Comma before a that clause

Ex. The reasons are that the crime was already commited, that the offender repented, and that the victim is still suffering.

We are taught not to put a comma before a that clause. Is it okay to put a comma before a that clause like the above?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, but only because you have created a list. Those are serial commas.
