Bartender Charged In Connection With Man Who Killed 8 People

A 27-year-old bartender has been charged with violating Texas' alcoholic beverage code after allegedly over serving a man who would go on to kill eight people in 2017. Lindsey Glass was arrested April 30 after the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission claims she violated its "Sale of Certain Persons" offense by negligently selling an "alcoholic beverage to an habitual drunkard or an intoxicated or insane person," CBS News reported.

Spencer Hight left the bar Sept. 10, 2017, and went to the home of his ex-wife where a group of people were watching a Dallas Cowboys game, NBC News reported. Hight killed his ex-wife and seven other people before dying in a police shootout. His blood-alcohol level was more than four times the legal limit, NBC added.

Glass' attorney, Scott Palmer, provided CBS the following statement: "Spencer Hight's decision to destroy the lives of eight other people is unrelated to the four drinks that Hight consumed at the Local Public House on September 10, 2017. Indeed, far from being complicit, Lindsey was the only person who tried to stop Hight. When Lindsey became suspicions of Hight she contacted her manager. When her manager's efforts did not resolve Lindsey's concerns, she followed Hight and then, as her concerns grew, she called 911. Lindsey never expected for Hight to commit this horrific act."
