August 2021
August 2021 marked the third time in history that Chris was in serious legal trouble, this time for alleged incest with Barb.
The month began with Chris exiled from 14 Branchland Court, banned from Everfree Northwest, and stripped of Null’s financial support after stealing $750 from Barb’s bank account. Just 48 hours later, Chris was arrested and jailed without bond, and suspended from Patreon.
