Still explained that Justin realized that what he did to Ryan was wrong after the attack took place. But he tried to decompartmentalize and convince himself that he had done nothing wrong.
“Because he is such a truly phenomenal liar, he utterly believes his lies. Weirdly, I think Justin does feel remorse for Ryan but not in an overly sympathetic way. He feels remorse that this has led him to where he is and he regrets the situation he has got himself into,” Still added.
