Todd’s daughter Savannah is reportedly hoping to visit her parents in prison sometime during the holidays.
But it won’t be the same as their usual holiday routine. Todd and Julie are both in prison after they were found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion last year.
Savannah wants her parents home for the holidays but they still have a long way to go. Even though they have managed to reduce their 12 and seven-year sentences – Todd got years years off, and Julie got one off, the publication noted.

The publication reported that Todd will get a special Thanksgiving meal at FPC Pensacola in Florida, but it’s nothing like the home cooking he’s used to. Todd's attorney told the publication, "It sounds like reality is starting to sink in."
Surgent said they, however, are still looking for ways to get Todd home early. Todd has a new court date in March where his legal team will try to overturn his conviction, as said by his attorney.
