- 1:34Speaker 1: we live in a world where nobody holds themselves accountable
- 1:38Speaker 1: for nothing. Okay, nothing is never default of the person,
- 1:42Speaker 1: all right, Blame always has to go to someone else.
- 1:45Speaker 1: So Daniella is blaming someone else for this. She's actually
- 1:49Speaker 1: filing a lawsuit against Ovations Ontario Food Services, alleging that
- 1:55Speaker 1: the company shares some of the liability for civil lawsuits
- 1:58Speaker 1: filed by the victims of the blast because today served
- 2:02Speaker 1: her alcohol. Yeah, she's blaming it onto alcohol. I can't
- 2:06Speaker 1: make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to STV
- 2:08Speaker 1: news for the report. Police the kitchen or woman behind
- 2:10Speaker 1: the wheel and an impaired driving crash that destroyed and
- 2:13Speaker 1: damaged several homes in London is suing the company that
- 2:16Speaker 1: served her at Budweiser Gardens that night. Daniella Lees is
- 2:20Speaker 1: facing a number of civil lawsuits in relation to the
- 2:22Speaker 1: August twenty nineteen crash and says Ovations Ontario Food Services
- 2:27Speaker 1: should share liability Now ctvs. Christa Simpson is joining us
- 2:31Speaker 1: Now with more on this story Krista. Before the crash,
- 2:34Speaker 1: Lees was at a concert Ricardo. The statement of claims says,
- 2:38Speaker 1: among other things, the company served her alcohol, didn't monitor
- 2:42Speaker 1: how much she was drinking, let her drink more than
- 2:44Speaker 1: she should have, and ejected her from the venue without
- 2:47Speaker 1: making sure she was not going to drive impaired. In
- 2:51Speaker 1: October twenty twenty, Lees pleaded guilty to four counts of
- 2:54Speaker 1: impaired driving causing bodily harm, ultimately being sentenced to three
- 2:58Speaker 1: years in prison. Lees lawsuit against Ovations Ontario Food Services
- 3:03Speaker 1: says the crash would not have happened if the company
- 3:05Speaker 1: had not been negligent. You know, I came up in
- 3:10Speaker 1: an era when drinking and driving was a choice. Okay,
- 3:14Speaker 1: you can drink or you can drive. You can drive
- 3:18Speaker 1: or you can drink, but you cannot do both. Okay.
- 3:20Speaker 1: We had so many reminders not to drinking drive. You know,
- 3:23Speaker 1: South Carolina had the highways, the dieways commercials. I don't
- 3:26Speaker 1: know if they were national. I think they might have
- 3:27Speaker 1: been national. Virginia had to drive sober or get pulled
- 3:30Speaker 1: over done might have been national too, I don't remember,
- 3:33Speaker 1: but remember the buzz driving is drunk driving campaigns. I
- 3:37Speaker 1: know the Texas Texas had the faces of drunk driving ads.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I mean, don't drinking drive was literally drilled into our
- 3:44Speaker 1: brains since day one. Okay, not to mention this happened
- 3:48Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, all right, The rideshare revolution has been
- 3:51Speaker 1: happening for a long time. Okay, to lift the ubers
- 3:56Speaker 1: of the world. There was somebody you could have called Daniella. Now,
- 3:59Speaker 1: don't get me wrong. We know that some bars can
- 4:02Speaker 1: be held liable when they know a person is intoxicated
- 4:05Speaker 1: and they keep serving them. I don't know if this
- 4:07Speaker 1: is one of those situations. Okay. The lawsuit is saying
- 4:10Speaker 1: that they knew she was intoxicated, and did not train
- 4:14Speaker 1: a supervised staff serving alcohol, and put profit above safety.
- 4:19Speaker 1: I don't know if all that is true. I don't
- 4:20Speaker 1: know if all that is proven. All I know is
- 4:23Speaker 1: that in the drunk driving case, the primary defendant is
- 4:26Speaker 1: the drunk driver. Okay, we live in a society where
- 4:29Speaker 1: nobody wants to be held accountable for their actions. It's
- 4:31Speaker 1: always somebody else's fault. She's better off saying the devil
- 4:35Speaker 1: made me do it. Okay, if you're gonna blame somebody,
- 4:37Speaker 1: blame Satan, Lucifer Beesel, Bob Trump, whatever you call the devil,
- 4:41Speaker 1: she might as well have put the blame on that
- 4:43Speaker 1: evil entity, because all that is more believable and makes
- 4:47Speaker 1: more sense. But at the end of the day, we
- 4:49Speaker 1: are all accountable for ourselves, simple as that. Accountability breeds responsibility.
- 4:56Speaker 1: So whatever you see someone doing something is irresponsible as
- 4:59Speaker 1: dan Ella did, it's because she's probably a human who
- 5:03Speaker 1: has never been held accountable for anything she's ever done
- 5:06Speaker 1: in her life. Okay, that three is in prison she's
- 5:09Speaker 1: serving right now is the first time she's probably ever
- 5:12Speaker 1: been held accountable for her actions, and of course she
- 5:15Speaker 1: doesn't want to take full responsibility. Well, kids, always remember
- 5:20Speaker 1: ninety nine percent of all failures come from people who
- 5:23Speaker 1: have a habit of making excuses. Safe to say, dan
- 5:27Speaker 1: Yellow falls under that ninety nine percent. Please let me mad,
- 5:31Speaker 1: give Daniello lease the biggest he hall heeha heeha, You
