Todd and Julie Chrisley may have to forfeit their two $9 million mansions to pay a $17.2 million fine related to their tax fraud scheme.
The couple, known for the TV show 'Chrisley Knows Best,' was sentenced in Atlanta on Monday to a combined total of 19 years in jail after they were found guilty in their $30 million tax fraud case - less than two days after their youngest son was seriously injured in a car crash in Nashville.
While Todd and Julie plan to appeal their sentencing, they have since been ordered by Atlanta Judge Eleanor Ross to pay $17.2 million in restitution.
'They're going to have to give up a lot of things, including their homes, sadly,' a source told the New York Post . 'They won't be able to afford it. But their main concern now is their children, especially their youngest boy.'
The couple's attorney Alex Little said the trial was full of 'serious' errors and that they are optimistic about the appeal.
'Yesterday was a difficult day for the Chrisley family,' Little wrote in a statement. 'But Todd and Julie are people of faith, and that faith gives them strength as they appeal their convictions.
'Their trial was marred by serious and repeated errors, including the government lying to jurors about what taxes the couple paid. Based on these issues, we are optimistic about the road ahead.'
