A lot of people are quick to assume things are open-and-shut whenever authorities say that a person is being charged for intoxicated driving after a crash. In reality, that could just be the beginning of the investigations. I've handled hundreds of cases involving drunk drivers where there was an accomplice to hold accountable: a negligent alcohol provider.
Investigations could show that this accident happened due to intoxication, and that intoxication was the result of a bar or similar establishment over-serving the intoxicated driver while they were obviously intoxicated. That could then expose the alcohol provider to potential criminal investigations, fines, suspended licenses, or liability for the resulting deaths or injuries.
Too often, though, this can slip through the cracks. I've had plenty of cases where families asked us to look into things, we found a complicit negligent alcohol provider, yet authorities had already moved on without investigating those providers. It could be authorities here have been more thorough to ensure all parties involved in the crash will face appropriate consequences. That said, it's best not to take that sort of thing for granted without seeing clear evidence.
