Read the reviews The kid murdered 4 innocent people and got sentenced to meaningless probation. So yeah it did kinda make them bullet proof eh, what is the legal definition between murder and manslaughter. Don't agree with the penalty but the charge should matter. http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/PE/htm/PE.19.htm ETA: By charge, I don't want to be driving the spare car that my friend loaned me because mine is in the shop and we help eachother, then get charged with grand theft. Not the same situation but you can see what not following the legal definitions could lead to. ie, you really don't want to leave it up to mob rule or the guy pulling you over to decide your fate. |

What do you do with the money? How politically active are they? How connected? Do they have picks of some one fucking a goat? I was eating dinner with a politico in a nice restaurant and he offered me a drink. I declined, citing the fact I was the driver for this little excursion. He asked, "Where are we?" I reminded him and he replied without hesitation, "Aw hell, I can get you off for a DUI here." He wasn't rich, but he was connected. |

I sold 10mil worth of Electrical work in 2015. I get to keep 1.5% of it and the company gets the rest. After all the BS they clear 4 of the 10 I sold. I think some businesses make even less. I.E. Sell 10 mil to keep 400k. Either way I wouldn't consider 15mil afluenzic unless they were clearing 15 mil a year. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Flip side, if he was running a hedge fund clearing 15m a year net. That's significant. Every business is different. But even at 15m a year net, that's not enough to buy your way out in my opinion. Edit: bigger the business bigger the headaches too. |

How could they try (trial?) you once, convict, give sentence, then when you hit a certain age.. scratch that, life. Not a lawyer, don't want to get intertwined in the dog pile, just curious where that comes from. (I did add an edit after you posted) |

They said if he is moved over to adult court now the max he would serve is 120 days and serve the rest of his 8 years left of probation. If he screws up again in adult court then they could possibly make him serve 10 years for each death. Total of 40 years.

Oh my what they're going to do to them in Texas prisons. You talk about Princess Brides. Kid is supposed to me looking at zero extra time. Mama could get 10 years. What kinda of shit is that?

Just a note, it was mentioned on the radio this morning that the little shit went to a private rehab clinic as part of his sentence, mom and dad ponied up $350K for that country club atmosphere.
They also settled with 6 civil suits and have two more pending plus mom's legal bills are about to start with a vengeance. If the parents are not living on credit at the moment they are damn close to it. |

From what I saw I think they actually make siding and metal roofing. Thats manufacturing margins, not service margins. They probably clear 1.5 million or a little more before they pay the bank. In my industry (commercial equipment service) you make about 500k net profit on 10 million gross. Usually the bank payments are 4-600k out of that 500k. |
