Funny, I got that also from Wikipedia (psychiatry is not my field of studies, more in biology and some genetics). In both, genetic and social can have their parts.

It doesn't make any sense that mutants are treated negatively. But it is. So mutants adapt. And again: Such past-evil characters will always leave a dark trail behind them, be despised by some characters and readers, and be the most susceptible to change side once again, but they can be good.
 * People change;
 * Even with bad genetics, the choice is up to people (Cf. Genesis);
 * Serving a prison sentence isn't necessarily part of a penance process: Acting good is enough.
