The search for Ethan Couch continued Saturday, eight days after he missed a probation check-in that was required under terms of his sentencing for killing four people while driving drunk in 2013.

Authorities warn that the 18-year-old, who got 10 years’ probation when sentenced last year, is making matters worse by not turning himself in.

“Every day he’s gone, things are going to get worse for him,” Tarrant County Sheriff Dee Anderson said Saturday. “We don’t care where he goes, how far he goes. He’s going to be looking over his shoulder wherever he is.”

With a $5,000 reward now up for grabs, people across the country are getting involved in the search. The Tarrant County sheriff’s office has received dozens of tips a day — emails, phone calls, tweets, Facebook messages — from people who think they’ve seen Couch or claim to know where he might be, Anderson said.

The judge should be kicked off the bench.

The judge, Jean Boyd, has since retired. And I'm thinking that she has more income than just her pension check. In other words, I think she was bribed. There is no other logical explanation.

“The judge should be kicked off the bench.”

The judge immediately “retired” after this case, presumably because dad paid him off with enough money to last the rest of his life.

She retired right after this case. There’s clearly one law for the wealthy (Couches, Kennedys, Bushes, etc) and another for the rest of society.
