Actually by law there has to be a transcript of every court session. So there is an official word by word recount of the court sessions and it's available to any citizen of the U.S. for a nominal fee of $45.

No there doesn't, and that in fact doesn't happen. The vast majority of court hearings occur with only an audio recording and sometimes not even that. It's not all that uncommon even when a recording is kept for it to be nearly useless and half inaudible.

The main reason a transcript is made is if the matter is subject to an appeal, when a transcript is useful because it can be cited by page and line number in briefs and such.

It's especially unlikely for transcripts to be made of routine procedural events like mass arraignments where virtually nothing of substance even happens.

A plea of guilty is usually at least going to be recorded, because it's the official record of the actual important event in resolving the case, but that recording is going to be kept for as long as legally required and possibly not much longer than that. I'd be surprised if even a recording of Chris's old case still exists.

But you have to go to the courthouse itself and use your ID to request the copy.

Actually, if you want a hearing that isn't transcribed, you'll have to pay to have the original transcript made, not just for a copy. Subsequent people only have to pay for a copy.

ETA: Also where's that $45 figure from? No transcript that doesn't already exist is going to cost anything near that cheap.
 
Sorry dude but any criminal cases has to have a court reporter and a transcript, thats a requirement of process. And Chunky cases was criminal wasn't it? (I'm actually not sure if it was or wasn't)

It might be true that some civil cases lack this but I doubt it.

The fee is on the courthouse web-page: $2 per page up to a max of $40.

You have to fill out the request form and present valid ID and pay the fee. It be cake.

Felony type 6 if i remember correctly.

If you or me did the same thing we'd go to prison for a year.

But as I pointed out, it's difficult to get a meaningful picture of Chris' expenditures from a random gift card. Thus you failed in your goal.

OK, fair enough.

Here's what I don't get. Chris's begging has increased a lot lately. That takes effort, and Chris is notoriously lazy. Chris clearly wants something. However, the things Chris asks for are often not things that Chris would actually buy (eg that rubber china).

Most of the begging is just lies. Chris has no real intention of paying that court cost until the last day. It's just an excuse to ask for money. So where is the money really going? I would guess vidya, but I don't really know.

I think a big chunk of it is that Chris sees the opportunity to get more money. So he's taking. It's not necessarily going towards a need.

Of course, it could be going towards a need. Maybe the debtors are knocking on Chris' door a bit more nowadays? Maybe Chris just wants more money? It's hard to tell.

I think Chris doesn't even know himself. Chris spends the money broadly over the course of the month. Chris spends money, daily, on sheetz and mcdonalds. And he also buys lego sets every week or so. Chris just notices that each month is more comfortable if he begs a bit more on youtube, or if he makes some new amiibo products to hock to his "trolls". I think that's about the extent of Chris' impression of the situation.

If I did something that stupid, I wouldn't confess to it on facebook. I'd also have the sense to stay away from GameStop until they forgot about me. And I probably wouldn't have gotten arrested anyway since the jerkops wouldn't recognize me.

But Chris is special.
 
Well it's certainly reassuring that members of this site have more street smarts than a guy who thought Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a documentary.

Well, something changed. Chris's begging last year wasn't nearly as outrageous, and even acknowledged the joke gifts. Sure, Chris asked for legos, but not a huge wish list spanning several pages and totalling many thousand dollars. This year was just ridiculous.

He's learning that if he begs, he can actually get results. That's just going to make him beg more.

Thats what always sorta fucks me with Chris, how he never owns up to his own stupid shit. Its always someone elses fault.

If I were to piss against my neighbors Mercedes, he loves that car, he would rip my damn near 7 incher off. I wouldn't then go and try to make my neighbor out to be the bad guy to people. I'd look to myself and think "well maybe it was a stupid idea doing that".

I know its beating a dead horse but God damn what would it take for Chris to finally take ownership in to the retarded shit he's done?
 
a new year, a new start! 2014 began and ended with a bang, giving us a wacky 2015 full of personal growth*! how will 2016 treat our hero? :heart-full:

*you know what i mean by perrsonal growth
 
Unlike last time, Barb wasn't involved so it's all up to only Chris to pay off the court costs and fines. No insurance money from Barb this time.

BTW, I wonder why Chris hasn't made a new video to show off all the loot that his fans sent him? Hmmmmmm.......

Chunky is still mentally a child really. Most children don't develop a sense of personal responibilty until much later in life. Chris just never quite got to that point. Plus he never really had my h empathy to start with being a massive Autist and all so the idea of right and wrong still boils down to his personal feelings on the matter

Ie: if Chunky wants to do something then that's pretty much all the moral imperative he needs. If it feels good it's right, if it makes him feel bad it's wrong.

He was very close to him, in his own autistic way, and his death fucked Chris up.

This, apparently, is the moral maxim in which the community now operates.
And, apparently, also implies that Chris is the only person who was ever close to a parent and who got fucked up by his death.

I'm surprised the unwanted gifts haven't shown up on ebay.

Maybe Chris needs to learn something else. I might be willing to indulge a few of those requests if Chris was less obnoxious about it.
