Harm can be inflicted regardless of shame. One doesn’t need to be ashamed of a crime, for instance, for the consequences of being found out to carry weight. Hell, some of these “untouchables” probably brag about the stuff they get away with (at least in certain circles). It’s the inauthentic apology angle: “You’re not sorry for what you did, you’re sorry you got caught.”
Not necessarily. Fear is also an excellent motivator.
