"Todd Chrisley ordered to pay tax investigator $755,000 for defamation after losing lawsuit while in prison"

Fox News, in an article by Ashley Hume, reported on the $755,000 verdict obtained by Wade, Grunberg & Wilson, LLC for their client against reality television star Todd Chrisley, of “Chrisley Knows Best.” On April 4, a federal jury found Chrisley liable to WGW’s client for $755,000 for making false and defamatory statements about her during his podcast, “Chrisley Confessions,” and on social media. Chrisley had started a social media campaign against the Georgia Department of Revenue investigator after the Department began investigating Chrisley. 

The article quoted Nicole Wade:

In a statement to Fox News Digital, [plaintiff]’s lead counsel, Nicole Wade, said, ‘Amy is thrilled with the jury’s verdict against Todd Chrisley. These lies have been hanging over her head for four years, and she is very thankful that the jury believed in her and vindicated her. The jury found on all counts that Mr. Chrisley’s accusations were false and defamatory, and they also found that he acted with actual malice and specific intent to harm Amy,’ Wade continued. ‘The verdict against Mr. Chrisley proves that social media personalities will be held accountable for publicizing lies about an innocent person, and it is a lesson that we hope he takes to heart.’
