Episode Details

After my daughter's basketball game, someone pulled me aside and said I work with "criminals." Years ago, I would've argued. Now I listen. Before prison, I would've said the same thing. A DOJ press release tells one side. That's it.

I asked him how he saw me—as a father, a husband. Then I asked how he would've seen me 20 years ago reading my indictment. The answer was obvious. People aren't frozen at their worst moment. I've watched men rebuild after creating their own crisis. I'm proud to call them friends.

Judges—formal or informal—should look at the record being built today, not headlines from the past.
