    He is going to regret that for a long time. If he had screamed “I didn’t do it” instead, he would probably be out already.

      What is he regretting specifically?

      “It’s completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people”?

        Yes, because it’s a sign of guilt for most of the population and it greatly diminishes the possibility of it being a set up, or at least a jury being persuaded that it was.

        I think what he did was praise worthy but it’s going to be very hard to get out of it and he definitely didn’t do himself any favors with the outburst.

          What are you basing this opinion on?

          Do we even know in what context the phrase was being used?
