Belated Christmas Present
US ‘affluenza’ teenager Ethan Couch arrested in Mexico:
A Texas teenager who avoided jail over a fatal drink-driving crash by claiming he suffered from “affluenza” has been detained by police in Mexico.
Ethan Couch, 18, and his mother Tonya were taken into custody in the west coast resort town of Puerto Vallarta.
He was on ten years of probation, which was a ‘gift’ for the crime he committed, and he posted a video that seemed to show him violating the terms of his parole. On top of that he failed to appear at a hearing and fled the country.
Depending on how annoyed the judge is over Couch’s conduct, he could be looking at prison time, probably 10 years. His mother will probably be charged with aiding and abetting a fleeing felon.
It couldn’t happen to nicer people… 😈
