So I re-read the original thread, and there is a possibility if Chris is convicted on an incest charge (but no other charges such as abuse of an elderly / disabled person or sexual assault), that it could be downgraded to a misdemeanor.
(The incest charge is a Class 5 felony minimum, but it can end up being a misdemeanor based on how the court decides to treat the conviction):
"Class 5 felonies are “wobblers,” crimes that can be either a felony or a misdemeanor, depending on how the crime is charged and, sometimes, how the judge or jury decides to treat a conviction. Class 5 felonies in Virginia are punishable by: 1 to 10 years in prison (when the conviction is a felony), or up to 12 months in jail and a fine of $2,500 (misdemeanor)." (Source)
