I have been called a cynic before... but I don't believe in rehabilitation; a white-collar criminal, maybe, but never a violent criminal, nuts or not!
I believe that God can restore people and He does. That's one of His jobs! If she or any other person turned to Him, repented, turned their lives around, then all this is possible. There IS a God factor, but I don't know if that's what happened in her case. If she's a lesbian, she certainly isn't following His principles. But, I won't judge her because I don't know all the facts.
