Christine Weston Chandler, known to the internet as "Chris-Chan", may possibly be the single most documented human being to ever exist.  
 
Their antics have led to the creation of whole communities within the internet "Counter-Culture".
 
They have also been known to attend conventions in the past and engage in the sort of behavior we like to document.

== Current Status ==
 
In 2021, Christine Chandler was arrested by local police and then charged with multiple crimes, notably sexual assault and incest, believed to be committed against their biological mother, Barbara Chandler.
 
In early 2023, very likely due to what could be considered an excessive pre-trial detention that included some time in a medical unit for psychiatric evaluation, Christine was released pending another hearing on 08/09/2023. It was believed that the judge and District Attorney overseeing Christine's case agreed to this as the maximum penalty under the law for what Christine was charged with was 10 years, which could easily be argued down to "Time Served and Probation" due to the fact that Christine had been detained for over 2 years without being charged with a crime.
 
On August 9th, 2023, the court decided to dismiss all charges against Christine and release them from detainment as soon as possible. Based on social media activity from Christine, it is believed that they have already been released.
 
There are probably numerous factors that led to this outcome, and others who dedicate their time to over-analyzing every little thing that Christine does will very likely enlighten all of us shortly.

As of 08/09/2023, Christine's court case has been dismissed and they are now free. It is unknown what their living situation and plans are, and given the nature and purpose of this organization and the website we control, such things are not really our concern.
 
We do not believe that Christine should be permitted to attend conventions, given both the nature of their demeanor and what they have been accused of. However, we also recognize that this person and their orbiting "fan club" thrive on negative attention, so public denouncement of this person may not lead to positive outcomes.

It is solely as a result of Christine's well-known trait of oversharing that we know about any of this.
 
As a result, there is some semblance of doubt, even amongst those who are normally advocates of transgender rights and public advocacy of progressive causes in general, as to how genuine this new identity could be.
