This is the sequel, so yes he still is that same guy who kidnapped and impregnated the girl locked in basement. They’re just trying to redeem the character in this movie. You must’ve not been paying attention the last half of first film. He accidentally killed girl in basement when she was trying to escape with the thieves and even tried to replace her with the girl thief and force her to have his child too. When she escaped she just took the money he had to get out of Detroit and not be bothered with the legal trouble since what she did was illegal as well.
