I don't know about you, but these criminals who apologize in court for their past transgressions are making me a little sick. Is there anyone who take them seriously? Hearing Bernie Madoff, plead guilty and his less than heartfelt apology to the victims who lost their life-savings to his avarice and seeing his contrite demeanor in front of the judge was not at all convincing. This has to be just a manipulation to preserve the wealth in his family's name, which hopefully will never come to pass.
I am sorry- the performance was not that good. It sure isn't going to help his reputation in any way. His wife, children, and grandchildren have a lot of baggage to deal with, while Bernie will be living out his life in some federal prison. How could he do that to them?
OJ Simpson is another one who cried like a baby in court saying, he did not know he was doing anything illegal. What the heck?! Do you know he still receives a pension from the National Football League? Even worse, he does not have to give a cent of that to the Brown or Goodman family toward the 30 million dollars he still owes them. What kind of life has he given his children? Maybe, his crime this time was not horrible, but at least his cocky attitude will be shelved for awhile.
So, how about Rob Blagoijevich and his media tour or speech to the Illinois Legislature before he was impeached? Do I really have to say more?
Until next time....
