Episode description
Achoo!! Grab a tissue because it turns out "Affluenza" isn't even a real psychiatric illness, but it spread like a virus, when a Texas teenager used it to defend killing four people and injuring nine others while driving drunk.
Ethan Couch, now 26, claimed he didn't know right from wrong due to his family's wealth and is scheduled to finish probation this month, for the 2013 deadly accident.
From running to Mexico to making a psuedo-science term mainstream, join us for more on the case in the latest episode of Gulf Coast Confidential, "Achoo!! Affluenza or BS: Ethan Couch."
