I'm curious; what have you heard that makes these sound like lesser crimes? I feel like from my reading of this, it sounds like he's admitting to being pretty dishonest in a lot of ways (though obviously weasel-worded), so I'm curious what more we're not hearing about; if this is supposed to make him look better, then whatever's left must be pretty bad!
I don't want to spread rumors, and everything I've heard has been second hand at best. I just know that there were a lot of good people at Amicus, and a lot of good organizations relying on the software, and now they are all screwed.
