Overview
- Police booked Chrisley early Sunday in Cherokee County on suspicion of driving under the influence, attempting to elude police, reckless driving, improper passing and speeding, and she was released after posting bond.
- Records viewed by multiple outlets list the DUI specifically as a 'DUI less safe' charge, a Georgia category that allows prosecution even when blood-alcohol content is below 0.08 percent.
- Attempting to elude was charged alongside the DUI, a count that can increase criminal exposure when paired with impaired-driving allegations under Georgia law.
- Chrisley told TMZ she plans to fight the charges and gave a version of events saying she passed a car to avoid hitting an animal; no court dates or case dispositions have been reported.
- The arrest follows a recent mutual no-contact order with her ex-boyfriend David Landsman and arrives against ongoing public scrutiny of the wider Chrisley family's legal troubles, which could keep the matter in the spotlight as proceedings move forward.
