Patterson had wanted to enter a guilty plea from day 1.

Lawyers wanted to do their due diligence.

He has always been consistent in his statements and what he wanted to do (plead guilty). It is free, knowing, and voluntary.

Glad to see some form of emotion from JP, whether it's for his victims or himself is open to interpretation.

Patterson's attorney Richard Jones says Patterson has wanted to enter a plea from the day they met him.

Patterson say, "Bye Jayme" as he left the courtroom.
