Todd Chrisley is ascribing a higher purpose to his time in prison.
The Chrisley Knows Best alum is serving out a decade-long sentence on bank fraud and tax evasion charges right now at FPC Pensacola in the Florida panhandle.

Todd’s attorney Jay Surgent spoke to TMZ on Wednesday morning and revealed that the shockingly bad conditions within the walls of FPC Pensacola have inspired the reality TV star to act. Surgent told the outlet:

But whatever the solution may be, the reality TV vet sure sounds fired up about the problem.
