Chase Chrisley is Todd and Julie’s oldest child together. Many fans were introduced to him and his family through the USA Network reality series, Chrisley Knows Best.
Back in 2022, Todd and Julie were sentenced to a combined 19-year sentence on charges including bank fraud and tax evasion. This past May, however, saw the couple receive a presidential pardon from President Donald Trump.
Chase recently appeared on the GAFollowers YouTube channel, where he opened up about his parents’ arrest. During the moment, he made shocking claims over who he felt was to blame for his parents’ initial arrest.
As the interview went on, it was mentioned that there was “speculation” concerning Chase’s half-siblings Lindsie and Kyle, “possibly having something to do with actually sending [Todd and Julie] to prison.” When asked if there was any truth to the story, Chase shared, “Like as far as, like, working against us with the government…100%, they did.”
Chase then asked for clarification if they outright said they were not involved with the arrest. The interviewer noted, “Well, it wasn’t necessarily [that] they came out. But it was a lot of stuff online. Maybe they posted, or, you know, interviews they’ve done.”

Chase reiterated, “Yes, they did.” He continued, “The FBI letter that my… I’m not even going to say her name… but that she wrote was read in court and she was sitting next to me.” He then continued to describe the situation with his siblings as “heartbreaking.”
When asked about Lindsie and Kyle’s relationship with the family, Chase noted, “I can’t speak for my whole family. But I know how my dad raised us to when people tell you who they are to when they show you who they are, believe them. And that what we have had to go through… it was a lot of pain. It was a lot of trauma. And I’m never going to put myself in that position again and be hurt.”
Chase continued, “So, I do not have a relationship with either one of them. I wish them nothing but the best. But, no, that chapter of that book is taken out for me.” However, he added that he “forgave” them but said he wouldn’t “forget.”
