If the defendant pleads guilty to any or all charges then whatever they say after the fact should be moot. Or, if they pleaded guilty to any or all charges and then lie about the charges they pleaded guilty to could, or should that effect their sentencing? If someone pleads guilty and then subsequently allocutes as to how they committed said crime, then what the fuck does it matter what they say the next day?

If I was the judge issuing their sentence I'd be inclined to issue the maximum. Spite really has no place in the law but, giving the maximum sentence allowed in a case like this seems to me to be the only way possible you can fix stupid. Oh, and remove 'stupid' from society.
