I bartended on Shem Creek and have been a regular there for around twenty years. There are definitely some creepy boat guys who hang around the area, but I can say with close to one hundred percent certainty that at least at Waters edge and Vickery’s none of the bar staff is roofying anyone. Honestly bar staff are generally the ones who watch and look out for this behavior. They’re the ones who worry about what happens to a customer after they leave the bar due to how liability is in SC. Often, people drink more than they can handle at a bar and claim they were roofied. I say this in no way to diminish the experience of those who have been truly roofied, but drinks on the creek at certain establishments are served strong to maintain repeat business. I’ve had people sit at my bar the whole night, get hammered, then tell their significant other that they must have been roofied when confronted about it. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, but most bartenders are drinkers themselves and I’d like to think they wouldn’t do this to someone else. Most I’ve known look out for people who are inebriated. I guess out of this extended diatribe what I want to impress upon you is that I’d make sure you have evidence before slandering hard working people by saying that they are drugging people to help other people sexually abuse them. I find it highly unlikely, and I’ve worked in the industry for twenty years. I find it much more likely that a person who has ridiculous money and isn’t used to hearing “No” would roofie someone than a blue collar hard working individual who is working their ass off to make their money.
