Future of the House

She ratted her own son out, which really, did anyone expect less out of Barbara Ann Weston?

“Chris raped me” doesn’t fall under “ratting her own son out.” Familial loyalty is out the window at that point.

True. But Barb was never loyal to begin with. It's basically SOP for her.

 

[Jon Osterman]

Chris already knows their address. He was on his way to stay with them after he was told he could no longer stay at 14BC while the rape was being investigated.

I don't see why if Chris knew where they lived, we'd never hear about him going over there for whatever reason, maybe to celebrate a birthday or beg for money. Maybe when he learned their address right when he asked to stay there. The CWCki could easily be wrong too.

 

[AnOminous]

I could go either way on this. Would the family care to tell him they’ve cleaned up? Or would they leave him where he is to imagine what he likes? “Your mom has been in an accident, we’re taking care of her, leave her alone” is an important message he needs to hear. “We’ve thrown out the hoard” might not be, from their perspective.

I don't see why they'd bother, even if they know he'd shit himself in rage, other than maybe breaking it to him when he gets out of jail and is in a tard home and starts screeching and demanding things.

It's funny, for all that 'meditating' Chris has done behind bars, he's the same greasy, fat-headed, single-minded materialistic motherfucker he always has been. The first thing on his mind would be his stuff, and not "How's Barb?", and yes, Chris, at 40 would still screech for his toys.

Yeah, I doubt they'll even talk to him anymore. They called the police to tell them that Chris wasn't welcome on their property after finding out what he did, and Chris has just assumed they were making the drive to help out Barb. I'm sure the "scary voicemail" Chris left them when he was fuming over being dis-invited didn't help either. We learned pretty late in Chris's jail stint that Barb was barely talking to Chris at all through the whole incarceration. While that junk is Chris's, if he's put away for a long time, I doubt they're going to even talk to him about it and just trash it.

He's effectively abandoned it. Just because you get thrown in jail for raping your mom doesn't mean she has to keep around your piles of garbage instead of chucking them to make room for her own piles of garbage. He's had plenty of time even in jail to make some calls and hire someone to move it into a self-storage place, and unless he went and lost his tard bucks, he should have still had those for at least part/most of his stay.

Chris is an idiot who's confident he'll get out with no punishment and an apology from the whole court. He either didn't think to do that, or thought there'd be no need because he'll be back soon enough to keep it from getting tossed.

Is there any case law on this sort of thing? I can see some dick who's been in prison for spousal abuse suing his ex for dumping his crap, or a landlord getting sued for throwing out someone possessions after they have been in jail for a while.

Yes but it's not going to be local to Virginia. Occasionally there's a "news of the weird" story about some asshole suing his parents for throwing out his junk after he left. Usually they lose. Sometimes they don't.

I couldn't find anything conclusive other than if his stuff is considered legally abandoned he can't sue. I would assume it's not considered abandoned because he didn't willingly leave it in 14BC, so maybe Chris could actually sue if they toss it.

It would be ridiculous if you were obligated to keep your house full of someone else's junk just because they went to prison, meaning you couldn't rent it out to anyone else, ever, or else pay out of pocket from your own money to store it indefinitely. At some point, Chris had an obligation to figure out his own shit, jail or no jail.

ETA: after a bit of casual reading, apparently the gold standard for this is to put the person on notice and try to get an actual signature on something saying they've vacated the property, and in some cases, actually institute formal eviction proceedings. Unless there are explicit laws, though, with time limits, it's generally going to be judged on a reasonable person standard. For instance, you couldn't just throw out their stuff if they were still paying rent despite being in jail, or had already paid rent.

Now, this being Barb, I think she'd just do it if she felt like it or, more to the point, pay someone to haul it off. And nothing would happen to her but it might if she had a slightly smarter, more spiteful tard as a son.

Sad part is that Chris will continue to be delusional that his stuff will still be there and he will continue to stay at 14BLC. The guy doesn't know how to plan, and I doubt he can afford to pay for a moving truck along with a storage unit. The only obligation Chris has to to shit himself.

I’m not 100% sure about that. His drawing of 14bc being moved to Cwcville might be an attempt at cope.

Actually, the current silence could be because he got firmly smacked in the face with the fact* that he wasn’t going back and his shit was gone. He could have collapsed into slumber over it.
*(assuming this to be fact)

The guy doesn't know how to plan, and I doubt he can afford to pay for a moving truck along with a storage unit.

It depends on his tugboat status and the largesse of his family. But I agree, he’s probably just fallen back on his old defecation and idleness standby.

I would wager that all his shit is but a distant memory these days. We all thought he'd be going out of his mind because he couldn't eat McDonalds, or that he couldn't watch his cartoon shows, or even that he couldn't play with Legos, but all we heard from his letters was that he missed playing Tetris or some other video game. He seems concerned about losing the house, but that might just be because it was his home.

Being put in a sterile jail cell, with the bible, a radio, deck of cards and some little rugs, and he seems happy enough to day dream all day, only really wanting to get out so he could start his cult. I imagine that would disappear once he got back into his routine more and more.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Just like the original cabin from the first Evil Dead movie the only way anybody in that neighborhood will get any semblance of peace is if it burns to the ground, but even then people would come to see it.

I don't know I think it's a bit hard to say if Chris will be fine if his stuff is gone. Sure he has new stuff, but he could also be expecting that when he gets back, he can return to his old stuff that while he obviously doesn't use for much, still is his cherished stuff that he threw a fit over not having (remember he definitely has some hoarder mentalities). I'm not saying that he will definitely have a tantrum, only that we don't really know.

I can’t imagine Chris will take it well if his original Sonichu drawings or other sentimental things have thrown out.

 

[Ophelia]

He threw a fit when Barb tried to trash some of his junk, including shit that had been damaged in the fire (cwcki). So there’s precedent.

He won't be. He'll throw an absolute shit-fit. He might even chimp so hard he gets immediately re-arrested.
