"Druid Murder Trial"

Thursday June 21, 2007
What's a "Druid murder trial?" Obviously, one where the defendant refers to himself as a Druid, because that's obviously the most relevant detail. I wonder why I've never seen a headline about a "Lutheran murder" or a "Unitarian trial?"

(1) aaa says:

“Police in western France were yesterday hunting a group of Satanists who they believe responsible for burning down a 16th century chapel at the weekend as well as a series of attacks on other Christian sites…

“This area was heavily influenced by druidism, and many Christian sites were built on places sacred to the old religion. Maybe certain people want to return them to their roots. That’s one theory we are working on,” said gendarme Philippe Davadie, one of a 15-member team investigating the attacks.”
