"Today, I took responsibility for a series of mistakes I made several years ago,” Teresa, 41, said in a statement after pleading guilty.
“I have said throughout that I respect the legal process and thus I intend to address the court directly at sentencing. I will describe the choices I made, continue to take responsibility for my decisions, and express my remorse to Judge Salas and the public.”
“I am heartbroken that this is affecting my family — especially my four young daughters, who mean more to me than anything in the world,” said the mom of Gia, Gabriella, 9, Milania, 8, and Audriana, 4.
“Beyond this, I do not intend to speak specifically about the case outside of court, at the recommendation of my attorney and out of deference to the government and our legal system.”
