The president defended his decision by\u00a0describing<\/a>\u00a0the couple’s sentencing as “pretty harsh treatment.” In a phone call to the couple’s children, he\u00a0stated<\/a>, “It’s a terrible thing, but it’s a great thing, because your parents are going to be free and clean.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Harrison Fields, a White House spokesperson, further elaborated on the decision in a statement released the same day. He\u00a0explained<\/a>\u00a0that the president is “always pleased to give well-deserving Americans a second chance, especially those who have been unfairly targeted and overly prosecuted by an unjust justice system.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Harrison\u00a0added<\/a>, “President Trump called Savannah and her brother from the Oval Office to personally inform them that he would be pardoning their parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, whose sentences were far too harsh.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
