A Mississippi man headed to jail after confessing to burning a cross outside the home of an African-American family said he wishes he could take it all back.
Louis Revette, 38, was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison on Tuesday, months after he and a co-conspirator pleaded guilty to carrying out the racist act. Revette was convicted on one count of using fire in the commission of a federal felony, interference with housing rights and a federal civil rights violation in the October 2017 incident, the Clarion Ledger reported.
