We are a guilty party from a technical point of view.

We are a generation of women that has listened to the much louder voices of parents, teachers, employers, husbands and children while our own voices were small or muffled or totally ignored. Aging Out Loud gives us permission to not only listen to that voice but heed its warnings, laugh at its jokes and follow its directions, without guilt and without looking back.

The villager, born humbly and bred hard, Content his wealth, and poverty his guard, In action simply just, in conscience clear, By guilt untainted, undisturb'd by fear, His means but scanty, and his wants but few, Labor his business, and his pleasure too, Enjoys more comforts in a single hour Than ages give the wretch condemn'd to power.

Men the most infamous are fond of fame, And those who fear not guilt yet start at shame.

The only shame is to have none.

Much of what the government has attached to its sentencing memo is disputed by the defense. It is the government's effort to obtain through sentencing what it didn't obtain through the guilty plea. We intend to file something in response next week. We believe that the court will give fair consideration to our arguments at sentencing.

Mr. Bates pled guilty to a count of manslaughter, two counts of assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury and guilty to making criminal threats and to transportation of more than one ounce of marijuana. They are all felonies.
