Julie Chrisley became emotional while reflecting on her life in prison after she was resentenced in an Atlanta courtroom Wednesday (Sept. 26).
The former Chrisley Knows Best star was resentenced to 84 months behind bars for tax evasion and bank fraud, the same sentencing she originally received in 2022.
Back in June, a three-judge panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the convictions of Julie and her husband Todd Chrisley , but found that the trial judge had held Julie accountable for the entire scheme conducted by her and her husband. Her case was then sent back to the lower court, where Julie’s lawyer requested her sentence be reduced to five years maximum, per the Associated Press .

Meanwhile, Federal prosecutor Annalise Peters argued that Julie was a “core part” of the scheme and asked the judge to reinstate her seven-year sentence, per the AP.
Julie apologized to the court for her actions before the resentencing was handed down, noting that her time in prison “has been the most difficult part of my life.”
