There's a real balance to be maintained in the game.  That's the balance between martial prowess/juice and police attention.  Crimes don't go away unless you are cleared or serve jail time.  If you serve jail time, you probably just lost (do you know a lot of founders without a rap sheet long enough for multiple consecutive life sentences?), but there's a solution.  It's surrendering.

Talk to the police and give up before the bullets start firing.  Go to trial.  Win.  You've got a clean sheet.  It's not usually a great solution, you are out of service two months and if you lose you are fucked (short of having a really short rap sheet and getting a brief sentence).  Early in the game I want my founder to get arrested before they've commited ten murders and 200 petty crimes.  It's pretty easy to get off on that.  A mid level founder with a few points of law and excellent persuasion (which if you've got more than 4 followers I know you have) can get out pretty easy. 

You CAN train everyone in it, but I find it's better to have a sleeper too.  Having a good sleeper lawyer can save your hordes of faceless, uninteresting followers too.  Just remember, get arrested, not killed.

The morale of this story is - "go and get at least 4 children slaves and make them work for you 25/7 by playing street music while you are learning gymnastics and public policy in college"
