He has admitted his wrong doings and made efforts to change whilst in prison. I doubt he will go straight back to a life even remotely close to before. He was doing good in prison for other inmates and I imagine he will continue doing the same now he has this second chance.

What the future holds for someone who was pardoned is likely decided based on very different rationalization compared to how one acts while serving a lifetime prison sentence.

Whilst I understand your point of view that the change in circumstances can change how someone decides to act, I don't believe there is much history to show someone who gained a surprising second chance outside of prison has gone back to their previous life.

Of course, there will be an outlier. I didn't state no history. One person doing wrong after being released shouldn't mean no one gets released.

No but recidivism should be factored into such a decision.

It's vindication of political violence that's the problem. If political violence is sanctioned, then there is no law.
