June 15, 2013 Drunk Driver Kills Youth Pastor Helping Car A truck slammed at 70 mph in a 40 zone into the parked car of popular youth pastor and father of three from Burleson, Texas who was helping a driver with a flat tire at midnight. 4 were killed and nine others were hurt. The cause of the crash was that the drunk driver who was found with beer and vodka in his truck. Ethan Couch, age 16, had two previous alcohol citations and was charged with intoxication manslaughter and two counts of intoxicated assault. He pled no contest in both counts and was required to take an alcohol awareness class and participate in 12 hours of community services, though prosecutors are seeking a 20-year prison term. He got 10 years probation after his lawyers argued he was a victim of affluenza, rich parents who set no limits.

- CNN host Anderson Cooper grilled the psychologist who testified in court that the 16-year-old Texas drunk driver who killed four people suffered from “affluenza” and could not be held responsible for his actions. Cooper pointed out to guest G. Dick Miller that District Judge Jean Boyd sentenced a 14-year-old poor Black teen to a 10-year-sentence within the state’s juvenile justice system, while Miller’s client, 16-year-old Ethan Couch — an affluent white teen — was given an extended probationin what Cooper described as resort-like conditions. “Why is that okay for a 14-year-old poor kid, but for a 16-year-old well-off kid, they get to go have equine therapy,” Cooper asked Miller. “Does that seems fair?”
