DEKALB COUNTY, GEORGIA: Kyle Chrisley, Todd Chrisley’s oldest son, is no longer facing charges in Georgia after previously being accused of threatening the life of his ex-wife, Alexus Whilby. The charges were reportedly dropped because Whilby is refusing to cooperate with prosecutors.

The DeKalb County DA told TMZ, “After further investigation, review of the evidence and discussion with the victim, based on all facts and circumstances our office declined to prosecute the case.” Whilby had initially told authorities that Kyle has sent her a text message in January 2019, threatening her life.

Todd Chrisley is overwhelmed with guilt 

Meanwhile, Todd Chrisley is overwhelmed with guilt for letting his own "greed" destroy his family, an insider has said. Todd and his wife Julie Chrisley were sentenced to seven and 12 years in prison respectively in June 2022. The pair was found guilty in their $30 million tax fraud case. Both of them have maintained their innocence and launched an appeal against the verdict.

Julie and Todd were sentenced in Atlanta to a combined total of 19 years in jail. They are also set to serve as many as 16 months of probation each upon their release. The pair is not allowed to speak on the phone. They can email, but the emails are monitored. The insider said that their children have become messengers to "relay letters back and forth between them when they visit on the weekends."
