Savannah Chrisley broke her silence after Julie’s mother was released: “Of course, my mother is not guilty”.

Savannah Chrisley, who has been incredibly vocal in her parents’ quests for appeal following their respective prison sentences, has broken her silence in the wake of mother Julie Chrisley’s success.

The 26-year-old, who has taken on the role of family matriarch by caring for her little brother Grayson, 17, and niece Chloe, 11, has been involved in the legal process, too, all while keeping fans apprised of any and all updates as they work their ways through the courts—and was the first to reveal that her mother would be getting resentenced after the court finalized their decision on June 21.

On June 24th, she took to her Instagram Story to celebrate their progress, posting a photo of a highlighted document that appeared to be the complete ruling that led to a new reduction in her mother’s sentence.

Julie was originally sentenced to seven years in prison for tax evasion and bank fraud convictions. While a three-judge panel overturned the sentence she was given during the appeals process, ruling that the original judge presiding over her trial miscalculated her sentence—as there was not enough evidence to prove that she had been involved in the bank fraud scheme, which began in 2006, prior to 2007—her overall convictions were upheld.

Much to the family’s disappointment, though, Todd was unsuccessful in his appeal, and his sentence—which was reduced from 12 years to 10 last year—remains in place, as does their accountant Peter Tarantino’s.

As Savannah wrote across the photo of the ruling, “the fight never ends,” and they’re not stopping with her mother’s reduction.

“We’re pleased that the Court agreed that Julie’s sentence was improper, but we’re obviously disappointed that it rejected Todd’s appeal,” the Chrisleys’ attorney, Alex Little, told People following the news, as he revealed their plans to “challenge the couple’s convictions based on the illegal search that started the case.”

A lower court will revisit Julie’s case to determine what the length of her sentence will be reduced to.
