Historically, when a society denies its members justice, the people take the law into their own hands - and pandemonium ensues. I seriously hope we're not headed down that path.

eighteen : My point was, they didn't need to sell off all their belongings for a guilty plea and court costs

MissAmericanPie : Apparently they did, because that's what they did.

eighteen : Probably wanting to just get out Dodge where their name is mud.

MissAmericanPie : After several years of paying an attorney.

MrsTfromADC : Maybe that's it. It's not cheap but the whole relocation thing seems like an escape plan.

Baldrick : Now this speedster.....

luannski : Same thing happened to a friend of mine in CO. several years ago.

goldie : No lesson learned.

I'm honestly not sure how I feel about this. I think the parents need to be held accountable for this as well. And I hope there's counseling involved and remorse on his end.Was he stupid? Did he make a bad decision?
Yes to both. If he can use this time to reflect and better himself
, then he will be beneficial to the community, I hope.I totally believe in being held accountable for your actions, by the way.I'm just so sorry for those poor girls and their families

I feel sorry for all invilolved but before people throw stones from their pillars.. you may want to look at the other side...Devils advocate here....Would you think or feel the same if this was you or your son?Nobody cares about a drunk driver until someone is hurt... why didn't anybody report him drunk before he drove?He made a big mistake he has to live with and remember for the rest of his life... he got his friends killed. How would you feel if that was you? Or your son?Those girls with him and were having fun... they probably were all drinking... do we know.. i dont. He has to be on probation for 10 years means if he messes up he goes to jail. Thats a harsh reminder. How would you feel if this was you or your son?He has to stop his life and report to jail for for 120 days.. showing up and doing that is a pain in itself. Your time doesnt start until you are booked into housing. That could take hours to process.We are not perfect we all make mistakes and have especially as teenagers... so a kid messed up... you want to send him to jail where he will probably become a real criminal. Why not make him become an advocate on drinking and driving. Make him tell his story to other teenagers. Maybe he can make a difference in his life or another teenagers life... by being on probation for 10 years... rather than jail doing nothing living off your taxes.

KTownTexican : I'd feel like he deserved it…bc he would. Would anyone enjoy it? No. But in the real world there are consequences to your actions. And when you KNOW something is not only morally wrong, but illegal too, and you still chose to engage it AND risk other people, that means you chose this and you also chose the consequences.It doesn't matter what anyone "feels". That does not negate REALITY.

goldie :
I would imagine he is on a 10 year probation, & any DUI were put him in prison for the 10 years. Must have had a Really good lawyer!🤷‍♀️🙏

yeah but does he move like Jaggar?

lsg49 : Moved to Colorado for college.
