some hope, that would help him get through this. >> mr. goodell, would you like to say anything today? >> yes, absolutely. i'd just let you know, what i did was unforgivable. i'm not asking for forgive inside. i hope i have the opportunity to bring some type of closure. i really am sorry about what happened. >> prosecutor. >> thank you, your honor. viviana toomey was young. she was beautiful. david goodell took her life because he could, because she simply is there, dared to want a life apart from him. there is no good in this man. there is no remorse in this man. he strangled her. when he strangled her, he

intended to kill her. in his purely instantly a violent predator offender. family can take no more pain, not enduring the agony of the trial, they said, we need to end. in deference to the family, it ends today. there is no sentence but the sentence of 45 years, the maximum return under the agreement. 45 years, thank you. . >> please rise. i know that you said that you were remorseful for what you did, but as i read the presentence investigation

report, you don't see vivianas a a person and that's raelgly the tragedy of this is you saw her as something that belonged to you as property. and i don't accept not even for a moment that because of your hard life and because of the lack of love that you received, that it give itself you license to do the to women. i know the state and the defense have agreed to a plea agreement. you don't deserve less. you have no conscience. have you no remorse. you have no soul. you pled here to murder and i do agree that, in fact, it was premeditated. you understand that you have to do 85% of 45 years before you are released on parole. however, because of your prior record, you will do the 45, most

likely, you will max out. he's remand back to the -- >> goodell will not return to the bergen county jail until the details of his transfer to state prison are finalized. he claims to be looking forward to that day. >> my homies will be there. my family will come see me. everything will be good, sit back, kick back, whatever, a tv, a cooler in the room, cook, eat, go out in the yard, blow it down, you know what i mean, kick with your homies.
