Those Reckless Unicorns
On March 7th, A pickup truck in Billings, Montana drove through a red light, narrowly missed another truck, took a U-turn through a gas station, crossed the street, and crashed into a light pole.
“Prosecutor Ingrid Rosenquist said Phillip C. Holliday Jr. initially denied driving the truck involved in the March 7 crash in Billings. He told officers at the scene that a unicorn was driving, she said.”
Uh … ok.

No…
I read this story. It was a “Unicorn Defense”.
“Unicorn defense” is a slang term used by prosecutors when a defendant blames some mythical person for a crime.”

Would the unicorn have to use its horn to honk the horn?
