Update


Chris had his "arraignment" on Friday. A few days before he went before the judge, Chris spent almost an hour on the phone with a lawyer getting advice (if anyone needs a lawyer, we can refer this guy!) After talking to the guy, Chris wasn't so worried about going to court and actually decided he didn't need his wifey to be by his side! He went to court (all dressed up and sexy as ever...) with a signed and notorized note from his friend explaining that it was his backpack that Chris had borrowed and that the brass knuckles were actually his (Mike could not appear in court, although he was totally willing, he had already made plans to go to Vegas for the weekend and left Thursday night. Chris was invited to go but he declined.) p.s. Chris was charged with a Class B misdemeanor and after all was said and done, Chris left court with 12 months probation and a $200 fine to be paid within 6 months. Chris does not have to report to a probation officer or anything like that, he just has to stay out of trouble with the law except minor traffic violations. PHEW big sigh of relief.

That same day Chris got a letter from National Homeland Security saying (not in these exact words) that he is clear for take off but to consider this his "warning" that he should fully check his bags before he flies again. That was the main concern for Chris, he really wants to travel a lot before he dies and he was freaking out that he would never be able to fly after the incident. Luckily he can. Just no more "concealed weapons" to try and sneak past security, Chris, Jeez, I keep telling you that!
