The past few days have been difficult and humbling, and I’m truly sorry for the unwanted attention my Sunday evening in Denver has brought to the community

“I’m sorry I got caught”

Absolutely. Before the video, she lied about it and downplayed it and accused others about falsifying the accusations. Suddenly there's video and now she "apologizes" (she didn't really, it was a fake apology, she didn't say she's sorry for what she did, she basic said she's sorry others found it offensive, that's not an apology) and she's entirely quiet on all the lying she did beforehand about saying it was overblown.

She didn't even really say she was sorry others found it offensive, it came off as saying she was sorry she got caught. I suppose that shouldn't be surprising given the GQP. None of them have any shame and are only "sorry" when they get caught.
