Lo scandalo dell’evasione fiscale in corso di Todd e Julie Chrisley ha preso una svolta definitiva in peggio con un verdetto di colpevolezza a giugno. Condannate con l’accusa di evasione fiscale, frode bancaria e bancaria e cospirazione, secondo Us Weekly, le star di “Chrisley Knows Best” hanno immediatamente combattuto la conclusione legale. Dall’aggiunta di un nuovo avvocato all’estensione del loro calendario fino alla richiesta di assoluzione, la coppia in conflitto si è rifiutata di andare tranquillamente. Come una fonte ci ha detto a giugno, il verdetto preoccupante – che prevede una condanna fino a 30 anni di carcere – significava che tutti i piani di Todd e Julie erano “praticamente in pausa” per il momento.

Calling their trial "fundamentally unfair," per Law360, Todd and Julie filed their request for an acquittal as well as a new trial in late August. Although no acquittal has been granted just yet, the reality stars did receive another legal blessing right as their former sentencing date was looming closer. 

Todd and Julie Chrisley get some positive legal news

Originally due for an October 6 sentencing in their tax fraud case, Todd and Julie Chrisley have been granted a delay in their upcoming court date. According to new legal documents obtained by ET, the "Chrisley Knows Best" stars will now appear in an Atlanta, Georgia courtroom on November 21. However measured, this piece of good news is positive nonetheless for the embattled couple. Facing up to 30 years in jail for tax fraud and conspiracy, the Chrisleys pled their innocence in an August motion for a retrial. Claiming that IRS Revenue Officer Betty Carter lied under oath about their tax evasion, Todd and Julie argued in the filing this led to a false perception that they are "untruthful, likely to commit other forms of fraud, and evading the tax payments alleged in the indictment." 

The Chrisleys have been outspoken throughout their ordeal since Todd's Instagram post right before their June trial began. On an August 24 episode of his podcast, "Chrisley Confessions" (via Us Weekly), the real estate tycoon got surprisingly candid about his and his family's "imperfections." Purporting to be unashamed by his struggles, Todd told listeners, "It was me making that decision, whether it be good, bad or indifferent." So, basically... it is what it is?
