Is This Scam Artist Ready to Come Clean?

Michael is an admitted liar who now claims he’s a changed man and wants to “come clean” about all his past lies and deceptions, including some that have landed him behind bars. In 2016, Michael began telling people he was a combat veteran, a former Sergeant/helicopter pilot in the Marines, and that his “bomb-sniffing dog” had recently died after being hit by a car. He also told people his wife died of cancer and left him to care for their two children. Michael now admits these were all lies -- but that he enjoyed the attention that came with being a wounded veteran. Michael says he desperately wants to make amends to those he has deceived. He gets his chance when he comes face-to-face with three of his victims. But is Michael sincere in his apology?
