A Cincinnati judge delayed a misdemeanor criminal damage trial because he found the defendant’s “Chucky” T-shirt inappropriate for court. Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Bernie Bouchard told William Morse, 28, Monday that his T-shirt featuring the killer doll from the “Child’s Play” films – bearing the tag line “Say goodbye to the killer” – was not appropriate court attire. When Morse told the judge he had just woken up prior to the 11 a.m. court appearance, the judge said he could have spent “5 minutes” picking out a more appropriate wardrobe. The trial was delayed and Morse was told he would be held in contempt of court if he was not properly dressed for the occasion the next time he appears in court.
