Damn, I would have paid to see that.
If he's really not Houdini's grandson and can't effect an escape, perhaps he could be Jesus and walk through the walls. Otherwise, he's stuck singing "Jailhouse Rock".

If you're claiming to be Jesus and Elvis, why be just the grandson of Houdini? Why not go for full up Houdini? I'm starting to think this guy might be crazy or something. And what the h e double hockey sticks is "attempted indecent exposure"?

Because he's a teabagger?

If there were a mugshot, I'd have liked to see with which of the above gentlemen, if any, the alleged intruder does share a resemblance.

I've always suspected Jesus, Houdini and Elvis were the same guy. Thought I was the only one...
