I hope it goes to trial and doesn’t plead out. Think of the lolcow roundup of witnesses and character references. Josh and Ethan could even weigh-in in front of a real judge!

Pleading insanity isn't the cut-and-dry defense that you think it is. Plenty of autists and retards go to REAL prison, despite being recognized brainlets by the state. It's about whether or not the defendant was cognizant at the time of the crime, meaning were they aware of their actions and lucid when the crime was committed? In this case the answer appears to be yes, Chris was fully aware that he was forcing himself on Barb and then went on to brag about it. That doesn't sound like a slamdunk insanity plea to me.

Yeah, Chris is crazy but not legally crazy. He understands the difference between right and wrong. He took steps to cover up his crime (so, so, so poorly). That all looks like a full meal for prosecutors.

So are we expecting Null to give information on the $750 that Chris stole from Barb since he manages Chris email?

most likely he will be suponead to court to testify for the stole money.
Which will lead to final battle of DIo VS Jotaro.
NULL vs The Gunt
 
If this does go to trial, I wonder if there will be detailed news coverage of the trial. You know -- day-by-day coverage rather than just an article when proceedings begin and then another article once a verdict and sentencing is determined.

Where can I see those "pending charges" list? There's nothing like that on the Henrico sheriff website.

So far, the only posted charge is the incest charge he was booked on. It will probably be awhile for new charges to be posted.

Also, the Henrico sheriff's website seems to be down right now, likely due to a huge spike in web traffic:

Law in Question:

It's a felony at the minimum.

You can't see them, they are pending. But given the circumstances, that means he's getting pinched for something more than just the incest. It could be a violation of the EPO, but if that were the only additional charge then I think that it would have already happened. That pretty much only leaves rape.
