Kyle Chrisley, son of Chrisley Knows Best stars Todd and Julie Chrisley, is suing Rutherford County, Tennessee, and two sheriff deputies for $1.7 million. The lawsuit claims false arrest and excessive force during a September 2024 incident at his home. According to court documents, Chrisley was arrested on aggravated assault charges after a confrontation with a mechanic over a payment dispute.
The lawsuit states that Kyle and his wife Ashleigh were “terrorized in their own home” on September 9, 2024. The couple claims they called police for help but were instead “punished for calling for help.” The incident began when a mechanic came to their Tennessee home demanding additional payment for work that had allegedly already been paid in full. Kyle is the son of reality TV stars who were convicted of fraud before their recent legal troubles.
