Near the end of June 2021, Chandler told some fans that he began an incestuous relationship with his mother Barbara (long speculated to be on a mental decline and therefore unable to consent) to a handful of fans. Chandler previously told his advisor who is the owner of the website Kiwi Joshua Moon, also known as Null that he'd found a boyfriend-free girl over the age of 50 who was an accountant years ago – details which match up with a description of who Barb is – leading Null to believe that Chandler actually found a girlfriend who he didn't want people to find out about before he eventually realized that Chandler molested his mother.

Following this horrifying revelation, the damage done to Chris was swift and immeasurable as Christine and Barbara were separated by authorities and Christine was arrested. From August 2021 to March 2022, he was incarcerated in Central Virginia Regional Jail without bond, but once been transferred to a facility that is currently undisclosed and became incarcerated again recently. As of July 2022, he is likely facing felony charges as the case has gone to a grand jury. | ||

While attending Piedmont Virginia Community College in 2003, Chandler chronicled his "Love Quest" in his own online diary, where he carried around a large sign that read "Seeking an 18-21-Year Old Single Female Companion," approaching women and asking for a date. After weeks of holding the sign on campus, the Dean of Students banned Chandler from using it while on school grounds, according to Chandler's edits on the CWCki. | While attending Piedmont Virginia Community College in 2003, Chandler chronicled his "Love Quest" in his own online diary, where he carried around a large sign that read "Seeking an 18-21-Year Old Single Female Companion," approaching women and asking for a date.

In 2011, Chandler's father Robert died of heart failure, devastating him. Another life-changing event would happen in 2014, when an extension cord fire burnt down the Chandler family home, Chandler would post about the fire on Facebook, sharing that he "lost our home and our memories." A CBS 19 report said that the house fire started around 3 a.m. and that it started in a first-floor bathroom. | In 2011, Chandler's father Robert died of heart failure, devastating him.

Financial burdens stemming from the house fire and debt accrued after the passing of Robert, as well as legal fees from the assault trial(see Other Arrests), caused Chandler to have to sell off belongings and create sculptures, comics, and art to be bought by fans on Patreon, | Financial burdens stemming from the house fire and debt accrued after the passing of Robert, as well as legal fees from the assault trial(see Other Arrests), caused Chandler to have to sell off belongings and create sculptures, comics, and art to be bought by fans on Patreon, eBay, and Etsy. | ||

On August 1, Chandler was arrested at a hotel in Richmond on charges of incest, with the arrest being live-streamed on YouTube. On Wednesday, Chandler was transferred to the Central Virginia Jail from Henrico County where he was being held. On Monday, the Henrico jail confirmed he was being held without bail and no court date had been established. It was reported that he was detained in the women's jail, however this was later determined to be false. On August 6, Chandler appeared in court, he requested that he be allowed to pick up his personal belongings, and upon being refused, angrily stamped his feet, claiming he would not feel safe without them. Chandler will be held without bond until his next court hearing, following grand jury hearings to determine felony charges. Starting from September 19, Chandler would begin to write letters from jail; One thing that remains consistent about all four of them is that he believes himself to be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. He also claimed in one of the letters that he was curing his mother from all her "past sins and regrets" by committing incest with her. Chandler even states in multiple letters that he will be released soon, when this is clearly unlikely at this point since he continues to be held without bail. | On August 1, Chandler was arrested at a hotel in Richmond on charges of incest, with the arrest being live-streamed on YouTube.

Shortly after the initial post, it was discovered that the other person in the calls and texts was [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], a 20-year old college student who had blackmailed other people online. Further searching led to the discovery that this call was part of a plan to blackmail Chandler, possibly into suicide or self-harm. This is a sharp contrast from other groups and individuals that trolled Chandler in the past, as they were merely doing so for their own amusement. | Shortly after the initial post, it was discovered that the other person in the calls and texts was [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], a 20-year-old college student who had blackmailed other people online.

In February 2022 Chandler was transferred to Western State Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Staunton, Virginia and returned to CVRJ in May. He had been transferred there to be restored to competency so he could stand trial or plead guilty. While there, he had some sort of outburst and had to be restrained, which he compared to a similar incident from elementary school (even claiming in a letter that it gave him PTSD to that incident). | In February 2022 Chandler was transferred to Western State Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Staunton, Virginia and returned to CVRJ in May.

There has been a large debate around Chandler's gender identity.

As Chandler's ideas about the world were influenced by the media he consumed, especially films and TV shows aimed at children, it is believed this is part of his misunderstanding of what it means to be either a man or a woman. When he identified as a male he based his personality on tough guy stereotypes seen in cartoons. His ideas about women also come from his consumption of media, which is evident in the Sonichu comics, as the female characters in those are depicted as stereotypes of women from cartoons. In one issue Sonichu had to accompany his girlfriend Rosechu to the mall where she goes on a shopping spree, in another she is kidnapped, becoming a damsel in distress and Sonichu has to save her. These are common stereotypes of women in cartoons. In another comic, a female character states stereotypes of boys from cartoons, such as never being sad and only liking gross things and being violent. | ||
Chandler also made the decision to transition because a troll suggested that he should become a transwoman to try and attract lesbians, which is unlike other trans people, who transition because they feel that they were born into the gender identity they ultimately express themselves as. Chandler also believes that the 3 names he's had throughout his life, Christopher, Christian and Christine are 3 different personalities he's had throughout his life, as well as being able to jump between them and have different ones possess his body at different times. | |||
Chandler has even gone as far as to say that he believes to be the reincarnation of a woman in the 1960s attending Woodstock, as well as thousands of years ago he was an important alien princess from a different galaxy exiled from her home planet, calling himself a female soul. This was based on a dream he had. Chandler has never shown any indication of dysphoria or gender questioning, typical things trans people have gone through. | |||

There was also how through a large part of 2020 Chandler claimed to be possessed by Sonichu rather than one of his female characters, having no trouble being male for a good chunk of the year. Furthermore, while he is currently in Jail, Chandler is claiming to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ. | There was also how through a large part of 2020 Chandler claimed to be possessed by Sonichu rather than one of his female characters, having no trouble being male for a good chunk of the year.

Many people say that because Chandler identifies as a woman then his pronouns should be respected, however, others refute this due to how Chandler is generally agreed to be delusional and people should not accept someone's identity at face value. | |||
It is also worth mentioning that many members of the trans and LGBT Community don't want to be associated with Chandler, saying he makes them look bad, as well as the degrading comments he made about them when he identified as male. Since Chandler is said to have the mind of a child, people believe it was easier for him to try and become a woman, rather than accept he failed to become a man. | |||
