A prime example of how redemption arcs don't always work. Building a guy up as complete psychopath who has no problem with raping girls for literally half of the show's run and then pulling the rug out from under the entire fanbase by doing a 180° with his personality is just stupid, inconsistent writing.

It's a shame it has to be said, but he has to be cut regardless of how one might feel about him due to being painted in a sympathetic and redeeming light.
