What if they pled guilty and then gave their life to save someone else? Whether it be a "push them out of the way" kind of thing or donating an organ that without it would kill them?
You asked a general statement and did not specify as to if they were redeeming themselves from their own guilt or whether the justice system that society designed justifies for the crimes they committed. In other words is being jailed an accurate representation of the law being fulfilled.
Redemption requires recompense. The material harm of these crimes is difficult to quantify. What is the value of bodily integrity or an individual life? Unless or until that is objectively and sufficiently established, it is impossible to identify the threshold for ammends.
