This statement is false. A witness is not automatically disqualified from testifying due to alcohol consumption. The impact of alcohol consumption on their ability to observe, remember, or relate events accurately is an issue for the jury or fact-finder to consider when determining the credibility of the testimony, but it does not affect the witness's legal competency to testify. Competency is a legal threshold, and alcohol consumption alone does not automatically render someone incompetent.
