what makes him any different than any other criminal? criminals commit crime because they believe they can escape the consequences. ALL criminals believe there will be no consequences for their actions, whether they think they can escape from the consequences or don't care about the consequences at all.    but here's what makes the whole affluenza argument bull****.... the logic is basically that he's soo rich, that he thought he could buy his way out of consequences. that's ultimately the true reason why he thought there wouldn't be consequences for his actions. that's no different than if a wealthy person committed murder with the intent of paying people to look the other way. that's not affluenza, that's complacency. This kid should have received the maximum sentence. Now he's just going to brag to his friends that he killed a bunch of people and got away with it....    and here's the kicker....by not making him feel the consequences of his actions, they're reinforcing that he has little to no consequences for his actions, which is going to lead to more victims down the road. what happened to ignorance of the law being no excuse for breaking it? let's check this judge's finance records.    If they want to use the affluenza excuse, then he should be treated like a mentally ill person for the rest of his life.     Sorry, we can't hire you......you have affluenza, and we can't exactly have people walking around here that don't have the morality to believe there are consequences for their actions    they should strip him of his license PERMANENTLY. They should do everything in the power of the law to make sure his 'condition' limits what he wants to do in life. That means not lettin him legally near anything or any vehicle that would allow him to hurt others, because again, he doesn't understand consequences. I don't want a person who doesn't understand consequences to even be allowed to drive a boat or jet ski. He should be treated like a violent autistic for the rest of his life. He's made his bed of excuses, now he should be made to lay in it.
