The courtroom was packed.

But Noah did not.
He wanted the truth.
Richard stood before the judge.
His lawyers argued that he had not known about the abuse.
Richard interrupted them.
“Stop.”
The courtroom became silent.
Richard looked at the judge.
“I was responsible.”
His lawyers stared at him.
Richard continued.
“I may not have known every detail. But I created the environment that allowed it to happen.”
He looked toward the families.
“I valued results more than people.”
Then he looked at Noah.
“And I failed my son before I ever met him.”
Noah said nothing.
