Checking into prison is not at all like checking into a hotel — just ask Todd and Julie Chrisley.
According to official documents and an intake manual obtained by Hollywood Life, the Chrisleys were subjected to a “thorough strip search,” a “full body X-Ray,” and a medical and psychological interview upon arrival at their separate federal prison facilities. But that’s not all. It’s reported that the former television personalities were also fingerprinted and photographed as part of the process to receive their prison ID — an identification card they must have in their possession at all times that includes their full name, registration number, and personal details. As far as wardrobe goes, they traded their designer duds in for “R&D clothes,” meaning release and discharge clothing, that includes t-shirt, socks, elastic-waist pants, and slip-on shoes in brown or white. Instead of being greeted with a luxury gift basket complete with cheese and gourmet chocolate, they were bestowed with “a brown bag meal or a meal tray from the dining hall.”

Perhaps, however, their first day wasn’t all bad. Defense attorney Allan Ellis (via the New York Post) described Todd’s prison as a “pretty laid-back experience.” He added, “If I had to do time, that’s one of the places I’d want to be designated to.” As for Julie, her new home away from home offers many recreational activities as well including aerobics, music, and even health education classes, per Wonderwall. Yoga, anyone?
