The only scoobies Adalind hurt is Hank (directly) and Wu (indirectly). She did nothing to Monroe and Rosalee.
Because my understanding of the word redemption is primarily biblical, it unfortunately doesn’t jive with how it applies to villainous characters on fictional shows who suddenly become good. To redeem/redemption means the act of saving or being saved from sin/erroneous behavior or the action of regaining or gaining possession of something in exchange for payment. So who is doing the saving/buying back something? Unless someone can explain to me what is meant by redemption for bad guys on TV shows. I know it's used all the time, I've come across it on plenty of shows where someone who was a villain either became one of the good guys or viewers hoped for the about turn. I guess by redemption you mean it's the individual saving themselves from sinning/doing wrong.
I think atonement is the more appropriate word to use which is to make amends for wrongdoing. Like how Adalind sold Diana but realised her error when she discovered she in fact loved her and thus did everything she could to hold on to her. The suppressant is a form of atonement (to buy Juliette a little more time as herself) even though it's payment for her own protection. Helping Nick and later Eve was atonement for the wrongs she did in the past. She helped Rosalee against Tony because Rosalee had shown her kindness around the time of Kelly's birth.
To be redeemed or to atone for past mistakes doesn't mean ostracising oneself from familiar people. It's about the individual's behavior in the present, doing a 180 by comparison to their past behavior. If Monroe stopped hanging with the people who enabled his bad behaviour, technically so did Adalind, Renard was one of the biggest influencer of Adalind's bad behaviour in S1. She no longer associates with him beyond their shared daughter. As for Nick and his friends, they were her victims as well as the people who did her wrong and they too had some atoning to do.
And I don't understand how wesen can cut themselves off from the wesen world, what does that mean exactly? There are wesen everywhere they look. This statement makes as much sense as humans cutting themselves from the world as we know it, living like hermits doesn't sound all that appealing. I'd understand if this statement was referring to Hank who's human and not a part of the wesen world, Juliette and Wu have been artificially assimilated so they are a part of this world too.
