That's ridiculous.
On a personal level - some time last year I technically committed a crime that pretty much ruined a friendship of mine [i don't know if you know the details, but for it's public knowledge, I believe I posted it in a blog of mine] - for me the regret is definitely not the being-caught aspect. Every time I think of what I did, I cringe. You learn and move on.
Of course that's not
always the case, as some criminals don't feel remorse, but neither is the opposite always the case.
