Alaskan Bush People is an American docudrama-style reality television series that follows the Brown family in an attempt to survive in the wilderness, detached from modern society. The series premiered on the Discovery Channel on May 6, 2014.[1] Filmed on location in Alaska near Copper Center, Hoonah, and Chichagof Island,[2] with later seasons filmed on location in Okanogan County, Washington, it follows the extended Brown family's life.[3][4] Although purportedly a genuine reality TV show, it has been criticized for being scripted and/or fake.[5][6][7][8]

Billy was previously married to Brenda Britt; their daughter, Twila Byars, appeared in the episode "Growing the Wolfpack" (S05E04).[17] It has been suggested that the couple had a second child, Brandy.[18]
Residency issues
editOn October 3, 2014, following an investigation by the Alaska Department of Revenue, a Juneau grand jury indicted the Browns with 60 counts of first-degree unsworn falsification regarding Permanent Fund Dividend forms for their residency and first- and second-degree theft that took place between 2009 and 2012.[19]
Billy was charged with 24 of those counts, which occurred from 2010 to 2013 as well as for the theft of more than $21,000 in dividend money for himself and others.[19] The charges meant that the state believed the family spent more than 180 days a year living outside of Alaska and lied about it on their applications.[19]
On November 18, 2015, Billy and Joshua struck a plea deal for the whole family except Matt and Rain (Matt wasn't living there and didn't file and Rain was too young). They pled guilty for the rest of the family for lying on PFD forms.[20] Billy and Joshua's punishment for stealing over $21,000 was restitution, fines and 30 days of house arrest at a Juneau hotel.
