If you allow a guest at your home to get really drunk and drive home, you can be held responsible for any damage they cause...

Loser... that's all i can say.... loser.
Geez, this thread is depressing. Not all teenage kids behave like complete morons. If I had've done something similar to this Corey twat when I was his age (which was only a couple of years ago, mind you) I would have had my *** kicked so hard I couldn't sit down for a week.

You are correct. If I have a BBQ / party in my home and something gets broken, I wear the damage. When you invite people to your home you do it at your own risk. Who hasn't had accidental breakage of plates, bowls, ornaments etc?????So Corey (aka the idiot) IS responsible and yes he should be financially liable!!!!!!!

For the damage to his own home?
Of course he should, its his house.
He is being charged for the damage to OTHER peoples homes and cars. Damaged caused after the party goers had LEFT his home.
If one of your guests at your BBQ bottles a car on the way home (lets say 100m from your home) are you offering to pay for the damage of the bottling? Or is it your friends responsibility.

Anything legal to back this up?
The person behind the wheel is responsible. No one else. Legally and ethically. Unless you want to prove me wrong. Austlii is a good start.

I think you guys are trying to absolve him of the total irrisponsibility of his behaviour. It wasn't his house to give a party in. It wasn't his house to adverstise on line. It wasn't his house to hold a party without adult supervision. So yeah....he did all these things off his own bat so now the consequences are his problem to.

No.
I think he deserves a punishment... Just not the proposed punishment.
Community service for being a public nuisance is FAR more fitting. This current penalty imo teaches two things:
1) Party hosts can be held accountable for guests actions.
2) Guests can bust up as much stuff as they want without consequence.
Punishing Corey with community service shows organisers can be punished for irresponsible parties and then attempting to track down those who caused the damage will show you can't break stuff at parties.
$20,000 is not reasonable.

If someone steals your car, should you be responsible for the damage it causes while the thief is driving it????
He stole a house to hold a party in - his parents did not give it to him for that purpose.
Community service won't repair the damage made to neighbouring properties....
If an example is made of this twerp maybe others will think twice.
As a home owner I really don't want to live with the worry that if the irresponsible teenager down the road holds a party and my place is trashed it's my problem. I'm not talking a couple of stubbies on the lawn - that I can deal with (***** they're probably mine.) I'm talking about wilful and malicious damage from drunken kids (and hangers-on) who should never have been there in the first place. If he hadn't decided to prove how cool he was and hold a party without the homeowner's (his parents) consent there would have been no damage - therefore he's responsible.

Lesa, I just checked with a cop I am friends with.
He did not steal the house. So legally, your argument has no merit.
He did not cause the damage yet he is being charged for it. Wrong.
BTW, the $20,000 is only for the police. None of the neighbours. Guess where the $20,000 will come from? I'll give you a hint, he gets $175 a week from centrelink.
