July 2012

July 2012. For many, it heralds the coming of Independence Day, fireworks and freedom. For Chris, it might herald the day his freedom is taken away, as the fallout from 28 October 2011 comes to a head, with his indictment coming up. If he is found guilty and extremely unlucky, this may very well be the beginning of the Jailbird Saga for him. If he manages to escape this fate, however, there is still the matter of his mother's possible conviction, which could put him in very dire circumstances, and then there's Snyder's civil suit.

Events

• 10 July - At 2:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, Chris and Barb were arraigned on their felony charges. They were sentenced with community service and probation time each, and Chris must attend psychiatric treatment and evaluation. Community service was suggested by his lawyer to help "reintegrate Chris into society," and will likely be the hardest thing Chris has done in his life yet.
