That Affluenza Kid and His Mother

[4est_4est_Gump]

If you want to be partisan in a backhanded way, go with your nutshell.

Mr. Not-Republican

Subliminal partisanship...

*chuckle*

... it seems to engender a violent defense from the up-front partisan crowd.

I prefer to call what you do cowardly partisanship. You try to leave yourself an "out" by only slamming others and their positions ...

I have made general observations and advocated no real position.

Grew a pair for once, dude.

I'm every bit the man you wish you were.

[Disgustipated]

But not close to the man you claim to be.

Too bad your balls never dropped. *shrugs*

Yeah Mongo, you much man...

Its a socialist science truth: WHEN A CRIMINAL SUFFERS FROM 'AFFLUENZA' HIS JUDGE OFTEN COMES DOWN WITH 'INFLUENZA.'

Affluenza defense

Is a piece of crock in this day and age. It's nearly impossible not to see or hear a public service announcement about drunk driving especially before and during the big holidays. The boy should have been charged with 4 counts of premeditated murder and if found guilty executed within 24 hours.

Does that stand for all convicted murderers? In all states?

It's not about whether he knew drunk driving was illegal. That isn't even close to what the affulenza defense is. Not to say I agree with it but what you're saying is totally off the mark.

There are three states with high wrongful conviction rates. One of them is Texas. Three counties in Texas with the highest wrongful conviction rates are those that include Dallas, Austin, and Houston. Some of the wrongful convicted had been behind bars up to 17 years before the truth was discovered. The only way to cure this problem would be to put the detectives that failed to investigate or hid evidence behind bars plus strip the prosecutors of their licenses to practice law for life.

I don't think I'm off the mark. The boy knew what he did was wrong and illegal, but he was used to his parents bailing him out of trouble so why not drive drunk.

You said there was no excuse because of the PSA's regarding drunk drving. They have nothing to do with it because he obviously knew it was wrong. He just didn't care that it was wrong. No amount of PSA's are going to change that.

Most people wrongfully convicted aren't there because of bad cops and lawyers. No DNA at the time of conviction, lying witnesses, juries that do odd things, judges that do odd things and so on. I'm sure only a small number are in prison because the cops hid evidence.

Yes. All murderers should be executed.

It's not as if not killing someone (except in self-defense) is something new. Everyone knows the rule so can't claim ignorance.

We had kinda the same event here several years ago.

A negro teen took his granny's car without permission or drivers license, drove faster than the speed limit, ran thu a stop sign and killed two people he hit T-bone style. He was one week shy of 18.

In Florida vehicle homicide is 15 years. Any contributing factors double the penalty. No license, speeding, careless driving, failure to stop, and fleeing the scene were more than enough.

It was racism. He did time served (2 years) and went home to granny. It was racism because the judge tried daddy and sent him to prison before junior came along.

The high court rejected appeals but the attorney general transferred the case to a different prosecutor and judge. and they cut the boy loose.

This is what I was talking about a bit earlier in the thread about making more and more serious "mistakes":

So I understand Carrot Top got out of jail on bond. This is injustice. The had her bail at a million, but Carrot Top's lawyer wanted it reduced. I don't know if it was, but a million sounded reasonable to me under the circumstances. I hope they have an ankle bracelet on Carrot Top, at least.
I would have held Carrot Top without bond.
I hope her spawn is extradited soon.

 

[doowdniw]

Bail was reduced from $1 million to $75K. Which means she probably needs to come up with about 10%, or $7,500. Because of course, she's not really a flight risk...and the judge is a dumb ass.

 

[JohnnySavage]

Makes you wonder just how affluent they are if she can't come up with a million dollar bond.
