About this episode
The episode explores the complex factors behind Todd and Julie Chrisley's criminal behavior, examining their family history and environmental influences.
Todd and Julie Chrisley’s criminal actions are well documented in court records. What we don’t know is the “why.” Why’d they choose to enter into a life of crime? Today, experts tend to agree that criminal behavior isn’t decided by just one factor, but rather a complex combination of both the environment and a person’s biology. A person learns behavior from their environment, but it’s their genes, their family biology, that determines how they learn it. While we can never truly know the “why” behind Julie and Todd Chrisley’s criminal behavior over the years, especially when they have yet to admit any wrongdoing, we can take a look at some of the factors that may have had an impact on their choices and behavior.

Turns out, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, at least when it comes to Todd.
