Dressing up as a beloved cartoon character comes with a lot of responsibility. You have a certain image to uphold since you are pretty much seen as a god to children everywhere. Apparently, all of the people on this list didn't get the memo. Here are some "cartoon characters" who got involved in some pretty messed up stuff.

Perp: Mickey Mouse
Crime: Forging cough syrup prescriptions
What Went Down: Who knew Micky was into sizzurp? Mickey Mouse, or at least a woman donning Mickey Mouse scrubs, was arrested in California for forging 20 prescriptions of a narcotic cough syrup in hopes to sell it. She'd come into the pharmacy dressed as the famous Disney character and purchase fixings for purple drank. She was held on $1 million bail this year.

Perp: Pluto
Crime: Murder
What Went Down: Pluto was an accessory to murder. The beloved character and other Magic Kingdom employees went out one night in 1995 and attempted to steal Larry Oliver's red pickup truck, killing him with repeated shotgun blasts in the process. A camera caught the sociopathic crew flashing gang signs and smoking blunts mere moments after the murder. Pluto's real name was Clarissa Wilburn, 19.

Perp: Goofy, Frosty the Snowman, Micky Mouse, & Minnie
Crime: Having fun?
What Went Down: Disneyland Paris drew ire in 2006 when members of the cast got freaky with each other during downtime. Minnie Mouse is practically being passed around like a bag of Oreos while Goofy, Frosty, and Mickey take turns grinding up on her. While this story caused international outrage, it's obvious the employees were just having a nonthreatening dry orgy. No one was arrested.

Perp: Donald Duck
Crime: Coping a feel
What Went Down: A 27-year-old alleges she was visiting Epcot with her fiancé and children when she sought a Donald Duck autograph. Mr. Duck grabbed her boob. He then threw his hands in the air as if to say "Oopsies!" She sued Disney for negligence, battery, and emotional distress.

Perp: Tigger
Crime: Molesting a 13-year-old
What Went Down: A mother and a daughter were taking pictures with Tigger at Disney World in 2004. Tigger then surreptitiously massaged the child's breast multiple times. When they left the park, the daughter told her mother what happened and mother said that Tigger did the same to her. Police charged him with one count of lewd and lascivious molestation of a child and one count of battery. Winnie wasn't available for comment.

Perp: Winnie the Pooh
Crime: Stabbing
What Went Down: The New York Times reported in January of a fatal stabbing in an NYC deli. The perpetrator, Winnie, was caught on camera. "The argument was about beer," fellow Times Square costumed character Elmo said. Two aspects of this story make it special: 1) The stabbing, 2) The fact that beneath those furry exteriors lie raging alcoholic clowns.

Perp: Captain America
Crime: Asking a woman to "touch the burrito in his pants"
What Went Down: A Florida doctor dressed as Captain America stuffed a burrito down his pants during a pub crawl in 2007. He asked a woman if she wanted to touch the burrito in his pants. She obviously refused, so he took the only logical action he could take - he groped her. Police found him trying to flush a pot joint down the toilet, and he was arrested for battery, disorderly conduct, drug possession, and trying to destroy evidence. They later found the offending burrito within his boot.

Perp: Elmo
Crime: Extortion
What Went Down: He was once arrested for shouting antisemitic slurs at little girls. In late 2013, he was arrested for trying to extort $2 million from the Girl Scouts of America. The man goes by the name Adam Sandler, which is weird because Adam Sandler is Jewish.

Perp: Goofy
Crime: Child porn
What Went Down: In February 2007, police charged Goofy with 51 felony counts of child pornography. Real name? Matthew Wendland, 20. His roommates tipped off the police and Goofy was arrested after finding more than 1,000 images of naked children in his room. He'd been employed by Epcot for months. It seems Goofy's anthropomorphism extends to the worst human behaviors.
