Hasbro Internal Investigation Report Regarding Incident Date of Incident: 9/25/10 Time of Incident: 12:00 p.m. Location of Incident: Beverly Center Mall 8500 Beverly Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90048. Meet the "My Little Pony" Characters Event. Person(s) involved: Catherin Wilson. (Missing) Person writing the report: Donna Nixon. Hasbro H/R-Legal Summary of incident: On Saturday September 25, 2010 at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles, CA. Hasbro Marketing had prepared for a meet and greet of "My Little Pony" characters in promotion for their October 10, 2010 premier. Six actors and actress were hired to be in costume for the event. (See attached list.) The meet and greet was supposed to last from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the afternoon, followed by another event the next day. After the incident all future events have been cancelled. Five of the six main characters exited the dressing room and proceeded to the stage except for Fluttershy who was to be played by Catherin Wilson. She was the last to exit the dressing room. Problems arose from the start that included an unusual odor and the assault of several guests. 911 was called at some point after the actress was escorted from the stage. She was hospitalized shortly thereafter (See Darryl Castle's attached witness report.)... Witness Description of Incident: On Saturday September 25, 2010 I, Darryl Castle, was tasked with escorting the characters out from their dressing room onto the stage at the Beverly Center Mall. Miss Catherin Wilson (actress hired to play Fluttershy.) was the last to arrive on stage. Already it was apparent that something was wrong. Ms. Wilson appeared to be intoxicated. She was walking in an abnormal way and unable to travel in a straight line. When asked if she was okay she merely nodded and proceeded forward. I also noted that her costume was filthy. Dark stains were all over the Fluttershy costume with her eyes blacked out. There was a strange smell emanating from inside of it. At first it smelled like bile and when her legs briefly collapsed under her they seemed squishy. Once again I asked Ms. Wilson if she was able to continue. Once again she nodded insisting that she would be able to perform her duties. I let her go on-stage and called wardrobe for the spare Fluttershy costume we had in storage for emergencies to be brought out for her to change into after the first set. When they entered the stage set up for the meet and greet all the characters went to their preset locations except for Ms. Wilson (Fluttershy) who continued to act in a strange way. She refused to stay in her area and kept moving around to the other character locations. More noticeably was how she interacted to the kids. Most of the children in attendance wanted nothing to do with the Fluttershy character. They constantly shied away from Ms. Wilson when she approached them. Some of the younger ones began to cry hysterically when she got close to them. None of the other characters had this problem as there were reasonably long lines for the other five. When a few of the children got up the nerve to actually approach Fluttershy and pose for a picture Ms. Wilson started to act even stranger. She would grab them and hold them in a possessive manner. She would then begin to act as if she were going to devour said child, opening the costume’s mouth wide enough for her to potentially swallow said child. At which point the child would begin crying and I would have to drag the child away from her back to their parents. At this time I need to point out that the smell from the Fluttershy costume had gotten even stronger and more noticeable. It now wasn’t so much bile as it was the smell of rotting meat. It was quite strong with guests visibly retching whenever she got close enough. In one incident Fluttershy (Wilson) was clearly upset when a little girl refused to get close to her as she avoided Fluttershy and walked back to her parents. Fluttershy proceeded to follow her out from the stage and onto the floor still with that strange walk and visibility tried to force the girl back to the stage. It was apparent that the girl was frightened by Ms. Wilson’s actions. It was then I approached the actress. I placed my hand on her shoulder in an attempt to direct her back on to the stage. When I did so I noticed that the costume was squishy. It was as if there wasn’t anything solid within the costume. Whatever it was that Ms. Wilson put into her Fluttershy costume it leaked through the fabric on to my hand as I continued to direct her to the stage. It was black, cold and stung on contact. At this point I radioed security and had them escort the other actors to the dressing room and to call 911 and a HASMAT team to deal with the potentially dangerous substance that leaked from the costume. The longer I stayed with Fluttershy/Wilson I felt uneasy. It was as if a visceral pure rage began to emanate from the costume. She was beginning to terrify me. Even so, I stayed with her, keeping her separate from the other actors until the last one of them had entered the dressing room. When the last actor entered the dressing room I asked one of the security guards, Roger Halsted, to keep an eye on Ms. Wilson while I checked on the other actors. Upon entering the dressing room I noticed two of the Beverly Center Mall maintenance workers trying to enter the door to the mop room. Initially I paid them no mind and asked the actors if they had noticed anything bizarre about Ms. Wilson before they were to change into their costumes. They said that Ms. Wilson was already in costume when they entered. It was at this point the mall manager entered the dressing room to unlock the mop room. When he did and the door opened he screamed, “Jesus,” in alarm which caught my attention. I ran to the mop room and inside was Ms. Wilson naked and bleeding from her right hand, four of her finger nails missing from scratching her hand across the wall. In her own blood she had written as follows: Their are too many Fluttershy's they wont let me breath! Their are too many Fluttershy's they won't let me think! The Fluttershy's hate me! The Fluttershy's hate me! The Fluttershy's are laughing at me! After that the words become incomprehensible to read.(See attached photos.) It was then that we all heard the scream coming from the hallway. It was Halsted. His scream was followed by the screams of several of the actors who had run to the door to see what was going on and were now in full retreat from the doorway. I quickly made my way to the hall where I gagged at both what I saw and smelled. Lying in the hall way was the lower half of Halsted. It was almost as if his upper torso had been melted away. Next to him lay the stained and discarded Fluttershy costume. The putrid smell of rot and death quickly enveloped the hall and I ordered an evacuation. Once outside we met with the paramedics who treated me for minor burns to my hand where the black goo had touched it. Ms. Wilson, who was babbling incoherently, was taken to the hospital for treatment and observation. Cont. of Main Report: We agree with Mr. Castle’s initial assumption that Ms. Catherin Wilson had taken some illegal drug and was intoxicated. We believe that it was a type of airborne psychotropic drug that ultimately affected her the most severely and everyone else in the mall to a much lesser degree causing hallucinations. We believe that Ms. Wilson had arrived early and released said drug while in the mop closet and then changed into her costume. By the time the others arrived on scene it the toxin had permeated the air within the mall. Due to Ms. Wilson’s longer exposure to it her reaction was much more severe. How she wound up in the closet is questionable. We can assume that perhaps the others had simply not noticed her locking herself in it and were beginning to suffer the effects of the drug. This would explain the lack of the previously mentioned body of security guard Roger Halsted and the lack of any black fluid at the scene. The suit, which did smell awful, was incinerated at the close of the initial investigation. Ms. Catherin Wilson, who was committed at Brothman Memorial Hospital’s psychiatric wing, disappeared two weeks after the fact. Federal and local authorities have been informed and she appears on the “No Fly” list as we speak. We do not expect to hear from her again, however, we have told security to keep their eyes open for her. Addendum: It is unknown at this time who is responsible for inflating all of those yellow balloons with the pink butterflies and rabbit designs in the room of Ms. Wilson. Nor is it clear who left the Fluttershy doll with its eyes blacked out in her room as well. We will have to conduct an internal investigation into who might be responsible for such actions and speak with our manufacturers in China. These dolls aren’t supposed to be on the market yet and the fact that one of them showed up in a mental hospital is clearly a violation of our marketing and product policies. When found the employee or employees should be terminated immediately to prevent further violations.
