Part II: Taylor

Taylor watched Independence Day fireworks and attended a beer party after the show at the Ozland Fairgrounds. Taylor owns a nearby farm and had traveled to the Fairgrounds by horse-drawn wagon. When the party was over, Taylor headed home. Sometime later, on Ozland Highway 102, a police officer noticed Taylor's horse-drawn wagon proceeding along the highway withharness parts dangling dangerously and no person in sight. The officer stopped Taylor's horse-drawn wagon and found Taylor asleep in the back of the wagon, surrounded by empty beer cans and the odor of alcohol. Taylor was arrested for OUI and found to have a high blood alcohol content.

• Identify specific facts (or missing facts!) to support each conclusion.
