Tonya Couch has been spotted at a bar called Honky Tonk Woman outside Fort Worth. Earlier this year, Couch fled the U.S. with her notorious son, whose lawyers said his family spoiled him so much, he was unable to know the difference between right and wrong.
Her new place of employment is a far cry from the lavish and opulent lifestyle she used to live.
The 49-year-old mom is awaiting trial after allegedly helping her now 19-year-old son violating probation and escape to Mexico earlier this year.
They were both captured in the resort town of Puerto Vallarta after an international search.

Ethan Couch mowed down 4 people while driving drunk in 2013, and did not serve a single day in prison in that case, is now serving two years behind bars for violating probation.
