CRAP JUDGE: White Rich Teen Gets 10yrs in Luxury Rehab, Black Teen Gets 10yrs in Prison

The judge in the controversial Ethan Couch case hasn’t always been so lenient and last year sentenced a 14-year-old African American boy to 10 years in prison after he punched someone and they died.

Judge Jean Boyd is facing calls to be removed from her position after she handed out the remarkably lenient sentence – 10 years probation – to 16-year-old Couch who killed four people and injured seven while on a drunken joyride.

The case has attracted nationwide attention after a psychologist claimed that Couch suffered from ‘affluenza’, a condition in which his wealth and privilege kept him from understanding the consequences of his actions.

Last year Judge Boyd sentenced a 14-year old boy to prison for killing one person with a powerful punch. The teenage suspect’s name was never made public since he was prosecuted as a juvenile.

‘Just after 10 p.m. on October 6, the teen was riding in a Cadillac with two friends when he suddenly jumped out of the vehicle in the 1700 block of Vaughn Avenue and punched [Mark] Gregory, who was 5-foot-1 and weighed 106 pounds,’ said the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office in a statement.

‘Gregory’s head struck the pavement and he died two days later.’

The 14-year-old boy admitted to the crime and never expressed remorse for the murder, according to prosecutors.

Gregory’s mother, Anita Lauterbach, said she remembers Judge Boyd pushing for rehabilitation, much like in the Couch case.

‘She wanted to send him to one of these special places in Arizona, but no one would take him,’ Lauterbach told WFAA.

‘We were horrified. We just couldn’t believe it. The district attorney and I were just sitting on pins and needles. But, when nobody would take him, [it was] a sigh of relief.’

Lauterbach said she’s still disgusted at her experience with the judge.

‘She’s too easy on them,’ Lauterbach said. ‘I don’t think she needs to be sitting on that bench.’

Boyd is expected to retire next year, but a petition has been launched at change.org demanding that Texas Governor Rick Perry remove her from the bench immediately.
