As for "it is a message of regret". If he really regretted participating in an incest/gang rape and murder of an innocent woman then he would:
1. Confess all his crimes to the police, plead guilty to all the charges and insist on being imprisoned for them.
2. Give the full name and info of "Billy" and all the other participants of the crime to the police.
3. Remove himself from the planet so that he does not engage in further crimes against humanity.
4. Not make a song to glorify and profit off of this behaviour, and send other sickos the warped message that doing it is fine and dandy so long as ya pay the trivial consequence of it that is "be sure to fear the devil afterwards."
But of course, the "regret" is not sincere enough for any of that to happen. Instead, he makes one of the most obscene songs if not the most obscene songs ever in the history of mankind in order to try to turn a profit off of his crimes against humanity. Him having regret is rubbish.
