A Scottish man has been convicted of a message that was grossly offensive, indecent or menacing. According to the Evening Express, the prosecutor cited the fact that Terry Myers, 41, called the Irish boyfriend of his ex-girlfriend, a “leprechaun.”
Prosecutor Susan Love declared that the mail was threatening but added that it was a racially aggravated offense due to the use of the word “leprechaun.”
He was found guilty and fined £280 ($350) for the offense.
