Ask not what the Criminal Justice system can do for you...

A judge sentenced Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel to 20 years to life in prison Thursday for the 1975 killing of his teen-age neighbor, Martha Moxley.

Skakel tearfully insisted he is innocent: "I have been accused of a crime. I would love to be able to say that I did it, but I cannot do that."

Why would someone LOVE to say they did it? Certainly an odd choice of words.
