Today in court, attorney Joey Langston addressed his "fall from grace."

Folo has good updates, including his statement:

I have said over the last 11 months nine days I'm sorry to so many people in so many different ways, I don't think I've ever been able to find the words to communicate how sorry I am. I said I am embarrassed and ashamed and I really am. … the pain and suffering I've caused to people around me who didn't deserve it. I've really struggled with what I've done, I've struggled with it spiritually and other ways. I've studied how people handle a fall from grace. There is really only one way: accept responsibility for what I've done. I try to identify those I've hurt with my senseless act and make it all right with them. It's been frustrating. This is not a tragedy of nature… and I had a role in it. It changed the life of people around me … forever. I can't imagine the sadness ever going away (choked up). I broke one of my own rules. For 25 years I practiced law and told all the young lawyers who came through my office that there is no client, there is no case worth placing your bar license at risk. But I did that.
