    I don't even know where to begin...

    However I'm happy that her and her disgusting son will get the book thrown at them this time...

    The disgusting mother, when it's all said and done will get a year, and the son once his probation is revoked will get at least 10.

    I'm glad they pulled this little stunt because it ironically allowed justice (the kid screwed it all up now he is going to hang for his nonsense, his whole cushy sentence is gone and mommy is going to prison too) ......

    I'm happy these rat(*)(*)(*)(*)s - er at least half of them are in custody... :clapping:

    OK, first off I find no redeeming value in this woman. That said, please explain the crime she committed. I don't think there is one. Prior to crossing the border, which the idiot did himself, there was no crime.

    Mr affluneza is an adult, his legal issues are his and no one else is privy to that. His probation office cannot and did not tell Mrs Mom affluneza what Mr affluneza could do as it relates to travel. For all Mrs Mom affluneza knew travel was agreed to.

    Cheers

    Aiding and abetting? Harboring a fugitive? Conspiracy to flee justic? She's criminal scum as is her hideous son.

    Just thinking technically here:

    The crime of aiding, if it happened, happened in Mexico. Mexico is not within the jurisdiction of the state of Texas.

    Did Mr affluenza require aid to cross the border? Was he even a fugitive prior to crossing the border? It seems that his movements within the state of Texas were legal, right up to the border. He made the decision to jump across,

    Is it realistic that legally, with official knowledge, Mrs Mom affluenza know the status of Mr affluenza? I don't think so.

    Is there an affirmative obligation for a citizen to know the legal status of another adult? No.

    Cheers

    Harboring a fugitive?
    Meaning that you are helping them to hide out or keeping them in your home etc...


    Harboring a fugitive refers to the crime of knowingly hiding a wanted criminal from the authorities.
    Federal and state laws, which vary by state, govern the crime of harboring a fugitive.
    Although supplying funds may make one an accessory after the fact, supplying financial assistance to a fugitive does not rise to the level of harboring or concealing.

    The federal statute, 18 U.S.C. § 1071, requires proof of four elements: (1) proof that a federal warrant had been issued for the fugitive' s arrest, (2) that the accused had knowledge that a warrant had been issued, (3) that the accused actually harbored or concealed the fugitive, and (4) that the accused intended to prevent the fugitive' s discovery or arrest.

    Are you drinking ? Your argument is absurd !! Are you supposing that you can only aid a fugitive to escape US Justice in the US ? Is getting across the border with Mexico somehow a safe zone, where you are no longer aiding and abetting a fugitive from US Justice? Why have extradition treaties then ?

    Seriously, are you kidding? The mother knew exactly what her little baby boy's situation was - he violated his probation, she got scared that they'd punish her little boy and she plotted to get him out of the country and did it....it's called aiding and abetting.

    The mom may serve months and be fined the son will probably not set in jail at all. If you think that he doesn't have one of the best attorneys in the state backing him up then America is in for a shock. Daddy will have to pay big bucks that's about it.

    Obstruction, aiding and abetting, and there has too be something else they can her for. Lucky for her being an ******** is not a criminal offense. That said though if ********ness was a crime we would never have enough jail cells to fit all of the ********s in.

    they have tons of money, I doubt they will get the max... and even if they do, they will be rich when they get out, not like they have to work hard to save for retirement or anything

    Interesting, no federal warrant....
    No warrant, ergo, no prior knowledge...
    All else was outside jurisdiction....

    The lady will go free....

    Can we prove mom pushed the son across the border? He was legal to that point. Crossing was his choice.
