1. Amy Locane-Bovenizer:

   You think about second chances, for me, it was my second chance. I had done everything humanly possible since the day of the accident — just everything humanly possible — to make amends. To get my act together. And I guess for the judge to recognize that, that’s probably by what I meant [it was a blessing]. But it was a gift.

   Accepting responsibility is the first step in working to make amends for my lapse in judgement.

ROLLING IN THE MUCK IS NOT THE BEST WAY OF GETTING CLEAN.

5. Tonya Harding:
