It gets weirder. Disney has suugested that the Tigger costume be dyed black or white and its ears be removed when in court to protect the image.
Moreover, the defendant's lawyer has also played Tigger at Disney, and works part-time as a costumed character at the theme park. He said he reached out to Chartrand because he thought he was uniquely qualified to defend him. (By playing Tigger I assume, not for being a part-time puppet/part-time attorney)
Prosecutors hope to use as evidence about 200 photographs of tourists posing with Tigger and other characters. But the defense claims there's no way to prove Chartrand was in all the photos.
The defense also expects jurors to take the costume with them during deliberations where they can handle it and put on the mask and gloves, by which they might realize how difficult it would be to grope a young girl.

A friend of mine was groped by Frontier Goofy at Disney Land a few years back. The picture was hysterical. She was more amused than upset by it.
