Savannah Chrisley worked hard to get her parents released from prison.

"Obviously, the biggest misconception right now is that I either paid for a pardon or slept for a pardon of something," Savannah, 27, told reporters in Nashville. "And if people knew the countless hours and the money and the time that I spent going to D.C., literally with not a meeting scheduled, and I just got on a plane and went and said, 'I'm going to be in the right room at the right time and meet the right people.'"

Savannah detailed the countless hours she spent fighting for her parents' freedom.

"I fought hard and I was exhausted and I begged for meetings," she continued. "I was never too good to ask. And that's the thing, is people think, 'Oh, you're a celebrity, you're white, you have money, that we got an upper hand,' and we didn't. I had to fight and I was relentless and that's how it happened. Finally, people listened."

Todd Chrisley claims he was wrongfully convicted.

Todd, who was seated beside his daughter at the press conference, was "consumed with pride" over how she made a "longshot" a reality.

He revealed that he was "convicted of something that [he] did not do" and is grateful his freedom was granted.

"Being in the prison system, anyone that says it's a fair shake, it's not," he explained. "Because I dealt with young African American males in the prison that I was in that were not treated the same. They were denied programs, they were denied access to certain things. I was not denied that. We know why I wasn't denied that."

Todd and Julie Chrisley were released from prison.

He encouraged listeners to re-examine the justice system, regardless of their politics.

"I think that is a much bigger picture that we all as a society as a whole need to look at that we are one," the reality star added. "Whether you're Republican or Democrat or whatever, at the end of the day, when you're in that hospital, you don't care if it's a Democrat treating you or a Republican. Now, some of you may, I want whoever is going to be the best person to do that."
