Reality Stars Todd & Julie Chrisley Found Guilty Bank Fraud Tax Evasion

LOS ANGELES, CA. (THECOUNT) — Todd and Julie Chrisley have been found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion by a jury Tuesday.

The Chrisleys were found guilty on a laundry list of charges, according to a court clerk for the northern district of Georgia. We’re told their accountant, Peter Tarantino, was also found guilty on related charges, including aiding and abetting the filing of false tax returns, reports TMZ.

As of now, a sentencing date hasn’t been scheduled, so the Chrisleys will remain on home detention until that hearing.

Todd’s lawyer Bruce Morris said, “We are disappointed in the verdict. We plan an appeal.”

The couple were found guilty on all charges relating to running a yearslong conspiracy to defraud banks and hiding their money from the IRS.

The Atlanta federal jury convicted Todd Chrisley of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States and tax fraud.

Julie Chrisley was convicted of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States, tax fraud, wire fraud.
