I think that's perfectly fine. 20 years is a long time. Hopefully that person feels remorseful for what they did. The best justice is when someone admits they were wrong and tries to make amends for their wrongdoing.

Making amends or admitting guilt doesn't seem like a prerequisite to obtain a 20 year or less sentence for murder, though.

I don't think it's justice for the victim or their families. Taking someone's life in a non-defense situation is a pretty big deal. I don't feel comfortable knowing people who murdered someone in cold blood would be let free again, particularly so soon.
