She isn't making excuses. She appears to be acknowledging she did wrong. She has grown up; she is raising a family. She appears to have turned her life around. She offers insight into the immaturity of a 16 year old girl. Where is Joey Buttafucco these days? He profited off his wife's pain but if he hadn't acted so Clintonesque perhaps there would not have been a shooting.
At the time, I thought Amy Fisher was a lost soul, beyond redemption. I hope I was wrong. Do you hope otherwise?
I think she is trying to make excuses and at the same time profit from her crime.
