He expressed concern over how the publicity could affect his two daughters, ages 8 and 6, who live in Poway.

"The biggest frustration of the whole thing is them going to school and hearing things," he said. "I'm a man, I'm grown up, I can handle (adverse publicity), but these are two innocent girls that have to maybe hear things at school or in the public. They're pretty thick-skinned. They'll deal with it, they know who their dad is. That's really the only thing that's important with me."
