I think if a rapist accepts their deep psychological problems and is in continual therapy for the rest of their lives for it? Sure, they can try to redeem themselves. My sister even forgave her rapist.
Unfortunately a lot of rapists are sociopaths, so they don't look at what they do as wrong. Like Polanski, they either make excuses, go on about how hard their life is or just don't care.
A lot of people don't realise this, and so they think that victims and their advocates that want to lock away certain rapists for life are heartless, vengeful harpies.

Far from it.
