re: Where do you stand on bartenders being responsible for their patrons?

It certainly can. If he was serving to an underage drinker then that's on him. But in general, I don't think it's fair to hold a bartender responsible for something that a patron did after he left the bar.
That's my take too. They shouldn't be criminally responsible for anything other than whatever law they broke.
On a civil level, comparative fault should come into play.

ABC license teaches you how to spot a fake, so whether he had one or not, bartender and establishment are still fricked.
Really? Is that why some places swipe ID cards in magnetic readers or hold them under blacklights because fakes are so easy to spot?
This bar sounds like it was run by people who didn't care about the laws anyway. Two of those arrested are 19 years old and they were serving hard liquor but only licensed for beer and wine. This case is exceptional, in general I don't think it's rational to blame waitstaff and bartenders for the poor judgment of patrons.

It was obvious to them watching the video that he was obliterated. He should’ve been cut off even if he was of age.

I'm not sure what to tell you. I'm simply giving the facts. You are held responsible for serving minors whether they had a fake or not. I'm not taking a side in this, just laying out exactly what has and will continue to happen.

yes, as mentioned above, comparative negligence should come into play particularly when there are cameras. It's easy to over serve someone, yes. Me for example, I've been told I don't seem as drunk when in reality I'm hammered. Wife tells me this all the time when I have a bad hangover. She can't believe it. Says I seemed fine.
If someone is stumbling around, being sloppy, loud, etc...don't serve them. It's common sense.

How is it not the bartenders fault that a 19 year old was served 12 drinks without being carded once?
They are responsible for serving a minor. They are not responsible for him getting behind the wheel and killing someone.

They weren’t charged for this.
Although you could probably say they were charged with the other stuff only because of the wreck.

And that is what they were arrested for.

Mildred "Milly" Garcia, 21, is charged with making alcohol available to a minor and serving an intoxicated person.
Anna Evelyn Lule, 19, faces the same charges.
Jazely Marie Barrera, 21, is charged with sale of alcohol to a minor.
Jaquin Guadalupe Gonzalez, 19, is charged with making alcohol available to a minor.
Gustavo Tejada-Garcia, 28, who is the bar's manager, is charged with possession of an unauthorized beverage. Investigators say they were serving tequila but only have a license for beer and wine.

dram shop laws vary. if i recall, louisiana has no bartender liability, unless the patron was underaged. if they serve underaged patrons, the bartender is liable to whomever the drunk hurts.

A bar in my college town was sued by a kids parents when he killed some people driving home. It was penny beers. Kid was 18.
Curious what the OT thinks about that scenario.
I enjoyed said penny beers, weekly. But I can see the argument for "by offering penny beers you are asking that everyone get shitfaced".

No one is responsible for you other than you. To charge bartenders when something like this happens or charging a drug dealer for someone ODing is completely ignorant but par for the course these days. No one is responsible for their own decisions anymore

MADD is the shittiest organization in America. Guarantee you that they spearheaded this type of legislation.

How, in your opinion, does a 110 lb female physically deny a 200 lb man from getting in his car?
The whole premise for holding other people responsible for another actions is idiotic
