“It is shameful of the Plano Police department to go after the person who was vital in trying to stop the horrific events of that evening.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code states that a person is criminally negligent if they sell “an alcoholic beverage to an habitual drunkard or an intoxicated or insane person”.<\/p>\n A formal report by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) last year said that surveillance footage showed Hight appearing highly intoxicated, “unsteady on his feet” and “running into tables and walking sideways”,\u00a0according to CBS News.<\/a><\/p>\n Ms Glass had reportedly texted a fellow bartender, Timothy Banks, while serving Hight, saying: “Spencer has a big knife on the bar and is spinning it and just asked for his tab and said I have to go do some dirty work … Psychoooooooo.”<\/p>\n Ms Glass – who was trained to identify signs of intoxication – also informed Mr Banks that Hight was “drunk and being weird” and had “produced a pistol from his front pocket and put it on the table”.<\/p>\n It is against Texas law to bring a firearm into a bar.<\/p>\n The report found that Ms Glass had violated the state alcohol sale code.\u00a0According to NBC DFW<\/a>, the bar also lost its licence to sell alcohol last July due to the report.<\/p>\n According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, at least 30 states have some form of liability laws for establishments serving alcohol.<\/p>\n Globally, many countries – like the UK and Australia – have laws against selling alcohol to intoxicated patrons. Others also have laws that place some liability on entities who provide alcohol to already drunk people.<\/p>\n Source: bbc.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"Spencer](\"http:\/\/worldjusticenews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Spencer-Hight.jpg\")
