Chris's mugshot for his incest charge, Henrico County Sheriff's Office.

“	I am Chris-Chan Sonichu, your goddess Blue Heart, and I continue to stand strong, and I maintain everything with CWCVille and my Sonichus and Rosechus and everybody. I keep in good faith that everything is going to work out.	”
Chris's speech, while being arrested.

Following the incest allegations of late July against Barb, hundreds of people contacted the police, and authorities conducted a welfare check, issuing an Emergency Protective Order on Chris the following day (essentially a temporary week-long restraining order). Chris was made temporarily homeless, and stayed at the Regency Inn Richmond for the meantime. Chris was arrested on 1 August 2021, outside of the Inn. The arrest was captured live on stream by both Ethan Ralph and an anonymous onlooker. Surprisingly, given Chris's past history with the law, he made no attempt to resist arrest, and was co-operative with police.

As of writing, Chris is currently being held at the Central Virginia Regional Jail and is currently awaiting trial for the charge of incest, as well as further charges yet to be identified. He was arraigned on 5 August 2021 and held without bond pending a mental health evaluation until 16 September, likely making matters worse by interrupting the court proceedings to beg for his toys, and stamping his feet.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we got him."

Following Chris's expulsion from his home, Son-chu was located at the Regency Inn in Richmond, confirming that Chris was in the city and that he would be spending time in a motel.. The next day (1 August), a number of people attempted, or said they would attempt, to contact Chris there. The most significant was YouTuber Ethan Ralph who, along with his fiancée and some friends, livestreamed themselves driving to the motel to meet Chris. They ordered a pizza in the hopes of luring him out and went about knocking on every door on the second floor. Chris did not answer the door and the group was told to leave by a motel employee. They went to Regency Mall across the street, while still streaming, to wait around and because it was suspected that Chris might be there if not in his room.

Later that afternoon, they were tipped off that four police cars had shown up at the motel and arrived back in time to see two Henrico County police officers perp-walking Chris down from his room. Ralph continued to film for a live audience of over 3,000 viewers while the police talked to Chris, occasionally yelling comments himself which Chris sometimes responded to. Unlike Chris's previous run-ins with the law, he remained mostly calm and compliant during the arrest, though he rambled about the Dimensional Merge to both the police and Ralph's crew. The police then loaded Chris into a squad car and left without answering Ralph's questions. An additional PoV shot was filmed by an anonymous onlooker, showing Chris climbing directly into the cop car.

Jail

Chris's second mugshot on 2 August when transferred to Central Virginia Regional Jail.

On arrest, Chris was originally planned to be held without bail at Henrico County Jail West. On 2 August 2021, the Charlottesville CBS affiliate, CBS 19, reported on the case, following the release of a press release from the Greene County Sheriff's Department indicating that Chris had been moved to Central Virginia Regional Jail. Calls to the Sheriff's Office have confirmed that he is being held on a charge of incest. Originally, Chris was going to be transferred to a female prison (the Sheriff's Office website gives his gender as female), but after uproar from his new exposure, it was decided he would be tried as a male adult instead. It is noted that transgender inmates in Virginia are usually only placed in the prison of their identified gender if they have received sex-change surgery, which Chris has not.

Of note is that the charge against Chris is listed on the Henrico Sheriff's Office website as "incest with own child or grandchild", presumably because "incest with own parent" charges are too uncommon to warrant an option for them in the software.

First court appearance

On 5 August 2021, Chris appeared before the court for the beginning of his arraignment. The proceedings were documented by the Greene County Record newspaper.

According to the journalist, Charlottesville attorney David Heilberg was appointed Chris' public defender. The attorney representing Greene County asked presiding judge David M. Barredo to deny Chris bond out of concern for "the community's safety and Ms. Chandler's safety." Chris reportedly interrupted the proceedings multiple times. He was chided by his attorney for shouting "I'm famous on the internet." He was sworn in to state his case for bond, but wasted his opportunity to speak by implying that he would accept anything if he could retrieve his possessions from his home.

Judge Barredo ordered Chris to be held without bond until the preliminary trial on 16 September, believing there was danger to both society and Chris. While Heilberg was informing the judge that he sought "evaluations" of Chris, Chris interrupted his own attorney by loudly stomping on the floor and begging again for his items at home.

From Chris' reported behavior in the courtroom, it is easy to believe that Chris either does not fully understand or care about the seriousness of his charges and the possible consequences, or that he still expects to be saved by the Dimensional Merge. It remains to be known how he is coping in jail.

On 7 August 2021, Tucker Carlson briefly talked about Chris's case in a Fox News segment.

Second court appearance

Chris's next court appearance is due on the 16 September 2021.
