I see you get upset rather easily.
You seem to be under the influence of a misconception: The people who have been taken (rightly or wrongly) by this Ashley Smith's story are really only wishing to say positive things about her and her effort. They (including myself) are in no way giving any acknowledgment or respect to Nichols. I think you and others are under the impression that many here think he's had some kind of conversion. Nothing could be further from the truth. We think he's as worthless as you do, and know that he'll most likely say anything now that suits his purpose. His family and friends are apparently kidding themselves about him.
Nichols is a rat and he'll get his (unless he get's Robert Blake's jury) ;-).
Take it easy.
