the 16-year-old even couch I was recently convicted
killing four people after he got into a pickup truck with seven passengers and
he ran
over and for people who died as a result
love him crashing into them also there was one person in the vehicle and the
bed of his truck that was severely injured he suffered from brain damage as
a result in the car crash
now after he got convicted he was only sentenced to 10 years of probation
even though he stole liquor got drunk and killed four people
and the defense that was successfully use was
well yet Apple ones are which means that since he comes from a wealthy background
he can't tell right from wrong
now understandably the family members up the victims
are outraged at this so they are filing civil lawsuits against him in fact right
now there are five different civil lawsuits that
even cows and his family will have to battle in court
and I want to give you a list of what those lawsuits are so Eric boils
assuming couch for more than one million dollars in damages after his wife and
daughter were killed
when they were hit by couches vehicle also marla Mitchell who was on the phone
with her daughter Briana when she was hit and killed
is suing for unspecified damages shana Jennings the white for Brian Jennings is
seeking unspecified damages for her
and their three children up and also one or the other big lawsuits that they're
going to have to fight
involve someone by the name a Sergio Molina he was the person who is out
lying down in the bed of the truck
who got tossed out up the truck after the car accident happened
his family is suing for twenty million dollars because he had such severe brain
damage that he cannot
function at all he cannot talk so for civil
as we've said before this case is doubly ironic who so
the defense was rich people don't
understand the consequences of their actions so can you make sure that he
doesn't get any consequences for his actions
and that defense actually worked that's just stunning to me it's unbelievable
now the second irony that oh that defenses its
rich people who hired a psychologist to defend their kid by saying
you're going to enrich people are pricks like we do
things that other people and we don't give a damn and we don't think there's
any consequences those actions
cuz were above the law now can you go and confirm that were above the law
and outwork yet the rich person defense seems to work
a great deal the time and when you really think about it %uh
when divorce is occur a lot of times a woman can successfully sue for at least
50 percent
the money that the husband earned because she will say that she is used to
a certain lifestyle
I'm used to living this wealthy lifestyle therefore I'm entitled to that
money
and oftentimes that type of argument works any
it's incredible to me the rich keep getting richer they get to use their
status and their well
and their privilege as a way of getting out of criminal activity
or bad behavior but you know what's funny is that in the second part that
Iran
I actually don't agree with the defense cuz I think they're
being unduly harsh against the rich to say that another the rich just because
you're affluent means you can understand the consequences of your actions
that's ridiculous there's a lot of good rich folks or doctors dentists
Oprah in a ball wherever they happen to be they understand the consequences of
their actions
the end so to say that while if you're rich I mean obviously you're so above
the law
that you can't be bothered by four people on the side of the road obviously
gonna run them over not give a damn
and that's why you should be able to run them over not given their look just
playing devil's advocate
you know their response to that would be well this sixteen-year-old in
are not well he was raised with that well that was ordered by his parents
right
so oprah's okay cuz she actually earned it yeah
Bill Gates is okay but if you're born into it yeah well then you have no sense
of morality
you haven't been taught right from wrong ok it will the you
I still don't agree that every do I born into wealth
is natural-born prick right and I certainly don't agree they should be
allowed to get away with their crimes
because at that now we turn to the civil action because the
once that ruling is in you can't increases
penalty he's been tried on that and it's over okay
criminal so I think these guys a ride they're doing basically all the goldman
family did OJ
well you know you that well as I can cure that right
well when you don't have the money all the sudden you can understand the year
accessible on the consequences and look you seem to have this problem said you
had this problem
I'm not without problems okay I mean look
from the family members here know my money's gonna bring Mike a
kids back its entire I but this isn't about that it's about principle it's
about facing consequences for your actions
I think that it is situation like this
I wouldn't care I i doubt i would do to sue under other circumstances
somebody ran over my family and they gotta but under this circumstance
where they rub your face in it like i AI to you on the phone when I ran over
your daughter killer a bit sick exam bridge all
book no no way no way might come after every dime you got
so that you can make that defense again right they should
and so you know hey parents and my with parents at all when we hardly raise them
right because we're rich
so raising kids we don't do that right you can do with my
liable right or what happened if that's exactly right terrible parents
that led to a 16-year-old stealing liquor it
all the different laws he broke stealing liquor from Walmart
driving drunk as he's under the age with seven passengers in his vehicle
and then proceed to take killed four people and severely injure another
person that in the car with him
any 10 years probation its I but this one when the more you think about the
angrier
makes you because you know there's that double standard how many times have we
done stories you're someone just the shop would be a Walmart in the law comes
down on him
so god damn hard however they're always poor right or their middle-class
you do when you're there all how dare you stealing become redistribution how
dare you
use com right but if you're a chuckle I was just a prank I i just a look from
Walmart
and Robert by the way three times the legal limit
it looked again what you think he should have gotten
and what other people that situation would get is an interesting question
but did they say that it's okay because he was rich
is the part that in rage is all about us and and
in invites the biggest civil lawsuit ever
right and if I'm on that jury in your game tell me
all I did a terrible job raising my kids because I was too damn region and they
have been run over your kids in Killam
again I have a great way to cure that
