Paula Kurland

This is real hard for me.

Victims who want to get on with their lives.

Meeting the criminals who devastated their lives.

Why would anyone want to do this?

Well, each meeting happens only if both sides agree to it, and then only after months of preparation with a trained mediator.

Like psychologist David Derfler.

Derfler started the program.

He's the one who finally convinced Nobles to meet with Paula.

Hey, Jonathan.

Today, Jonathan Nobles, now 37, might not look or sound much like a killer.

I have to be accountable to myself saying, Jonathan, you're guilty.

Jonathan, you did this.

Jonathan, you were wrong.

Jonathan, it was a monstrous act.

Like many convicted murderers, he says he's found religion in prison.

And now, before he dies, he says he wants to do a little good by bringing Paula some peace.

That's one of those moral and spiritual obligations.

He's been working with David Derfler for months.

Derfler is helping Nobles figure out what to say when he has to look Paula in the eye.

I made a mistake.
