Miami- A service monkey named JoJo attacked his quadriplegic handler Estevan Fuentes, after Mr. Fuentes ordered the brown and black Capuchin monkey to wear custom made French Maids outfit.  "JoJo has never acted out like this before, exclaimend Fuentes."  "He has over two hundred outfits, everything from, a white and blue sailors suit to a mini Kung-Fu outfit." 

Fuentes said, that his monkey loved getting dressed-up to stroll up and down Ocean Drive in South Beach; "you know a few times we even wore matching outfits".  "I remember the day we both wore the black suit that Al Pacino wore in Scareface." As he ponders the good-old-days, his multiple mini face and ear bandages begin to loosen from his teary face.

It was horrible says Fuentes, "I can still feel him jumping on my lap, looking up at me in that adorable black and white french maid outfit, then going ballistic."  As his body tenses up from reliving the situation, he continues his tale.  "It was a nightmare,  his small fist struck and landed on my eyes, ears, mouth and nose.  JoJo tried biting Mr. Fuentes but did nothing more than gum his face, nose and ears. The service monkeys teeth are always removed in order to insure safety according to JoJo's training organization, "Capucin Sitters".  "I can still smell his banana and walnut breath as he tried chomping on my nose"  Fuentes stares out of his window, into the garden then says, "It was unpleasant, a real slap in the face."  "I treated JoJo like a family member and that's what I get."  "I think next time I will get a service dog!"

After numerous calls to Capucin Sitters, the organization that trained JoJo we finally got an interview and tour of their facility.  Located in the outskirts of Miami and about five miles from the "Parrot Jungle", the facility is clean and spacious.  They have a fenced in jungle-like park where the monkeys play and even a custom kitchen where they train them to make small meals for their handlers.  

The Executive Director, Mr. Simpson is a robust and jolly fellow.  One thing is sure after speaking to Mr. Simpson, he takes his monkey training serious.  However, when asked about the "Fuentes and JoJo" incident he starts an unstoppable laugh attack.   His eyes water, and he holds his side as he regains his composure,  "Well the only thing I can say is that Mr. Fuentes got what he deserved."  We have repeatedly warned Fuentes that these are trained "Helper Monkeys", not Barbie dolls he can parade on his wheelchair in South Beach. 

This is not the first we hear about Mr. Fuentes said Simpson, a number of guys have called complaining that Fuentes was picking-up girls with JoJo.  One of these guys asked, "how can I compete with a monkey?"  "Once while I was sipping my guava nectar at Cafe News, Fuentes and JoJo both stroll by dressed like Scarface, JoJo even had a mini Cuban cigar in his mouth." Stated Simpson.  These monkeys are meant to be indoors helping not outdoors or in dance clubs, like Mr. Fuentes thinks, he continued.

When asked about the "monkey beating", and bruises on Fuentes face, Simpson laughed for another five minutes.  List, he said, if you try to put me in a French Maid outfit I would beat your ass too; "I guess JoJo reached the breaking point".
