It's possible authorities have been working behind the scenes to investigate this crash further before reporting official charges. Folks tend to assume alleged drunk driving accidents are simple, but they can require a lot more than just a driver to blame. A proper investigations also needs to find out where that person got their alcohol from.
Simply put, negligent alcohol providers in Texas can be responsible for contributing to serious drunk driving accidents. If a bar or similar establishment over-serves someone who is obviously intoxicated, then they can be held accountable if that leads to people getting hurt or killed.
That said, in my experience handling hundreds of cases against negligent alcohol providers, I rarely see authorities look into that on their own. It's possible they've been more thorough here, and that's why they didn't immediately report possible charges. However, if it turns out authorities haven't looked beyond the person who was behind the wheel, there could still be more to this story.
