I doubt this will be a popular opinion, but I hope he gets sentenced to be a weekend warrior for a few months. It's when you're given x number of days in jail, but you can come in on just Saturdays and Sundays to serve your time (I was offered this when I was issued a warrant for failure to appear on a traffic ticket. Since Chris's crime was violent, this may not even be an option for him. Or maybe it's something specific to my state.) Generally, they clean the jail and court house, wash the police cars, and rake the yard,, and go sweep city streets and stuff in jump suits and ankle shackles. Menial jobs that someone has to do, but why hire a janitor and a lawns keeper when you can have someone do it for free. I think it would humiliate him enough over an extended enough period that he might really learn his actions have consequences.
On a real note, I also hope he gets counseling again and takes it seriously this time. His anger despite him identifying as a kind lesbian soul with a bent duck clash completely, and it would do him good to come to terms with his temper as it relates to his gender.
