[quote=Anonymous]I've heard of bartenders/bar owners being liable for serving an obvious drunk and letting him/her walk out the door with car keys (causing an accident)... but I've never heard of a third party (bartender/producer) being held responsible for letting someone get drunk and then having sex.

This could open up a whole new line of legal responsibility.... if A goes to a bar with friend (B) and sees that B is drunk and wants to go home with C... does A have a legal duty to stop B from sleeping with C if A knows that B would never sleep with C while sober?

Corinne says she does NOT hold DeMario responsible.  OK... so then what is the basis for the producers being responsible?  If Corinne is an adult (I believe she is by age), then why do the producers have any responsibility to stop her from doing anything with DeMario?  She says she was too drunk to consent -- well, then isn't she saying DeMario took advantage of her impaired state?  Yet, she isn't blaming DeMario... so if DeMario didn't assault her, then what were the producers supposed to stop?

I can see how producers/video operators would have a responsibility to stop a criminal act (whether that is rape or assault), but according to Corinne's own version, DeMario didn't do anything wrong.  So, why do the producers have any obligation to stop an adult from doing something not illegal?

In order for the producers to have any responsibility to protect Corinne, doesn't there have to be someone identified as a perpetrator?  Corinne says DeMario is not a wrong-doer.  [/quote]
