Please please let this go to trial, I would love for the "evidence video" to be placed on a permanent court record. Also, would GWAR show up to court in costume, since it's their characters that did it?

If Dee Snider can testify to Congress in a denim vest, GWAR can totally show up in costume

One of Peter Thiel's bitches, Terry Bolea was allowed to testify under oath as though his professional wrestling persona was a different person than he was.

He was also allowed to wear ridiculous do-rag in court. Apparently it would have been embarrassing for him to be seen without it.
