This was a terrible lapse in judgment, one I have urged others not to make, and I take full responsibility for it," he said in a statement after the crash."I want to offer sincere apologies to my family, friends, colleagues, and the people of the 131st Assembly District. I fully recognize the severity of the situation and I am profoundly sorry.""There is no excuse and no justification for what occurred Tuesday evening.
