The guys obviously biased. Lots of parents out there that will love their children and see past the terrible things they do. Even if what Brock did was terrible I admit I can't entirely fault a parent for not wanting to see their kids life destroyed.

I actually couldn't help but think of Cersei as an example. There's a few others I've heard to. Like there was one case a while back where a young girl accused her father of molesting her, he went to jail for quite a few years and she eventually ended up admitting she had lied because she was upset her father was never around, when he did get out of jail he met his daughter with flowers and told her he still wanted to have a relationship with her.

Some parents will love their kids and stand by them no matter what. Maybe the father in this case was a poor role model, though based on this alone I can understand if he just doesn't want to see his sons life destroyed.

It'd be like if the father or mother of the girl raped said they wanted Brock to get the death penalty, would you really be able to blame them for despising the person who hurt their daughter like that?

That does touch on one thing that bugs me in general. Rich people being able to get such low sentences when poor people are thrown under the bus for much less.

Affluenza is the biggest load of shit I've ever heard.

Basically: "we're so rich we don't realize there's consequences for our actions"

The court systems solution to that: make it so they don't have to deal with consequences for their actions.

Like when you see a rich kid who gets drunk, drives and kills a family get no jail time, but then someone who steals food because they're broke and starving go to jail something is seriously wrong there.

Maybe his son needs some quick action behind a dumpster

Yep, the standards are messed up.

Whether it's racism or classism or both you really got to tilt your head

Hopefully the son gets his "action" in Prison. That'd make the sentence more acceptable.

DROP THE SOAP! DROP THE SOAP!

Did you guys see the Corey Batey case? Idential facts, defendant has darker skin... 15 years, totally crazy... I can't believe how powerful the double standards are at play.

The Judge in this case has a history of doing this with offenders and it seems it's "rich win" "poor lose" or "brown skin you lose."

There is a pettition against him being raised but it won't do any good.

Well, the 14 year didn't commit rape, just intended, that usually wouldn't get the same sentence as actual rape for some reason.
