Summary
Todd Chrisley said on Sean Hannity’s podcast that a corrections officer stopped him returning from the prison library and told him he had been pardoned and would go home within hours.
Chrisley said he then called daughter Savannah in tears to confirm the news after Trump had phoned her directly as she left a Sam’s Club.
Savannah immediately shifted to logistics—lining up a plane for Todd and sending her brothers to pick up Julie Chrisley, who was also pardoned.
Trump pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley in May 2025, and the couple left prison after serving about 2.5 years of a combined 19-year sentence tied to bank fraud and tax evasion convictions.
The interview revisits a case in which the Chrisleys have maintained their innocence and Savannah became the family’s leading public advocate for their release.
