B. wanted to express regret to people who attended the hearing, because the graves of their loved ones had been destroyed. Their reactions showed that they were not expecting that. “Even if he apologizes a hundred thousand times for destroying that grave, I won’t accept it,” said a woman whose husband’s grave was vandalized. The public prosecutor found the expression of regret inappropriate, because B. denies most of the destruction and always invokes his right to remain silent when questioned.
