Aventicus the Spookinator

I am writing this without consulting my lawyer because it is the right thing to do, regardless of the legal implications. In early August, I made a terrible mistake by claiming that Byron Donalds and Cory Mills were under federal investigation. I received this information from someone I trusted, but I accept the DOJ’s public statement that neither man is under investigation, which means that I bore false witness. As a Catholic, I take the Ten Commandments seriously. After speaking with my priest and going to confession, I have a moral obligation to publicly retract my statement and apologize. I apologize to Byron, Cory, and their families for what I said. To be clear, neither man nor their lawyers asked me to write this, and neither has ever contacted me about it. I sinned against my fellow man, and I am sorry. I ask God for forgiveness and pray that I can make amends. In Christ, James T. Fishback Charlottesville, VA
