‘Fondling’ Disney Tigger acquitted

‘Fondling’ Disney Tigger acquitted

ORLANDO, Florida – A Walt Disney World worker who was acquitted of charges he fondled a 13-year-old girl while dressed as Tigger says he wants to return to work, but not as a Disney character.

Wednesday’s acquittal came less than an hour following a three-day trial during which the defence attorney for Michael Chartrand donned a Tigger costume in an effort to show jurors how difficult it is to maneuver and see in the outfit. The defence contended that the girl’s mother was merely after money and planned to sue Disney.The mother also claimed Tigger touched her breast during the visit to Disney World last February, although no criminal charges followed her allegation.Under questioning from Kaufman, the mother conceded that she had met with a lawyer about the case.But asked if she thought she could make a lot of money from Disney, she told Kaufman, “No, I didn’t.”- Nampa-APThe defence contended that the girl’s mother was merely after money and planned to sue Disney.The mother also claimed Tigger touched her breast during the visit to Disney World last February, although no criminal charges followed her allegation.Under questioning from Kaufman, the mother conceded that she had met with a lawyer about the case.But asked if she thought she could make a lot of money from Disney, she told Kaufman, “No, I didn’t.”- Nampa-AP
