Character

Yanni Yogi

灰根 高太郎

Yanni Yogi was a bailiff at the District Court, perhaps best known as the prime suspect in the DL-6 Incident. Fifteen years after his trial, he appeared as an apparently senile old witness for the trial of Miles Edgeworth for the murder of his old defense attorney, Robert Hammond. Little is known about Yogi's personality before the murder of Gregory Edgeworth. What is known is that he was the first to panic in the lift and attack Edgeworth as the air thinned to unbearable amounts. His personality changed after the incident, as the loss of his job and his fiancée left him with a great deal of resentment and anger. While under his fake persona, Yogi appeared senile and confused. He called Wright "Keith" and Maya Fey "Meg", and acted like he believed they were his children who had come back to him to inherit his "pasta shop". He also had the habit of falling asleep spontaneously. However, as soon as his true identity was revealed, Yogi lost all traces of his previous personality, immediately becoming lucid and calm. Even his posture changed from hunched-over to upright as he admitted his guilt.
