last part is the biggest one for me. dude genuinely seems to feel remorse and wants to right his wrongs. could it all be a PR act? sure, but i'd rather give someone the benefit of the doubt. can't expect rehabilitation if you just write them off.

My kids went to the same school as his. Watching him interact with his child and other children in a peaceful environment gave me insight to his humanity. He was also very generous to the school (not all celebrities were;some even were jerks about it), and like I said, the kids and their parents ate it up when he would have football catches with the kids. He could have simply laid low, and not be a presence at the school - bc there were parents who weren’t happy that his child was accepted - but he chose to be part of the community, and I respected his ability to be humble, and blend in with the families.
