fraud and tax evasion charges. However, both of their sentences have since been reduced. They will also each complete 16 months of probation following the end of their prison sentences.
Julie’s convictions included conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, tax fraud and conspiracy to defraud the United States. She was also hit with wire fraud and obstruction-of-justice charges. She reported to the satellite minimum-security camp at the BOP facility in Lexington, a source confirmed to Fox News Digital at the time.

Since reporting to prison, the couple’s children have claimed that the reality TV duo have experienced “inhumane treatment.” The “Chrisley Knows Best” stars had no air conditioning and had encountered poisonous snakes, the two said on an episode of “Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley.”
“No s—….I don’t care if you killed somebody, if you’re in a government facility, you should have air conditioning. Like that’s just ridiculous,” Chase Chrisley said while speaking about the “nightmare” environment.
“Air conditioning is the least of it. Whenever you’ve got black mold, asbestos, lead-based paint, snakes,” Savannah continued.
“It’s not ‘Fear Factor,’” Chase responded before Savannah chimed in, “I mean, Chase, it is prison, so we’re not gonna sit here and act like it should be the Four Seasons.”
