I think that Stanley "Tookie" Williams was truley sorry for his crimes that he commited.I believe this because he wrote children series that would tell young minds not to join gangs.It also says the danger of being in a gang.He also states that he prays for all the families and friends who lost or hurt someone due to gang violence.I really dont think that he was redeemed for his crime because of the fact that he doesnt even mention that he commited a crime in the apology letter.But if he is serious enough to wirte a children series,I feel that he is seriously sorry for creating a the crips gang.And that he wants to help end gang violence and gangs period.This is how i feel Tookie feels in the apology letter.
