In a disturbing twist, Kyle Chrisley, the oldest son of television stars Todd and Julie Chrisley, was arrested by authorities on Saturday night, December 20, in Rutherford County on domestic violence charges.
This is not the first time he has been detained, the arrest comes just a few months after his parents were pardoned by US President Donald Trump.
Kyle was booked into the Rutherford County Adult Detention Center in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, USA.
The framed charges against him reportedly include domestic violence, public intoxication and more.
Who is Kyle Chrisley?
Kyle Chrisley is the first born of a television personality and real estate entrepreneur, best known as the host of the reality show Chrisley knows best.
Todd shares Kyle and daughter Lindsie, 35, with ex-wife Teresa Terry and shares three children with his current spouse, Julie Chrisley – Savannah, 28, Chase, 29, and Grayson, 19.
Kyle has faced numerous previous legal troubles, including charges of domestic violence, public intoxication, disorderly conduct, three counts of assault on an emergency worker and resisting arrest, as reported by TMZ.
In March 2023, Kyle was arrested on a charge of aggravated assault and released after posting $3,000 bond, the case was later dismissed for undisclosed reasons.
Kyle’s attorney, Wesley Clark, said the suit aims to hold officials accountable and prevent other families from enduring the same terrifying experience as the Chrisleys.
Kyle Chrisley’s recent arrest comes just months after his parents, Todd and Julie, were released from prison via a pardon from US President Donald Trump.
Todd and Julie had served 28 months in prison after being convicted of tax evasion and bank and wire fraud, although they have consistently maintained their innocence.
