Multiple continuances. Some people think it's his lawyer's legal strategy because time served is more valuable than actual time in jail after sentencing. It could also be just his uncorporation due to the 'tism. CWC has not yet even had a trial yet.
Some lawyercel said he actually lucked out (again) and got a pretty good public defender because he had to get a real criminal lawyer due to his town not having enough public defenders available.
He's been out for several months, but he was held for over 2 years. It's widely believed that he lives in an assisted living facility for the slow in the minds. I don't think it's been truly confirmed.
This is taking forever, why are there so many continuances? Doesn't Chris have the right to a speedy trial?
Chris has the right to a speedy trial, but he does not have to exercise that right. The continuances are at the request of the defense, thus the right to a speedy trial does not apply.
As for the reason for the continuances, we do not know. We know that the first continuance was to arrange for a psychological evaluation of Chris, but beyond that the hearings were closed, so it's uncertain, and anything beyond this is speculation.
Common reasons for delays are obtaining more relevant evidence, documentation, etc., as well as more time to negotiate a plea agreement, thus avoiding a trial entirely.
As the writer of this FAQ, I will interject with the speculation that the purpose is to increase the amount of pre-conviction time Chris has spent in jail, letting him serve more time with fewer financial consequences (such as losing his tugboat temporarily) in a safe environment. If a final plea agreement stays in J&DR court, a maximum misdemeanor sentence of 12 months in jail would allow to prosecution to claim that they gave Chris the maximum sentence allowed by the court, while making the defense happy in that Chris is left with the best possible starting point for what is to come.
Others have speculated that it is to allow time to find Chris placement in an assisted living program to meet the needs of his poor mental health, thus reducing the risk of him reoffending.

Wait, he was held in jail for 2 years without ever being sentenced? I'm not sure how that's possible.

From what I remember that was the case. His county hires lawyers on a case-by-case basis, so you can actually get a good, established lawyer for free.

The right to a speedy trial is just kind of ignored since it has nothing to do with partisan politics
