Mother Sues Restaurant Over Son's Fatal Crash | Boston News
Description
A Massachusetts state trooper’s mother is suing a Saugus restaurant for $20 million, claiming it grossly neglected its duty by overserving the drunk driver who killed her son. The driver consumed nine drinks — seven free — at Tribu Mexican Kitchen before crashing head-on into a patrol car, killing both men. Surveillance shows he was visibly intoxicated and still served despite obvious signs of impairment. Though criminal charges were dropped, the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission is reviewing the restaurant’s license after evidence revealed his BAC was more than double the legal limit. The owners’ lawyer calls it an isolated tragedy, but the lawsuit argues systemic failures made this crash inevitable.
