Every character who flatlined had to make amends with the sins of their past. but William Baldwin's character never did. He never apologized to those women haunting him or admitted to taping them. It felt very unresolved
shareI think the haunting stopped after his wife found out and left him, because they were haunting him for being unfaithful and now that his relationship is over, there was no need to haunt him anymore.
But I do agree, they very much limited his character arc, it maybe was cut

Taping all those girls without their knowledge is a separate sin from being unfaithful to your partner
I agree that he paid for his sin. But so did Nelson when he got taken from his family and put in a boys home at age nine.
Forced contrition in some cases may lead to sincere atonement and reflection. I think Nelson was more resentful than sorrowful when he was sent to the Boys Home and that's why his punishment wasn't enough.

In the script there is a scene where Bacon's character tells him he has to apologize to the girls he taped. It was probably felt that it was unneeded since it an obvious conclusion.
