Who is Amy Doherty-Heinze? How fraud, infidelity and a SEX TAPE ended in lawsuit for Todd Chrisley

The Daily Mail, which first reported the move, said that this was Doherty-Heinz's second file, while the first was still waiting. Chrisley had already acknowledged that he did not have any sex tapes. In his sworn statement from earlier in 2022, he also acknowledged that he could not support assertions about the affair or that Doherty-Heinze was a "criminal." Georgia Department of Revenue began its investigation into the Chrisleys in 2017, and it was reported that the online harrasment started shortly after.

Back in July 2021, Doherty-Heinze sued Chrisley for the same offense saying he accused "her of a multitude of crimes and wrongdoing" on social media and his podcast while she was investigating him four years earlier. Chrisley had managed to evade being served until November 21, according to a source who spoke to the outlet, “but they finally got him at Atlanta's Federal Courthouse when he showed up for sentencing."

As previously reported, US District Judge Eleanor Ross in Atlanta gave Todd Chrisley 12 years in prison along with 16 months of probation, while his wife Julie got seven years behind bars and 16 months of probation. The Chrisleys were sentenced after being found guilty earlier in 2022 on charges that included bank fraud and tax evasion. The prosecution said that the reality stars submitted fake documents to banks when applying for loans. Additionally, they alleged that the 49-year-old mother-of-three rented a house in California using fraudulent bank and credit reports.
