These are very serious charges, but there may still be more to this story. Authorities didn’t specify if they think alcohol or drugs contributed to this accident. That can make a world of difference. If alcohol was the cause of the accident, that could mean there’s also a negligent alcohol provider responsible for contributing to the crash.
In Texas, bars, restaurants, liquor stores, and other establishments are breaking the law if they serve someone who is obviously intoxicated. Doing so means the alcohol provider can be held responsible if that person’s intoxication leads to people getting hurt or killed. Not only can this be a crucial avenue for victims and families to see wrongdoers held accountable, but it’s also a path to help ensure an otherwise reckless establishment cleans up its act before more people get hurt.
So as serious as these reported charges are, they may only be the beginning of a much larger story. Hopefully authorities aren’t being too narrow in their efforts, since it’s possible there’s an accomplice to all of this who may still need to be called out.
