'Tigger' will return to his job at Disney

The suspended Disney worker at the center of the Tigger trial was given his job back Friday and will likely return to playing costumed characters at Walt Disney World by the end of the month.

But the worker, Michael C. Chartrand, will not don a Tigger suit anytime soon, his attorney Jeffrey Kaufman said.

"Even though he loved playing Tigger, the suit is a constant reminder of the whole ordeal," he said.

Chartrand had been suspended without pay since early April, when he was arrested and charged with groping a 13-year-old girl while portraying Tigger at the Magic Kingdom. On Wednesday night, an Orange County jury acquitted him of those charges.
