LET THE TRUTH BE TOLD

I didn't say there was. I simply said I hope he serves his time in prison in a dignified manner. And I'm not sure what "truth" you're talking about. I think the truth is out there. Regis viewed child pornophaphy, and he's going to jail for most likely 8 years for it. I realize some people are upset because he didn't plead guilty to the charges, and instead pled no contest, as such not admitting guilt and getting a reduced sentence. But, I don't think there is anybody on here, or anywhere, that wouldn't have done the same thing if they were guilty, and if the evidence against them was so great that there was no way they would get a not guilty verdict in a jury trial.
Regis obviously had money. So, I wonder what people would have thought had he gone the OJ route and actually taken the case to trial, and won. Would people think any more of him then because a jury of his "peers" found him not guilty?
Anyway, I'm not defending Regis, nor am I condoning his conduct in the past because it was clearly wrong. But, that doesn't mean that going forward that he can't right himself and see the error in his ways. Of course, any time I hear of a criminal in prison that's supposedly turned over a new leaf, I'm very skeptical because usually there's something in it for them (early parole).
