U.S. Marshals offer $5k reward for wanted "affluenza" teen.
U.S. Marshals eager to catch the runaway âaffluenzaâ teen have promised a bounty for the missing brat.
Agents are offering a reward of up to $5,000 for tips on the whereabouts of Ethan Couch, the Texas teen who dodged jail time for a fatal 2013 DUI wreck after his lawyers argued he was too privileged to understand the severity of what he did.
The 18-year-old vanished after he failed to show up to a Dec. 11 probation hearing. His mother, Tonya Couch, is also missing.
Local Tarrants County deputies began the hunt for Couch and werejoined by FBI agents and U.S. Marshals Friday.
The U.S. Marshals Service released a wanted poster for the teen Friday, begging anyone with information on Couch to come forward. The flier describes Couch as a 5-foot-7, 130-pound teenager with strawberry blond hair and a back tattoo.

I think the Marshals should’ve offered a $5 reward. Just to piss him off.
Only 5K, you won’t get much action on that, I say start issuing hunting licenses for the little animal, not only will the Marshalls get the carcass in short order, they will turn a profit too!
I still don’t understand why this is a Fed case.
How much does Dog the Bounty Hunter charge? Offer that much. ;-)

Now that IS some cutting edge thinking!! Common sense is rare, and you’ve got it!
You think like TRUMP, actually!! (Couldn’t resist.)
I must be the only one who on the planet that doesn’t know what this story is even about-
“His mother, Tonya Couch, is also missing.”
Clue: Check on business jet departures from the US for countries w/o extradition treaties with the US. Might also want to arrest the father as an accessory, and as others have suggested, review the judge’s financial dealings.
Let’s hope that young Ethan resists arrest and is dealt with accordingly.
“I must be the only one who on the planet that doesnât know what this story is even about-”
This little bastard (17 at the time) drove drunk and killed four people including a child.(in Texas). The judge let him go with probation, then immediately retired from the bench. Now the kid didn’t show of to meet with his probation officer, and both he and his mother have disappeared. They are wealthy. You figure it out.
He was so privileged he didn’t even understand how privileged he was, so he had to be privileged some more to help him understand how privileged he was. Yep, that makes sense.
ah thanks- I kept seeing headliens on him but didn’t read the articles- hopefully they catch this scumbag
Rush, this dittohead has your back. I know who's term it is.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I suspect they're close to home. You simply can't accumulate sufficient cash to carry out of the country in order to live a life of affluence wherever you go, for long. Using anything but cash, anywhere, will give your location away.
I would put a watch on daddy's cash acquisitions, and then follow him around.
If caught the entire family should be send to Bangladesh.
His daddy would probably pay more than that to not find him.
Doesn’t it become a federal case once it starts involving multiple states?
Affluent? He's more like white trash.
The son is white trash too. Like father, like son.
It automatically becomes a Federal case if there is any evidence that a fugitive has crossed a state line or fled the country.
“The flier describes Couch as a 5-foot-7, 130-pound teenager with strawberry blond hair and a back tattoo”
Perfect description of a prison bitch. The bubbas cant wait to hook up with him in prison.
