If the allegations here are true, have authorities looked into where the alcohol came from? It’s frankly something that too often goes overlooked. Alcohol providers in Texas can face potential criminal investigations, fines, and liability if they unlawfully over-serve someone, and it leads to people getting hurt. I’ve handled hundreds of cases against negligent alcohol providers, and it’s unfortunately common for victims and families to come to me with zero knowledge of these legal avenues because authorities took no steps on their own to investigate beyond the intoxicated driver’s actions. Maybe authorities here have been more thorough, but it’s not the sort of thing I’d ever take for granted.
