13204962, i want to clear one thing up Posted by MiracleRic, Mon Oct-23-17 01:57 PM
you don't have to be the one feeding the other person drinks to be legally liable for the assault
all it takes is for there to be enough witnesses to state that you knew she was too drunk to properly give consent
that's it
someone else could have roofied her...and if you took advantage...you are on the hook bc she couldn't consent...it doesn't matter if you or someone else is responsible for the condition she was in
now if she didn't appear drunk even to witnesses...yea...you'd likely be safe but i see it repeated here that you have to provide the drinks or even have intent on taking advantage for you to be legally on the hook
that's not necessarily true at all...it's not necessarily fair either but those are the breaks
