Todd Chrisley’s son Kyle is being charged with allegedly sending death threats to his ex-wife who was dropped after she refused to cooperate
Todd Chrisley’s son Kyle has been able to put one of his legal problems behind him.
The 32-year-old — whose father is in federal prison serving a 12-year sentence — is no longer charged in Georgia for allegedly threatening his estranged wife’s life.
The charges were dropped because Kyle’s estranged wife, Alexus, is no longer cooperating with prosecutors, according to documents obtained by TMZ.
The DeKalb County District Attorney told the outlet, “After further investigation, review of the evidence and consultation with the victim, based on all facts and circumstances, our office declined to prosecute the case.”
The accusations have hung over his head for years.
