I don't know if it would have mattered if he had found Christ before, there is no guarantee if behaving better just because we find Christ ( even though we probably should).
I remember that old saying that " we are not a museum of saints but a hospital for sinners" and maybe that is why so many that hit rock bottom find Christ.
We he did was horrific and I am sure he KNEW it was wrong BUT what happened was a result of a life long path that lead to the final disastrous result.
There can be a transformation process when we find Christ BUT it only happens when we give ourselves over to Him.
I hope that he realizes that and does that.
