Commentary:
If alcohol turns out to be a factor in this accident, and the news report is accurate when it says they were returning from a friends house, I would suggest very strongly that determining where the alcohol originated from. Why is this significant information? Because if it was sold to the underage girls, or provided by an adult, both the business that sold or served them, or the adult that supplied the alcohol could be liable depending on the nature of the accident, and how the facts line up.
