"but I think that he, like OJ, Scott Peterson, and others can just lie, and not even think twice about the consequences..."
Nah. Payola?
In Wilson's case....probably a little of both.
I am sure the payola part is hugh...but, I keep hearing what a peacock this guy is...and I know that certain personality disorders, like those with visions of grandeur, just do NOT see things the way they are...but, like they want them to be...
I think that pathological liars just get so good at it...that they "fool themselves"....but, in Wilson's case, I am sure he is aware of all of this, and loving every second of it...his ego craves it.
