To Rich For Justice?

 

In an outrageous ruling, 16 year old Texas teen Ethan Couch was given only 10 years probation and a year of rehab in a fancy rehab center  for a drunk driving accident  that killed 4 people and seriously injured 2 others.  His lawyer successfully argued that because he led an entitled life, and his parents let him have anything he wanted, he had no concept of personal responsibility.  Justice is supposed to be blind, and no one should be above the law due to their wealth or social standing, or below it do to their lack thereof. Hopefully, the prosecutors can find some  loophole and get him some prison time!
