Jail Communications
On 1 August 2021, Chris was arrested on a charge of incest against his mother Barbara, marking the first fully offline saga of Christory since his high school years. Almost all knowledge of what Chris and Barbara have been up to since his arrest has come from communications from jail – letters and phone calls – while he awaits his hearings.
Chris's jail communications were suspended for a few months. Following his transfer from Central Virginia Regional Jail to Western State Hospital in February 2022, all mail sent to Chris at the jail was returned to the sender unread; Chris returned to the jail in May 2022 and resumed mail communications. Chris stopped communicating after that, and was released in March 2023.
This page catalogues Chris's written letters. Drawings which Chris has mailed out from jail are featured on the Jail Art page.

Chris began sending handwritten letters from jail shortly after his arrest on 1 August 2021, although weens did not begin writing him en masse until the uploading of his "Jesus letter" to Kiwi Farms in late September. The envelopes arrive with a stamped disclaimer that the facility neither "censor[s] nor inspect[s]" Chris's letters – which has allowed him to release even more Honest Content.

The Goddess Log is a journal Chris has kept in jail. It was mentioned in several of Chris's letters from jail. Chris's 27 November 2021 letter to Kenneth Engelhardt mentions that he began keeping the journal on or before 7 August 2021, although it is not known when he began calling it the "Goddess Log".[2]
Chris also makes mention in a November 2021 letter of the Akashic records, a compedium of all universal thoughts, events, words, and emotion recorded for all time in the religion of theosophy. Chris claims to have gotten several of the things he has recorded in the logs from the Akashic Guardian, who is the scribe of these records.
Chris was released from jail on 27 March 2023. In an October 2023 livestream, he mentioned that his crew was working on transcribing the Goddess Log's pages for publication.[3] According to Praetor the Goddess Log is hundreds of pages long and must be censored to remove names and addresses within it.[4]
