They did actually, and Chris admitted to doing the deed; claiming in several letters and statements that he did it to “heal her through soulbonding”

Chris wasn’t let go because he didn’t do it. (he did)

Chris was let go because the punishment for misdemeanor incest in Virginia is about a year or two in prison. Chris kept having his trial delayed because they didn’t believe him to be competent to stand trial, forcing more tests… by the time the trial could begin, the charges were dropped because even in the (highly likely) chance he was found guilty, they’d have to let him go anyway because of “time served” (If you serve longer in jail waiting for your trial than what a guilty verdict would have given you, they consider your time already served), so it wasn’t worth a lengthy expensive trial when he wasn’t even going to be punished anyway.

Please do not spread false information about Chris
