Prioritizing the one who became upright earlier in leading the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If there is a group of young men who were engaged in open sinfulness and disobedience, and then they became upright, is the one who became upright earlier prioritized in leading the prayer, just as the one who migrated earlier is prioritized?

Answer:
As far as I know, this is not mentioned in the hadiths. Yes. The most God-fearing one is prioritized.
