There are people who say, 'Oh, he's a crook.' But I'm not a crook.

My dad wasn't a gangster, and he wasn't a criminal, but he sure liked to rub padded shoulders with them.

I always watched movies and rooted for the bad guys, you know? I've always been that kind of guy. I still hold some respect for criminals that are good at their jobs.

We've had crooks from the beginning of time... it's always very interesting and troubling why good people do bad things.

There's a difference between criminals and crooks. Crooks steal. Criminals blow some guy's brains out. I'm a crook.

I am no longer a criminal. I gave up that practice years ago.

I am not a crook.

I know me, and those close to me know me. But sadly, the outside world thinks I'm some kind of a crook.

I'm sure I took some licks at the system, and at trials and lawyers in general. I've seen enough of them for so many years both as a cop and a defendant in defamation cases.

I was a prosecutor and an FBI agent for many, many years.
