His religion is none of my business unless he's using it as a reason, excuse, or weapon.

He's using his co-called conversion to try to limit the damage to his reputation and his wallet. In this case, his religion is none of my business, and it has nothing to do w/ the case--his guilt or his sentence. They do give lesser sentences to people who show remorse, though, so maybe the judge will think something of his 11th hour conversion.

I don't believe a word of it. If he had truly "found Jesus", he wouldn't be talking about it for fear that it would sound like he thinks that his new-found faith excuses his previous behavior. If he had truly found Jesus, he would understand that confession includes being truly sorry for what you've done, confessing that sin, and making restitution. In this case, restitution means jail, since he can't bring back the dogs from the dead.

He's full of beans.
