This is the strangest story I've heard in a long time. I'm not sure I follow the logic, much less the law.

I can see the holding the bar responsible for selling to a drunk who kills someone (although it would have to be proven) but this is obscene.

The law was broken even without the crash. They were cited (by the state) for "selling to intoxicated persons".
This is not (yet) a "deep-pockets" civil suit.

There is no logic here. This is another case of authorities being given a common sense law that could be useful for the protection of the general public and twisting the intention of the law to a usage that was unintended and not contemplated by the lawmakers. This indicates a lack of ethics by the police and prosecutors and any judge that will hear this indictment. Any judge should dismiss, failing that a jury should nullify.
