Ann Senack trial hears serving protocol for Ont bartenders

The criminal negligence trial of a former bartender in the Eastern Ontario village of Calabogie continued in Pembroke Friday. Court heard from Enrico DeFrancesco, an Algonquin College professor, former bartender, nightclub manager and instructor in the responsible serving of alcohol. He testified about a serving protocol as taught in a course known as Smart Serve. The charge of criminal negligence against a server is so rare that the case may be a precedent. The accused is Ann Senack, a well-known local resident who has had much support in the community.  Renfrew Today
