Not only are they sorry they got caught, but the next thing they will often state is that they are sorry for the “damage” they did to themselves.
I first noticed this long ago in cheaters who are caught. When prompted to make a statement saying they are “sorry”, the first thing that comes out is how they are sorry about what it has done to them. It’s only relatively recently that it’s become more fashionable for notable violators to “voluntarily” state they are sorry for the impact their actions had on others.
