ATLANTA (KDVR/CNN) -- Arrest warrants have now been issued for reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley and their former accountant. All face several federal charges that include tax evasion and conspiracy to commit bank fraud.
On Tuesday the reality stars were indicted by a grand jury on tax evasion charges by the Northern District of Georgia.
The 12-count indictment, obtained by CNN, also alleges the Chrisleys committed bank fraud and wire fraud conspiracy, among other offenses.
The married couple are stars of the USA Network reality series “Chrisley Knows Best,” which follows their family's over-the-top lifestyle and activities.
Before the indictment was issued, Todd Chrisley took to Instagram to deny the claims, implying the charges are based on evidence presented to investigators by a disgruntled former employee.
