Being a rapist does not automatically mean being beyond help. It does not automatically mean one is mentally ill.
That is why people like the guy in the OP have been able to turn their lives around. They aren't mentally ill. They aren't beyond help. They have changed the way they live.
And that is why I get SO fucking angry when people try to demonize those who try to turn their life around. Simply because they committed act A does not mean they are incapable of changing their lives.
Am I saying that every rapist is capable of rehabilitation? ABSOLUTELY NOT. But what I am saying is that some are. And when YOU say that a criminal is automatically incapable of rehabilitation simply because of the crime they committed, it pisses me the fuck off. Because it is illogical bullshit.
