This article relates to a recent Chris-related event. As a result, there may be many CWCki users trying to contribute and the content of the article may change rapidly.

On 28 October 2011 - a date which will live in infamy - the GAMe PLACe was suddenly and deliberately attacked by forces of the City of CWCville.

On that Friday evening, around 5:20 p.m.[1], Chris and Barbara visited the GAMe PLACe and had an altercation with its manager, Michael Snyder. Chris took several photos of Michael on that day, and uploaded them to the CWCki in November. Why the delay? Well, as it turns out, he and Barb had been arrested by police for various offences - including trespassing, assault and failure to stop, and went to jail. Now both have been charged with a Class 5 Felony, which implies "a term of imprisonment of not less than one year nor more than 10 years, and ... a fine of not more than $100,000."[2]

Both Chris and Barb were released on bail following their arrest, with Chris's initial hearing being a week later than Barb's - possibly owing to the extra charge against him. It may also allow for additional information to be gathered about on his record of dealings with Michael Snyder and the GAMe PLACe, and also to consider any medical grounds that may affect the outcome of any court proceedings against Chris. Chris will be represented in court by Robert Bell.

This is the first major event that has come to light since the death of Bob on 6 September 2011.

The charges

Below are the charges brought against both Barbara and Chris, along with details and court dates based on the details from the General District Court Online Case Information System. At present we do not have a full account of what happened during the incident and under what circumstances the charges were brought against the pair. However, based on at least one previous incident in June 2010, we can assume a rough outline of events.

Barbara's

  • FAIL STOP ACCIDENT > $1000 FEL (§ 46.2-894. Duty of driver to stop, etc., in event of accident involving injury or death or damage to attended property; penalty.[3])
    • Class 5 Felony charge - Failing to stop after an accident where the damage exceeds $1,000 in value. Speculated to be damage to a vehicle in The GAMe PLACe parking lot.
  • ASSLT: ON LAW ENF/DOC PERSON (§ 18.2-57. Assault and battery.[4])
    • Class 6 Felony charge - Assaulting a law enforcement official. This may have happened later when an officer visited the Chandler house, since the "Fail to Stop" charge would indicate that neither Barb or Chris stuck around at the GAMe PLACe for the police to turn up.

Court dates

  • 31 October 2011 - Appeared in court to be formally charged.
  • 15 December 2011 - Due to appear in court again, possibly for the hearing.

Chris's

  • FAIL STOP ACCIDENT > $1000 FEL (§ 46.2-894. Duty of driver to stop, etc., in event of accident involving injury or death or damage to attended property; penalty.[3])
    • Class 5 Felony charge - Failing to stop after an accident where the damage exceeds $1,000 in value. Speculated to be damage to a vehicle in The GAMe PLACe parking lot.
  • ASSAULT: (MISDEMEANOR) (§ 18.2-57. Assault and battery.[4])
  • TRESPASS AFTER FORBIDDEN (§ 18.2-119. Trespass after having been forbidden to do so; penalties.[5])
    • Class 1 Misdemeanor charge - Tresspassing on land or within an area from which the offender is forbidden (by restraining order or police order). Most likely due to Chris entering or walking on to GAMe PLACe land, including driving onto the parking lot.

Court dates

  • 7 November 2011 - Date Chris is due in court. Unlike Barb, Chris has not yet appeared in court to have the charges formally announced.

Aftermath

  • On 4 November, soon after being bailed out of jail, Chris uploaded the pictures he took of Michael Snyder on the 28th to the CWCki, plastering them on the front page as well as Michael's own article, with Chris presumably doing it response to the events at The GAMe PLACe.[6] In the respective image descriptions, Chris claimed that Snyder molests children, and taunted him for his obesity.
