Who cares if the kids dad is a judge? How relevant is that? Why not be fair and report "plumbers son" or "hairdressers son" or "taxi drivers son?" Morons.

Thank you so much for making that point!! This isn't the tabloid news. I happen to know this family and they are wonderful. Even the son that got in a little trouble. What did you do when you were 18 in college? There is only one relevance to his father being a judge, His butts in twice as much trouble. I think he will learn his lesson :)

Do you understand the difference between a "Lawmaker" and a plumber?....It wouldn't be relevant to report a "taxi drivers son", would it?....Yes, it does matter and we want to know!

lol Get a life. We know all you elderly folks with nothing better to do in Ocean Shores need to have your nose in peoples business. I guess you do need this kind of news. I could understand the point if it was the judge himself but not the kid. Kids Are Kids , we as parents can not hold there hands all there lifes. When there 18 they have there own identity. Why bring the family down at that point?

Two mistakes in your reasoning......I am not "elderly" and if I was that means nothing other than more judgement and responsibilty.
If you don't want to know,.......Don't read!
It's up to me whether I judge him for his familys behavior.
