“I think that my whole life, I would have to live with knowing what I did or didn't do. I'm trying to do the right thing. I think that this is what's going to make me happy in the end. I'm the one who has to live with it for the rest of my life. I put myself in this position, an adult position, so I have to be an adult and take responsibility for what I did.
