Judge orders Texas teen to rehab for driving drunk and killing 4
 

Texas teen in "affluenza" case gets rehab for driving drunk, killing 4 - CNN.com

Some of you might have heard of this already. A 16 yr-old takes out his parents company car (F-350) with friends riding in the bed of the truck. The kid is drunk (3 times legal limit) and drugged up on THC, valium and muscle relaxants. On the side of the road are three people helping out a stranded driver. This teen ends up killing these four people and badly injuring his friends (one of them is paralyzed).

The judge sentences the teen to 10 yrs of rehab instead of jail time. The teen does not show any remorse for his actions at all. Also this is the same judge that sentence a 14-yr old kid to juve for punching a man that eventually died days later (Judge Jen Boyd Black Teen Prison - Business Insider).

All I have to say is what. the. fu*k.

There's a lot of comments flying around about wealth and race, but I'm more upset on the judicial system. What are you thoughts?

Neither do his parents. Haven't apologized to the victims families at all, from what I hear. Just treating them like ants under their feet.

This case is local to me. I'm disgusted by that trial & judge. I wish it had gone to a jury instead & that judge needs to be disbarred.

With that said, Justin Bieber is using the same legal team and plans on using "Douchefluenza" for his defense argument.

I hope the family files a wrongful death suit and cleans the family out...

This has to be a joke, right?


Apparently five civil suits have been filed so far, some of them for unspecified amounts.

This is such BS. That's like someone killing 4 people and then saying "sorry i had thuganze" :picardfp:

sad. should be charged as adult for four counts of manslaughter.

This is such old story, But on the other side, this is what happens when you have so much money.

Government need taxes, government will do anything to keep the rich happy.

Eye for an eye.
