He can say that with absolute confidence, but then he falters and looks away. A lifelong criminal, he's always accepted that he might wind up locked up forever or even get the electric chair, but he was never prepared for this. He knows that if you're sentenced, you keep your mouth shut and do your time and listen to whatever your Family says about what else you should do.
He hasn't the faintest clue what a good gangster is supposed to do in a situation like this. ...Probably, they're not supposed to wind up in this situation at all. There's no honor or toughness about this.
He sighs and looks around to make sure nobody's watching. "...You tried to escape at all?"
He doesn't like it, but now it seems like it may be the only option. A risky one, but the only one.
