Affluenza Felon Found
Mexican authorities have detained so-called "affluenza" teen Ethan Couch and his mother near the popular Mexican Pacific beach resort town of Puerto Vallarta, officials briefed on the matter told CNN. Hiding out in plain sight? Maybe he is so affluent, he didn't believe they'd find him. Maybe it's all part of his defense!Couch went missing earlier this month, two years after he made national news when he was sentenced to probation for a drunken driving crash that killed four people. Couch is expected to be turned over to U.S. Marshals, who have spent weeks searching for him. Last week, a Tarrant County D.A. said if they had a Ten Most Wanted List, Ethan Couch would be on the top of the list. He is wanted by authorities in Tarrant County, Texas, for allegedly violating probation. Allegedly? He failed to report on time, left the State without notifying his probation officer, and fled the country. I'm pretty sure he violated his probation on three or four counts, even if it was a two-week vacation in sunny Mexico. His mother was listed by Texas authorities as a missing person after her son's disappearance, and the authorities said they believed she was assisting her son. Allegedly. Allegedly assisted her son. I'm sure it was Mommy who hired the expensive lawyer who concocted the affluenza defense, and found a willing judge to hear the case. Mommy ought to go up the river for ten to twenty.
