Perhaps, but if I were governor of Rigel Prime I'd be selling tickets for the chance to be one of the first settlers. Criminal would mess up that image some what. Its like universities and prisons. Both have cheap labour available, but the phd students both want to be there, and are paying to be there, thus universities are more profitable than prisons.
