A Boulder County grand jury has indicted five parents, two companies and a Boulder liquor store on suspicion of supplying alcohol to teens and allowing them to consume it, which allegedly resulted in a crash thatSince the April 9 crash, investigators have attempted to speak with numerous adult and juvenile witnesses about how and where the driver consumed alcohol, but many refused to speak with investigators.
The names of all juveniles reportedly involved have been redacted from the report in accordance with state law that prohibits the disclosure of a juvenile’s name, birth date or photograph if the juvenile is charged with a serious crime. Several teens who attended pre-prom and after prom-parties on April 9, admitted they had purchased alcohol from Willow Springs Wines & Spirits, the report said. The business provided law enforcement with several fake IDs it had confiscated over the years. Since the crash, witnesses report the store has changed its policies and does not allow juveniles to purchase alcohol anymore.
When the bus arrived at the prom, staff with Boulder High School and the Church Ranch Event Center in Westminster — where the prom was held — noticed that students exiting Johnson’s party bus were visibly intoxicated, the report said. Two students were even so drunk they fell on the pavement. Boulder Valley School District Superintendent Rob Anderson, in an email statement sent out to families Wednesday evening, said the school district has taken steps to address the community issue of underaged drinking and drug use. He said the protocol at the high schools is typically to “pull aside students who smell like alcohol or appear to be impaired, contact parents, and establish a safe and appropriate way for the student to get home.
According to a witness, since the fatal crash, Charlene Hoffman has expressed doubts about the appropriateness of permitting juveniles to drink at her home, the report said.Jon Banashek, an attorney representing Todd and Charlene Hoffman, said in a statement, “The accident resulting in the deaths of Ori Tisioni and Gregoria Morales Ramirez was a horrible tragedy and the Hoffmans send their deepest condolences to both families.
