Man Who Attacked Nancy Kerrigan in 1994 Apologizes: ‘I’m a Different Person’

The man who whacked Nancy Kerrigan in the knee is speaking out on TV for the first time in two decades about the attack seen around the world. Shane Stant attacked the Olympic figure skater with a collapsible baton 24 years ago. “The truth is I just thought, well, I’ll do this and kind of go on with my life and she'll go on with her life,” he told Inside Edition. He said there was talk of doing much worse to Kerrigan, who was 24 back in January 1994 at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships. #InsideEdition

She was not treated badly, she behaved badly for slacking off, skipping practice, being late for competitions, and not checking her equipment. She had a bad lazy attitude and was given a lot more leniency than the other skaters before the attack happened. The judges even overlooked the fact that her performances lacked artistry (a mandatory requirement at the time) and gave her higher marks than she really deserved because her jumps and spins were good.

[@justathoughtmyfriend1403]

What was portrayed in the film was that Tonya in the beginning knew about the plan to mail death threat letters to Kerrigan, which was planned by Jeff's delusional friend Shawn with Jeff's funding. (Tonya herself was sent a death threat initially before the whole letter plan, which Jeff later on found out Shawn made the false death threat for some insane reason from his plan.) When things got serious with her preparation for the olympics, she detached herself from the planning, caring less about what they were doing so she could focus on practicing. When it came to the actual attacked, it was portrayed that Jeff and Tonya didn't know that Shawn had planned, along with hired hit man Derrick and his nephew Shane (in the clip), to bash Kerrigan's knee. So most likely, she knew something was up in relation to doing "something" to Kerrigan. Whether she really knew about only the letters or knew something about the attack since the accounts of the participants seems to change may never be known.The film gave off a vibe that Jeff's friend Shawn was insecure, delusional, and crazy and that he was the mastermind of the whole thing, but put the blame on Jeff and Tonya was caught in the crossfire and paid a great debt for it. Guilty by association. I watched a documentary with Shane and he was claiming more that Tonya did know about him and the plan. This interivew, it's like he is avoiding revealing the truth all together. Maybe he just wants to put it aside and not blame anyone and move on.

I'm glad this guy has turned his life around, but 15 months for an assault isn't enough in my opinion. If it hadn't been pre-meditated or was the result of a scuffle etc, I could see it. But, muscle for hire is absolutely immoral! They should have put him away for much longer. Your choices in life have consequences.

[@leon4000]

True, but sometimes you don't get what you think he deserved. And it's a long time ago. All that is left is to move on.

[@originalblerd]

How much time do you think he should’ve done? 15 months is over a year. Yes it was wrong and inexcusable but Nancy wasn’t crippled or irreparably harmed, she competed at the Olympics less than 2 months later and won silver.

He is honest, to his knowledge, Tanya didn't know. I believe she knew, and that interview she did recently she knew in my opinion. She wouldn't have overheard something and then told a reporter that.

[@elizabethjanicki5331]

He closes his eyes every time they ask him if Tanya was involved or if he met her or knows her. So he is lying. She was involved she did know.
