And then everyone would be saying "somewhere else" is to blame. Here's the bottom line. The TEKEs did apparantely give her the booze. Whether she fell or was pushed, her judgement probably was impaired. Giving her alcohol is against the law -- whether the law is fair or not.

We absolutely MUST stop putting our organizations in this position. Besides the fact that people are badly hurt or even killed, the liability is huge.

One of the single biggest challenges to the survival of the Greek System is the rapidly rising cost of liability coverage. No organization can live without it, and situations like this one cause the skyrocketing premiums.
