Default Ducks owner apologizes for lying

Quote:
Broadcom Corp. co-founder Henry Samueli has apologized for lying to the Securities and Exchange Commission during its probe of stock options backdating at the chip maker.

Samueli's two-page written apology, filed Monday with U.S. District Judge Cormac Carney, stands as the first public comment on the case by the billionaire philanthropist and owner of the NHL's Anaheim Ducks.
Samueli is scheduled for sentencing on Sept. 8 on a felony count of lying to the regulatory agency.

You'll never see a person so contrite as one who has been busted lying.

I really liked:

Quote:
"I have spent days and nights thinking about why I said what I did in front of the SEC on May 25, 2007," he wrote. "My statement before the SEC was completely out of character for me. I have tried to live my life in a way that showed that hard work and honesty were their own reward."
Of course, he was lying about a criminal acts he committed, including conspiracy, fraud and drug charges, but it's THAT lie to the court that feels damn bad about.

I love how the article kind of white washes over his character flaws and found the need to mention his philanthropy
