(CNN)To the families of his victims, Texas teen Ethan Couch got off easy with 10 years' probation after killing four people while driving drunk.

Recently, a video turned up on social media that allegedly showed Couch at a party where alcohol was served, CNN affiliate KTVT reported. The video shows Couch standing alongside peers playing beer pong.

Now his probation officer can't find him or his mother, Couch's attorneys said.

"The juvenile probation officer has been unable to make contact with Ethan or his mother with whom he has been residing," attorneys Scott Brown and William Reagan Wynn said this week.

Under the terms of his probation, Couch isn't supposed to lose contact with his probation officer, the lawyer said, and the judge has issued a directive to arrest the teenager.

oh, but it's worse -

his mother took him into hiding; neither can be found.

maybe he's in Mexico, Cabo San Lucas, for the long winter break? With Mumsie ?

When you have that much money/influence to escape that type of murder charge, I doubt he or his mother will do any jail time.

what i couldn't understand, at the first 'problem',

was that

he not have a paid handler on him 24/7.

Why would he? He killed 4 people drunk driving and got 10 years probation. That kind of juice, it was a matter of time before he did something else. The rules are altered for folks like him.
