"Not only did the Biehls accept the men's apologies and urge their release, but they also hired two of the killers -- Peni and Nofemela -- to continue the good deeds and spread the ideals advocated by their late daughter. (Manqina was found guilty last year of raping a disabled teenager.)
Amy's mother Linda says of Peni, a guide and HIV/AIDS educator for the Amy Biehl Foundation: "He could be in prison, he could be dead. Instead, he's a father.
"He's a part of a very positive society in South Africa, raising a 2-year-old child to participate in a multiethnic, multigender society.
"To me, that's a great joy and happiness. I've been privileged to have that opportunity. "
