Would you consider this person to be a good man?

Yes I do cause he was able to change his ways and become a Godly like Christian by always being able to risk his own life just to save the others and that he wanted to become a Born Again Christian after he realized what he has done was wrong, I can never picture seeing real estate agents, lawyers, schoolteachers, school coaches, doctors, dentists and insurance agents doing what Eddie has done in prison cause they're so selfish and full of themselves.
