Affluenza jerk couldn’t afford strip club bill, crawled to mommy
NY Post ^ | January 1, 2016

Posted on 01/01/2016 7:26:37 AM PST by HonkyTonkMan

The "affluenza" brat partied a little too hard at a strip club in Mexico while on the lam and needed Mommy's help to foot the bill.

Ethan Couch, 18, typically stayed inside his room at Los Tules, a resort in Puerto Vallarta, but one night, he decided to hit a gentleman's club.

Hours later, he was escorted back to the lobby of the resort flanked by two bouncers from the club after he could not pay his big bill.

Hotel workers had to go get his mom, Tonya, who was sleeping upstairs.

"He did not have enough money to pay the bar bill, and his mother had to bail him out," hotel worker Marina Meza told The Dallas Morning News.

I have no idea who these people are.

I have been following this since it is in this area. Law enforcement says the father is not involved. Maybe the parents are separated or divorced.

Just wondering where the dad was in all this. Seems that the mom was more involved in protecting her little snowflake.

Since Mom seems to have ' issues ' like thinking she and her spawn are above the law, maybe Dad washed his hands of her to let Murphy's Law take a hold on her life...

I know I would...

Their wealth is the issue — not their skin color.

How does this kid differ from Ted Kennedy? Just a different time and place.

A few years in a Mexican prison is the perfect cure for affluenza.

It's time to stop referring to this family as “affluent” and start referring to them as white-trash low-life.

That would mean that their last name would have to be either Kennedy or Clinton. Since the Clintons are in the news right now, I vote for Kennedy. At least it's easier to spell than Kardashian.

2. hotel workers found a large-caliber revolver that they said the Couches brought with them

The US should have let him rot in a Mexican jail for that illegal gun. Would’ve been a worse punishment than what he’ll get here.

They should have gotten them on a firearms charge.

A few years in a Mexican prison might teach him a lesson.

What Mexican laws has he broken?

They say he can only get 120 days if extradited. Good. Make all 120 in GenPop. I’ll bet he won’t last 120 hours, and the 4 murdered souls he took from this Earth will be avenged.

They have been divorced for a while. Mom got a nice settlement and some alimony and some child support.

The paralysed victim looks to be hispanic, maybe with family roots in Mexico. A carton or two of Marlboros could be enough for a night visit to the drunk gringo punk.

“What Mexican laws has he broken?”

Immigration/tourist laws.
Vehicle import laws.
Gun laws.
For starters,,,, Mexico has many interesting laws.
