Fat Man Hopes To Sway Jury Of His Peers
To the frontiers of justice: "A Florida man accused of killing his son-in-law in New Jersey is arguing that he was unable to commit the crime because he was too fat." The unfortunately—or perhaps fortuitously, if you're his defense attorney—named Edward Ates will testify that his massive girth would have prevented him from running up and down a set of stairs where the murder occurred. "When the battered-wife defense was first used, it was considered abhorrent and bizarre. Jurors may be open to this in a society that talks about the infirmities that that obesity causes," says a noted trial lawyer. Okay!












This is just another permutation of the twinkie defense.
The Deep-fried Twinkie Defense.
For a minute there, I was wondering what Chris Christie was doing going in front of a jury.
This is a case for Vincent Gambini if I ever saw one.
Hate to nerd out here, but:
"Contrary to all appearances, most of [the Kingpin's] body mass is actually muscle that has been built to extraordinary size, much like a sumo wrestler and he is almost as strong as it is physically possible for an ordinary human to be. The Kingpin is a master of many forms of armed and unarmed combat, particularly sumo, jujutsu, and hapkido. He is an extraordinarily skilled martial artist, especially in sumo wrestling."
Slug = more apt

I hope they illustrate this scientifically for the jury in pictographs or pie charts.
Or just pies.
