Lindsie Chrisley Arrested on DUI Suspicion in Georgia

Lindsie Chrisley was arrested on Saturday night, May 23, in Georgia on suspicion of DUI, and she says she was booked and immediately released. The 36-year-old former Chrisley Knows Best star said she plans on fighting the charge after what she described as a roadside incident tied to avoiding an animal.

Jail records obtained by TMZ said she was booked into jail before bonding out early Sunday morning. That sequence put the arrest on a short timeline, but it still leaves her facing a driving charge that can move into court even when custody is brief.

Chrisley said, “I got pulled over speeding past a car on a two lane road because they almost hit an animal and I was trying to miss hitting them and whatever the animal was,” adding that she was “booked and immediately released” and “plans on fighting the charge.”

Weeks After Landsman Arrest

The arrest lands weeks after her boyfriend, David Landsman, was arrested and booked on one count of aggravated assault. A source said police saw visible injuries on Chrisley when they arrived during that earlier incident, which makes the current arrest part of a larger stretch of public scrutiny rather than an isolated headline.

Chrisley’s name has stayed in the family’s public dispute as well. She is estranged from her father, Todd Chrisley, who believes she assisted federal agents in his tax evasion case, while she has denied any wrongdoing in that matter.

Chrisley Family Rift

Savannah Chrisley also opened up last year about the family’s estrangement from Lindsie Chrisley. For readers following this case, the immediate takeaway is straightforward: the DUI arrest adds a fresh legal problem to a family already dealing with overlapping criminal and personal disputes, and Chrisley says she will contest it rather than absorb it quietly.
