Madison County Sheriff Allen Riley noted that its obvious that the vast majority of establishments are operating in full compliance of New York State laws as it applies to the sale of alcoholic beverages, which includes visual verification of the customers identification. Riley went on to say prohibiting the sale of alcohol to those under 21 is taken very seriously throughout the year, especially during the holiday season. This is the latest effort in the Sheriffs Office continuing multi-phase initiative involving enforcement of underage drinking laws, combating driving while intoxicated or ability impaired, and distracted driving.
