What's to regret? She's rich and retired now. Has there even been a judge that doesn't take bribes.?
Judge who sentenced Ethan Couch to 10 years' probation has no regrets
feb 22 2016 Paying her cleaner, relaxing in the Texas sunshine and doing her shopping, this is the retired judge who sentenced affluenza teen Ethan Couch to ten years' probation following his conviction on four counts of manslaughter in April 2014.
Now, despite Couch, 18, being transferred to the adult justice system following his violating probation by skipping off to Mexico, Daily Mail Online can exclusively reveal that Judge Jean Boyd, 63, has no regrets about the 'slap-on-the-wrist' punishment.
Speaking outside the white stucco home she shares with her dentist husband John, also 63, she claimed people who 'don't have all the facts' simply don't understand the logic behind her decision.
Boyd, retired immediately after the Couch case and has never before spoken publicly about his sentence.
Boyd has been widely criticized over her handling of the case and the soft sentence handed down – particularly as prosecutor Riley Shaw had asked for a 20-year jail term during the trial.
