Yes, his sins could be forgiven - of course. But if it was up to me he would spend life without parole in gaol, or face the death penalty - that's the debt I believe he owes to society. But that fact doesn't mean he can't or shouldn't come to God, after all Moses was a murderer and he was accepted by God and made a prophet of God.
