Kyle Chrisley Arrested on Multiple Charges, Including Domestic Assault and Public Intoxication

Kyle Chrisley has been arrested in Tennessee on multiple charges, including domestic assault and public intoxication.

The 34-year-old son of Todd and Julie Chrisley was arrested by the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday, Dec. 20, at around 7 p.m. local time, according to TMZ. He was booked into the Rutherford County Adult Detention Center that same night.

The outlet reported that Kyle has been charged with domestic assault, public intoxication, disorderly conduct, assaulting a first responder, resisting arrest and retaliation for past actions.

PEOPLE reached out to the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office for additional information on Sunday, Dec. 21, but did not receive an immediate response.

Back in August, Kyle and his wife, Ashleigh, sued Rutherford County and two sheriff’s deputies over his September 2024 aggravated assault arrest.

In court documents obtained by PEOPLE at the time, attorneys for the Chrisley Knows Best star and his wife claimed Kyle was unfairly arrested and “punished for calling for help.”

“Our hopes for this lawsuit are accountability and change because no family should have to endure what the Chrisley family endured in this terrifying scenario,” Kyle’s lawyer, Wesley Clark of Brazil Clark, PLLC, said in a statement to PEOPLE.

The lawsuit alleged that, on Sept. 9, 2024, “a disgruntled mechanic, angry over a payment dispute, showed up uninvited, kicked at their doors, threatened violence, and used his car as a weapon by ramming their SUV and nearly running Kyle over in front of multiple neighbors.”

Deputies from the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office “didn’t arrest the man who caused the chaos,” the lawsuit claimed. “Instead, they arrested Kyle Chrisley, and ignored clear evidence that he was the victim, not the aggressor.”

The filing claimed that Kyle and Ashleigh “bring this lawsuit because no family should face criminal charges or threats of arrest for defending themselves at home or for exercising their constitutional rights. This is a case about false arrest, excessive force and retaliation for trying to hold police officers accountable.”

The lawsuit stated that Kyle suffered humiliation and damage to his public reputation, pain and suffering, mental suffering and emotional distress, and economic losses due to the arrest.

Attorneys requested a jury trial and $1.7 million in damages, in addition to attorney fees.

Kyle was previously arrested for alleged felony aggravated assault in March 2023 following a physical altercation with a supervisor while working at a truck rental company in Smyrna, Tenn.

Kyle’s latest arrest comes after his parents were pardoned by President Donald Trump.

The pardons put an end to a legal saga, which led to the pair being indicted on 12 counts of bank and wire fraud, tax evasion and conspiracy and later convicted and sentenced to a combined 19 years in prison in November 2022.
