And that's what I have been experiencing is guilt.

And now 60 years later, I am 72 years old and we have not talked about this car and I feel guilt.

And while I feel this guilt, I also continue to remember the thing I have been taught.

If you tell the truth, the truth will set you free.

I am a talker, and I've got to tell somebody.

So I am here tonight to tell you I did it.

I wrecked the car.

I faked the illness.

Now please set me free.
