Todd Chrisley admitted his anger at God for his imprisonment.
The Chrisley Knows Best star told ABC News about the emotions he processed during his time in prison.
Prison reflections from Todd Chrisley:
“I was angry at God,” Todd admitted when asked about his first night in federal prison. “And when I went to bed that night and the lights went out, I cried myself to sleep and I said, ‘God, why are you allowing this?'”
“You don’t realize the things you take for granted until they’re gone. Your freedom, your ability to go to church, go out to eat, stay in your bed all day. When you have those things back, it’s a blessing.”
“If [incarceration] didn’t change you, then you’re not human.”
Todd’s focus is clearing his and Julie’s names:
“Even though this pardon has happened, I still was convicted of something that I did not do.”
“It could be you, it could be you, it could be any of you, and somewhere in this room, someone has had a family member that has been affected by the system.”
Todd added, “I don’t have an apology to give you or anyone else over the money that I’ve made.”
