The car accident that seriously injured Grayson Chrisley, the son of Todd and Julie Chrisley, occurred earlier this month in Nashville. The Chrisley family has become famous because of the reality series “Chrisley Knows Best,” which has been airing for the past nine years and has spawned several spinoffs.
On the 12th of November, an accident happened when a driver stopped at a stop sign on Interstate 65 North and was rear-ended. Using information from the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, News determined that 16-year-old Chrisley was the second vehicle’s driver.
The first car’s driver was hurt in the collision, but he rejected ambulance evacuation. Chrisley “cannot recall anything from the accident, probably owing to a brain injury,” the department said. A medical ambulance took him there.
Heavy congestion on I-65N resulted in the towing of both automobiles. The collision occurred almost a week ago, but news of it only began to spread this week, thanks to TMZ.
The teen’s parents were awaiting punishment after being convicted of fraud and tax evasion earlier this year when the news of the accident broke. The Associated Press reported that at around 11 p.m. on Monday, both Todd and Julie Chrisley were given sentences of 12 years in jail plus 16 months on probation.
Federal prosecutors recommended 17.5 to nearly 22 years in prison for Todd Chrisley and 10 to 12.5 years for Julie Chrisley in a sentencing memorandum they released earlier this month. The sentencing hearing began on Monday and will resume on Tuesday.
