Kerry Sherck, a journalist with the CT Law Tribune reported as follows:
"Former White House lawyer J. Michael Farren could convincingly "assert appellate rights and make appellate arguments," a Superior Court judge said. But he couldn't muster the three words the judge wanted to hear: "I am sorry."
And so, more than four years after Farren brutally attacked his then-wife with a flashlight in their New Canaan home, and moments after he addressed the court without issuing an apology, Farren was sentenced to 15 years in prison on Sept. 11. He had been convicted of attempted murder in July.
Justice Richard Comerford took note of Farren's apparent lack of contrition as he issued the sentence. "I never heard him say I'm sorry," the judge said. "Not, 'I'm sorry to this woman,' not, 'I'm sorry to my children.' That is bizarre and rather tragic and speaks volumes to me about what type of individual we're dealing with."
