What is he regretting specifically?

"It's completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people"?

Yes, because it's a sign of guilt for most of the population and it greatly diminishes the possibility of it being a set up, or at least a jury being persuaded that it was.

I think what he did was praise worthy but it's going to be very hard to get out of it and he definitely didn't do himself any favors with the outburst.

What are you basing this opinion on?

Do we even know in what context the phrase was being used?

The context where he is being accused of killing a Healthcare CEO and blurts out exactly what someone that killed a Healthcare CEO would say.

I love the guy but common, you gotta be realistic about it.

Or what you might yell if an implausibly convenient stash of evidence had been planted on you?

That isn't my takeaway, at all.

Gonna need some sources and context on that one, Ace.

So what's happened here is you've formed a strong opinion, had some minor confirmation at some point, and projected that opinion onto everyone else as if they agree with you.
They don't.

Sure, some might, but generally people are trying to figure out if you are a troll or just stupid.

I'm so confused by this he didn't say "I'm glad the CEO is dead" he said "my arrest was unjust"

What is so incriminating about that?
