If he is convicted he will also be place on a sexual predator list. Could even end up higher on the dangerousness list. He should think twice about a 15 year prison sentence. Don't imagine that he quite has the toughness for that kind of life.
If he is found guilty, he will spend all his time in a multi-acre facility with its own security force, working for low wages, wearing stripes, and eating lousy food.
Of course, if he is found innocent and returns to his job, he will spend all his time in a multi-acre facility with its own security force, working for low wages, wearing stripes, and eating lousy food.

i'm just curious, wouldn't the person TAKING THE PICTURE have noticed if Tigger was really fondling them, or just giving them a hug? I assume the person snapping the photo was the mother's husband/boyfriend, it would be pretty obvious whether or not "Tigger" was trying to get a squeeze in. They should have just poured coffee on their laps, quicker and higher pay, then again it would hurt.

heres the link to the not guilty verdict

It was probably a simple "she said, it said" case. Without more proof, the presumption of innocence would explain the verdict, despite the woman's claim.
Did you notice that the article says that defense attorney Jeffrey Kaufman also moonlights as Tigger? A jury of your peers is typical, but having an attorney with the same unusual job is really unusual!

Interesting also the jurors said that the verdict was due more to that it couldn't be proven who was in the suit. Either way, glad that the guy didn't take the plea bargin.

memory loss from dyslexia is pure bull**** i'm dyselxic and i have the best memory of anyone i know i remember stuff i did when i was 1 and a half.
dyselxia affects spelling, reading and writeing and the general recgnition or recitement of non-patternated language (or music for that matter)
it affects people in different ways like i can read very very well (at an adult level science i was 10) but my spelling and hadwriting are awfull i used to spell letteres wrong and write a b insteasd of d and vice versa.
both my parents are dyslexic and they overcame it by themselves, i still cant read my dads handwriting but thats probably because it's all squigley but most people who are dyslexic end to make up for it in some other way like my dad is really good at math and phisics and my mum was an artist (i am good at art phisics and maths ), it tends to be that dyslexic people make up for it in other departments.

I agree, overcoming just makes them stronger. My wife has done very well also. She is artistic and is good with math.
It's reasonable to be concerned that he might have gotten off only because he couldn't be proven guilty, whether or not he was innocent, but the law is the law, and for good reasons.
Maybe people will want to pose with him now because of his notoriety!

Having been in a "heavy" costume, I will say that it is hard to move in them.
The other thing is that charges took almost 2 months. No mention that Disney was contacted on the day of the event.
