Quotes

“The thing is, I’m not sorry. I’d be lying to you and to everyone else and to myself if I said I was sorry for anything… My motive was never money. I was power hungry. I’m not a good person.”

“Certainly I have regrets about what I’ve done, and I would have maybe changed everything and not disappointed the people who believed in me.”

“I’m grateful they gave me a second chance and an opportunity to set everything straight. It took until I got out to realize how I’d affected people. My story became bigger than I am, and translated into people wanting me to be sorry or otherwise I would be glamorizing crime.”

“I wasn’t selfless but I was not calculating in terms of personal gain. I never just wanted to be seen as somebody, I wanted to be kind of judged by a successful project. It wasn’t just an influencer culture thing, it wasn’t to be famous to get attention, I wanted to make my mark.”

“I’ve been portrayed like I wanted to be famous or I cared about the money and the clothes and whatnot, when in fact I was just trying build a project. I’d met people who were doing things, so I was like why can’t I do the same? I was trying to create my own opportunities.”

“I started off small, but then I wanted more control, to control what I do, because if you work for someone you don’t really get control of projects. It’s all about control.”
