Todd Chrisley Could Be Picked On For Speaking About 'Disgusting' Living Conditions In Jail: Abby Lee Miller
Todd Chrisley's move to speak up about the "disgusting" living conditions in jail could backfire on him, according to Abby Lee Miller.
The former "Dance Moms" choreographer recently reacted to Chrisley's revelation in a new interview. Miller was previously sentenced to 366 days in prison after she was convicted of concealing assets from the bankruptcy court and one count of failing to report an international currency transaction, according to the Department of Justice. She only served eight months.
According to the professional choreographer, Todd could have a more challenging experience as guards could pick on him after he spoke about the dire living conditions in jail.
"They going to get you. They're going to find a way to humiliate you further," she told Daily Mail, referring to the prison guards.
"They're going to find a way to take your privileges away. They're going to find a way to just make it worse than it is for everyone else."
Miller understood that Todd only wanted to share about the condition he was living in. However, she believes his inflammatory statement would reach the Bureau of Prisons. When asked if Miller supports Todd's decision to speak up about the matter, she said, "Absolutely."
"The prisoners are probably thrilled that he told everyone that [cat] fell on them," she added. "It's the guards. Go, Todd."
Todd and his wife, Julie Chrisley, 50, were both convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud in 2022. They began serving their prison sentence in January 2023.
In December, Todd claimed that his life behind bars was far from comfortable, alleging that they were served expired food, his family was blackmailed and a team of employees wanted to "humble him."
He mentioned being photographed while sleeping. The photo was allegedly sent to his daughter, and they asked her $2,600 monthly for his protection.
"It is so disgustingly filthy. The food is literally, I'm not exaggerating -- the food is dated, and it's out of date by, at minimum, a year," the "Chrisley Knows Best" star said about the food in jail in his first-ever prison interview on Chris Cuomo's NewsNation.
"It's a year past expiration. And they are literally starving these men to death here. These men are getting -- I don't know -- they are getting a thousand calories a day."
He also shared that he didn't eat the free meals and instead paid for groceries from the commissary. However, it was also sabotaged, blaming an unnamed employee who reportedly cut down what they could buy in the commissary.
"So, before she came here, you could buy 12 packs of tuna a week. She cut it down to six, and from six, it went to three. She had not given a reason -- when I asked her about it, she said commissary is a privilege, not a right," Todd shared.
Last week, Todd's daughter Savannah told NewsNation that his dad faced "retaliation" for speaking up. The facility allegedly went to "the extent of planting cell phones, drugs, going through his lockers" so they could "send him to a facility and truly behind bars."
"It is heartbreaking for me to watch as his daughter, but they have even gone to the extent of stating that they will try to ship him to a state facility because our federal institutions cannot guarantee his safety," Savannah said.
