He did it for good press. Which means ultimately it was for himself.
How can you know?
you actually believe he did it out of the kindness of his heart? the good deed will go on record and the judge will show leniency in sentencing. You would have to be crazy otherwise
You have to have an agenda of trying to get people not to believe anyone does anything good just the as it looks. His sentencing was long ago over, so you had that wrong. If you don't follow the mafia but just come on to sway opinions in a direction you set you wind up looking foolish.
