May 2023
May is the fifth month of 2023 and the first month in which Chris has been seen in public since his arrest in August 2021.
Chris appears to be living in Chesterfield County, Virginia and keeping a low profile, although this has not stopped him from wearing his Sonichu medallion in public or from signing his name as "J. Christ Chan Sonichu". It is speculated that he may be living in a group home.
At the beginning of the month, Chris's hair was its natural brown color, but at some point between 3 May and 27 May he dyed it bright blue.
